Apologies - I've bought the Emag and not the Pmag. Therefore I can't confirm that the Pmag does fit.

Unlikely a PMAG would work unless it is the latest GEN3 examples. Pleased to hear EMAG works, wanted some for mine to go with the HK mags I already own.
Where did you get your EMAG from? I have only seen LANTAC and NWC advertise them in the UK.

It's just a one off prototype untill he gets the design passed, I don't think VZ would really publish details for a self jamming rifle.
That's the only downside to this, I fear that there ccould be a considerable delay if new design has to go to the home office for approval.

I don't think its a case of 'if', if this self ejects it's going to require extensive testing by the HO to prove it's not self loading.

Fedaykin,
I got the emags from the stand next to Caledonian - Scott just asked them for a couple. £20 each. I fitted the adapter this morning and only one fitted straight off the bat - the other needed a bit of fettling with a knife. I'm going to keep my eye out for some decent steel mags.

Apparently its passed HO forensic tests.
Its just awaiting being classified AFAIK.
What is it?
I want one in 6.5 Grendel.
Be interesting to see how it will go down for CSR!

This really p*** me off in regards to the HO, they make up silly classes for firearms as another way of being able to just ban that firearm when they choose. I remember reading an article from the Sportsman's Association regarding the classification of LBP and LBRs and subsequent restrictions on clubs buying they and other shooters using them, despite the fact that they legally were manually operated rifles.

I am with you on this John.
I reckon it will be Section 5 or prohibited due to being "specifically dangerous" or similar wording.
It is the trigger releasing the bolt that will p*** them off. It means that it will effectively fire as fast as you can pull the trigger.
