It was the reliability especially the rotary mag and acceptable accuracy that were the main factors.
Sounds like nowadays this isn't the case without spending coin

It sounds as if there are good and bad examples around so I suppose you have to be luck with what you get, The other great feature is the shortness and flush magazine especially when using a scabbard on a motorbike, that was one of the main reasons I liked them along with the other reasons I have said. Shot a few deer and goats with the sub sonic round but wouldn't recommend doing so as no margin for error. But on Rabbits, Hares, Possums and Wallabies the combo worked a treat.
