At over $500.00 Im not remotely interested. $350.00 I might actually look at one. Remarkably, they will probably sell a boatload of them. Link to comment

Cant see crap anymore and just feel like it is wrong to put a scope on a lever gun. Was thinking the bolt 77/357... but this looks neet. I know the old Ruger PC's wernt that accurate and the Mini 14 was horrible. I googled about this gun. U-Tube video reviews showed very good accuracy and very decent trigger pull. I'm looking real hard at this one. Sheels has them on back order. thinking $550. Link to comment
Joe4d Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 10mm would be awesome,,, put it in deer gun territory Link to comment
wyliearms Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I am with you guys on the light gun issue. I don't get it. For some I guess it works but keep mine in the 6 ballpark. I played with one of these at the show the other day. Its a pretty neat setup. It did feel heavy for what it is but like others mentioned, its about the same as other PCC's. The takedown locks really well. It is a similar design to the 10/22. I thought it would be a neat PCCI Steel Challenge gun but I'm not sure I would run it in Open if I had a choice. Once people start making aftermarket parts for it, it may pick up. It would be neat to see Magpul make some furniture for it and include a pistol grip and a adjustable stock. Link to comment
daytona955i Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 (edited) I'm in NY, so this is great for me. However, the mag release is in a strange position. I understand why, especially with adaptable mag wells, the button needs to be in front of the magazine like in the handguns the mags are made for. In lieu of an aftermarket solution, I'm thinking if you put the mags on your strong side, you could pull your weak hand back for the release while you're getting the magazine, then hit the bolt with your strong hand. Push the gun out into position with your weak hand then grab the grip with your strong and get back to work. Kind of like a Miculek revolver reload. Need to pick one up and mess with it.

Garmil Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Hopefully some aftermarket company makes an add on release. Like a bad lever maybe come off the button and extend back to inside the front of the trigger guard. Link to comment
MurdocJenkins Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 I just picked up one of these last Sunday for $529. It didn't even make it on to the rack at the store. I have shot about 150rds through it so far. The factory irons are pretty accurate (I only tested out to 50yds) I will be adding a red dot soon. I am hoping to use this for PCC this spring. I could see how the mag release could be awkward for speed reloads. I am going to run it and see what it will do. Link to comment

Nearly EVERY classifier hinges on the speed of your reload. Link to comment
aci Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 I'm really excited for this at it's price point. I've been lusting after a 9mm AR for a long time, but just couldn't pull the trigger on one for the price. Also all the talk about problems people have with lower priced AR types. Either way, for the price if it's not all that great it'll still be fun for camping. Link to comment
Herb Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Per latest Amer. Rifleman, accuracy is sub 2" at 500 yds. Link to comment

petrojc Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 I'm hoping some aftermarket stocks will be coming out soon. I have an axiom on my 10/22 steel challenge gun, and I love that stock. There is so much potential if the aftermarket jumps in. Link to comment
blaster113 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Fantasizing about one in 10mm... Link to comment
petrojc Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 It will be interesting to see if they made the action long enough for 10mm and 45. Wouldn't it be great to be able to change the bolt, pop off one barrel and put on another one in a different caliber? I wonder if they were thinking forward when they designed it... Link to comment

The video above shows that the actual bolt face is removable so I think they were. Link to comment

They have mentioned that more calibers will be available in the future, but I haven't heard anything other than rumors on what those calibers will be. Link to comment

Need a large enough magazine to accomodate this as well. Wondering if any current owners could look at the magwell design and see if looks like it could accommodate something like a Glock 21 sized mag or if it’s limited to a “small mag” type of 9/40 magazine?

Seems like it would be easy enough to release another magwell if they did a large-frame conversion. Link to comment
dapribek Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 My buddy and I saw one at our local gun shop. Feels like a well made gun and trigger isn’t bad at all. My friend placed an order right away. The store can’t keep them in stock! Link to comment
