Had one of those in .308 too but ended up selling it to another calgunner who was going to take it "big game hunting" in Africa. Doesn't seem like a great big game rifle to me, but to each his own. It was kind of clunky IIRC. Not as svelte as an AR10, or even something like a Browning BLR.Comment

I remember seeing the PAR-1 in stores. I didn't think much of it. One gun that I did like and considered buying was a pump action Galil that I saw at store in 2000. It was just after the California assault ban took effect and that was one of the few military type rifles the store had.Comment

I remember seeing these for sale at Big 5, but never snagged one. Always wanted them, but had a S.O. that always found ways to drain any gun money I earmarked.Comment

Yup, had a 1 and 3, $124.99 at Turner's on ad. Sold them, should have kept them. Last one I saw for sale was $800 in AZ and sold pretty fast. There was also a PAR-2 in 5.45x39. Those are rare.Originally Posted By CTbuilder1 @ arfcom:
A lot of time and energy goes into thinking up ways to make perfectly good rifles into something dumb. Single shot ARs are gay. AR pistols are also gay. Just my opinion, of course, but a single shot AR pistol would be an AIDS cannon.Comment

Troy was supposed to release their pump action AR in a large frame (308) format for a long time and it never happened. I waiting around a good bit as I honestly thought one would make a decent hunting rifle. I have an Aero M5 build now with a faxon pencil barrel.Buying a safe and sane firework is like paying a hooker for a hug. I do not see the appeal in it.Comment

I'm sorry I didn't buy one when they were being produced. I looked at one at a shop for $700 at that time. I've akways been a fan of the Remington pump action rifles.Remington actually made the 7615. Pump action patrol rifle. Here's a link to an Americn Rifleman article:
Although offering fast operation and simplicity of use, slide- or pump-action center-fire rifles are not nearly as common as their shotgun brethren. Within this niche market, however, the Remington 7600 series of center-fire rifles has proven to be one of the more popular because of its combination of user-friendliness and affordability.
I think these were/are under the radar for a lot of folks.Comment
