I bought this gun used for my wife back in the spring. It's shot well, no failures. If needed, you can find the manual online. It's tough to find extra mags. It came with one. I ended up getting a second off of eBay. She's happy with it. It's not too snappy. The shells usually release up over your head, so I would wear a hat when firing this so they don't smack you in the head, or end up down your shirt. Not too bad to take down and clean.
