Hey, depends what's the meaning of Junk

.
I have one of these inexpensive Tradition at $149.99. What can I say about its performance, beside that it's a .50cal, blued, synth stock, fiber optic sights, drilled & tap for scope mount, shoots excellent, surprisingly accurate enough for my needs +- 2"/100yds, sometimes better, likes every bullet/sabot I tried and works well on game. About accuracy, I compared with a couple of higher quality ML and I was right in the fight, and better in some occasion

. On it, I installed a fixed 2x scope.
Ok ok, I really like it, and I bought it especially because it was not too $$$. I am not afraid to bring it out in the bad weather, or have a bit of dirt on it or should I say to drop it in the mud, it's simple to operate, light and easy to handle, good recoil pad.
Cons:
Metal is soft and easy to ding, easy to rust without proper care, bit more work to clean compare to a break action, fiber optic sights are plastic crap but very easy to use. s**tty ramrod, I made another one because, well, it's a s**tty one.
For me, it's an inepensive reliable gun with no fuss and no gold trimming, just cheap and effective but not yet junk

.
Hope this help
