I think you are talking about the BAR semi-auto I bought he first one that came in to Ottawa, Canada in the 60s late in 30.06 after sighting in hunted one day with it and tried shooting firing pin was broke, returned it the next day. they didn,t have a replacement and offered me the only other one for $20 extra in 7mm mag,my brother and I each shot a dear with the 7mm, the next summer I sold it as it was rather a heavey gun, the fellow who bought it had the same proplem firing pin, took him a long time to get it fixed
