Here we go:
1.- Light weight.
2.- In order that the rifle shoulders correctly, there should be about 8 cms of distance among the hight of the butt pad ant the cheek piece.
I enclose a picture of a Sidewinder. This rifle shoulders perfectly.
View attachment 397139 3.- For hunting purposes I would not include the voice to speak to you.
4.- It is always better to have a walnut or synthetic stock. Makes the rifle easier to carry.
5.- Total length about 36 - 37 inches.
6.- Easy to access safety and very silent to engage and dissengage.
7.- No light that can alert the animal you are going to shoot.
8.- No bright pieces that can shine with sun.
9.- No full auto mode.
10.- No possibility in the magazine to receive dust or sticks when walking in the field and that can jam the magazine.
11.- Enough distance for correct focusing of the scope without additional accessories that would increase weight.
12.- Trigger should be adjutable.
13.- 700 cc bottle to assure good shot count.
14.- Good shroud to silent the rifle.
15.- Dove tail below to receice weaver accessories like bipod, but just for those who want to use it.
16.- As classic shape as possible. We want everybody who see the rifle to understand that we are hunting animals and not aliens with Men in Black weapons.
I invite other hunters to increase this list.I
I will eventually add more points.
Thanks a lot for letting us hunters to give our point of view of what next hunting model of Epoch should include !!!!!
