Ataman Ataman AP16 Compact .177 Arrived

Putting the semi-auto of the gk1 aside, (I understand that's a major difference of the 3). I'm looking for compactness and stopping power for a small game hunter. (squirelling while out with the dog, backpacking, etc.)
Overall size/dimensions vs fpe, ease of use/maintenance, durability is also a big concern. Quality of materials, etc....
So, the smallest most reliable with the highest fpe. Which would you choose?
 
Back on topic, picked up a nice red dot for the AP16

I bought that adapter for my AP16 as well. It fit perfectly, was machined nicely and the anodizing looks good, but that long tang across the front interferes with access to the cocking lever. I removed it with a saw and and filed it smooth. Some Birchwood Casey's Aluminum Black or even paint would change the raw aluminum, but I left it as a close match to the gun's finish.
