Savage 6
Notes: This is a
series of rifles that had a very long production run; the original Model 6 was
produced in 1938, and the Model 987-T was last produced in 1989.
The original Model 6 was a very simple yet elegant rifle; the lines of
the rifle are flowing and rounded.
Variants of note include the Model 7, with a box magazine instead of a tube; the
Model 60, which is a modernized Model 6, which is a short rifle having only a
20-inch barrel; and the Model 90, a carbine version with a very short 16.5”
barrel. Others (identical to these
four for game purposes) include the Models 6S and 7S, variants of the Model 6
and 7 with different sights; the Model 80, a variant of the Model 60 with
different sights and checkering; the Model 88, a variant of the Model 60 with a
plain stock and different sights; and the Model 987-T, a modernized Model 60
produced to be marketed under the

Thompson/Center R-55
Notes: Chambered
for the new .17 Mach 2 Rimfire cartridge, the R-55 is based upon existing
Thompson/Center .22 Long Rifle semiautomatic offerings.
It is basically a varmint and plinking rifle, but not designed for
beginning shooters or children; it is basically too large (though not heavy) a
rifle for that. The R-55 has
adjustable front and rear sights with fiberoptic inlays, as well as drilling and
tapping for a scope mount. The R-55
is very finicky about ammunition; Thompson/Center recommends the shooter use
only Hornady or CCI-made ammunition, and handloads are definitely not
recommended. The trigger is of
medium weight, with just a hint of creep.
The stock is of laminated hardwood, with a cheekpiece; it can also be had
with a composite stock. Changes
from its .22 predecessor include a bolt hold-open, and a trap in the butt which
will hold one magazine.

Thompson/Center TC-22
Notes: These
three related rifles are modern weapons, but designed to be reminiscent of the
way semiautomatic rimfire weapons used to be built in the middle part of the 20th
century. They use a premium-quality
American walnut stock (except for the Silver Lynx, which uses a black synthetic
stock), with all-steel metalwork and built with the quality that is the standard
for Thompson/Center weapons. The
TC-22 Classic has a full-length deluxe walnut Monte Carlo stock, a blued
receiver and 22-inch match-grade barrel.
The rear sight is adjustable, and the front sight is a ramp with a
fiberoptic inlay; the Classic is also drilled and tapped to accept a
Weaver-style scope base or standard scope rings.
The Classic is clip-fed, but the clip may be easily slid in and out to
facilitate reloading and topping off of the clip.
(This clip is loaded from the bottom of the rifle instead of the top.)
The TC-22
Classic Benchmark is a modification of the Classic; it uses an 18-inch heavy
match-quality barrel with a target crown and a stock with a high cheek rest
which is made from laminated hardwood.
It is magazine-fed rather than clip-fed.
It has no iron sights, but is drilled and tapped in the same way as the
Classic.
The Silver Lynx
is the newest version of this rifle; it uses a black stock made from composites,
and stainless steel metalwork. It
uses a 20-inch match grade barrel with a target crown.
The rear sights are adjustable and have fiberoptic inlays, and the front
sight is a ramp also with a fiberoptic inlay.
It is also magazine-fed, and the receiver is drilled and tapped in the
same manner as other rifles of this series.

Valkyrie Arms M-3A1 Carbine
Notes: This is a
copy of the M-3A1 Grease Gun submachinegun, modified to suit it to civilian
sales. Of course, the biggest
modification is the conversion to a weapon capable only of semiautomatic fire.
The barrel length was changed so that it is 16.25 inches long (412.75mm).
The weapon can take 30-round magazines, but are normally sold with
10-round magazines that only look like 30-round one, but have a block in them.
The M-3A1 Carbine is also supplied with a blocked standard length barrel
for display purposes.

Volquartsen Custom
Evolution
Notes:
Volquartsen began in the 1970s as a company producing accurized and custom
versions of already-existing weapons, most notably rimfire pistols and rifles.
However in 1993, they began designing their own rimfire rifles, and later
centerfire weapons. The first of
these is the Evolution; this weapon was introduced at the SHOT Show in 2006, but
sales did not begin until January 2007, and even they admit they are having
problems keeping up with the enormous demand for the Evolution.
Like most
Volquartsen rifles, the Evolution has a distinctive look about it.
The stock is of fine walnut with a radical shape on the buttstock – for
the most part, it dips rather low, and has a deep pistol grip wrist, but it also
has a high cheekpiece to make scope use easier.
A laminated stock or a McMillan composite stock are optional.
Metalwork is almost entirely of gleaming stainless steel.
The receiver is topped by a MIL-STD-1913 rail (though a Weaver rail is an
option), and there are no iron sights provided.
The Evolution uses gas operation, using a short-stroke gas piston system
similar to that of the M-1 Carbine.
The rotating bolt is similar to that of an AR-15.
There are no stamped or cast parts; every metal part is machined or cut
by a wire EDM. The barrel is a
Lothar Walther button-rifled medium-heavy barrel 20 inches long.
The trigger group is fairly standard, except for its low 2 pounds of pull
weight and exceptionally smooth operation.
The Evolution is capable of digesting virtually any sort of ammunition of
the appropriate caliber, including heavy and light bullets, hotloads, and other
wildcat versions of its chamberings.
Two calibers are
available, both with 20-inch barrels.
The .204 Ruger chambering feeds from a 10-round box magazine; the 5.56mm
NATO/.223 Remington chambering can feed from any magazine which will fit into an
M-16/AR-15. Both also have
alternate barrels available – the 5.56mm version has a 21.5-inch ported barrel
available, while the .204 version has a 24-inch barrel available.

Volquartsen Custom Deluxe Semiauto Rimfire
Notes: The
Deluxe Semiauto Rimfire is a heavy
modification of the Ruger 10/22 (most of Volquartsen Custom’s firearms are
modifications of other weapons, particularly Ruger firearms).
The result of these modifications basically turns the Ruger 10/22 from a
plinker and varmint rifle into a precision rifle, equally at home plinking,
hunting, or even in competition.
The
modifications include the stock/furniture, which are replaced by one of several
Monte Carlo-pattern stocks. (The
wood grain on the wood stocks are especially beautiful.)
These stocks may be brown walnut, gray ash, Hogue synthetic, McMillan
Sporter synthetic, or McMillan Thumbhole-type synthetic. (Other than the
McMillan Thumbhole, the stocks use semi-pistol grips.)
The receiver housing is replaced with CNC stainless steel, machined and
then hand-finished. The receiver is
topped with a Weaver rail. The
chamber is replaced with a match chamber, and the barrel is replaced with a
18.5-inch bull barrel tipped with a muzzle compensator that has 32 holes.
The compensator is threaded and may be removed and replaced with other
compatible muzzle devices. The barrel is fluted, primarily to reduce weight, but
also to increase longitudinal stiffness.
The Deluxe Semiauto Rimfire can accept both standard Ruger 10/22
magazines or the rotary magazines of the Ruger 77/22.
A lighter
version is also available, with a 16.5-inch barrel.
It is otherwise identical to the “standard” Deluxe Semiauto Rimfire.

Weatherby Mk XXII Deluxe
Notes:
This is a vastly scaled-down semiautomatic version of the .460 Magnum.
It is grooved for a scope mount, but has no iron sights, and has a rubber
butt plate designed primarily to prevent slipping rather than being any sort of
padding. The Mk XXII comes in two versions, one within an internal tubular
magazine and a magazine-fed version.
The Mk XXII was of such quality that the real-life price was quite high,
lading to limited sales. The Mk
XXII was originally built for Weatherby by Beretta starting in 1964, but
production switched to Howa in Japan in 1969, and then to new Weatherby
facilities in the US in 1982.
Production ceased in 1989.
In 2008, the Mk
XXII came back – sort of. The new
Mk XXII is a bolt-action rifle, which makes it more akin to its Weatherby .460
predecessor. The action is built by
Anschutz (it is, in fact, the Anschutz Model 64 action), but the stock is of
American select walnut and the rifle is sold only by Weatherby.
Finish is polished blue, and the stock has a Schnabel fore-end.
The stock has fine checkering at the pistol grip wrist and on the
fore-end, and hand-cut. The new Mk
XXII comes only in a magazine-fed version, and the 23-inch barrel is an inch
shorter than the original Mk XXII.
The new Mk XXII otherwise has design features similar to those of the original
Mk XXII.

Wilkinson Terry
Notes: Big
Brother to the Linda assault pistol, the Terry is a basically a carbine version
of that weapon (or more accurately, the Linda is a pistol version of the Terry).
Like the Linda, the Terry was banned first in California and then by the
Brady Gun Bill due to its large magazine capacity, and production has never
resumed. It uses the same basic
body as the Linda, and is also reputedly easy to convert to automatic fire.
The sights are the same as the Linda: an adjustable rear sight and an
adjustable post front sight, both protected by large dog-ears.
The stock and fore-end are of maple, and the pistol grip is of PVC
plastic. The 16.2-inch barrel is
usually tipped with a conical flash suppressor.
Dovetailed into the receiver of the Terry is a scope base which can
accept most sorts of scopes or optics.
Some parts of
the Linda may be interchanged with the Terry, most notably the barrel.
In addition, the stock may be removed.
This leads to some interesting, and in some cases, illegal (to US laws)
combinations, such as the Terry with the Linda’s short barrel, the Terry without
a stock, and the Terry with the Linda’s short barrel with a stock.
The GM should take not of the legal implications of players using some of
these combinations in games where it is applicable.
The Terry’s
design is quite evolved, but does have some shortcomings and quirks.
The magazine release and the crossbolt safety are located one above each
other on the left side and are the same size, so those who are unfamiliar with
the Linda may accidentally release the magazine when they intended to put it on
safety, or vice versa. Field
stripping is extremely complicated and requires tools; a full armorer
disassembly is even more difficult.
Reassembly can also be difficult, because some parts look at first glance the
same and can be confused. The Terry
has trouble digesting ammunition with thin-walled brass, and also tends to jam
when firing hollow-point ammunition.

Wilson Combat AR-9
Designed as a
recreatioinal rifle, the AR-9 is a 9mm carbine fed by most pistol magazines.
It has a secondary role of home defense, and is so topped by
receiver/handguard MIL-STD-1913 rails and folding BUIS-type sights.
The lower receiver dictates what kind of magazines the AR-9 will take;
there is a lower for Glock, Beretta, and Smith & Wesson M&P magazines.
Operation is by closed-bolt blowback. The stock is a Wilson/Rogers
Super-Stoc sliding stock; it is designed for an AR, but the tube on the AR-9 is
removable and is an add-on to fit the stock.
The control set is all AR, and the pistol grip is a BCM Gunfighter Grip.
The trigger is a Wilson Combat TTU, and is a two-stage trigger.
Upper and lower receivers are 7075-T6 anodized aluminum, with an
Armor-Tuff Finish overall. The barrel is 14.7-inch heavy fluted or 16-inch heavy
fluted or unfluted, and the barrel is match-quality.
The barrel and bolt are proprietary, made especially for this rifle.

Wilson Combat Tactical
Hunter
Notes: Designed
specifically for use against hogs (that’s why the round is called the HAM’r).
Most are based on the AR-15 platform; another reason the HAM’r was
designed is so that AR-15-based rifles could use the lighter AR-15 platform
instead of moving up to the heavier AR-10-based chassis.
As shipped, the
Tactical Hunter is topped with a Trijicon AccuPoint 3-9x scope. This is mated to
a full-length top Picatinny Rail. The 18 or 20-inch barrels are match-grade and
button-rifled, and is target-crowned and fluted. The handguards are six-sided
and feature MLOK slots (the top having a Picatinny Rail affixed to them).
The gas block is by SLR Rifleworks and is adjustable. The Tactical Hunter
uses a Rogers/Wilson Super Stoc, which is adjustable to six positions.
The trigger is a match-quality Wilson Combat TTU.M2.
The entire rifle is coated with Armor-Tuff finish, over anodized
receivers, with many colors and designs available.
The 7.62mm
version is for the most part the same, but is limited to an 18-inch barrel and
based on an AR-10 chassis. The heavier chamberings use an AR-10 base.

Winchester Classic
Custom Sharpshooter
Notes: The
Custom Classic Sharpshooter, built in the Winchester Custom Shop, is designed to
be one of the most accurate rifles sold by Winchester.
Though there are “standard” versions, so to speak, the Custom Shop will
chamber the rifle for virtually any caliber the customer wishes, and with
virtually any sort of accessories, sights, and materials the customer wishes.
Winchester claims the Custom Classic Sharpshooter is accurate enough to
be easily used as a sniper rifle in addition to a very accurate hunting weapon.
“Standard”
versions are chambered in 7.62mm NATO and .300 Winchester Magnum.
The stock is a glass-bedded Classic McMillan synthetic stock.
The barrel is a Schneider stainless steel barrel, target-crowned and 24
inches in 7.62mm and 26 inches in .300 Magnum.
The stock has a virtually full pistol grip wrist, and a raised stock
cheekpiece. Actions are virtually
handmade, being hand-honed and hand-fitted.
Sling mounts are fitted, which van also be used as mounts for a bipod and
monopod if desired. No iron sights
are provided, but drilling and tapping able to take anything from standard rings
to a MIL-STD-1913 rail are provided.
It should be
noted that the Custom Classic Sharpshooter was built after Winchester moved to
Belgium.

Winchester M-74
Notes: This is a
very simple semiautomatic design, easy to shoot and take care of.
Dismantling is especially easy, and the bolt and bolt carrier group can
be removed in one piece. As with
many Winchester civilian designs, production was suspended during World War 2,
but resumed shortly thereafter, and the Model 74 was very successful, with
nearly a half a million made.
Variants include the early Model 74, which chambered only .22 Short (the ability
to chamber .22 Long Rifle did not appear until 1940).
Another version, the M-77(i), has an interesting history; it was
considered by the US Marines to arm friendly natives of Pacific isles, but the
idea was dropped. The M-770 had a
heavy barrel for increased accuracy.
In all cases, the tubular magazine is in the butt and reloaded through a
port in the side of the butt.

Notes: Not to be

good finish and a choice of box or tubular underbarrel magazines.
The M-77 has rails for a telescopic sight on top of the receiver and a
nylon trigger guard. The box
magazine variant proved to be less popular then the tubular magazine format.

Winchester M-100
Notes: This
rifle was sold from 1960 to 1973, and was a very successful semiautomatic
civilian rifle, with over a quarter of a million made.
It is similar in appearance to the lever-action Winchester M-88 (see US
Lever-Action Rifles), except for being an autoloader.
The M-100 Carbine is the same, but has only a 19-inch barrel.

Winchester M-290
Notes: This is
an accompanying piece to the lever-action M-250 and the pump-action M-270.
The receiver is built largely of aluminum alloy, and the wood is a “faux
walnut” hardwood (stained to appear as walnut).
Total production was a staggering 2.15 million!
The rifle is fed by a tubular underbarrel magazine.
There were several variants, both deluxe and even plainer, but they are
identical for game purposes.

Winchester M-1903
Notes: This turn-of-the-20th-century semiautomatic rifle was
designed in 1903 and first appeared on the market in 1904.
Most have straight hardwood stocks, though some have pistol grip stocks.
The first 5000 of these rifles had a problem with “doubling,” where two
shots are fired for one pull of the trigger.
(This was only an intermittent problem.)
This necessitated a change in the firing pin from bronze to steel.
Few other changes were made over the life of the rifle.
Variants of note include the Model 63, which fires .22 Long Rifle
ammunition; this was introduced with a 20-inch barrel, but the barrel was later
lengthened to 23 inches. After
1946, the Model 63 was grooved to accept a telescopic sight mount.
The New Model 63, announced in 1997, is a modern recreation of the Model
63, using new manufacturing methods, but differing little in form from the
original Model 63, other than being a lot fancier.
In each of these rifles, the tubular magazine in the butt, with a loading
port on the side of the butt.
The Winchester
M-1905 is basically a Model 1903 rimfire rifle enlarged into a centerfire rifle.
The tubular magazine was traded for a detachable box magazine, and a
pistol grip stock was standardized in 1908.
The 10-round magazine was not available until 1911.
The M-1907 is
basically a Model 1905 chambered for a larger caliber.
The pistol grip stock by this time was standard, and a police-style butt
was used. Production stopped during
World War 2, but resumed afterwards.
For a short time (1934-37), a Police model was sold; this had a deeper
pistol grip stock, an attachment for a bipod, sling swivels, and an attachment
for a bayonet. An interesting
version of the M-1907 was bought by the French near the end of World War 1; this
version was experimented on to produce what may have been the first
selective-fire rifle. This version of the M-1907 was virtually identical to the
standard M-1907. They do not appear
to have been used in combat, but some 1500 were bought.
The M-1910 was
designed specifically for use with a then-new experimental cartridge, the .401
Winchester Self-Loading, and was meant to take the limits of the
M-1903/1905/1907 series of rifles to the limits.
The M-1910 is externally very similar to M-1907, other than the
greatly-enlarged ejection port for the much larger cartridges.

Winchester SXR
Notes: The SXR
(Super-X Rifle) is a new semiautomatic hunting rifle introduced at the end of
2006. Designed primarily for magnum
cartridges, the SXR is Winchester’s first semiautomatic sporting rifle in
several decades, and takes cues from a few other rifles, though it is for the
most part an original Winchester design.
Certain recoil-reduction measures are similar to those of Benelli’s R-1
and the operation is similar to that of the Browning BAR (the civilian rifle,
not the military automatic rifle), but both the operation and recoil reduction
are improved over those rifles.
The SXR’s
receiver is made from aluminum alloy; the strength and improvements in design to
the Browning action allow the use of this type of receiver.
The stock and fore-end are of beautifully-finished high-quality walnut
with a contoured black end-cap for the fore-end and a Pachmayr Decelerator
recoil pad on the butt. Other parts
of the action allow a further decrease in felt recoil.
The pistol grip wrist is nicely-checkered, and the fore-end is
ergonomically-shaped, but the fore-end does show some poor wood-to-metal fit
where the fore-end meets the receiver.
There are no iron sights, but the drilling and tapping allows for
virtually any sort of optics mount, including Weaver and MIL-STD-1913 rails.
The barrel is medium-heavy and cold hammer-forged, and is 24 inches long
in the magnum calibers and 22 inches long for the .30-06 model.
The trigger is single-stage and has a somewhat heavy pull which is
unfortunately just a little creepy and uneven.
There is also no bolt hold-open feature when the rifle empties its
magazine. Barrel heat does tend to warp
the barrel somewhat, which causes fired groups to become more and more open
during even short periods of sustained shooting.
Fortunately, the SXR is otherwise quite solidly and ruggedly built
(though there is a rather long length of exposed barrel).
Most gun experts
feel that the SXR is a rifle with promise, but that needs more work before it
becomes a really good weapon.
