impala59 Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 Hi, I have an Impala 12g s/a which I believe is manufactured by Istanbul Arms or Khan possibly for the Russian market ( there is a Baikal labelled short on YouTube) I have posted a field stripped picture on the ‘Semi auto club’ thread. If you have any information or manual/schematic I should be most obliged Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope this helps Thanks oz man, I am familiar with the 153 and it has action rails similar to the Remington auto’s. The Tula I have come across occasionally, but they are barrel recoiling and I have passed when offered them. I guess Auto 5 owners would find them appealing! Mine seems to be something of a hybrid and I am fairly sure that of the many different branded Turkish guns, there will one similar if not identical. The Russian connection is because of the YouTube video linking the name Impala with Baikal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
