RG RhodesSR-50
I have been interested in the design of Stoner's
SR-50 for some time but can't find much about it. I know he preferred the direct-impingement
system, but looking at the photo on Security
Arms, it looks like he may have opted for an
anular piston instead.
Some compare the SR-50 to the FG-42, primarily
due to the horizontal magazine, I suppose.
To me, it looks much more like the model 1929
Solothurn. It certainly very clean and tidy in
appearance.
Does anyone know where I could find a cross-
sectional drawing of the action, a patent
number, or better yet, does anyone here have
personal ezperience with this very interesting
.50?
Thanks
