The Art and War Podcast 201: Building the SA80 in the USA - Murdoch and Co. - Remanufacturing the British L85
Joining B.R this episode is Evan Murdoch, founder of Murdoch and Co. A venture that is remanufacturing the (in)famous British SA80 as the 'EM85' for private ownership within the United States. B.R discusses what 'remanufacturing' means, how identical the EM85 will be to the SA80, Evan's personal British heritage and how he wishes to bring British manufacturing pride back to firearms, the history of the SA80 series of rifles and why the A1 damned the weapon's reputation forever, and using modern techniques to recreate a Cold War classic.
The lads also discuss the differences between the 'Limited Edition' EM85 and a possible future production variant, the cost of creating a project like this, other SA80 projects of years past and more recent productions like the AKB-23 from Aly and Kaufman and much more!
