Re: Have any memebers actually bought one? RX Helix

G'Day Fella's,

Further to the Straight Pull rifle theme, I also see, that www.herrons.com.au are the agents for the Finnish made Lynx range of center fire rifles.
See www.lynxrifles.com/eng/ for more info!
This includes the Lynx 94 (Hunter & Target), which is a Straight Pull design but appears to have a handle off a Garden Spade to grab hold of, to actuate the bolt!
Click on "Pictures", for a good view of how these rifles lock-up!
Given this, it seems to be quite a simple (Read; minimal amount of parts, which = Good!), mechanical design and the fact that it, I assume was designed and made in Finland, it will probably be a practical and usable rifle.

Edited by Homer;
Lynx Rifles, appears to be a small enterprise and also make a Three Lug (Model X.O & X.X.O) Turn Bolt, rifle design in some Big Boomers! And if what we are shown is correct, there appears to be a lot of hand work conducted by the Lynx staff, in assembling and "Finnishing" (Pun Intended), these firearms!

Real Nice!!!

FYI, the Retail Price for the Lynx 94 Hunter, would be in the $5500.00+ AUD range, for the Standard model, and no price available, for the XO and XXO models, at present!

Hope that helps

Doh!
Homer
