The Armalite AR-7 is the one that
takes apart and stores in its own stock. Mine is made by Charter arms
and is in 22LR. If memory serves the current maker is Henry.
James Bond used one in Goldfinger (I think)
No, it was used in "From Russia with Love".
many people over in rec.guns claim that the Henry AR-7 is plagued with jams
and failure-to-feeds.
True, true... just like the hinge pin problem on the M6. Guess US
manufacturers can't make precision guns the way the Germans do.

The only problem I have with my Charter Arms AR-7 is the charging handle can
drop out and is easily lost while disassembly. I was hoping Henry's AR-7s were
as good as Charter Arm's.

expired)!
