Troy makes a Pump Action AR.

 

I’m think of an assisted action AR that stores the recoil/gas energy and then release it with just the slightest motion and cycles the weapon..

 

Even goes so far as to create a new action type. A “Button Action”. After firing the non tripper hand presses a button to allow the rifle to cycle.

 

The goal is to avoid having the rifle classified as a semi auto yet be able to cycle almost as fast by pressing a button/second trigger to cycle.

 

Has this ever been tried? Would it be an effective alternative to semi-auto and all the restrictions associated with semi-auto rifles?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wasn’t there something that made the bolt catch engage on every shot? so you had to press a button between every trigger pull

 

cant find it now 

 

although now that I think about it, you could just keep your finger on the release in that case so maybe it was more complicated
