There worth every last cent. Ask Specfire or 9mm-Suppository, both have shot my rifle and enjoyed the experience. The are VERY reliable, that is unless you leave the local range "ex-airborn" shoot it like I did, he will show you effective ways of jamming even a single shot coeey.
There very accurate and the superb trigger along with night sights really make it a great package. Plus it has a folding stock, and if thats not small eneugh for you in breaks down easily into two parts.
Its not plastic like an SL8.
Its a military proven design, unlike the M96.
Its the best Non-restricted "black" gun going.
