    I bought this Levtac 357 a little while and ago. Not a bad rifle but a bit rough around the edges. I rounded off the loading port edges and reduced the mag spring pressure so it didn't kill your thumb, had it cerakoted satin black, changed the spring so the ejected cartridges didn't fly two miles away, and loktited the rail bolts in so the scope didn't fall off (yep, it did this). Much, much better rifle now. Small, light, and packs a punch. Happy days!
