Someone was asking about this new rifle a while back and there is a review of it in the Jan Shooting Times. It is all steel, no plastic or aluminum, and weighs 5.5 pounds with a 22-inch barrel. The magazine is not stamped but cast, which sounded like a good idea to me. "Non-classic" features include fiber optic sights and a hole in that back of the trigger guard (where a shotgun safety would be) that is there to padlock the gun in lieu of a trigger lock. Looks pretty good. Now I have to talk myself into "needing" it.
