I held one of these a few weeks ago at my LGS. So much want, and I'm not even a surplus rifle guy. Looked Daisy-Red-Ryder size compared to the other guns on the rack, but the scale/proportions of this little reproduction is/are impressive. I have 22s I already don't reach for, so this wasn't actually a "real" temptation...but I'd still love to own one. Very faithful to the original, aesthetically.
