Things I liked:All metal. Smooth clicks. Micrometer adjustments. Absolutely no rocking or slack. A truly professional sight. Things I would have changed:The sights are straight black. I bought some NiteSiter glow stickers for night hunting with my 1322 and now i wish the rats would breed faster :D What others should know:This

I bought some NiteSiter glow stickers for night hunting with my 1322 and now i wish the rats would breed faster :D What others should know:This thing is 2-1/8'' wide and 1-5/8'' top to bottom. It hangs off my 1322's steel breech like a car wing but it looks A W E S O M E ! Also, it gives me better leverage to pump now that the scope is gone.
I highly, highly recommend this if you're a pistol packer :)

Things I liked:Ready to rock right out of the box. Stop hesitating and click Checkout!
Pyramyd puts the rifle in the Plano case with the scope already mounted. All of it comes in a single package. Things I would have changed:The Plano case's ends can be pulled up and the rifle removed if three locks aren't used; The scope's 1/16''

Pyramyd puts the rifle in the Plano case with the scope already mounted. All of it comes in a single package. Things I would have changed:The Plano case's ends can be pulled up and the rifle removed if three locks aren't used; The scope's 1/16'' of slack at the eye-relief makes cheek placement very strict.
Change? Hmmm...pair it up with a BugBuster instead? What others should know:The iron sights are GREAT! In fact, they're so good, I haven't adjusted them and i'm grouping Premiers within 1'' at 35 yards. Night hunting? Remove the scope and stick some NiteSiters on the iron sights.
The rifle has some heft. I use the UTG dragon claw bipod when the fatigue hits.
My 48's safety catch doesn't always pop out when cocking. I can feel it rubbing and it's not a mechanical problem, so it's not a big deal.
My cocking lever came with a small protruding dent along it's edge. The lever is thick and it isn't affecting performance.
The stock's grip is thick and may not be comfortable for smaller hands.
There is a huge difference in POI when switching between 14.3gr Premiers and 21.1gr Kodiaks. To spit the Kodiaks, the muzzle kicks up much higher. Unless you're really skilled with scopes (i'm not), it's another reason to use iron sights in the field. I stopped using the scope altogether :)
My perfect order would be: the 48 solo, 1x Beeman FTS, 1x Kodiaks, 1x Predators, 1x Crow Magnums, sling, and the dragon claw bipod.
