A buddy of mine (Mike from Canmore) picked up the MC3512 with the wood stock. The 3512 is just the 3.5 inch version of the 312.
He has not had a chance to take it out to the range yet but he is extremely impressed with the overall feel, fit and finish....something you would only expect in a higher priced semi. The bolt/action is incredibly smooth....like butter. The red light pipe up front shows up very well. The trigger isn't fantastic as it is a little bit heavy for his liking but it is by no means a bad point. Sure is pretty...well worth the $ as long as it cycles and holds up. He looked online and couldn't find any negative reviews.
