I've gone over to the darkside!
I've just bought a plastic and aluminum semi auto a Magtech 7022 aka (Mossberg 702).
May even go completely bonkers and put a scope on it
I needed something I could use my Parker Hale suppressor on and my local toy shop had a couple of nearly new Magtech's.
So I spent the afternoon trying different ammo, Remington subsonics were quiet and reliable as were CCI subsonics, I was supprised that Winchester subsonics were not. I even tried it with Stingers and CB longs (single shot)
The little 4lb something rifle sure is fun, I'm glad I bought two extra mags. Just waiting for the rabbit population to make a comeback.
I think the Mossberg is $99.00 at Wally World, a real bargain, I had to pay more for a used one.
Sorry no photo, since I lost my works laptop I can't find a way to post photos on my tablet..

Sounds like a fine little rifle.

I'd suggest going all the way and getting an AR or a Glock, but...

Re: I've gone over to the darkside!
For someone who likes Walnut, steel and brass, buying a black plastic rifle is almost like moving to France...
