Here is another pic with Fred Eichler having a go at it. Apparently, Ian Hartford is being sent one for an African Safari.I know what it is---it's a Zombie Apocalypse Air Ray Gun. The Z.A.A.R.G.
YUCH the FX styling department is not the ones to emulate
Thing looks like it weighs a ton.

Also, does the Herb Philipson's out in Rome have a Discovery or a Benjamin Pump? It's listed in our system here and I didn't get a chance to check stock at other stores.

Quote from: Regular Guy .25 on July 12, 2014, 02:17:14 AMWish they would build the M-Rod in .30 or .357. Better yet, offer the Disco in .25. All they gotta do is increase the fill pressure to 2500, and slap a .25 barrel and heavier bammer spring on there. Probably pay an extra $50 for it, and it would sell soooo fast. I imagine they don't because it would hurt sales of the .177 and .22...Doesn't the Mrod struggle to push a "lighter" weight King (25.4gr) 900+ fps without sufficing with a shot count of 10 or less ... (meaning something huge has to change with the platform to be able to push 50+ gr's at a usable speed ) for .30 and .357. Better off making an entirely new platform.

Fugley to You Fugley to Me; But the Kid's love that $#!T. Crosman needs Kid's to buy the "0" QC stuff They Sell at 100% Profit and Dreaming about that Fugley .357 "Stoked Man".....New World out there Mannnnn
For example, let's take the BT-65 and ugly it up. Viola, new synthetic Marauder. Let's take the AT-44 TACT and ugly it up. Viola, new prototype .357. Now if Hatsan would make a .357 I'd be on the waiting list.
