All the racket from these new machines makes me glad I'm living in the past .Using the Teknetics Mark 1 and Compass challenger X 100.Even if they are considered heavy by todays standards.I think they're trying to cram too much sensitivity into these newer machines.I found that out back when i bought the 1266.I traded it for a Mark 1.I bought a CZ 5 and traded it for a Compass Challenger X 100.I lost money.But I'm a happy old codger.I'm waitin for Jbirds comments.Crawfish
