Good point William...We see so many jump on the next greatest sub $300 and complain because it don't suit their expectations.The experience is already here, all one needs to do is look for it.I remember when the Fortitude was the talk of the town... first came the wait... then the poor reviews.Then the Gen2.... I waited and waited. Until 2 days ago a gen2 popped up on the classifieds and a went for it.I've owed the Disco, the Maximus and the Mrod. I really craved for something that had a little bit of all 3.I'm hoping I find that in this Forty.Now, the Prod may have hit all the marks but, that price tag chased me away.

The Maximus is CHEAP, but is made here and does come with 5 year warranty.
Fortitude in .22 arriving tomorrow. I have 2 modified maxies. One in .22 and one in .177. The .22 has the ACCustoms repeater breech. Both have Boyds stocks. When all said and done, the .177 will go back to stock form and probably move on down the road.

Curious which shape and colors you went with. I’m leaning toward nutmeg and maybe one of the varmint stocks.
