They were made in 308 and other calibres. Plunger ejector. They are heavy as the timber for the stock is Teak. Those stocks should not warp. Forget what magazines they use.
I've heard that the teak was sourced in Vietnam, which immediately blocked them from the American market. I know there was a brief attempt to import them here to Canada, but it fizzled. There was a lot of talk online about horrible barrels and non-existent customer service. In the modern firearms industry, if you can't crack the North American market, you've no hope of any mass production future.
Yes from what I have heard the Teak was from Vietnam and at end of time for them they were sourcing it from plantations in Africa. Don't know if that is true.
The original barrels, going by write ups weren't bad but not the best quality then they made a big thing of using Mini gun barrels left in Vietnam. The write ups were not faltering at all. Lucky to get 2 MOA with them. They didn't last long after this.
