Blaser R8 Professional
The new Blaser R8 Professional features a dark green polymer stock instead of the fancy wood found on the regular model.
The Blaser R8 is by far the nicest hunting rifle I have ever used.

Actually gvass,the mags are made out of water….from the Gulf of Mexico.
The scope mounting looks more like the “old fashioned” type..ie not M1913 rail. One advantage is weight. 2 Rings vs a long rail with and a scope essentially clamped to 2 movable rings.
Id love to take one of these moose hunting.

Do you know the price of a magazine for the R8?
250 euros (300+ USD), and it is mostly made of plastic. Astonishing.

Looks good.
The “security” feature of it,the detachable mag with attached trigger..for a blue state that is fine,but if this is your only defensive weapon,probably better use it as a club against a determined attacker in your home.
Maybe I am old-fashioned,but I prefer my trigger to stay on the weapon and the mag to fall free when I hit the mag release.

AK™, it is really just a way they could make the rifle slightly more compact.
