I'm looking forward to the release of the Slash and hopefully some reviews soon after. I own two Taipan Vet 2's, one in .22 with 550 barrel and one in .25 with 700 barrel. Both rifles are accurate and great for shooting pests which is their main purpose for me. I also own a Huben K1 in .25 that is fun to shoot but has some drawbacks for my style of shooting. One is the non removable magazine that makes it more difficult to load and clean. It shoots accurate and fun to shoot just not as convenient as the Taipans. So, if the Slash turns out to be a winner with the reviewers it will probably be my next purchase because of the convenience of the removable magazines and the inclusion of a safety. The Huben has a safety but it is always live and a friend of mine that has one also has had it fire without depressing the trigger....Mine hasn't done that yet but it is always on my mind. And it you forget to put the magazine locking lever back down after loading you will only get one shot then a jam. I'm not bashing the Huben as I enjoy it very much...just have to pay more attention to detail when loading and getting ready to shoot again.
