The highly anticipated Southern Cross Small Arms Taipan is designed and manufactured in Australia with the Australian market in mind. The inspiration for the Taipan came from the need of a high-quality Australian made production rifle made from high quality materials.
The pump-action centrefire is well suited to Australian conditions, featuring the use of a proven rotating bolt system. It is lightweight, well balanced and compact, featuring a proprietary polymer grip enabling comfort and helping the shooter acquire targets fast and with ease. The Taipan is anodised and then Cerakoted for wear resistance and longevity.
