New design rifle on the market

[oneshooter]

Looks like it could be fitted with a larger mag, takes down for easy concealment and has a thumb hole stock.

Should this weapon be banned?

1. Actually, it looks to me like it CANNOT be fitted with a larger mag.

At least not without cutting a large hole in the bottom of the rifle.
And no. It should not.

4. It looks like a larger mag would get in the way of the sliding pump action.

The only original thing about the rifle is the it doesn't look like a pump-action rifle.

2. A pump-action deer rifle? How ordinary. (nt)

[Straw Man]

8. This one has a detachable magazine.

Most pump-action long guns have fixed tubular magazines. Most, but not all.

3. Another pump action hunting rifle.

A different design, but pump actions have been around for years.

5. nahhh

As long as the Second Amendment can be interpreted to allow make-beleive m-16s what would be the point of banning something like this?

[Marengo]

7. What should the 2A be interpreted to allow?

6. On the Krieghoff website the rifle has a starting price of $4500

and up depending on caliber, options and accessories.

And no, I don't think it will accept a larger magazine

9. $4500.00 bucks?

For what?
Is it gold plated?

10. Yes, $4500 US dollars, Krieghoff is a high end German maker

It would likely be roughly comparable to ordering the biggest Mercedes with all the options.

11. It just seems too expensive for me,

but more power to those that will spend that kind of money for a firearm.

12. It has a different action than other pump weapons.

You fire, then pump forward and back to load another round. And yes, you can build a larger magazine for it. just nobody has, yet.

13. No, don't believe a larger mag can be done,

unless a clearance cut is made in the bottom of the receiver. The mag retracts into the receiver with the rest of the action when it is being cycled. A milling machine is all that should be needed, without actually seeing the layout of the lower receiver.
