Actually i like the red inserts, did not look for replacement, i could always interchanched them with the ones on my other Scout, to try... JP.
Every time I see this thread I'm disappointed I didn't grab one.
That thing is just plain ugly for those who purchase I hope it shoots better than it looks
Haha, always one
If Steyr has an interest to produce these again, it will likely cost more.
I can assure you there are more than one...the "silent majority"Haha, always one
Just a friendly heads up guys, I was in Kellys Sporting Goods today and he has two of these rifles in his "Vault" that are for sale.
I got one when they came out and they are a great al round gun, the quality is amazing and with the 2 x 10 round magazines as standard on this model its a great upgrade from the conventional rifle.
Terrific gun, although I could do without the red inserts.
IMHO, perfection would be an updated standard Scout, with the improved sights and the full-length pic rail of the Ranger rifle. I neither need nor want the 10-round mag. Stainless barrel would be nice but not essential. However, Steyr needs to move forward with supplying the Scout with an actual Pic rail mounting system, in lieu of the Weaver dovetail they are still using.
JP sold me a castoff years ago and it is a fabulous rifle. pm me if anyone needs extra swivels!
