French VC Speedline

It's quite possible that this rifle would be considered a semi-auto in the UK and therefore illegal. The fact that you need to press a button with your thumb between shots looks to me like a workaround for French legislation which prohibits removable magazines for semi-auto rifles and limits them to a capacity of two rounds.
 
I don't think it would be. It's just a lever release like the SGC ones. Christ the MARS VZ.58 uses the trigger to send the bolt in to battery; you pull once to fire and then again to load the next round, a third pull fires the rifle again.
That has just been tested and approved as Secrion 1 and is faster than a lever release.
