It went down the road and I've never seen any reason to gamble on another one. Picked mine up after work yesterday and, uh yeah, the trigger.... Damn, too bad given it's such a light little gun.

Did a quick search and I'm not personally gonna even try messing with it. SLM, the 3-4 stage creep isn't so bad but the final pull required to fire is ridiculous.

Fun little fuucker for sure. (just got back from the co-op, Mini-Mags galore, scored 800 before I felt guilty...)

The elevation was factory set at the lowest point and high velocity 37 grain were hitting an inch or two low at 30 yards. Skosh to the right as well with the Winchester hp's. Moved it up 3 bars and now pretty close. I'd forgot how much fun 22's are to shoot. (10" plate hanging a branch, shooting at corners) And you can rip through 15 rounds pretty damn quick with that little short throw lever! Last edited by SamOlson; 04/23/16.
