Blast from the part? So many companies have bought the design rights,I'm not sure how many, but I think the current manufacturer is Henry Repeating Arms.
What I really miss is the Springfield/CZ semi-clone of the old USAF M6 survival rifle/shotgun. I missed the stainless steel version, but at least got one of the standard ones.
The feds made the 18" barrel and trigger guard mandatory, while the factory chambered the rifle in .22lr, rather then the GI .22 Hornet. A genuine safety improvement, which did not change any esthetics, was the addition of a third, "null" position on the hammer selector which made both barrels safe.
I wonder how much begging it would take to get CZ to do a bit of redesign, and chamber the rifle barrel for 5.7mm P90 ammo? between that, and hot .410s, you'd have a tiny weapon that could do an acceptable job on most targets in the 200 .lb weight class even at 100 yards. Not ideal, but a lot better than being totally under-armed.
Heh, I remember those, sans trigger guard, still a good idea but I think a two piece instead of simple breakover would work better. The 5.7 cartridge would be awesome in a combo if the bottom barrel was 20 gauge.
I did see that Savage is now marketing the .22/.410 again. I had a .22/20 for a while but it went away as many have done.
