Idk why people find it ugly. I think it look cool. Ive read I few reviews from the south and its not very popular. Front heavy, weight 1-2 pounds more than an ar 15. Some reported feeding issue. Accuracy is also not as good as ar. Reciever and trigger assembly is made of polymer. Expensive.
Its not like we have many options, but im always bum out when I know im paying premium price (compare to the states) for average performing rifle. Still want one.
