There's no doubt they're superbly made and very accurate - but for me, they're far too shiny, the barrel is too long, the removeable magazine is a real bloody nuisance and the safety catch located inside the trigger guard is not only a bad idea, it's a bloody dangerous idea. - One needs to think about the lowest (or dumbest) common denominator with these kind of things. Not everyone knows what they're doing with a rifle and not everyone has perfectly safe gun handling techniques. A safety catch so close to the trigger is sooner or later going to mean that someone, somewhere will have an A/D....... Possibly with disterous consequences.

Yup, I agree completely, Sauer rifles are very well made but some of the design should have been changed. Compared to many of the "factory made" rifles I think Sauer and Heym are alright. No, I won't even comment the balster r-93

Currently I own one modern push feed, all other rifles are of mauser design. My absolute favourites are ZG-47, Brno m-21 and m-22
