RE: Thomson's new rifle
I am sure that anyone including me could get used to the forearm on the Triumph. It just took me by surprise how plain jane the plastic looked. The pictures I saw of the Triumph made it look much better to me. Maybe looking at that Omega stock made the other look bad.
When I tried to close that action'trigger guard.. what is the trick to getting it to close and stay in the locked position. The one I was checking would not stay closed. I did like the breech plug. It looked easy to take out. And the sights were nice, but nothing special. My Black Diamond XR has the same fiber optics.
