I've got a Winchester 190. Great shooting guns but they do have two slight negatives. 1 - trigger pull is going to be on the heavy side. 2 - Getting them apart and back together again takes a little more skill than most other guns. There is a takedown manual floating around the web that helps.

Those slight problems won't bother most shooters. For cleaning, I never bother to take mine apart. I just flood the action with CLP Powder Blast and blow it out with compressed air. Then, I follow it with a light shot of CLP Breakfree and blow that dry.
