Title: 2013 Marauder
Post by: oleman on February 17, 2013, 05:57:19 PM

Saw where the 2013 Marauder is coming with a black synthetic stock. Any one know of any other new goodies like maybe a Green Mountain barrel like its 25 big brother. Thinking of getting an MRod but may wait for the new ones to see if there is any bell and whistles other than the stock.

Crosman says they just moved the trigger assembly backwards, but trigger blade looks different. The Breech has (4) securing bolts instead of three. The action from the pictures shown sits higher in the stock than the wood version.

The end cap piece where you adjust hammer tension is totally different, so that may have solved them problem of settings moving around..... I will buy one and take it apart to figure out what they did different

It might be an improved version.  I 'd go for it.

Was going to wait and get one but I saw the $100(yo) price diffence so it put it just a little out of my range. I went ahead and bought the current one.  Hope I didn't get the final (dying tooling) run of the 2012s.

I did the same thing. I wasn't gonna wait until July for the "new" gun/stock. Crosman also informed me that the "new" stock won't fit current models? Must be some changes in them? Ron
