I own one. I have taken it to the range several times. I feel the joint mechanism is very good. It even provides an adjusting collar or nut that is used to take out any gap between the halves. I do not think that I will be needing it any time soon. I feel the materials are top notch and the gun is always at zero after re-assembly.
The cons are limited customization options, the non-takedown model is better at this as you can do whatever you want.
Overall, a solid accurate rifle.
If you really need a take down rifle there are a couple thats maybe a little better for the needs that have a longer history behind them. http://henryrepeating.com/rifle-survival-ar7.cfm It is 2.5lbs with loaded mags. Shipping weight is 3.5lbs.
The other great choice but costly choice is the old browning 22 . The rifle was also made 40 or 50 years ago by remington and copied by norico and all shoot to a level thats hard to believe. Great rifles. http://www.browning.com/products/catalog/firearms/finder.asp?f1=022B
