All good rifles the German springers. I wouldn't be without my 77 and 80.
35E is nice too, although the barrel catch maybe a nuisance for some too.
I don't own one, and I kick myself for not buying one years ago when I had the chance of a couple of second hand 35E's from my mates.
Not too sure on what the open sights are like on new 35's. But the old 35s had the best open sights I've ever shot with.
