Feets / Collection / My build Australia’s weird AR pump/straight-pull

Had this for a couple months and ran about five hundred rounds through it. The original pump handles are goofy big but removing the lower one really improves ergonomics and lets you shoot off a bag a bit easier. It also lets your hand do the whole c-clamp thing if that’s your style.

It’s personally hard to justify double the cost to upgrade to the newest thing hitting the market when this has been working great for me personally.

Weird random aussie thingy

Aussies down there can’t have semi auto anything except pistols. You can’t even have pump or semi auto shotguns. All semiautomatic centerfires, semiautomatic Rimfire with 10+ capacity, and all semi and pump shotguns above 5+ capacity are only available to professional pest controllers, dealers, police, etc.

In short, best thing they got to a real ar.

That is a bummer in a place where everything is trying to kill you.

Semi auto Rimfire below 10 rounds and pump/semi shotguns below 5 rounds are still restricted to “primary producers” aka farmers and they still have to justify why they need it 😵‍💫
