Title: theoben rapid mk2 upgrades
Post by: grobe1458 on July 05, 2014, 12:26:43 AM
so after taking my rapid to the funshoot a week ago, I had to do something about the audible level. first I ordered the v type quickfill regulated.
installed that and modded the stock to fit. will eventually get a nicer stock in walnut.
so sitting around I had a extra marauder shroud set with baffles and a bulb went off.had to add some of the extra rainstorn baffles. to fill the void
installed it and wallah, backyard friendly and accurate as before.

I have to shave down the set screw to make it flush but so far it's working great.
will paint it to match and also get a new drill press as the one I had the chuck slipped off the spindle and caused a gouge that I cleaned up by making the cutout larger.
but it works and it hits like a brick
