Mmmmmmm yeah. I'd love to see that in that leaver release action, then we talk. Before Varney Carron I'd think about it, but now I am anticipating that action in AR style configuration. Hope it happens.

I believe I saw just that on YouTube recently, reviewed by a pommy bloke, same action as the Verney but AR config. I don't have time to look it up right now but from memory it was Southern gun co straight pull or something along those lines..

Oh, they are very common in most calibers... Just not here. I want them here.

Edited above post after your reply.

Yeah I haven't heard of them here, I don't think they'll be far off though, they are probably testing the waters with the more tame looking Verney first......

Well with the WFA1 setting the precedent for the AR style being aloud, the Vernon setting the precedent that lever release is Cat B and now if they can actually get this (ugly colored) AR in, we’ve got all the pieces we need to get a lever release AR.

Ain’t nobody wasting 4K on this, now if it wasn’t lever release maybe but even then drop it down to 2k and you’ve got the next Adler Of rifles

Saw the Riverman at my local today, didn't look too bad in the flesh apart from the colour scheme. Apparently they were banned in NSW as of today due to appearance laws......

If it’s banned in NSW that’s funny as the colour scheme was so it could be NSW forestry approved colours.

$4k for something that if you have any issue your stuck exporting and importing it back to get it fixed, or having a local gunsmith tinker around with it.

Looks like doggy do do...

The reviews on the straight lever release shotties from Turkey are less than glowing. Apparantly a lot of plastic on them and just watching the videos they looked flimsy. Can't see them being very durable...

$4k for a pink, straight pull AR style rifle that will probably get banned for sale in at least one state.

Good God, what hell has our gun legislation brought upon us?
