I had one almost 20 years ago. It was my first gun and I loved it. I think it would jam about every mag or so but it was so much fun and I did not know any better. Pretty accurite, too.

I guess there was the "word wide web", at the time, but I was not on-line at the time. Not sure I even knew what the hell being on-line ment. Otherwise, I may have read a bunch of opinions and reviews about what a POS the Raven was, and I would not have enjoyed it so much!

I would not mind having another and probably will one day. Here is the thing about "cheap" guns: They introduce people like me to our sport who my not otherwise have the means to get involved. While I can an do own firearms with a much higher price tag today, the fun of that little gun started it for me. Gun snobbery hurts us collectively.

Enjoy the Raven.
