      apparently

      While belt-fed machine guns and even their semi-auto counterparts are banned in the UK, this ammunition feeding system itself is not

      this rifle is merely a manual repeater

      Here in the UK, we can’t have semi-auto firearms BUT – we can load our guns with as much ammo as we can (no magazine restrictions!)
