Got the email...and they are C&R. The only problem is they seem pretty so what for a Curio and Relic Beretta that costs $395. Doesn't look like anything special about the sights.

Found this site that tells about it.

The oddest thing to me is that it looks like a more or less normal bolt action rifle but it is also semiautomatic.

In ads like this, I always wonder who decides the "Suggested Retail" price that they can mark down
and give you such a great deal on the rifle. And I think we can all guess who that is.........

From what I'm reading...the .22 favorite black rifle is made by Smith & Wesson.

At Academy Sports $399 in my town so it probably sells for about that everywhere else. But ... a little more expensive than the Beretta verson.
The only thing about these rifles is... when they fire the .22 round they go plink, plink plink and not bang, bang , bang. An "assault" .22 seems ridiculous in some ways.

Probably OK if you are going to "assault" gophers, otherwise........ mehhhhh.
Agree that .22 is plink, and I prefer bang.......
