Nice boom stick. I have a Sabre Defence also. Nothing like that. I have a 16" carbine that shoots great. And I love it. But they put out some quality hardware for sure.
Nice looking rifle El Wray... how does she shot?

The stuff of novels!!
Bankruptcy, then the head of the European side of Sabre was arrested and charged with trafficking in weapons illegally (Google Guy Savage), then the US side was sold to Manroy USA, who won a bidding war with Colt.
Wild happenings!!

Ive been waiting months for barrel and bolt from Sabre, on the rare occassions I can get someone to talk to me I get/got one weak excuse after another. Too bad, had loved their products but their customer service has driven me away.

Lots of rounds through Sabre 5.56's so wanted a 6.5 barrel and bolt for a build. Talked to them in October was told i could buy direct so I placed my order,last story I heard was end of Feb I was told they had barrels but no bolts. Havent heard since, and was never contacted by them with updates I always had to go askin. Like I say, too bad because I really liked the product.
Well it looks like SDI is no more. Their site is down. 404 error. File not found. Oh well. Looks like unless I build my own rig. I'll have to look elsewhere.

As I understand it, they are being absorbed into Manroy. Have you tried Manroy's site, or a call to them?
