I have had a 48 no dash for several years now. Will shoot better than I do. It does have a flaw though. I was told the first ones had problems extracting due to the charge holes being slightly overbored and the fired cartridge cases swell, causing hard extraction. I don't know if this is absolute truth or not, but I have encountered this everytime. When it gets dirty, and it always does, it makes it even harder. Just run a wet and dry patch through every 2-3 cylinders and should not have too much of a problem. Otherwise, it is a dream to shoot!
