Post by: Gutpile on November 22, 2009, 10:11:44 AM: I bought it this summer. I wanted it only for grouse. It's great fun but I just don't need another plinker. It throws a poor pattern and even at 15-20 feet it's only marginal for grouse. My 44 with bird shot is as effective.

So i actually do like it but it just doesn't do what I want it to. Figure I'll trade it for something.

I haven't been able to get a hold of him yet but am going out to his pace tonight. Dad and I are planning on being in Republic either next week or the following to do some whitie hunting. If he is interested in the gun we could meet up somewhere.

Post by: Gutpile on December 03, 2009, 07:00:14 PM: Somebody on this site said he shot clays with his dads or friends or something. I call :crap: We put a clay on a branch and shot it at about 15 feet, one pellet hit it and it didn't break. That was after shooting at 10-15 handthrown clays and not hitting any. :chuckle: Not a clay pigeon gun but fun none the less.

I think it's a great truck gun. Not sure about backpacking. I'd want something more potent for bear country myself but it'd do in a pinch. It's lighter than it looks. When i saw pics I thought it looked very heavy. It's not bad at all really.

As far as accuracy goes it's ok. I didn't put it on paper but we were hitting an empty propane canister at 25-30 yards.

This pistol is great IMO for what it's designed for. A close range self defense pistol. PERFECT for a truck gun.
