They are very quirky, but I love the loading tube set on top of the compression cylinder, which gives a "head up" type position to line up on the sights. Granted they are a bit twangy to fire ( I think they have a very long mainspring) however I think they are well worth a position in most collections. I think that the reason some are priced very highly by some shops is due to their comparative rarity compared to other 1980's guns.
