Verney-Carron Speedline

gas operated piston like an SLR

[<<Genesis93>>]

<<Genesis93>>, what I am really saying is that I want a semi 22LR

How 'much' do you want a semi? do you REALLY want one, like really rooly??

[juststarting]

Not enough to change occupations or become a farmer, Genes... But yeah, 22LR semi auto would be fantastic to have.

You can get one on a collectors licence an shoot it maybe twice a year. Better than nothing for the meantime.

[Heckler303]

The day semi auto rimfires are available on cat A or they open Cat C to sporting shooters, my money is down for a 10/22 and one of the special kits they make for them.

Like a bunny-destroying MG42...

[thegooch]

If it comes as a shotty, for sure getting one.

[Gun-nut]

A bit of an update for you folks:

Read the comments, it's explained which states its legal in, which ones it isn't and which ones are still considering it.

what club is that threw? mad keen to on getting my collectors license doesnt bother me too much if i can only shoot it at club approved days or very rarely, just enjoy owning interesting firearms. love to own a few more of john brownings earlier designs, SA22lr and along those lines but basically cat a and b really limits you...

Shooting my gun twice a year under supervision, ROFL, f*ck that. Depressing. I want to be able to take it out whenever I want wherever I want. Although, there are few pistols I'd like to get purely as a collector. But shootable stuff, nah, I rather have freedom and less boom, then lots of boom and blueballs.

Although, this is a good starting point for a new Collectors thread.

as the small mexican girl on the taco add says, "why not both"
any information relating to collecting clubs and what you can and cant do would be good though?

[juststarting]

Now I am considering both, thanks to you! Re info - no idea, will start a thread in a bit for VIC. Let's keep this one on topic.

On the speed line... personally I reckon it's damn ugly. But that's just my taste. It's sako money, or more, but not as pretty as my sakos.

From practical point of view I'd love one as a pig gun with a red dot but it's got too much shiny walnut for me to really want to drag it through the scrub. Be great if they made a synthetic though, and possibly in something a bit smaller than 30-06.

[on_one_wheel]

Agreed... very ugly firearm that's too flashy to knock around with .... looks like a poofy frog hunters firearm.

Id be interested in that action in a 12 gauge if it looked like the Remington 1100 and a .22 lr if it looked like a 10/22 synthetic / stainless.

[Gun-nut]

I agree the rifle looks...meh, something about the sights. But the shottie on the other hand looks the goods.

Wonder if the shotty barrels are interchangeable 20" sluganator

[AusTac]

sluganator

Now your talking my language!

[Gun-nut]

Either way, us fellas in Vic have to wait til the 9th of May to wait for the 'verdict' on this firearm.

Classified as Cat B

[<<Genesis93>>]

Bring on the AR10 with release lever.....

[juststarting]

In 9mm

[WatchyShooter]

In 9mm

Calling SGC
But seriously this is a really good precident for other lever actions and the like

[bladeracer]

So, now that it's Cat B, does anybody actually want it?

[juststarting]

I want it. I want the shotgun version of it.

Whats SGC?

Re precident. Yep, absolutely. Common freaking sense... Hopefully there will be more leaver release rifles now. I'd like one. Definitely in 12ga. And in 223, 22LR and 308. Unfortunately I am not invested in 30-06 to want one. And I have different expections of what I'd like from 300wm. But, anything 308 and smaller, I'd love it. Also seems to be on the heavier side. I don't like that for hunting.

[bladeracer]

I want it. I want the shotgun version of it.

Even at those prices?

[juststarting]

Well, considering what a decent shotgun costs, $2500 is not that much for a shotgun. The 3k upwards for centrefire I don't think I would like.

Does this qualify as a "decent" shotgun though?

To me it's just over-priced gimmickry, I can find better things to throw my money at

[juststarting]

Mee too. I still want one.
