It's a bolt action, and a semi-auto, WTH??

Saw on another site.

Pretty interesting concept. The Germans certainly came up with some interesting designs. I have a Walther 22 bolt action with a threaded barrel around here somewhere.

I know a lot of homebuilt ar15s that fall into this category.

 

[Bigtanker]

I have fired one of these. Sweet shooter. I have a thread about it somewhere.

Found it.

There was also a device that replaced the bolt in the 1903 Springfield which converted it to shoot a 30 cal pistol round in semi auto.

So, did dude ever show up at the range again to give you a second go-round?

I'm curious about how it operates.

No. I never did see him again. Although I'd love to get another look at it.

The Beretta Olimpia is similar. Oddly enough I just got an email from Classic Firearms advertising the Olimpia.

That's not a bad deal.

If my memory serves me correctly you can shut off the gas port on an FN-FAL and in essence do the same thing.

 

[Jaybird1980]

That's a pretty neat, and good looking rifle.

Yeah that's what I was thinking. If I hadn't just bought a CZ-83 (.32 acp) off of AIM, I'd probably go for it.

It was called the Pedersen Device, the receiver also has to have a milled out section on the left side of the chamber.

I decided to order one (the Beretta), but it's asking for an FFL. These are C&R eligible, so I'm waiting to hear back from customer service. Hopefully I hear something in the morning before they sell out.

You know those gill guns are like this also, you have the "Bolt" action available or you can go full Semi auto..

Man that's too cool, thanks for sharing!

Yep, got one I rescued and restored to original function a few years ago when my bil passed away. Stock was hosed up but a lot of tlc and some textured paint and she is up and running again. Steven's model 37 (?).

Isn't the Stevens mod 37 a bolt action shotgun?

I think the model 87 is their gill gun.

Could be, after I fixed it up it's been in the safe. Probably going on 3 years so don't trust my memory! What were we talking about?
