The UMOS, or Universal Manual Operating System is a novel retrofit kit for AR-15s that utilizes existing barrels, bolt carriers, and receivers, to convert a semi-automatic rifle into a pump-action centerfire wunderkind. As an added bonus, converting the rifle to manual operation has quite a few benefits. Manually operated rifles are not “banned” or “controlled” in most states, allowing you to have detachable magazines and other “naughty” bits You can create a ridiculously quite subsonic build Hunt with an “AR” in states that ban semi-autos. Have a familiar stroke for manual 3-gun divisions.

Compatible with carbine, mid-length, and full rifle barrels, the $350 kit itself weighs in at 21.5 ounces (which is not bad, considering it replaces the gas block, handguards, etc.) and consists of six parts, with six screws holding it together tightly: Barrel nut, Barrel bushing, Main tube, Operating rod, Pump Pump key.

Supposedly SAFE II in NYS proposes to ban pump action rifles.
Wonder if mods like this unit are why......

I hate to say it, but if I wanted a pump AR I would get the Troy version.

I like that this is a kit and you can return your rifle to an unneutered configuration.

Yes it must be products like that, can't possibly be the fact that NY politicians are douche bags

You haven't seen the various mentions about a proposed SAFE II floating around Albany? You think they were going to stop with SAFE I?

That's neat - kind of reminds me of some older paintball guns. I wonder how difficult it would be to home build something like that.

That's actually kinda neat.

Does it have a pump handle locking mechanism for when a live round is in battery (like with shotguns), or does it just rely on the user to not push the bolt rearward?

I was in Herb Philipson's in Oneida last week and they had a pump action AR and aa few with the compliant stocks. I threw up a little.

Not really. Gun grabbers are afraid of everything that goes bang.

They will go even after muzzle loaders. Just wait

Even tyrants allowed their subjects to have shotguns with bird shot because they realize those are militarily ineffective weapons
I would list what I think  their wet dream gun limits are, but since we know they monitor this site I wont give them any ideas.
You basically take NYC laws, mix in some of the foreign ban stuff and you'd be getting close for what I think they're aiming for......

I think the most unbannable weapon is a single shot, break-action, 20 ga shotgun.

They'll just ban any marginally effective ammo and regulate the shit out of birdshot.

That's the way it was in most parts of Europe.

It will be interesting to see if it ever leaves the country.

ITAR restrictions have basically handicapped smaller firearm companies
from developing international markets.

Are BUIS banned as well?

While this is a great idea. I can all but guarantee you that it would get you arrested in one or more of the ban states.  That fact that you could install a semi auto upper is going to cause problems.

Also Undefined is correct. They should have made put a rail in front so that you can add irons.

Interesting concept for sure, and good for the creative guy who developed this. (I won't get into the fact that people in some areas should not have to have this as their only AR option)

It's a reasonable enough price that people that want to try it out can give it a shot. Since it uses standard AR barrel assemblies, guys could use it for subsonic work, or a pump rifle in one of the big bore calibers. Or for working up loads that may not cycle a gas action, but can be manually operated just fine.

If it gets developed further, I wonder if it could incorporate the following:

- Hide the extension that connects the pump to the bolt carrier under a full length picatinny rail.
- Free float the pump action by supporting off of the barrel nut, like a typical free float tube.
- With the pump action supported from the upper receiver, use any typical gas block up front for sights, rails, etc.

I also wonder if there is any danger in the bolt being held closed only by spring pressure. When holding the pump handle, if you were operating the rifle quickly, could you pull the action out of battery?

Why not just design a model where the bolt locks back every round and you press a button to release it?
