Awesome buddy! I don't own one, but sure have not heard any negative about them. Enjoy! (at least the price was right)Anyone have experience with the Mossberg patriot? Won one in a raffle last night. It's a .243 with fluted barrel and bolt. Has a crossfire II 3x9 installed. Seems to be a pretty nice rifle. Now I might have to try it on deer this next month. Sure made my night.
