    Much anticipated at the time, Logun bottled it and changed the original pump action design to straight pull bolt action at the 11th hour due to pressure from 'the powers that be' - in doing so they produced a real duffer.

    In the end they couldn't give them away.

    The good news is if you want to tinker there are plenty of them sitting around in bits.

    This is my idea getting hold of one and I see that there is some dvds on that site on putting them back to the original designed gun "a pumper" there is one on you tube just thought I would ask the members if they have worked on any? also if any one would take the job on if I was to try and couldn't finish ?

    No one likes to take on a half finished job. If you are not confident, better to get someone else to do it from the outset.

    Actually, with a little bit of tinkering they make a great rifle, the .22 can be tweeked to 23fpe for FAC and they aren't that heavy one shoulder, in standerd form they are a bit agricultural, and owners try ramming the bolt foward ending up jamming pellets in to the barrel. The design of the rifle is very clever but they have 13 seals, it's the one in the barrel that usually fails.

    Loganator is the man to talk to about them.

    The last one I worked on, the guy who originally sold it to my friend brougt it back because it was so smooth and easy to load. That was 5yrs ago and he is still using it and it hasn’t let him down yet.
