I'm sorry - couldn't resist. Just ordered one of these from AOA. Feel it was a good decision for the price.
Looking forward to comparing it to my Gamo CFX.
May have a RWS 350 coming as well if a certain someone gets back from vacation.
Anyway, I look forward to this addition and hope I can join you all in SC. (if someone tells me how to get there).

Congrats Jack!!! You can't go wrong at that price. If you don't like for some crazy reason,...you can always sell and recoup.

I couldn't help myself either - as couldn't a few others here at GTA - lol . Mine is as accurate as you could possibly hope for out of the box. You're going to like it. The stock on mine was kind of "different" I guess is good word. The stain job looked like a box of neopolitan ice cream - 3 different shades in perfectly straight lines. But at the price, I didn't even care that much - gives me a chance to try my hand at refinishing. I've seen pics from the other guys here that took advantage of the great deal, and their stocks look fine. AofA shoots a 10 shot string over a chrony for you, with 7.9 gr. pellets mine ran from 1040 to 1070 fps. I don't own a chrony (yet) so I'll take their word for it. So far the gun exceeds my expectations by a lot!

Congrats on the new rifle. I agree with you, you can't go wrong for the price. I've been eyeing that AOA deal for a while now and the more I look at it the more I get tempted.
Looking forward to your review and pics of the rifle when you get it..

My 52 is a awesome shooter. I got mine before this crazy deal and it is worth every penny.
Try using H&N Barracudas 10.6 grain. My 52 is pellet on pellet with them.

Jack are you set for a scope. I have a extra leapers drooper mount (like in Ricks pic) and leapers 1 inch rings or 30mm rings.
