If you ever wanted to buy just one rifle and be done with it, that'd probably be the one.

That was my thinking too!, but who can just stop at one Thinking it would finish it nicely with a unidirectional muzzle brake

Yeah it is rather large isn't it, its a Falcon Optics Menace 4-14x44mm FFP, nice and solid tho, good optics for the price to IMO. It is sitting a little high tho at the mo for my liking so might get some lower rings for it. Here is a review on it.... Sniper central- Falcon menace

Firecookie, what is your opinion of that A7 stock? At first glance I wasnt too keen i have to admit, but once i picked it up and had a play it was great! balances the rifle very well and comes up to my shoulder nicely. The one thing i did do straight away was put a limb saver recoil pad on it just to give it a little extra length. It would be great if a few after market stocks did come out in the future for th A7, just to give people some more options. The best thing to do is just go have a play with one

What is the tape on the stock for did it break???
If there is any proof of a man in a hunt it is not whether he killed a deer or elk but how he hunted it.

Custom redneck palm swell(grip tape)....What Johnny said! (laughin') The stock is fine and doesn't bother me one bit. I did bed mine though. A7's are pretty good rifles, especially for the price. $85 for a spare magazine is a little harsh, other than that awesome truck gun.....grin
