And, it ejects down. I have a japanese grade I. I assume this one is grade II? The checkered stock is nice. Wish mine was. I've been thinking of adding sling swivels (yes, on a takedown) to mine.
I like the sights, trigger is great, it eats whatever I feed it. I'm very happy with mine. I bought a 10/22 and sold it a month later; now I know why it has such a large aftermarket. I wonder how the 10/22 sold enough in the first place?
