Yeah, I consider it a mistake for having bought the rifle. I handled it and dry fired it before I bought it, and had some doubts at the time. I was taken in by the economical aspect and generally positive reviews and decided to compromise - but the product just didn't win me over. My mistake, sure, I've made a few others in my life and will probably make a few more.
Anyway, not meaning to dis anything or anybody; just giving my opinion on the rifle as a pragmatic hunter. It might work out fine for somebody else, but for me, my opinion was solidified on the goofy trigger system especially. I will never buy a rifle that has it. Thought I could learn to like it, but I don't think so now. Call it a learning experience.
