I'd consider the full stock version *IF* they brought out a European list of cartridges (6.5x55, 7x57, 8x57) AND the US dollar value rises to a point where the price is competitive with the Ruger #1.  A barrel swap system would be extremely appealing too.  It's a very nice single shot, but somewhat overpriced for a break action single.  I have no desire to own one in .308 or 30-06 (the only chambers offered to the US market as of right now.)

I had a 30/06 briefly. It is a very well made rifle although I was pretty disappointed in the engraving, it is just roll engraved very lightly. The single set trigger is hard to set but works OK. I never shot it enough to develop any accuracy load but what little I did shoot it seemed to string vertically. It was an impulse purchase and when I was offered what I paid for it I was glad to let it go.
The story of David & Goliath only demonstrates the superiority of ballistic projectiles over hand weapons, poor old Goliath never had a chance.
