Why is the Benjamin Marauder called Prod? And what is Mrod?.. doe they stand for anything?
I'm still new to airguns, and this is confusing even after googling a lot

Benjamin P-Rod? Prod?

@Puppadore My thoughts are that the “-rod” in”Prod” speaks to the “-raud-” portion in Marauder. The -au in Marauder makes the same phonetic sound as the -o in Prod. Say them aloud and listen to yourself. As stated by others, the “p” denotes “pistol.” I understand when I see “Mrod” that it’s referring to a Marauder rifle as opposed “Prod” pistol. Simply using the word Marauder doesn’t specify one or the other in a question or conversation and can cause confusion. I don’t know where the temes originated, but that’s how I’ve managed to make sense of the them.

Thank you. I thought Rod has some sort of a meaning in air gunning world, but makes sense that it's just a shorter form or marauder

@Puppadore No problem. It may not be the best or most accurate explanation, but it makes sense to me. What’s important is knowing which term refers to which configuration of the Marauder.
