Colt-Burgess Rifle.

Post by .45colt »

Hello All, In surfing around I see a post over at Cascity about Taylors bringing out the Colt-Burgess this year. I am now pretty interested in this design.it looks like a small receiver like a '92 and the loading gate slides forward instead of pushing in. I haven't been able to find much information or exploded views of the action. One shooter said it's a toggle-link action but doesn't use a lifter? Any input would be greatly appreciated.Thank You.

We just had a thread about Uberti introducing this rifle. Only last week. I tried the search but couldn't find anything.
