Re: Newly USA made, Martini rifles

If the action is any good...properly heat treated, well-tempered springs, etc, I bet we will see a few pop up as custom projects in the future.

But really, the presentation is poorly marketed and as others have mentioned, looks like a Bubba sporterized hack job.

I myself would prefer a .30-40 but I think most or at least a lot would prefer the .303. I mean, it is a classic Martini chambering. It's like somebody reissued the Model 94 Winchester and ignored the .30-30 and instead, chambered it in .32 Winchester Special.

This one will float around for a while and then sort of unceremoniously die off, I think, unless the company redesigns the furniture, adds the relevant Martini-fan caliber, and drops the price by...a lot.

The latter, as I and others have mentioned, may not be possible due to startup and general manufacturing costs, so this one looks like an unfortunate sinker to me.

But it does have so much potential!
