Call me sad if you like, but my favourite is the Straight pull L1A1 that I am buying very soon from a mate who is giving up full bore shooting... it may be "The right hand of the free world" but the left hand needs to work hard with all that cocking!!!
Cheers, John.
If it does, you can always have a larger cocking handle made.

Boring is exactly how Christel describes the AE, they are a very underestimated rifle Chuck and fine for the UK.

I was sorry to see mine go..I loved shooting it.....My mates in the US were really sad ttoo, thy wanted me to bring it over for them to shoot the bore out...Seems to have a following over there...haven't seen any for sale but I reckon they would be pricey, even on the second hand market...

COULD improve it a little - like, er, not having the sling on the wrong way round, maybe??

Ive got a TRG which is a fantastic bit of of kit is not the best looking of rifles. I would love a Remington M24still think its one of the best looking rifles made and by all accounts pretty accurate too.....

50/50 chance. Glad you spotted the deliberate mistake!
