Re: Anschutz semi auto .22
That rifle and the French Gevarm model E1 are pretty close clones of one another. I would guess that the Anschutz would be the original & the Gevarm the copy but I am speculating.
There aren't too many rifles out there that fire from an open bolt but they are quite fun.
I have heard that the magazines are interchangeable (and also the earlier Gevarm model A) but haven't ever tried it for myself, so that might be another source of magazines. There is an 8 round version & a 20 round version. The downside is that Gevarm magazines are also as scarce as hens teeth.

Re: Anschutz semi auto .22
Ok thanks! That makes sense as I will get a handgun in the future.
@BronxLive I will let you know if I find magazines.

Re: Anschutz semi auto .22
A member of our club has an Anschutz & I could have sworn it was an open bolt but further research seems to indicate it isn't! I consider myself corrected.
The Gevarm definitely is open bolt - I have one.
If I am ever at the range with my Gevarm when the other member is there with his Anschutz I shall test out the mag interchangeability and report back.
