Affordability is consistently cited as a strength. Most buyers find it a reasonable entry point for lever-action rifles. The .22 LR caliber keeps ammunition costs low, which allows for extended range sessions without significant expense. The black matte finish gets generally positive aesthetic reviews. The overall build quality is considered solid for the price. The tactical additions, specifically the Picatinny rail and threaded barrel, are appreciated by owners who want to personalize the rifle with optics or a suppressor. New shooters find the lever action intuitive once they practice the motion, and the light weight helps during longer sessions. Common criticisms include: weight or balance feeling slightly off compared to expectations; lever action smoothness requiring a break-in period for some rifles; tube magazine capacity compared to detachable box magazines on semi-automatic alternatives; and limited availability of model-specific aftermarket parts. ## Pricing **12 offers available** | Vendor | Price | |--------|-------| | Shootingsurplus Com | $322.38 | | RK Guns | $324.97 | | Gritrsports Com | $325.99 | | Palmettostatearmory Com | $327.99 | | Kygunco Com | $339.65 | | Deguns | $348.99 | | Buds Gun Shop | $349.49 | | Selwayarmory Com | $349.99 | | Primaryarms Com | $349.99 | | Impactguns Com | $369.49 | *...and 2 more offers* ## Reviews **Average Rating:** 5.0/5 (1 reviews) > **n_hollis** (5/5): The compact size is a big part of the fun for me.
