What if you had all the ammo you could want for.
what if you had all those things ?Hmmmm,...well, I suppose the next thing would be to make sure the window was lubed and in good operating order,... get a chair set up as the perfect height to the bench,... maybe add an A/C , fridge full of favorite beverages, stereo to the garage,...maybe a spotting scope, nice camera,.....get the smoker going with some nice brisket,... and then call tri-5-ron, telling him that we are all set up and ready to go.
Haha, this is fun. But seriously, I'm just fishing for good intel. See, I have hemmed and hawed about PCP for months now. I've had my eye on a Marauder for quite awhile, even before I joined GTA. Now in a short time, like maybe less than a month, I will have the money to do it right. Shoebox, pancake compressor, and of course the gun. I want a rig I can rely on and enjoy for years to come. You guys probably remember me griping about how expensive it is, yada yada. I enjoy other forms of air guns, but to me this is the logical powerplant for serious shooting. So now I am doing some meticulous homework. I want to make the right moves. I have plans for what I want my range to be. I will have room to do a little competition style shooting and I may find myself pesting and maybe a little hunting. I am moving into a new place with an acre and a half of land, woods behind, and big fields just to the north. An air gunners dream really. So why not have a gun that I can take advantage of the opportunities I will have? Look out, I am coming to the Dark Side if all goes well! Better make some cookies. I love chocolate chip!

I am not putting the Marauder (are any other gun) down. It is what it is.My advice is to buy a better built gun. Yes it will cost more, but will be worth it and save you money in the long run on buying a second (better) gun.Now with that said, we all know nobody can be happy with one gun.The Dark Side is strong. There is no since in fighting it.And you better not get any cookies before I get mine. WHERE ARE MY COOKIES!
Marauder...good.Put a melting pot on that bench, stock up a nice lead and tin pile, and put a few 25 cal molds on the shelf. While we're at it, the garage oughta have a mill with a good stock of tooling, and a lathe to keep it company.Then make the range 100 yards, cause a marauder shooting boolits is waaaay more capable than just 50 yards.Top it off with Crosman customer service on speed-dial to get more bits to play with...LOLcheers,Douglas
Well, this is why I am investing some research time. What do you suggest as a better built gun?
