I read a lot of different message boards. If you can believe what the posters are saying about this rifle, they are balanced and very accurate. Easy to clean and take care of is also mentioned. I handled a model like this but not the Sidekick and it was a very nice rifle to shoulder and hold. The sights were excellent on it also. I believe it was called the Huntsman.

The company has been around for a long time which is another bonus to the package. I would say you might have made an excellent choice for the cost there.....
