Lol dang I tore one of those apart and sold the stock on eGay. I bought it off here for like $300-350... can't remember. I was just going to use the action but I shot it and ended up using the barrel. I cut flutes in it and cut it to 20" bedded it into a youth length brown precision stock and it is stupid accurate. It honestly consistently shoots 1/2" groups at 100 with 50gr v-max and varget. It's a sweet little gun. My boy is 6 weeks old today but it will be one of his first rifles. Mine was one of the rem 7s with 18 1/2" barrel also in 223 but it shoots everything just over an inch.

Some people don't GAF what they pay for what they want. The key is what they want and money or the amount of it doesn't matter because they have more of it than sense. Seem to see a lot of it from people who never had to sweat to hard for their income. Magnum Man

It's heavy, poor in hadling, ugly and cheaply made. It's basically pipe action with thick stove pipe barrel and sapwood stock. On positive side there will be no recoil and inexpensive ammo is readily available.
