Steyr Model SL Material - For the Completist

[philippes]

When I first started doing research on the Blade Runner blaster in the late 1990s, I stumbled on Richard Coyle's page at RACProps. As part of an article he had posted discussing the gun, he included photos taken from a book showing images of a Steyr Model SL. Over the years I kind of forgot about the material, but recently circled back around to it. The photos came from an article in the following book:

Bolt Action Rifles: Expanded 4th Edition
By Frank de Haas and Dr. Wayne van Zwoll

I purchased the book a few years ago (the 2003 4th edition) and intended to make the scanned pages available in PDF format for the Steyr Model SL completist. Unfortunately, when I tried to do this without ripping the book apart, the quality was pretty poor.

Therefore, I completely re-authored the original article in Adobe InDesign and recreated the exploded view from scanned high quality Steyr-Mannlicher parts documents. Here are the files for those who want to add them to their archive of material about the Steyr Model SL:
