Looking at a used one - listed for $200. Just for fun.
Any thoughts about the gun?

Oh really? A guy can't have a preference??? You can say a lot of things about me but that isn't one of them. It's no different than preferring steel over polymer handguns. Blued over stainless. Wood over synthetics. Brunettes over blondes, etc., etc., ad nauseum. I think I should be able to say that I prefer one of those over the other without being labeled or insulted....anyone who complains about "pot metal" or makes noises about "hurf derf shoula been mada steal!" doesn't know what they're talking about.
Because they're aluminum, not zinc, big difference. For me, it's also because they are inexpensive automatics, not leverguns.The Ruger 10-22 and Marlin 60 are the 2 most common and loved 22's ever made and no one complains about their alloy metal parts.
