UK Legal Lever Action AR-15?

[carnaby]

Does anyone have a link to a picture of the UK legal AR-15 style lever action rifle? I can't find it anywhere. I saw it about a month ago and am trying to locate it again.

Somebody's got to remember this thing???

Beuler?

As far as I know, there is no possible such animal as a AR-15 (seminauto, magazine fed) lever action.

 

[carnaby]

There is! I've seen it. It is very cool. Except, of course, it is no longer semi-auto. It is a lever action in which the lever action chambers each round. That's what makes it UK legal.

Are you talking about the pump action AR-15? I've never thought about the possibility of a lever action AR-15; it would be rather difficult to make.

I've never thought about the possibility of a lever action AR-15; it would be rather difficult to make.

Especially since the lever and the magazine would have to occupy the same space at the same time.

The pistol grip is the handle of the lever action. It's really quite neat.

there are types where the charging handle is adapted in various ways to make it easier to work for manual operation. http://www.southern-gun.co.uk/displayproducts.php?catid=1
There are also ones which have a slot milled in the side of the upper for a FAL-type charging handle.

 

[carnaby]

Yep, I saw those. Someone had a picture of a version in which the pistol grip is the handle of the lever. It was pretty cool. I can't find that picture anywhere.

 

[rbernie]

Well, I've Google the snot outta any possible permutation of words to try and run this to ground and I've nto found a single reference anywhere to such a beast....

I'm not sure that's it. I thought the one I looked at used the pistol grip (the one at the trigger) to cycle the action. ???

 

[Third_Rail]

That's the only one I found as well... and it seems that the "lever" is just a pump design.

Seems to be a pump to me. There are another version out a while ago sold in America, only saw pics, never the actual gun. The front grip worked like the slide on a shotgun, looked similar (front grip) also.

 

[Third_Rail]

Ohen, same thing was done to a few AKs, I believe.

Argh, it was on ar15.com, and I originally found the link at saysuncle.com, uncle's link is still there, but the ar15 link is dead. Arrrgh!
