I had a MK II with the bull barrel ( 6 5/8 ) probably the stupidest thing I ever did was trade it . to replace it is about $ 300 (new) and on that my wife put her foot down . If it was some kind of rifle or shotgun that woould see a lot of use she wouldn' t care but to just go out and shoot up some soda cans (Or are they pop cans) maybe rabbit hunting she didn' t see the need. Have fun with your new " toy" let us know how it shoots
