I saw one of these today at wal-mart for 179$ does anyone have one of these and if so what do you think of it. The one I looked at needed some finessing to get the clip back in after taking it out.

Go to a dealer and try the same test as to how difficult to get the magazine in and out. Wally-mart may ask the manufactures for their second-rate guns so that they can then be sold for less money than a top-shelf gun, which would get you into the store to buy other things-- kind of a loss leader of sorts. A magazine should go in and come out of a gun with relative ease. Consider how difficult it would be for an adolescent to put the magazine in if it was difficult for you. Not a good design or maybe a badly-assembled rifle?
