I'll dig out the link in a sec but basically it was confirmed as being a target rifle for the APS competition that Maruzen run and is only meant to be accurate at miniscule distances. Has no hop, and basically would not be skirmish worthy sadly

there ya are. It's a shame, despite loathing anything armlite related, I actually like the look of this rifle in spite of it's armalite esque appearance
**edit** infact yo can see the difference in the bolt assembly better in the pics linked by the OP here

Well...thats kinda the point! It's not meant to be a skirmish rifle! It's built for their APS cup tournament, at ranges well below skirmish ranges.
SR = Simple rifle, NOT sniper ifle

It's very ugly and I doubt it will be that great. If it gets a great review, than I'll buy it for my sniper buddy, otherwise forget.

and I think the 185 is a typo, perhaps it meant 285?

"I'm afraid that SR doesn't mean 'Sniper Rifle'. It means 'Simple Rifle' and that's just what this is.
It's intended to be an entry level model for the Japanese APS cup competition and uses APS 3 parts and no hop to ensure consistency at the 10 meter range the competition requires. Previously all beginners either modified the CA870 (de-hopping a charger was popular) or shelled out for a Type96.
If you don't like it, cool, but it has been built with the APS cup in mind, not sniping or skirmishing. For this, Maruzen have their target audience dialed in and they only live in Japan."
No, there is no hop up. Yes, they are looking at their home market. Because it is designed for their APS cup, NOT skirmishing.
But as ugly as it is....I do think it's pretty

This gun is meant to be light, with the only accesories meant for it being an aimpoint and bipod, it is meant to be used when standing up hence the pistol grip and adjustable stock to introduce 'softers to snipers peak...
or it could just be a race gun

Interesting though... I'd never heard of the Japanese APS cup.
