i got a new frontier for 99$ as a gift for my brother back in november and like the way it feels in my hands over the thompson center omega. hasnt been shot yet but im sure its a keeper. i always like to buy american made guns but thought i would give this one a try. the new england firearms looks great but the fact that it needs some kinda cap seal turns me off. thats the reason i got rid of my knight disc rifle years ago. i just dont want to have to worry about buying extras to shoot my gun off.
