    WIN a Benjamin Fortitude .22 regulated PCP and more!!

    Impressive. I have a Marauder and after seeing the video I am confident that the Fortitude would perform just as well. I do a good bit of nuisance pigeon control and sometimes I have to carry the gun quite a distance to access areas where they roost. I would appreciate an ultra light version...
