    Wilkinson Arms returns, pending FFL.

    Got this from another site. Don't think they will have any problems getting ok from good old AT and unconstitutional F since their rifles don't have that imaginary evil look.

    The original owners made some very interesting carbines and pistols. Will be interesting to see how the new owners take them and modernize them.

    I think it looks really cool in a 70's/80's sort of way.

    I remember seeing these before. As a fan of corny 80s firearms, I would rock one!

    31 round left wing hating capacity. I am always happy to see a "new" pistol caliber carbine on the market.

    I agree with skorpion, there is something endearing about a weird looking 80 style firearm.

    What's so "weird looking" about either of the guns in those pictures?

    Oh, the way the stock looks like a copy of some valmet, yet manages to still come off as a workable afterthought. The piece of wood on the fore end looks tacked on, yet fits the overall motif.

    Granted it isn't weird like the Calico rifles, but it is a good 180 from the "standard" pistol caliber carbine, and that makes it what I call weird, and I just happen to like weird. (I also put the Steyr AUG in that category )

    It has all the style of a Hi-Point, but not the low cost.

    pretty nice since owners of originals have always been after more mags and spare parts.




    These aren't a simple gun inside or slapped together junk either.

    The only similarities between the two that I see are caliber and blowback operation.

    They're both ugly as crap IMO. Bad ergonomics too.
