Disagree. A scope would be nice if all you wanted was a rifle but then why buy a Faunetta.

I use mine, at times, for N. Idaho Deer. I am blessed with the ability to walk out of my door and go hunting and the Faunetta is a favorite, along with a 16/8x57/8x57 Drilling.

I normally carry a #7 shot and a Rifle round as Turkeys, Grouse, Quail, Deer and predators are all available in any order. It is a pleasure to carry and confuses the neighbours.
