Has anybody ever shot any of these, and if so what kind of quality are we talking with them? I'm going over to the PI soon and am considering getting one for a friend while i'm there as a gift.

I had 1, M1500 IIRC. .22 mag.
Very nice finish, full size accurate.
Mystery wood stock. Sanded off old finish and did the spar urethane thing.

Interesting--thks. Terry!
