    I own two T3s. Both shoot better than I usually do and are great to carry around (which is what I do with them most).
    If you are worried about the hollow sound the stock stock makes, take the recoil pad off and fill the space with expanding foam. Weighs nothing and dulls the sound it makes when you knock it.
    The plastic bits are great. I have never heard of a trigger guard breaking or corroding and the only issue with the magazine is that you may lose it if you are prone to such things.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    I really like the trigger like that. .
    Yeah I know what you mean Toby. My .22 has a trigger like that and I find it really easy to shoot well

    Speaking from experience you dont even fit in if you own a pop gun but they do like veni sausages until you tell them how you obtained them.

    Boyds stocks ship to New Zealand now if you are wanting a LH laminated stock.
    I imagine they would have something that would work.

    I own 3. One has recently been reconfigured (in projects/builds section as tikka in disguise) from factory i used them very effectively on steel to 1k. If was looking for another rifle tikka would still be my first point of reference. Ive also owned model 7 and few other rifles and still go back to tikka. Some like them some dont. Go and play with one. What some people say are pros or cons for thay not be for you.
