Australia's Pump Action Rifle: The Taipan X 

After all the issues with the previous version, I'm not convinced. From other reviews, this new iteration still has problems with cycling the action as it gets hotter, so I'm saving my money. I'm interested to see what the new Eureka Stockade rifle is like when it's released in March, and happy to see another Aussie channel supporting Australian Companies. Keep up the good work!.

Keen to see more from you. Great start to the channel. Thanks for supporting the Aussie firearms industry and SCSA 🇦🇺

Great review mate! Keep up the great work 👍🇦🇺👍

Came here from the Taipan Facebook page, good stuff mate keep it goin

I'm yet to see one "in the flesh", i am interested, though, as both a varmit rifle & for IPSC rifle competition. I had one of the blokes from SCSA, I won't mention names, just in case, fit one of their chassis to a 243 based target rifle & it improved the grouping out of sight. There may be some minor issues with this rifle However, to see an Aussie start up trying to innovate at an afforable price point is to be commended. Look at the price of similar rifles in the Aussie market.

Not a bad format mate, keep it up with different guns. Well presented but no negatives (cons0? I cant think of any occasions that the "bolt" safety is useful? I guess if your sponsored you cant bag anything out about it... funny you mentioned the case deflector, sucks to be the 1000 people who own a taipan light that doesn't have one and SCSA wont out fit them to their old model

Great Review! Sold me!

love the bipod, what is it?

I bought it last week from SSAA but haven’t try it, just kept it in my storage.

Need more variety of 9mm rifles/carbines in Australia, just went into Cleavers for the first time today, going through the ammunition, was around 4 types of 300 BLK ammunition but no subsonic and around 40 difference 9mm. The only 9mm rifle available on a B license in Queensland is the Tombstone lever action. But its $3200. What about a cheap 9mm bolt or more traditional lever? 9mm would be a great under 100 metre hunting round especially with some of the recent upgrades to controled expanding bullets designed for 2 legs varmints

Really want to see a bench rest group review from this gun

was it getting harder to pull back during the rapid fire at the end there?

I actually like this. I prefer semi auto. But this is cool

What category of license you need to buy in Victoria

Is everything free mate don't you buy anything

Good looking gun, how much ?

Does anybody know if you can put a suppressor on this bolt gun & we need to put pressure on yhis company to make this gun available in 300 Blackout, 308 Winchester, 6.5 Creedmoor & .224 Valkyrie

You said it is chambered in 223 and 5.56. The lite was but the X isn't. It is 223 only.

Stop it... Now i need another riffle.

If I was scsa I’d want this video deleted. You can clearly see how in the real world this rifle is incredibly stiff and clunky, cycling like a bag of dog turds. The video itself is well done however 🤙

I’m not going to blow smoke up your arse mate, that was a let down. More drama music and SCSA promo than a review. I got the same out of the OSA video as yours and it was shorter. Since you’re in contact with OSA I’ll provide some criticism (feedback for sensitive gen X’s) from a primary produce who uses firearms as part of my job not as lookalike toys. Why that useless bolt lock and not a bolt catch like an AR? Why no ambidextrous on the safety? It’s not difficult to cnc machine in the detent grove on the opposite safety pin surface. The tolerances in some of the machining are average at best (butt stock to upper a prime example I can easily see daylight through the gaps). The trigger, worst I’ve ever felt in 40 years. This is an $1900.00 gun that needs another k spent on it to make it into a useful addition to our work. Australian manufacturing doesn’t get a pass just because it’s Australian, this is the second iteration of this firearm the Taipan Light should of had buyers raising a class action with all the issues. I’ve seen garbage turned out from Australian firearms related companies who do nothing but trade on the legacy reputation of our forefathers, it’s lazy and a grift.

its so good :)
