Most companies get items out a couple of months after launch .... we have done that many times with our company. ... just the way it is, The development and production times always are longer than you planned on !

I wonder if this new barrel is interchangeable with the disco ... for a bit longer barrel and a threaded barrel for moderators.

wll

Should be.

Me personally I think the stock took a "Gluteus Maximus" turn, but a longer barrel for less I can deal... but to me it does look like bu**...

I was just getting ready to order a Disco, and I am glad I didn't. I actually much prefer this stock to a Disco wood stock, which I planned on replacing with a Boyds. It looks like there is more room for a power adjuster, or anything else you care to put there. I wonder what it will weigh?

I wish I had more stats too. I think Crosman did a very nice job in designing that stock, the cheek piece is very welcome in my eyes are are its other features ... not including its awesome price ... I really want to see the reports and I really want to handle one.

I'm hoping that the barrel is a bit longer, as gas gun barrels get more speed than shorter ones as the gas is expanding and not being pushed out like a barrel breaker.

Good times are ahead I think.

Might have to get my first PCP! I'd have to go with the hand pump. even 20 shots would be great with me. I have no problem with a synthetic stock. Let's see, I just ordered a new Crosman F4 yesterday.......then, if I got a Maximus, that would be what, eleven Crosman air guns? And, one Umarex, an old Daisy 747.

Cool beans! Looks like it's still based on the 2260, just like the Disco. I wonder if it's just the stock, or if anything has been left off vs. the Disco.

I orderd some parts from Crosman and while I had them on the phone, I asked when the Maximus would go on sale, the reply was sometime in May ( this year ).

Syncho de Mayo!!!

I am going to wait for the reviews. And if its positive I am going to buy one without a doubt and sell my X50 even cheaper than I already am.

Could be a very good first PCP for many. Time will tell.

Side note: Did you get the JSB's Jacob?

Been posted several times already today in various gates. I'm combining this one with my FIRSDT post about this in the PCP Gate.

I "WAS" in the market for a .177 Disco to go with my .22. Put me down for one of these Crosman.

Glad to see a pcp I can get behind. Not a bad looking gun but I love wood stocks. It would be nice if crosman offered it in error but then it would pretty much be a disco. But I'm guessing after market industry will explode over this gun

sure looks to me like it does.
Look closely at the bottom of the stock, forward of the trigger guard. See that little "notch" in the bottom of the stock ?,.. thats where the gauge is, Just like the Disco.

K.O. · « **Reply #59 on:** January 20, 2016, 01:30:53 AM »

Man I bet that if it has 2 extra inches it just might with some tuning toss the BBT .217-28/30-FN(BT) pretty good if no Harmonic probs...
maybe another barrel band by the breech for stability...
