I've been doing a lot of research on guns lately. This looks like an excellent deal for a very decent functioning, reliable, proven, and economical gun. They go for $99 bucks everywhere around here, as they've been re-arsenaled. What do you think for an extra gun to have for a buddy?

This guy has an excellent video covering the gun and its functionality:

Yeah I bought a couple for $150 but 880 rounds of ammo for it doubles the price.

The cartridges are huge. It's bulky, very loud gun. The bolt is tricky to disassemble and reassemble.

The ammo is not suitable for home defense, it's a hunting target gun. The bullets could conceivably go through several walls if given the chance.

I figured the ammo would cost quite a bit. Also, the going through the walls is definitive an issue, not to mention length for home defense. But I was indeed thinking of using it as a cheaper hunting gun for big game if ever needed...

Overall, were you happy with your purchase?
