Their weak points are the magazine... which suck.

Even at that price, I'd cough up the extra $129 and be buying a Howa from Whittakers.....that would be $129 well spent, and also be supporting a Campfire member's business vs "WE Don't Give a Damn "Wally Mart.....

Ruger Americans are to Rifles as the Simmons are to rifle scopes.


Except for the fact that Rugers are made in the USA by a company with excellent customer service as opposed to made in Japan, China, and the Philippines, like Howa and Simmons.
