Quote: To operate, the entire barrel in-line assembly is simply pushed forward, which unlocks the gun and frees the chamber for the next cartridge from the magazine. Pulling back the entire barrel in-line assembly feeds the next round from the magazine, closes and locks the rifle for immediate firing. You are now ready for quick follow up shots. The design of the in-line system with its symmetric cocking slide ensures that the SEMPRIO repeater can be used by both right and left-handed shooters.
What a pain in the arse ... needing to move the whole barrel to rack a slide.... some of these modern EU designs are so ridiculous. Whole of barrel pumps, integrated removable triggers and magazines... removable magazines tucked away in difficult to access places inside a slide forend ...
The Verney-Carron designs on the other hand are good. The pump action ie "inline" is a smaller, lighter slide than usual, not the whole forend. And the impact rifl e is a good alternative if semi autos are not legal.
