They are neat little guns. Fun to shoot and I like a hammer gun as a starter. You always know when it is ready to fire. Accuracy is fine for a plinker. It is not a target gun though. Triger pull is heavy but the more you shoot it the better it gets. It would benifit from some work on the triger. I had mine drilled and tapped for a reproduction of the Stevens tang sight from Cape Outfiters and installed one of their globe front sights. The tang is easier to hit with than open sights. I ams prejudiced thugh, because I collect the old Stevens Single Shots of all varities.
