That's me. Also the last one to discover Unique. Guess I'm a little slow. But to make up for my sloth, I bought two. The cheap, grey plastic, just a rail is at the FFL now. I have a 2-7X Vortex and rings for that one. The other is on order, the "Sporter" model 1102. American walnut and irons, advertised as a gold bead front sight. Looks nice in the ads. I know many of these rifles end up like the 100 year old ax, with a new stock, barrel, receiver, and trigger group. Not going there, but I have two questions. Trigger: I will try the stock one first. I've fired a number of these guns, and don't find the stock trigger as bad as some say. But there are some good looking upgrades out there. What do you recommend? Sights: Have the modest scope for the grey, but I'm thinking of an aperture for the sporter. Leaning toward Skinner, as I have a good experience with them, but open to suggestions.
You will ask, what will I do with them. Mostly fun target shooting. I have a CZ 452 and a Savage 23A for semi-serious work. And maybe wack a squirrel or two (my native PA now allows 22 autoloaders for hunting).
