Very cool I wish there was a 308/7.62 NATO variant probably better for hunting
Hi Nikora, we do plan to provide other caliber options at some point in the future. Some caliber’s will be accessible through an upper receiver swap (300BLK, 22LR), but the .308 requires it’s own platform. Rest assured we hope to make a .308 UTAS available in the future.
I love the sound of that i was also looking for one in the 308 range due to how well it works out on the hunt…
What Barrel length is the 300BLK upper come in
I would also be very interested in a 308 version of this rifle..
Is the charging handle left side only? or can this be moved to right side also like some other straight pulls?
A standard AR charging handle can be attached, but other than that, no, cannot be shifted to right side.
What ammo would you recommend to use in the .223?
This looks amazing do you guy’s plan on making other types of Straight pull rifles in the future like the AK74 ?
We like to consider all the different options there may be!
I’ve placed an order for one of this rifle, plus the PMAG 30/10 magazine and can hardly wait to get it. I’m so excited. Like a child before Christmas.
What calibre conversions are available? Just the 22lr and 300 blk out? Cheers
Hi Matt, for this particular platform, yes.
is the 22lr conversion bolt of a cmmg type? is it included in the price?
Yes, the 22LR bolt will be in cmmg type.
It would be good if they have more barrel length options, like 18″ or 20″
Hi Steve, we hope to make some different barrels available. But we cannot at this stage promise anything.
How would you change it to a semi automatic 22lr
Hi, Campbell. There will be 22lr conversion bolts available in the future to make this possible.
do you have a 300blk complete for sale ?
Morning. Is the barrel 5.56 or. 223 or wydle. It matters due to the ammo I have.
From what i gather this is a Bolt action rifle correct?
Hi Joel,
A straight pull action is a little different but yeah in a sense it is manually operated as with a bolt action.
