Interesting...... You should get yourself a booth at the Iowa Deer Classic next month. That is the type of thing some would like to try before buying, and those type of trade shows help get the word out. If you come, I will buy one!!!

I have also had a franchi for about 25 years. It is a model 48AL or something like that?? An inertia gun. The only times I had issues with it cycling is when I have the spring's friction ring in the wrong position. You are supposed to flip it for light vs. heavy loads.

The population started trending down in the mid 2000s because that is when the DNR upped the number of doe tags available in order to trend the population downward. There was a time not too long ago when there was not even doe tags available. I guess I just don't understand the mystery here...
