Scrounger, I now have 5 of them and I love them. I have 2 in .36, 1 in .38(rerifled from a neglected .36) 2 in .40 and a .45. The stock is sort of low but I put shotgun butt plates on mine and they are all highly accurate. They are a favorite of the plinking walks I take with my brother, wife and grandson. They are tough and highly reliable. The older ones come in 1in66 rifling and it takes a bit more powder to stablize the smaller balls. Also they need to be wiped out a bit more often. Tryit.
