That rifle can only be explained by the Communist work ethic. "As long as you pretend to pay me, i will pretend to work".

That ethos obviously carries over into the field of rifle design. Well, look at the architecture in modern China and Russia - their hideous buildings are the analogy to this rifle. Probably perfectly functional, but just butt ugly. Sort of like the difference between carving a roasted turkey and bludgeoning it with an axe. Either way you're cutting it, but...

I think there is nothing like a Kentucky rifle. There form followed function until it was refined and artistic. Even my Traditions in-line, which shoots .5 MOA, has the classic look of an traditional hunting rifle.

Anyway, i think i'll not bid on this one.
