| I just started back to air guns after retiring. I live near Canton just off I-20. I have 5 air rifles with my prize being a 22 cal Marauder. I also have an RWS 48 in 22 cal, A 22 cal GAMO, A Stoeger 177cal and a Benjamin NP Trail in 22 cal. I like the Marauder so much I ordered a shoebox compressor and a couple SCBA tanks a Guppy and a Tiger shark from Joe. |

| Welcome Tex! What is it about guys retiring and getting into airguns? lol We had one guy here that was 80 and just bought his first airgun. THey are loads of fun though. I'm glad I didn't wait to retire before I got mine. My 12 year old son is glad too. He loves them just as much as I do.Do you have any springers or just PCPs? |

Thanks Todd
I have 4 springers and just started the PCP route with a 22 cal Marauder. I did have air guns back about 30 to 35 years ago but they sure have changed |

| I like the 22 cal Marauder so much I am looking for a 25 cal to go with it. I am wanting a refurbished one. All seem to be sold out. No hurry the 22 is doing all I want and more. |

One guy I was talking to bought a 22 Maurader. Then he bought a 25 Maurader ... he says he would only buy a 25 from now on.
I'm glad I don't have any 25 cals ... I would most likely have to buy more !!  |

| I plan in the long run to have all three. 177, 22 and 25. I have plenty of kids and grandkids that love to shoot. Nothing like hitting a spinning target at 50 yards. The Marauder does it without any problem. Love it |

I was really impressed with the "lack" of report those things have ... very nice rifle for sure !! But I will say this ... my 850 cycles rounds way easier than his. I have to operate the bolt on purpose with his rifle ... not sure why though.
About two days after my son got his ... I got stupid and knocked it over and scraped his barrel on our retaining wall in our back yard ... when I got my 850, I asked him if he wanted to scrape mine up in return |
