They are bonnie little rifles, I will never sell mine. One thing to watch for is that overtightening the fore-end stock screws will pull the breech jaws apart, causing wobbly barrel syndrome. You can replace the breech pin with the bolt from a Merc-S with a bit of fettling if it becomes an issue. The design is very efficient at turning spring power into muzzle energy, my .22 will do 10 ft/lbs with a standard spring. It's a very cheap design but works extremely well, the only real downside is its rather stiff trigger.

How is that Merc-S I sold you getting along?
