I'm sure a member on here had one and that it was mentioned on Suffolk rifle's facebook page in the past. I don't remember the exact member here, but someone will step forward and say who got what. But I'm certain. I'm sure they either went for under 2 grand or over it.

I think it's huntervixen.

Yeah it's him. Will he share his finding's with us or will that not happen?

He's always been friendly in the past, what are you after?

I don't want to buy one but now we're talking about them I'm curious about how it works as I heard some problems with the imbel 22s.

One of the members of my club has a folding stock Imbel, it's a carbine if I remember right.Another has a lovely FAL with wood furniture, that shoots like a dream*

*Even though it isn't made from recycled T-34s' or anointed with vodka I do quite like it!.

I'd be surprised if he didn't chime in when he sees this thread. I believe the one he's got is unique because Suffolk Rifles only made one, which is a shame because I would have bought one.

Ah, the "Right arm of the free World". My buddy used to carry one in SA.
I think it's a classic firearm, that's relatively rare. Hence prices will only go one way.

I'd love one, but 3k would take some explaining to Mrs Zen!

Here's Mr Hickok enjoying one very much:

Yes only one made, this is a kit not a complete rifle, barrel and working parts fit inside your 7.62 SP rifle so you have a .22rf semi auto..

Not sure he will see this thread very busy with work at the moment. I was present when the kit was proofed it's a work of art. I had my name down for one, sad now will not get made.

Last report was worked like a dream.....

Aah....that caught my eye back in the summer, and for a while was I toying with the idea of filling my .22RF slot with that, but that idea went out of the window when I visited and I laid my eyes on the minter of a 4T Richard instead showed me
