I don't know if they are still around but Rubi (made in some South American country, can't recall where) used to make a copy of one of the Gevarm versions that was also fired from an open breech and could be converted to full auto easily, apparently, so I'm told.
The Rubi Extra 22RF rifles were made in Argentina and were a poor copy of the Gevarm. They often failed to eject the empty cases leading to regular jams.
Voere made a semi auto 22RF, Model 0014, that fired from an open bolt too but didn't seem very common or may have been banned in some countries like the Gevarm was.
Yes, Argentina, that's right.
They didn't have an extractor, but the one I saw ran good - the ejector pelted the cases out high and right, and effing hot. An aftermarket high-capacity magazine did have issues delivering the ammo quickly into the breech when in naughty mode but didn't jam up as such. Did I mention how hot the ejected cases were?
