Some of you may remember my thread about M1917 based hunting rifles that my friend who is also a gunsmith was considering producing, his financial situation has changed and that has been put on the back burner for now. However, we still often discuss it and we have some new product ideas that I would like to run by you gentlemen.
M1917 Based Guide Rifles
Most folks who frequents gun forums knows what guide gun is, a big bore, short-barreled manual action rifle for defense against dangerous game in places like Alaska. Our take on the guide gun is our M1917 Based Guide's Rifle.
Features:
-Stainless Steel Cold Hammer Forged Barrel and forged action for extreme durability. Brushed for a low profile (does not shine or glint).
-Blued ghost ring sights with three dot tritium inserts.
-Scout mount for optics.
-Modified Bell and Carlson synthetic stock with gray and black Spiderweb™ pattern. Pachmayr recoil pad.
-16" Barrel with integrated advanced compensator which directs muzzle blast safely away from the shooter, reduces flash, and felt recoil.
-Polymer Detachable Box Magazine! Up to 10 round capacity.
-Legendary Enfield Cock-on-Closing mechanism w/ massive Mauser claw extractor that enables very positive case extraction and a higher RoF than other bolt action systems. The bolt action fighting rifle mechanism taken to its logical, ultimate, conclusion.
-Oversized, rubberized, bolt handle for high stress operation.
-Hand built in Texas, USA. Test fired for reliability and accuracy, approved by a master gunsmith.
-Calibers: .45-70 Gov't, .350 Remington, .450 Marlin (all of which can be loaded with spire point bullet to take advantage of the box mags) Any caliber within reason can be requested.
-Trigger pull: 6 to 2.5 pounds.
-Weight: 7 pounds.
-Includes 4 magazines, locking hard case with a full metal exterior.
Price: $1,760 as configured.
What do you think of this rifle? Especially interested in hearing from people who actually need to carry a Guide Rifle.
