Default RE: Remington Genesis at Cabelas

I have owned one for two years now. I liked the idea that it was a Remington brand and was priced for the average person. Shoots very good and I choose it over my shotgun, for shotgun season. A lot of people on this site and other sites complain about where the barrel is made and what it is made of. I could care less as long as it holds up and shoots well. So far, no reason to believe either will fail.

Folks pointed out a few minor complaints which I can agree with. After many shots the torch cam gets a bit sticky. Not really a concern in the woods and at the range, a quick swipe of solution is all you need. I find that the breach plug is very hard to extract with my scope on. I hear more lube is what I need. Standard mount may give some people problems. I would recommend to buy different mounting hardware to fit your need. Also to get more sturdy mounts. I am still shooting the scope and mounts that came with it. Stock does seem a bit cheap and hollow sounding. Wood would be a dream...

All in all, I would NOT avoid buying this gun if you are on the fence. This is a good deal and you likely will not be disappointed.
