Yes, actually, overall a good article. I found his dismissal of the early Spanish guns to be a bit over the top (I have two rifles, two shotguns and four pistols of that genre, and all are still fine guns after 30+ years), and I'd have been more impressed if he'd have spelled Hawken correctly, but on balance it was a good treatment of the entry level products.
