The Savage Edge/Axis look just like most other rifles, albeit not my choice.

Not sure that I agree with your comment on the Steyr Aug, however, looks are purely subjective.

Re: SGC new lever rifle
This design would have the advantage of being ambi-dextrous -- so as a left-hander, I'd be tempted by one of these -- esp. if they were available in .45ACP...and I have a slot open for a .45 lever-action rifle, so here's hoping these go into production.Geek wrote: Agreed, why not just have a straight-pull?
Re: SGC new lever rifle
As a fellow left hander, it seems all my hobbies get slightly hobbled for being left-handed so more options are good.DavidRees wrote:This design would have the advantage of being ambi-dextrous -- so as a left-hander, I'd be tempted by one of these -- esp. if they were available in .45ACP...and I have a slot open for a .45 lever-action rifle, so here's hoping these go into production.Geek wrote: Agreed, why not just have a straight-pull?

Re: SGC new lever rifle
I did see a straight pull 9mm, again using glock mags, on one of the other stalls there...looked pretty good...

Re: SGC new lever rifle
That might be Calibre Innovations, they're making one and I think were planning to be there. I tried a prototype and it seemed ok, and I believe they've sold some now.Daryll wrote:I did see a straight pull 9mm, again using glock mags, on one of the other stalls there...looked pretty good...
Careful now/that sort of thing

I thought that charging handles on many straight-pulls can be either left or right hand operated?

Re: SGC new lever rifle
Yes and no.... most make the 223 with an ambi option (hell Hera arms even makes a replacement handle to replace t-charger that gives you left hand cocking), Calibre makes a dedicated left side charger, those are all 223 or 300 blk (once more calibre appears to offer more, 7.62x39, 458 socom and 50 beowulf in both sides possibly?). So yeah this fills that niche for lefties and pistol cals.Sixshot6 wrote:DavidRees wrote:Geek wrote:

Re: SGC new lever rifle
Good to see more innovations to comply with our ever dafter laws. I heard a rumour they'd be going for around £1900 though and i think that would put a fair few people off, especially considering the lever-release guns were £1200 when they first came out and offered more.
