Finally, a new AR innovation.

[Blue Heeler]

I applaud their efforts to develop something “new” but believe … at least to me … it’s a solution to a non existent problem.

^^ Pretty much how I feel. Not for me but I'm all for new products coming to market.

Do People struggle to clear stoppages in AR15s and AR10s? Or struggle to load them from an open bolt or even closed?

Ken did...

There's no going back-

Why, I've even heard rumors that some very enterprising young gunsmiths in distant parts of the World have developed all natural guns of 'sustainable' materials that are so light they can float-

I’m not against new technology or innovation as long as it’s an improvement.

1. Use a shotgun instead. 2. Use an AK. 3. Put a collapsible charging handle on both sides like B&T does. 4. Claim bankruptcy.

My friend and I designed one of these eight or nine years ago. We didn’t think there was enough market so we let the idea go.

This is just the fudd version of side charging.

I think they are selling very well in Australia, what with the ban on most auto-loaders.

The Bilson is an auto-loader. The pump action merely charges the weapon; from then on it functions just like any other AR. The pump action forearm just replaces the usual ambi charging handle. I have handled a couple of these and they are very well made, solid weapons.
