Thats how Theoben should have made their guns. They were good and still is, but they didn’t listen to the marked.

Thanks for letting me know!

Your "new" Rapid from Martin is gorgeous!!

Just purchased an AZ Rapid and it's at Martin's for a regulator rebuild. Now I'm wondering if I should upgrade mine, also!

Thank you, again, for the reply and for sharing your photos!
