Come on Rod, fess up. The questions you get asked most about the Blasser is 1) What the F! are you gay or something? 2)Have you gone insane? Well we all know you were dropped on your head as a baby so that answers question No2.


On a serious note,that answer the top loading question. Bit slow to load a full mag. A mag change would be quicker if a full mag was needed.

Can you just drop one cartridge onto the follower and close the bolt or wont it feed from this position?

G’day Greg,

Firstly....let me set a few things straight. I was never dropped as a baby and I’ve never suffered a brain injury. (Fuck off idiot icon needed and ROFL)

Now as to the loading of the magazine in the video....it took a bit longer than normal as it was done single handed. The other hand held the camera.

You can single load the R8 by placing a cartridge directly into the chamber. However, you can’t just drop a cartridge onto the “follower “ and expect it to feed.

I’ve owned my R8 for over 4 years now, with 4 different barrels (223, 308, 30/06 and 9.3x62) and I’ve never had a failure to feed/jam.

Cheers

MY question is what is gonna happen to Blazer with the closing of SIG? Orphan guns scare me, orphan guns that cost as much as a Blazer terrify me.

I shoot Encores, so Im familiar with the concept of switch barrel guns; but Ive never traveled with a Encore (and spare barrels and ammo), where I wouldnt have traveled with a second full gun.

G’day Greg,

Can you do me a favour and come and shoot 5 stand with me over the weekend? I’m dead set sick of coming last in the competition. You’ve no idea how much good a second last placing will do for my self esteem.

G’day mate....

As to the second part of your post.... I totally agree. If I had to travel with an encore I’d also pack a decent rifle too!

Cheers Rod

Hahahahaha If i had spent that much on a rifle from a company that went out of business, Id be jealous too.

Bro I liked the Blazer. I probably would have bought one sometime. Its a shame SIG went tits up and took Blazer with it.

Uummm.......I’ll admit defeat.

Drafting a logical response to your argument/ position is beyond me.

One would need a sense of humour to use a Blaser.

BTW I don't think the Blaser factory is being closed at all. As the SIG one being closed is elsewhere and Blaser is also made by a different group company. Unless someone has an artilce or reference suggesting it is different.

So Blasers can continue to annoy idiots for years to come.
