Default NEW ENGLAND FIREARMS ML. Anygood?

Well I'm back with another question. One last question. Does anybody own or know someone that has a NEF ML and how they are? How reliable they are, any problems with them, how do they shoot, are they accurate, and any other info. ? I am a LEFTY and would like a new muzzleloader and would like a breakopen. I want something good,reliable,easy to clean, but not cost an arm and a leg $. Thank you for any info!!!

I personally do not own one, but from all the posts I have read about the Sidekick, I think you would not go wrong getting one. Especially being a lefty. They are know for their out of the box accuracy. The only thing bad I have read about them is their ramrod could be a little better. To solve that get a range rod for practice and use the rifle one for hunting only...

Good luck.

Here's a review.

I think Cabelas sells this one for around $169.

THANK YOU !!! I know mycousin has a NEF 20 gauge gun and loves it. I was wondering also that I see they have a HERITAGE ML gun. I can't seem to find any info at their website or any other site about the HERITAGE ML ??? Thanks for the info though!! I will let you know if I buy the sidekick or the heritage and how it is and performs.
