I really enjoy my SVD. It's got it's quirks. Once in a while the fire button will "stick", I have to turn it just a bit and it will fire correctly again. Gotta be careful to not cross-
thread the top ring, seems like it would be easy to do.
Like the looks of it more than the Vamo. Like that it telescopes, with an AW IMR 18350 the size is good for out and about. At home I prefer the longer tube (for the grip) and the AW IMR 18650. YMMV
Very pleased, I hope you will be as well.
