Nosler has a new custom bolt action handgun for 2018

Don't think I've seen this one discussed here. Nosler makes some really nice custom rifles. Their M48 NCH Custom handgun is different, and comes with a lot of custom options. It ain't cheap, but it's really nice. Aluminum chassis, threaded barrel, can be had with fluted barrel, and lots of custom colors. Take a look and see what you think.

I'm not familiar with the cost of hunting handguns of that design, but how much less are others of this type..

Suck it, Nosler. I can build for less.
Like a bullpup, it makes for a shorter overall firearm without compromising barrel length.
It places the occular lense of the scope closer to the shooter and makes it easier to use a rifle scope.
I have no idea what Knitepoet is talking about on bracing the “hump” of the grip on ones wrist/forearm. I’d never shoot one that way. Don’t even think I could.
Would I buy One? No.
But, I wouldn’t buy a $20000 shotgun either.

This.
It's a CNC machined stock. The program is already there. Put a chunk of aluminum in and wait for it to be done. Don't even have to worry about a grip. Just screw on any AR15 grip. Custom stock... check.
No doubt Shilen is making those barrels in batches for them. Fit the barrel to the action and finish chambering it. Custom barrel.... check
Like Zee said, the only odd ball really would be the trigger. Not saying they don't look like they are nice SPs. Just not at that price.
Last I checked a few other companies sell pistol barrels for less that rifle barrels.
So, it’s already cheaper to build a SP than it is a rifle. What gives?!?
Thats is where I’m scratching my head. Cnc machine a chassis and cerakote it. Fit a pre made Shilen barrel and chamber it. Maybe screw a brake on it. It takes AR15 grips. Bam. Custom handgun for $2400+...

Savage quit making the Striker pistol a good while ago. Not really much call for specialty pistols.
You've got some tools; get an undesignated bolt action of your choice and put together a center grip pistol. Getting the stock whittled out will be your biggest time eater, but you could do it.

But, guns can be built for less if you shop judiciously for parts and find a gun builder not interested in rapping you.
With a center grip stock the trigger wouldn't be excessively hard to do. I have several bullpup rifle drawings that show how to do that. I have the needed woodworking bits for a router that for some strange reason fit the collets for the milling machine, and could be used to make the action and barrel channels. The regular mills could do the rest of the wood removal.
