From the folks that brought you The Chainsaw………
Part of me is appalled. But the intellignet part of me says that this is actually not a bad idea. Folks have been tacticooling leverguns for a while now, but this is the first one from the factory like that. If youre in a locale that prohibits a semi-auto this might be a good choice. It’s very much a ‘rule beater’ like Remington’s 7615P carbine.
The flash supressor is a nice touch since that means a fella with a sound supressor could thread it on and have absolutely zero noise from the action cycling after the round is fired. Not sure about the need for a telestock, but, as long as youre pimping it out…. I do like the rail option for a tactical light, though. Put on a regular stock, keep the rail for a light, keep the flash supressor, add a forward scope mount fo a ‘Scout’ scope and you’d have a handy little carbine.
I’d love to see this offered in a ‘Combo-Pak’ like their shotguns were. Get the 464 carbine and it comes iwth regular wood furniture and a thread protector so you can swap out the parts between a ‘tactical’ gun and a ‘hunting’ gun…..similar to the package they offered where you got a 500 shotgun with a hunting barrel and a short barrel, and a woodstock and a pistol grip.
