    Ja the polymer banknotes are great, if you forget them in your pants / shirt pocket, they can safely go through the wash and be reused. If they get a faint tear in them though, they tend to rip quite easily.

    Yes, I've a M305 (synthetic) with iron sights. I found inserting the little 5 round magazine a little fiddly at first but once you've the hang of it, you'll be sweet. It's very easy to field strip as well.

    There are mixed opinions of the main purveyor of these firearms which is Gun City. In my personal experience I've found their staff to not be particularly knowledgeable about the products that they are selling. The M305 is supposed to come with a cleaning kit / combination tool set in the stock and confirmed this over the phone with them prior to collecting it.

    Upon arrival, the salesperson said that it didn't come with that (?) but he'd throw in a free sling. OK, great I thought, until I saw that the sling swivel was missing from the handguard which I and another salesman both pointed out, yet he continued to go through the motions thinking that he was somehow going to be able to attach the sling

    Long story short, what should have been a 5 minute transaction turned into a 10-15 minute wait while they rectified the sling issue. The rifle itself however is cost-effective, fun to shoot and reasonably accurate.
