Well I saw a diamondback pistol break on the third shot. That tells me all I need to know about their products.

saw one at walmart in OK, price was about the same as a Colt.  According to the guy at the counter it's been there over a week, which in this market says something.  I looked at it, had magpul furniture mixed with their own quad rail.  A Taurus for $1100?  I think not!

OMG! because Taurus makes 160% crap right?  

I imagine if this were the case they wouldn't be as large as they are. I'm sure theyve put their fair share of not so great stuff out there but when you
make as many guns as them a year I'm sure there's a few turds.

I bought a DB rifle for my gf, will be home in a few days to pick it up and test it out.  I handled this one and inspected well before purchase. I am happy with the fit and finish of it. Will post pics and a review when I can.

FWIW, Was home for 2 weeks and was able to give my GF her rifle, she loves it. She got to shoot it at my silencer dealers where we picked it up at and the first 3 shots were suppressed. Coincidentally now she wants a silencer.......

Mounted a Primary Arms Micro-dot in an ADM mounted and sighted it in for her. At 50 yards she was able to keep it in 3-4 inches, more than acceptable for her skill level. The gun has about 200 flawless rounds through it. Said 200 rounds was a mixed lot of Winchester 556, Serbian 193 and steel cased stuff.

All in all I am very pleased with this rifle, the only downside is the ATI stock. You can't fully charge the gun with the stock closed.

The ones we have at the shop are not worth the money from my informal messing around with them


But hey if it works then good.
