Cosmetic "blemish" airguns are a GREAT bargain and are one of the only ways to get, say, a Beeman airgun at a realistic price for most people. Also, RWS/Diana occasionally sells "demo" airguns that have been used for demonstrations OR have been refurbished. We have had no problems with these. Speaking as a man who has done numerous rifle kit projects, i can tell you right now that even for certain firearms it is cheaper for some malfunctions to make a new arm than repair it. Witness the old CATCO semi-auto sten guns...If your reciever broke on one of these, by god, you just got out an old piece of muffler tubing, got the ATF approval, and made your cuts, and BAM! New reciever! I can;t imagine a gun with so many polymer parts as the 1077 costing that much to make (I wish someone would tell this to HK, 1800 for an SL8 rifle is WAYYYYY too much when a 600 dollar AR will do the same thing)....so....SCOOP IT UP, BRUTHA!!!
