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.

They have a newer model (Taipan EVO) with a polymer lower with a better bolt release setup. There’s also a shorter version in Australia that might not get here for a while - Taipan EVO Scout.
