Rifles

[HKUriah]

I've seen a fellow using one of those .351's at a Wild Bunch match here in New England a couple of times.  He was using a lead bullet and had a muzzle velocity to SASS stardards for "main match rifles" so yeah, low power loads work.  Wish I could remember who it was that had the thing!


On another note, would those reproduction Sterlings that are on the market be okay?  They are a pre 1950 design, and shoot the 9mm.   I think they'd be a fun alternative to the Thompson.

Of course, even if they are okay, I can't buy one...

Are converted pistols with shoulder stock and long barrel allowed for the "rifle" portion?
like this?

AFAIK reading the rules it would be legal and very interesting, as would a Mauser C96 or Artillery Luger with shoulder stock.

Speaking of the UK, here's my English self loader-

That would be an SLR in British Army nomenclature. Differs from the C1A1's I used in the Canadian Army in a few minor respects:
- a body cover with a clip loading device built in
- a bakelite carrying handle
- the cocking handle folded
- the rear sight was a folding aperture with multiple apertures

    And your handguards didn't have quite as many holes in them, did they? The English and Australian guns do have a folding cocking handle

   The Canadian guns are cool, I especially like the American black walnut used on them. Canadian Govt. took care of most of them so it was hard to get parts at a reasonable price to build a good Canadian rifle.
