I received the rifle today and thought that those of you who have not seen it might want some pix. I haven't fired it yet, but am looking forward to trying this trigger. I kept reading about how good it was on the Interwebs, and can see why. Mine breaks at 3lb and of the various single shots I own, including H&R, Ruger and TC Encores and Contenders, it is the best out of the box.

It weighs exactly 7.5 lb and is fast to take down and put together The scope will add another lb.

The hammer extension will probably be necessary once the scope is installed. I will take the rail off, clean it up and re-install with some Loctite.

It has a standard breech, lever and a muzzle brake to wake up the neighbours. The action will not open with the hammer cocked.

On the bottom, just forward of the trigger, is the CIP proof stamp and serial no. The Scout is hecho en Espana.
