Excellent video!
Ive always loved the idea of a straight pull rifle, but am too much of a poor to consider one of the modern ones. This savage may change that.
The combo safety/decocker is ingenious, and gives me the warm and fuzzies.
The ball bearings are mounted on the outer bolt. The inner bolt pushes the ball bearings into a ball shaped recess in the receiver when it is pushed all the way forward into the outer bolt. As the inner bolt is pulled back, the bearings have no resistance and drop back down into the bolt. As you continie to pull back the whole bolt assembly comes backward. Am I understanding that correctly?
