What is the best manually-operated assault rifles and carbines in the UK-today?

I would like to ask our resident UK shooters on THR,as well as those Australian shooters,who live in those states,that actually permit them.If anyone else,has fired those types of guns-then they are free to contribute their opinions.:) :)

My favourites are as follows::)

Saiga AK-103 in7.62mm

Southern Gun Company LA9/30 in 9mm and .30 carbine

AR-15 5.56mm M16A2 and M4A1 Carbine.

Of course, I like so many others actually prefered them in their original :mad: :fire: configuration,complete with a semi-automatic function,but because of the SLR ban in 1988/1989,we are limited to those that are specially-made,for us.
Still anything is better than nothing.

Strangely,we can have a semi-automatic rifle,only if it is chambered in .22 rimfire and possibly soon,the other rimfire calibres.

The pistol grip is the lever. The front vert grip is needed to anchor the rifle into your shoulder and prevents slipping. Its fast and easy to cycle, just needs a little practice to become familiar with the action.
