Posted: 6/26/2012 4:40:27 PM Nice deal at todays crazy prices for them. Great rifles to shoot and always an attention getter at the range. The gas system is a bit odd for adjustments, but you can make a tool pretty easily for it. Recoil is ok for the size of the rifle and mine tends to like the Cheq stuff better than others. Not pin point accurate in my two examples, but it works well enough. The mag not matching is typical of the refurbed ones. Check the back of the recvr they tend to crack the stock after awhile and many times you will see a patch job there. Disassembly is kind of tough the first few times, but you get used to it after awhile. Enjoy!
