I looked at some older threads about the tx22. A few months ago me and my son both bought one. I really like shooting it. Very impressed with the trigger. Especially for the price point. Have about 350-400 rounds thru it without any real issues other than the bulk ammo problems. Now I see they are releasing a "competition" model. I like the looks of it, but msrp is about 150 more than the standard tx22 model. But I think I still want one
