Lovely gun. I have a 97kt, not real crazy about the thumbhole stock, but it is a good shooter. I am seriously thinking about a 77 so I can put a good receiver sight on it and have some more iron sight shooting. I'm way south, in E. Texas and winter for here has returned, Two days ago 81 degrees, right not upper 30's humidity about 85% and good breeze, the combination makes it hard to stay warm for any length of time, so no shooting today. This weekend it is supposed to drop into the upper 20's then start warming up. That's our winter story here up and down extremes, last year in Feb we hit an all time low of -6F, but did not seem that cold due to low humidity. Roads were a mess with snow and ice so everything essentially shut down for a week as we simply do not have the equipment and infrastructure to handle it.
