Finally bought my first PCP

[jonny75904]

Took the plunge tonight, i sold off my Springfield XD 9mm and put the money up for a Benjamin Armada. After 6-8 months of over analyzing everything, I concluded that the Marauder is the best place to start. But then I started looking to accessories and realized the hunting rifle platform doesnt really have any spots to attach stuff, and the Armada has a few places to attach stuff. My shooting style favors a bipod etc.

Thank you everyone for being so awesome and helpful. This forum is truly a happy place on the web. I will be posting some pics soon.

Way over-analyzing everything. Analysis Paralysis! Welcome to my world. I spent months deciding on my first PCP (Marauder). My requirements ended up being something like:

.22 Caliber
​accurate
​price can't break the bank
reliable
adjustable - Learning Platform.

​The Marauder (And Armada too) fit all that and more.

Welcome to the addiction

Congrats and pics are a must...


Just a FYI...I sold my SCAR 17 to fund my HMx .357 regulated to 130ft/lbs, sometimes a person just has to do what they need to do...

I went with .25 cal with optics and bipod - Crosman didnt seem to have the magpul edition anymore, but im sure I will survive.

Now i just gotta find air or I won’t have a gun

That's an awesome rifle! Well hell they both are I think you made the wise choice.

Awesome starter, the accuracy of the MRod is as good as the high end stuff. Trigger is about all it lacks. I say this from using and being around 6 Mrods along with 3 daystates that have over 2k invested in each. Mrod will perform easily to 100 yards especially in .25 cal. Congrats and welcome to the sickness. And yes air is a must, pick out which powder burner will go next to fund a compressor and tank. Lol

Several years ago, I was in the Phoenix area spending the winter close to my grandson,s residence. When it came to choosing my first serious air rifle I spent 2 1/2 hours at AOA with my grandson and walked out with an FX400 - a choice I have never regretted. The people at AOA were very patient and allowed us to view and often fire several airguns 
Since that time I have purchased five more high end air guns either directly from AOA or Jim Stenis at Precision Air but I will always remember that first visit to AOA with my grandson.
