A very interesting action David, I must admit it does look like a DST Rolling Block Rifle converted to a striker action, but hey, there's only so many design combinations to be had on single shot rifles.

More information please and pictures of the internals as well. Looking very, very good so far.

This action operates like a Hall single shot.  It has a self setting single trigger. I plan on making another with an exposed hammer. My wife loves it. She can barely hold it, but can still beat me at King match with it and she shoots very well from the bench with it.

Yes, when can one get on the list for action and what does the backlog and wait time look like?

I will be offering bare actions, barreled actions, and complete rifles. Pending the manufacturing license, the wait is up to 6 months. 
Cost:
Actions $1795
Barreled Action $2245 plus cost of barrel blank.
Complete rifle starting at $4495

I have 10 actions almost complete. And one can get on the list now.
Half down to get on the list, other half due when ready to ship.

David,

Definitely more picture would make the winter go quicker!

Will the exposed hammer version have a top tang or some method of mounting an iron sight on the wrist?

Keep on hav'n fun!

David,
If I make ask, why is the trigger guard so long if it has only a single self setting trigger?

Thank you,

Frank

Really neat looking action ! Looks like a cross between a low wall and a hepburn. Could call it the Lowburn. Looking forward to seeing more.

I am working on actions that will accommodate a tang site.
Regarding the trigger guard length. I originally made it to fit my hands. I have large fingers.  Custom actions will be available, so trigger guard length can be changed. This is a custom shop therefore anything is possible.

Looks nice Dave. Really like the side lever. Can we assume this a low pressure action on par with the low wall?

Lowburn is a neat name.  Smiley

This is definitely not a low pressure action. The picture does not do it justice. It will handle anything a high wall will handle.  Regarding a name; This is a Black Jack falling block.
