    As it's not a semi auto it would be unrestricted. I know it has no bolt, but each round must be manually cycled the very same as a bolt action. However i'm not the Gardai so it's only my opinion.

    the police version is the .223
    the wood one i think it's the 7600 if my memory serves me correct is 7.62x51, 270, .243 etc..
    i was looking into it myself a while ago as i've an 870 and it's pretty mush the same thing only chambered in a rifle cal.

    Classification wise it should be exactly the same as a bolt action repeater, the only difference is that the bolt is manipulated by sliding the front end backward and foward. I don't know those Remington pump action rifles all that well but I dare say that if you took her apart that the bolt head would look very similar to a bolt head on a conventional bolt action.
