    Yeah I'm loving the walther lever action mate, I get just as much fun using it as I do the RS lever action rifles, I picked up the new 88g version in the steel finish, although I have not tested it yet at long range short range 6 yards it gets nearly single pellet hole groupings, I did mainly get it for 22ft plinking through but I will test it at 25 yards in the cartridge firearms range when my other pellets come..

    Cool the new 715 Dam Wessons for feel and look nice, your right the hogue grip does look weird but feel nice to hold, fingers crossed you have good luck with the 715 mate, 5 members on UBC have had there's all fail, either the hammer mechanism has broke or the valve pin snaps, let us know how well yours lasts..

    My 715s are ok so far.
    I don't use safety catches on my pistols but it occurs to me that if you tried to fire this pistol with it on it would damage the trigger.
    The catch is small and in a daft place - easy to forget.
    The valve break is odd but it was in Finland? Bit cold for alloy there?

    hi mate glad your 715's are ok, hopefully will stay that way too.
    went to my local gun shop today, (lol start calling it my second home soon) asked them if they had any 715's come back yet, they said yes just 1 out of 13 so far, it had a broken trigger but howard also said what you did, hes pretty sure that the owner tried firing the gun with the safety on and forced it and broke the trigger mech..

    We will have to keep a close eye on these, but as 'anything' in life, some will break and some will not.

    happy shooting mate.

    Took my pellet one to the range today and it impressed me!
    It was tin can accurate at 20 yards -standing single action - one handed.
    Not expecting that and it was a bit chilly.

    Ok on little stuff at 6 yards shottie cartridges etc.

    I rather like this handful of a gun.
    But to avoid aches and pains I cock it with my left hand and shoot it with my right.
    It weighs near 3 pounds!
