New laws coming?

there should also be a 9mm straightpull or 2 coming out from some folks, but not sure how good a 9mm straightpull will be, not even sure how many people would even want one. not sure if there are better cals out there for straightpulls

Southern gun made loads of 9mm straight pull (and hand grip cocking), several guys at our club still use them, obviously they have a rotating bolt so not interchangeable with LR rifles.

Still not time for me to use the case of 3,000 9mm FMJs I have though.

Pah! When my SGC LR was about to be taken off me for being 'Section 5' when they first came out I did in 600rds in less than 2hrs!

If SGC put their old design back into production with the grip cocking option I'd definitely buy one. Straight pull only just doesn't interest me though.

Wasn't there a rumour about Bob doing something new but he dropped out of that practical show? I Even remember an additional in gunmart mentioning a new action that was unspecified in 9mm/45 ACP.....

Could someone explain the grip cocking thing me?

The pistol grip and trigger guard were hinged at the front and you pushed the grip forward until the heel of the grip would be almost facing the magazine. I don’t think I ever heard a good report in one though

Bob discontinued the 9mm first and then the 30 carbine version after. I got to shoot the latter and could barely operate it and needed the owners help to do so. I wouldn't wish them on my worst enemy.

What I'd really like to see is something like the Ruger 96/44 but in calibres like 9mm & .45 using Glock magazines. That gun had a really nice short lever throw but only a 4 round magazine in .44 mag so was too low to be useful for anything.
I think that years ago Guy Savage said he was converting some to .45ACP using grease gun mags. But even if he did make any back then it's pretty sure he won't be making any more.

First I'd heard of it and true and Guy had many things like the not a pump Ar....... I do know a builder in the states that has some ideas with under levers and getting them to be mag fed but he's currently busy with stuff that's making him money now and not needing to mess around sadly.

Found this picture of it in an old Target Sports magazine.

I wonder if there are any out there.
