    I bought this this rifle in January from a member.
    In my quest to try out different rifles for a good fit with my neck issues since it had a shorter stock.
    I took it to the range 4 times using 15 & 25 rd mags with it with no issue, and was accurate using the UTG scope.

    Disclosure of small issue using 10 round mags:
    On the 3rd range trip I discovered when I used a 10 rd. mag. I learned to keep pressure with a finger on the bottom of the 10 rd. mag when chambering another round.
    I also discovered you can put black electrical tape on the end of the mag and it will cycle properly (included).
    It doesn't have a problem every time, but you have to pay attention if using a 10 rd. mag.

    If you use a 15 or 25 round mag there is no issue (15 round mag included).
    I took it to the range for its 4th range time Thursday, Feb. 27, and ran four 10 rd. mags through it with no issue by doing what I discovered and continue to use 15 and 25 round mags w/o issue like the previous range times.

    Must have IN driver's license.
    I live in Wanamaker (SE Indy outside of E465).

    On the back of an old target used right before listing. Ignore circled rounds from the other side with another gun.
    45' on a front rest. Shoots great using my old eyes.
