Is it uglier than a T/C Encore, one of the more popular single-shot rifles around?

I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass. And I'm all out of bubblegum. I do tend to fit in well wherever I go in person. The campfire is the most outside exposure I get. No TV, no newspaper.

Yes, and that's a rifle abortion.

I've seen these rifles and EABCO advertisements for a number of years, but I've never seen a review in a magazine. I've wondered why.

Like any tool, if it's functional who gives a s--t what it looks like. The saying , Mopeds are like fat chicks, lots of fun to ride ,just don't want to be caught in public on one.
Never take life to seriously, after all ,no one gets out of it alive.

I remember the author saying that you had to half cock it before you opened the block or you would shear the firing pin off. that killed it for me. I see no reason a modern hunting rifle should not have a rebounding firing pin for fast/ safe follow up shots. I always thought they were intriguing and wanted one in .30 Herrett for a nice little stalking rifle.....the firing pin killed it for me. advntrjnky I've seen these rifles and EABCO advertisements for a number of years, but I've never seen a review in a magazine.
