Spent 2 years with one.

Did not like where the laser is but it was a nice rifle overall.

Really neat item for your collection, BTW!

Feels about the same as a Steyr AUG- slightly plasticy mush at about 8 pounds at a guess.

I don't mind the AUG trigger pull so it feels fine to me.

Let me know if you guys would like to see a video, and anything in specific you would like me to cover. If work is "slow" tomorrow I will see about getting a video done up and posted on youtube on the Manticore Arms channel.

We actually have a couple of interesting guns in our collection and I am thinking I might do some videos on them, maybe do some interviews and discussions with other people in the industry who do design, and maybe even some personal thoughts on design theory of firearms and the like.

I should be out at the range nect Friday to get some shooting footage

I’d sure like to see a video of your new bullpup. Please field strip and give a discription on the optic!

Posted: 11/30/2018 12:01:10 PM EDT

Looks like a Bushmaster AUG G36...

[#16]

I like!

I'd be interested in seeing pictures of it field stripped. As in, I'm curious about the component design.

Forgot, is that a proprietary mag or does it use STANAG?

Proprietary mags, but they are pretty obviously based of AUG mags...some slight plastic welding and reforming of the tab and I suspect an AUG mag might be able to work in it (I have 5 mags so no worries right now)

There is an exceedingly rare version called the SAR-21M That takes AR-15 mags. I know where one is, but it is not for sale, at least not right now, and I suspect when it is it will go for BIG bucks!

looks awesome! Make a video with a break down and some shooting!

Posted: 11/30/2018 3:22:48 PM EDT

[#21]

Do you adjust the laser through the small round indentation? Looks like a two-pin tool type set up?

ETA: I'm assuming windage on the side and a similar setup on the bottom for elevation?

Also, I don't see a selector so is it a "pull through" auto selector like the AUG?

Safety is a cross-bolt in the front of the trigger guard.
Firing mode selector is a cross-bolt between the butt an the magwell...

You should see if the forgotten weapon guy would like to do a video on those like he does with the auction house or the various other places he’s gone.

Definitely would like the 1.5x optic version for reasons( don’t even care for the full auto) I wish I could play with the rail options but at that modular level and ergo, a x95/tarvor would be same.

Reverse engineered Manticore SAR-21 when?

I remember we had a member here that was a salesman for the company back in the 80s trying get the Ultimax sold as a LMG and part of it was he had a sample SAR-21.

I got to hold and shoot one back in 2012 while in Singapore for work. It was actually blanks but still fun to shoot.
Neat gun. They have a thing called Army Days and u got to see and touch all their Military gear. Having been in the Marine Corps I always enjoy seeing other countries offerings.

Ooh........any chance of you doing a Carroll Shelby/ AC Cobra kinda thing with these? Importing furniture and such parts as allowed, and finishing here? ( given the difference between cars & guns.....)
pipe dream?
I wonder what the chance is of getting the Prez to remove the 89 import ban exec. order.....

It is not possible to import parts for these as far as I know. At this point it would be easier to reverse engineer and build here in the USA (and no, I am not saying we are doing that...)
