I liked my Hakim bunches. it was very solid, shot straight and had little recoil--I think this was mostly due to the weight of the rifle more than the built-in muzzle brake.
+1 to the recommendation to wear shooting glasses.
I'd also recommend that you wear both plugs and muffs, b/c the Hakim's brake makes the shooting very loud.
There's a gas adjustment tool that people sell on gunbroker that helps when you change ammo sources. Don't shoot Turkish 8mm.
I think that $600 is a bit steep.
