Initial impressions after handling one of these at Canadian Tire on McLeod Trail with a wood stock in 17HMR: The toggle action was a touch stiff but would hopefully break in to be somewhat smoother with use. The wood stock barely has any finish and would need some more coats to be truly weatherproof. The mags are plastic and leave a lot to be desired. Never tried the trigger but did notice a couple external adjustments through the triggerguard. The metal work looked really great at this price point!
All in all for $609, I'd probably buy one if I didn't already have a very similar Izhmash toggle design and a bunch of other nice rimfires. Mind you that AICS copy would be damn hard to resist.

Jeebus, already in town, haven't been down to the Mcleod Trail Canadian tire for a while.
