I see what you did there

thanks @40mm I really just designed it and it was also based on the back of the rem 700.
i have other projects going on, like the one attached. centerfire action, full bolt.
cheers

interesting concept guys. but isn't it a bit slower to cycle rounds? in my idea, you are going to cycle rounds holding the wheel with your thumb and pointing finger. correct if i'm wrong.

this is another project i also started and i've designed the whole thing. also 22LR. bit rough still.
cheers

Yeah, it's really for a pistol, bolt operated by left hand. Your drawing just reminded me of the Welrod, and then @gundoc suddenly posted that scary picture of stuff he's likely making for the NZ SAS. (<:

Reflecting on cycling bolt with left hand, if a rifle is light enough to be held single handed (thinking: good pistol grip) a port side bolt handle could speed up things, particularly on a short action.

some more images here. forgot again to say that it's made out of 4140 for action and 4340 for bolt and lugs. shroud and handle are SS.

Very Nice ,

However , if you are after a bolt action using 9mm , it would be maybe easier to just import , Rock Island Armoury rifle in 22TCM , & re-barrel to 9mm

thanks cordite. what cnc machining doesn't do these days, hey!?

here is the other side of the receiver...

some more

rock island in the usa makes 22tcm and novem does a 9mm convertion it. i got this idea from these guys.
but it doesn't make sense to make a 9mm single shot action and i have a design to use the 9's with 1911 mags.

As soon as I saw this action I thought .22TCM.. I love a small bolt action repeater in that cal

guys, thanks for all words. what do you think about having a bolt action receiver made using pistol calibers for the hunting/plinking/shooting market? really a wide question. with a right price, do you think any of you would be interested?
cheers

very nice work ill test a left handed one out for you free of charge
