The UK's Finest Independent Forum for Shooters and Gun Owners. Est 2010.

Im interested in what Straight pull Rifles are out there in the UK that aren't AR15s or AK variants. It would be great to see what you shoot if you do have one.

I have an M1 Garand and an M1 Carbine.

Steyr AUG's are available (I don't have one, but they're fun if you like bullpups and their triggers :-)

I had one for a few years, good fun, you just need to learn to live with the trigger pull, which wasn't expected to be "sniper grade" I used it regularly to 600 yds and was happy to hold the black, which it did reliably, I have also shot a straight pull SLR, also good fun, I would love a straight pull STGw57, but as they are roller delayed blowback rifles I won't hold my breath I will stick with the semi autos

I have an L98 (straight pull SA80 like those previously used by cadets ) in 5.56 NATO

The trigger feels like you're dragging a grand piano across Brighton beach.

My K31 Straight Pull is far more civilised.

What about the new Savage? Looks good and will be the right price.

I've got an AUG, and had an L1A1.

The AUG was 2nd hand (could even be Kenny's!), and the L1A1 was a POS that I was never happy with, and it turned out to have been made by a dodgy gunsmith.. I got rid of it sharpish..

I love my AUG...

Blaser!
