Im just giving him options.

Ive never heard anyone say a Stevens 200 was low quality crap.

A person on a $1000 budget may not want to actually spend $1000 if they can get quality at a lower price....

Accuracy is one thing. Quality of craftsmanship and materials is totally different. And that is what the Stevens lacks.
