What's The Big Fuss About Adler's?

[Oldbloke]

I love my Adler! The first 20 rounds where pretty rough but now its beautiful. I use it as a scrub gun and to shoot beer cans so i didn't want anything fancy or expensive and cant fault it for that. I've tried the Pardus and felt terrible, the lever action was weird kind of binds up the fingers and wrist.

faaark, they better be empty ones.

Faaarked if I know. All BS.

I think Noia started the ruckus just to sell a lot of Adlers.

The fuss is definitely from those on the outside looking in.
They are all pretty cheap and for what you pay you pretty much get what you pay for - most of them cost under $1000 and they resemble something worth under $1000.
As for what your preference will be:

Adler
Pro - Same kind of lever action as Marlin with the trigger guard following the lever forward
Pro - Has had time for the bugs to be ironed out
Pro - You'll be pissing the anti's off
Con - Longer throw
Con - Looks like a Marlin action............is nowhere near as smooth
Con - Very rattly

Pardus
Pro - Trigger guard stays in place, safety is very affirmative
Pro - Much shorter throw and very affirmative, with decent ejector it is possible to work the lever very slowly and still eject and load rounds without issue
Pro - Action is affirmative and able to take whatever you want to ram in there, 3 inch magnum shells, rifled slugs etc - very few rounds cause issues
Con - If you got one in the first batch there's about a 90% chance you'll need to ditch the ejector
Con - Quality control was woeful at the beginning
Con - Make sure the action is fully closed, it is possible to fire with the action still slightly open if you are careless

Defiantly empty of any delicious nectar and refilled with fish pee

The controversial Adler shotgun is a step closer to being allowed into Australia after the New South Wales Government falls into line to reclassify it as a category D weapon, the ABC understands.

Oldbloke....
the Adler 5+ is a prohibited import.
the Adler 5+ is legal in states - hence the mag mods.

If the Adler 5+ goes to Cat D;
there will be hundreds?? more Adler owners with CAT D modded firearms WITHOUT a cat D licence!!

What will follow will be 'random' inspections for EVERY adler owner in the country.

This wont end well.

and it is VERY VERY bad politics / policy / act by our representative, almost treasonous I would say, to PASS laws that automatically cause law abiding member of the community to became OUTLAWS... at the 'stroke of the pen' especially considering there is absolutely no reason what so ever for the law....

These mongrels refer to safety and the Martin Place outcome - that actually called for LESS regulation, apart from the fact that the pump action, unregistered, unlicensed, sawed off was used and NOT a legal registered licensed Adler...

Allowed in to Aus as a CAT D = no difference to an import ban, who would choose a lever over a semi???

[Oldbloke]

I just cut and pasted it off the. ABC web site. Haven't read it yet.

[<<Genesis93>>]

No worries oldbloke...
The media are scum.
Nothing more
Nothing less

That it will be 'allowed in' now.... what an effing joke...

[Oldbloke]

The story seams very general and leaves me unsure what the result is. There will be more information Monday I guess. Doesn't effect me but banning the 5 shot or making it a D is just stupid. Feel sorry for owners and all firearm users really.

Need a guillotine for the parliament.

Once again, the lesson is don't vote for the major parties.

Dont fall for the doesnt affect me thinking...
that was our 'downfall' with the buyback1, particularly the buyback2... when most shooters were NOT pistol shooters.

This time there would probably not be a buyback3....It will be a knock on the door "at a reasonable hour"....to check your Adler.

I neither have an Adler... but they restrict shotty levers, what about lever centrefires in HANDGUN rounds... Imagine how they will allow the tards to go nuts about hundreds of thousands of lever action kind of semi-auto lever action rifle weapons... chambered in concealable handgun rounds - yes, I can see that line emerging.. SO once theyve saved us from the lever shotties WHY would they stop there??

[<<Genesis93>>]

The story is if it was indeed the NSW PolMin holding up the show.... it would be a lot easier with him gone - replaced with a muppet/puppet.

If there remains only another 'recalcitrant' state.... I can imagine what WORDS would be exchanged in the meeting to 'convince' a change of heart....

Someone said it was scary once and every media outlet and politician jumped on the band wagon.

Correct. I worded it poorly. What I should have said is I don't own or want one.

I finally got my Adler last week. I must have gotten a freak one its band new, its very smooth when cycling it. Ejects great too.
The Gunshop I bought it from advised me to leave it as a 5 shot.
Modifying it to a 7 shot is perfectly legal for now.
If the 7 shot is reclassified as D class and you get caught with it kiss your firearms and license good by.
Those Spineless Pollies can change the rules anytime and I bet they won't notify any of the Adler owners of the changes.
Pollies will leave it up to the Boys in Blue to their dirty work.
Then brag about it in the Media, confiscating the firearms of Licensed Owners who unlawfully possessed a 7 Shot Adler.
A cheap form of buy back and giving bad publicity for the Legit Gun Owners.
I wouldn't put it past that 2 faced Turnbull using our misfortune to make himself Popular and take the focus of his inability in Governing the Country.........
All I can say is Adler Owners be careful leave them as 5 shots, it's the Legit Gun Owners reputation The Canberra Rats want to tarnish.
