Thanks for the replies so far. Ancient one, where did you get the ldc and how loud is it when it’s installed? That’s a nice looking rifle. I looked at the gauntlet before I bought the urban, IMO the gauntlet is a terribly ugly rifle. I’m function over form up to a point but couldn’t handle something I thought was that bad looking.
OK...I've laid off a Gauntlet because most of them (but not all) seem like gas-hogs. That's not real important to a tank or compressor filler, but for a hand pump filler it is. It's yopur effort going into the tank, so it doesn't seem to much to ask to get a reasonably return on that investment.Although QB's are not Gantlets (there are some mechanical changes besides just a repeater breech), I started with HPA conversions to QB's and have to wonder about the air use seen in most of the Gauntlets.With very few exceptions, I'm not thrilled...certainly not enough to re-visit the system just to get a repeater breech.
Both the brocock and outlaw look great to me and both seem to be what I had in mind, thank you again for the suggestions. Seems like the Diana is more expensive than the brocock but if I bought an ldc they’d be about the same price. I’m pretty sure I’m going to go either Diana or brocock, now I just need to decide which I like better...To answer an earlier question, I can’t say why I find the gauntlet so ugly as I actually like the looks of my urban. I think maybe it’s the pregnant belly look of it’s forearm?
Benjamin Marauder. Buy direct from Crosman on a Friday for free shipping. Use AGNATION code for 25% off for a price of $404 plus shipping. The most modded and documented rifle out there and worthy of the reputation. Your budget leaves room for any additional LDC or accessories.
The more I look at reviews and pictures the more I like the brocock but I have to say I’m pretty paranoid about ordering an ldc, I’ve read a LOT of bad stories about how ldc’s are BATF regulated etc etc. I live in MA and while Airguns aren’t considered firearms in my state it’s still difficult getting certain items shipped here. I’m not sure I want to take the chance of ordering the brocock and not being able to quiet it.Any of you have any first hand experience or knowledge about this?
