Thread: 9mm and rimfire bolt action

$2500-3000

You have to get some recognition this is a domestically built rifle. People need to get behind these things. We need "buy New Zealand made" and we need a domestic firearms industry, with export, if we are to hang on to our licenses long term. This is the one project, of all the stuff people have talked about, which gives us the most protection.

There will be some who are hard nosed and who will balk at that price for what is essentially a plinking rifle first and foremost, but lets be realistic. Good plinking rifles with abundant cheap ammo like 9mm are getting very hard to come by. Something comfy that has adjustable stock like ARs did is also hard to come by for a big guy. You don't need to sell one to everyone.

If I get buyback money it will be going on anything NZ made first.

I would give your early purchasers some recognition they are supporters of the project.
