Hmm- saw one fellow say the rifling was supposed to be .004". .004" is minimal and about useable with that rate of twist, however he says he measured it at .001" THAT is not usable imho.
That is what I read as well.
Seems like you would be chasing your tail trying to get that shallow rifling to shoot.
I agree on the rear sight - not that it doesn't work, just that a barrel mounted sight would be more appropriate for the distances this gun is likely to be used for and look more correct to boot.
I have visions of a paper patched Foster slug in one of these but that notion may just be silly...
Funny thing... The price just went back up to $1750...
