I have to agree with Ron, the $340 price for the V2 Thumb Hole Stock SS is too cheap, it's a new model and the older ACCURA TH SS sold for more than that. Im sure it's the Original ACCURA.

The optima seems too long and too heavy especially if you re carrying it all day. It would seem better to be a stand gun for hunting

The V2 has a QRBP (quick release breech plug) that's nice, but for me I have never needed to get the Breech Plug out fast, the normal tool to remove it get's it out just fine, Im in no Hurry.
The QRBP may help to reduce Blow Back, but the Blow Back from the Original ACCURA is Minimal. Also as some have stated the V2's QRBP has problems with igniting BH 209, so if you pan to use that then it may cause you grief.
So all in all the new V2 and it's Improvements dont add up to all that much vs the Original ACCURA, I decided Not to get one, Im Happy with the 3 ACCURA's I now have.
These are just My Opinions and I figured I'd throw in My 2 Cents.
So If I had to do it all over again and I had a chance to get the First ACCURA or the ACCURA V2, I'd still get the Original.
Good Luck and let us know how you like the V2.

Sorry, forgot to mention the (Adjustable Trigger) on the V2. I dont have a V2 so I cant say one way or the other how (adjustable) it is or how smooth or gritty. But I can say the Trigger on the Original ACCURA is SMOOTH, Crisp and Clean.
