I've often had the itch for one,,,
But they are a bit pricey for my wallet.

Let us know how she performs,,,
We're anxiously awaiting a full range report.

They are certainly "different" looking but I dig it.
Takes same mags as the pistols, and same types of upgrades can be done to it. Its got a 3x9 on it but will probably change that for something a bit "faster" to shoot. Undecided on the trigger spring flip trick. I dig it on my pistol but this trigger is pretty good too.

There is one downside to that rifle,,,
The situation may be pretty far-fetched,,,
But it something to consider when buying a $600.00-Plus rifle.

An acquaintance (not a friend) had one in a soft case in the trunk of his car,,,
When he was rear-ended hard while sitting at a stop light,,,
The rifle snapped in two just behind the pistol grip.

According to Browning, there was no repairing it.

It now falls into the prohibited category of a shortened rifle,,,
As far as he could determine it can't be made legal to own.

Fortunately in his case his insurance bought him a brand new carbine,,,
The insurance agent took possession of the broken one for proper/legal disposal.

The moral of the story is this,,,
That metal C-shape behind the grip is a weak point.
