I don't really like the stock on the Rapid 7. And I think the Steyr would be more impressive to look at.  |

Now Kanyon, this old boy hasn't made it to the "dark side" yet. But, if I was in yer fix, I'd have to ask meself what the primary use would be, target or huntin.
Good luck,
Amigo |

Hahaha, then don't mention it!
They don't go around used as much as Theoben's either, right?  |

Those bottles are pretty damn ugly!
My opinion, go with the MFR, 17-shot magazine. |

Very true. They have dissimilar power levels, and might be suited to different purposes.
On looks alone I would go for the MFR. That bottle and truncated fore end look like an afterthought. |

I like the MFR...300 shots per fill could
hunt all day..but the 12fpe may aswel use
a springer and hunt all day...
The rapid 7 is prob better for what I use
air guns for and 100 shots at 30fpe an't to bad..
better than most PCPs..but a bolt action single shot..
Wonder if yer can power up the MFR to around 20fpe
and retain something like 150/200 shots per fill..  |
