Blimey....how much did that cut and shut job cost???
Looks like an argie folder, of which huge amounts were put into store after being taken off their previous owners for not being used in a responsible manner , even more were run over by 4 tonners and landies in a bid to clear the surplus. Check that stock gouge out, could be a part of history
um ..... allegedly its a new rifle with no Malvinas (or other) provenance
it was made as a dedicated .22lr rather than a conversion of a 7.62.
Hence its legal here. IIRC 7.62 semi is now sec 5 so even dropping the calibre to .22lr would leave the gun at its original unobtanium sec5 rating.
I beleive a job lot were made by Imbel for a South American army as training rifles. 20 were imported to Europe but the price was high then and the price for the following batch of 20 had gone up by so much they werent worth importing.
Its fairly rare as there are only 10 fixed and 10 folders unless someone knows different......
Gun control means using both hands.
