I got this at a gun show a while ago for a decent price. I've seen them around eBay and other places and I have to say that for the quality I'm very glad I didn't pay full price for it.
Out of the box, it might pass the 20-foot test but it's very rough with a lot of sloppy details, crooked lines, and other imperfections. To be an acceptable prop (to me, anyway) it is going to need a lot of work.
I'm planning on re-doing pretty much the entire front end and barrel. I'm planning to add a real picatinny rail and figuring out a working cocking handle.
I've also gotta do something about the scope. The details are sloppy and the front and rear of the scope are identical, which is incorrect. I need to at least correct these details, if I am feeling adventurous I might try to make a working optic by embedding an inexpensive scope into it.
There are some additional details to clean up on the rest of the gun; I'd like to add real screws and improve the detailing on the ejection ports and the magazine; might even try to do a detachable mag.
We'll see how much free time I've got this Winter...
