[QUOTE="cohunt, post: 1628613, member: 94491"] So I have this TC compass rifle that I bought for my young daughter to take a "step up" in her cartridge size so she can start practicing at the range for hunting. I bought this specific rifle for many reasons: 3 position safety 22" barrel 13.25" lop threaded barrel cheap so when she drops the thing 40 times at the range or in the field I don't cringe S&W rebate offer decent accuracy reviews online Now here comes my question for anyone who actually has one of these rifles--- the muzzle has a slight raised edge around the edge so seating a muzzle device against the muzzle face seems to not be an option--also the shoulder of the barrel just behind the threaded portion is very thin so as not to be a very good shoulder for any muzzle device to seat against or index off has anyone else noticed this on their TC Compass? seems like the threading is more of a "cool selling point" but not well thought out on TC's part Yes I know this is an entry level/beginner rifle, which is exactly what she is, so it suits the situation well. If she does well with it and she gains comfort shooting it and increases her accuracy and consistency, then it has served its purpose well as a learning tool and she can then pick her rifle and cartridge for her next step in the progression--it is strictly a learning tool for now [/QUOTE]
