Are the FN SPR enthusiasts extinct?

The internal box mag. I built the rifle using an action from CDNN more than 15 years ago. It didn't come with the magazine so I used a Winchester ASL stamped magazine. I'd like to see the factory FN SPR internal magazine. I'd be willing to buy the magazine if someone still has one left over from a CDI conversion.

I had one like that. I sold it recently. I'll see if I have some older pics.

Defiance or American Rifle Company

The CDG is miles ahead of the Defiance actions in terms of features and ingenuity. The only figment issue is with the trigger hanger and stock/chassis needing to be inletted. It’s a bit of a PITA but it’s a one time issue. Personally I haven’t seen the need for the trigger hanger but many claim it to be a modern necessity.

Defiance makes a fine REM 700 clone action but not enough to justify the price. If light bolt lift is important, to the point you are willing to deal with a 90* bolt throw then rock on.

If I was looking for a 700 clone, the Mack bros is a better action at a better price
