Abstract
A rifle has a receiver, a cartridge chamber connected to the receiver, and a bolt slideable longitudinally in the receiver, the bolt is engageable with a cartridge in the chamber. A bolt carrier is slideable longitudinally in the receiver to move the bolt into and out of engagement with a cartridge in the cartridge chamber, and a bolt handle is connected to the bolt carrier. The bolt handle is positionable in a manual position extending from one side of the rifle to permit manual firing of the rifle and in a semiautomatic position about 180 degrees different from the manual position and extending from the other side of the rifle to permit semiautomatic firing of the rifle. The position of the bolt carrier may be changed between the manual and semiautomatic positions without removing the bolt carrier from the rifle.
