Thanks! Post some pics when you get a chance.

Ordered mine last saturday and was at my doorstep late this afternoon. It sure is a purdy lookin thing.

here ya go.

HAHA! I meant pictures of your actual rifle. So we can see what the finish looks like. I've been told that the finish is a little different than that in the pic you posted.

Interseting note on the laminate one. I ordered one of them last week at a price of $279. It arrived on Thur if I recall. Sat they dropped the price to the current $199. I called them this morning and asked if they would give me the difference since I just ordered it a few days prior to them dropping the price. She said "Sure, we can do that.Thatwasjust bad timing on your part." She's now sending me a gift card for the difference. That's dandy customer service in my opinion!

I am wondering if you have ever used a thumb hole stock much. There are two notable things about them, most [ there are exceptions to any thing like this] people can actually shoot noticeably better off hand with one and they are a bit more awkward in the field since you can not conveniently carry the over your forearm.

I have shot thumbhole stock rifles but do not own one... Actually they do not appeal to me. But I am sure I could get to like them. I handled a Optima the other day with a thumbhole stock and it felt kind of strange. But I could have got used to it if they dropped the price a little..

Is the reciever made of a composite or is it metal?
Wonder why it's not stainless as well?

Nice looking rifles and the prices are great

The receiver is metal. Not sure what though.

Who is manufacturing the rifle?? Tom.
