Thread: .223 Remington pump action owners

As the new act has been passed, all centre-fire pump action rifles with detachable magazines will become prohibited. I have designed a captive magazine system for the .223 Remingtons that will comply with the new law (10 shot, stripper clip loaded) and am trying to gauge interest to see if they are worth putting into production. They wont be cheap (probably $250-300) but will be quality manufacture, not involving any modification to the rifle but merely be a bolt-in item using existing screws. What is the level of interest?

I'm in, put me down for one.

If it works with the Troy I may be interested.

I woudl be interested to see if the Police allow it. They wouldn't allow straight pull AR guns, even if it was impossible to convert them to semi auto. Remember they make up the rules now to suit themselves.

I don't plan on asking them as it is none of their business! I am interested in manufacturing a product that complies with the new law. Years ago I designed a grip for L1A1 SLR's that complied with the law as it was written, and foolishly sent one sample to PNHQ for their comments. I still have their letter which accused me of not abiding by 'the spirit of the law' and then admitting that it complied with the statutory definition. Our laws are required to be written and understood in 'plain English', a subject I did quite well at in school. I don't write the laws but try and follow them to the letter (especially when they are written by the ill-informed)!

I will take one for my remington
Just finished setting it up. Pm me if you are still pursuing these as happy to pay in advance for the fixed mag
Would be great if it can take stripper clips
