Product Description
Designed, engineered, and manufactured in New Zealand, the GBC ABYSS SP-i Series II Hunter Rifle offers a unique and high-performance firearm for hunting and sporting enthusiasts. This rifle is built with an entirely new set of proprietary components, ensuring a distinct and superior shooting experience, particularly for those searching for "sp i" series rifles.
- New Zealand Made: Proudly designed, engineered, and manufactured in Rotorua, New Zealand.
- Straight-Pull Action: Features a smooth, spring-loaded straight-pull bolt for rapid and reliable cycling.
- Ambidextrous Controls: Equipped with a reversible charging handle, ambidextrous safety, and an ambidextrous extended magazine catch for versatile operation.
- Proprietary Design: Incorporates newly designed Upper & Lower Receivers, Bolt Carrier, Bolt, Bolt Catch, and other components specifically engineered for the GBC ABYSS SP-i Series II.
- Durable Finish: Aluminium parts feature a hard anodised coating with a titanium grey Gun Kote finish for robust protection and a refined appearance.
- Standard Equipment: Fitted with an Octagonal Carbon Fibre Free Float 12" Handguard, Fab Defense Butt-Stock, and a GBC adjustable drop-in trigger.
- Magazine Compatibility: Designed to use Magpul PMAG 10-round magazines.
The GBC ABYSS SP-i Series II Hunter Rifle stands apart with its meticulously engineered components, all developed and produced to deliver exceptional performance.
- Lower Receiver: Manufactured from solid billet 7075-T6 aluminium at Gun Supplies workshop in Rotorua, this lower receiver is unique to the ABYSS SP-i Series single shot rifles. Its single centred pivot lug prevents compatibility with any mil-spec upper receiver, highlighting its bespoke design. The Series II features minor presentation updates and an "A" cut representing the ABYSS brand.
- Upper Receiver: Also crafted from solid billet 7075-T6 aluminium in Rotorua, the upper receiver is exclusively designed for the ABYSS SP-i Series. It includes two outside edge lugs, ensuring it cannot fit any mil-spec lower receiver. A cut-out slot on the left side allows for reversing the charging handle, and the Series II incorporates minor aesthetic updates.
- Bolt Carrier: Constructed from 4140 steel, hardened to 45rc, and black nitrided, these bolt carriers are unique to the ABYSS SP-i Series rifles. They are smaller in diameter and shorter than standard AR/M4 bolt carriers, lacking an expansion chamber cut-out to restrict the rifle to single-shot firing. The re-engineered cam slot ensures smooth locking and unlocking of the bolt lugs.
- Charging Handle: Manufactured in Rotorua, this charging handle is reversible to accommodate both left and right-handed shooters. It is secured with two high-tensile screws and features an arm bent at 40 degrees downward, fitted with a 21mm Acetal groove-shaped knob.
- Bolt: Uniquely designed and engineered by Gun Supplies for the ABYSS SP-i Series, this bolt lacks gas rings. The shaft, where gas rings would typically be, is milled down to act as a bush within the carrier, perfectly aligning the bolt within the carrier for precise lug engagement.
- Bolt Recoil System: A new, single one-piece design for the Series II, integrating the Rod Shaft, Spring, End Cap, and Buffer Cushion for simplified rifle stripping and maintenance.
- Bolt Catch: Redesigned and engineered for the ABYSS SP-i lower receiver, this new bolt catch accommodates the shorter and smaller bolt carrier. Milled with easily accessible touch pads, it allows for quicker bolt release.
- Barrel: The Series II ABYSS SP-i Rifle utilises European manufactured cold hammer forged steel rifle barrels with a 1:9 twist. Supplied as blanks, Gun Supplies contours and profiles the barrel, threads the chamber end with a 13/16" thread for the barrel extension, and sets the head spacing. The muzzle end is threaded with a 1/2-28 thread for a muzzle brake or suppressor. The standard barrel length is 16" with a light to medium contour.
- Ambidextrous Extended Magazine Catch: Designed and engineered by Gun Supplies for the ABYSS SP-i Rifle, with components manufactured both overseas and locally to optimise cost.
- Single Stage Drop-in Adjustable Trigger: This GBC-developed drop-in trigger features an adjustable trigger weight screw, offering a clean, crisp, no-creep hammer drop with an adjustable pull weight from 3lb to 5.5lb.
