I have two and love one of them.

The first is the standard carbine model. Totally unreliable it's been at my gun smith for almost 3 years now and I've given up even asking about it's progress.

The other is a Jewel. It's the Mannlicher stocked model and I adore it. With jacketed 240 gr loads it had never given me any trouble. Cast bullets gum it up something fierce. It's mounted with a little Leupold fixed 2.5x20 scope and is a real joy to shoot and carry.

Great for Black bears in the corn in Quebec and probably the ticket for wacking hogs down south.
