By some luck and prudent horse trading, I have a chance to acquire one for about the price of a used H&R buffalo classic.
Reviews on these guns range from disintegrating locks and sloppy chambers to "as good as pedersoli." The people who own their paper cartridge models seem to love them.
Most reviews begin with "a friend of mine bought one". The good reviews are usually by people who own them. The same applies to only a few bad reviews. Has anyone here had any firsthand experience with them?
