I have been patiently waiting for this gun to be in stock. I almost went a different route several times. But I waited and I got the email this morning saying it was in stock. I'm very excited. I ordered some round balls and 100 rounds of NSA slugs that he recommends for this gun. Just need a scope now. Hopefully I will be sighting it in next week. I bought the carbine because i like the short length for walking the woods and for my small elevated tree stand. Thanks for listening.
