    So... Where's the review of it then?
    What kind of performance are you getting out of it?

    I was at a sale recently where they this up for sale, for the lucky holder of masses of correct paperwork. Made around £950 I believe.

    Nice to see one in general ownership. I hope it works well for you. All the questions on originality should be answerable in the retro section of AR15.com.

    You might like one of these for your local range? They aren't bad, although not as well made as many of their other products. Decent ones come up at under £200 sometimes. Good fun for the price, particularly with what the current pot-metal versions come in at.

    That's what I had, great fun but not that accurate over 40 yards

    Seems like a lot of work to cycle it, really screws your shooting position.

    It sure does. Problem is im right handed, but shoot left handed due to dominant eye and the cocking handle is the early triangle type not the the two finger slotted one, if my left hand was the same strength it would be no problem. Not going to put a side cocking thingy on it as I want to keep it pure. It is what it is , thanks for watching

    Not too shabby, I reckon you'll be able to tighten that up a little with practice. Pulled this off at 100 yds with my Bushmaster M4A3.
