Curious if the fortitude uses the newly designed Crosman barrels? Or did I just somehow miss that bit of info? 

 

[ChuckHunter]

Gotta love those love bugs!

What A newcence they have become in Florida...

Great video and I think with some tweaks a good little gun for tromping the woods. 

Hope I win but will probably buy one anyway to shoot and give to my brother...

Trying to get him interested in PCPs !

James from Michigan,

Oh and how rude of me. Thank you to all involved in the opportunity to win. Thanks to airgun nation for providing this to us all. Thanks also to Steve for all his hard "work" bringing us great reviews that are not only informational, but a pleasure to watch. I think we would all like to be your neighbor.

 

[JCD]

You need more bugs!

 

[armydmac15]

Thoughts on this compared to the Gauntlet?

 

[joe117]

thanks for the review. I have my list narrowed down between this one and the hatsan flashpup.

Thanks, Steve, for enduring thru all the "distractions" to bring this to us! As I approach 70 yrs. of age it's time to look for something lighter and less bulky than my .25 Marauder. For the type of hunting I do,birds rabbits rats and tree rats, this just what I've been waiting for. Not too expensive, light weight, not too pretty to take out into the brush and I already have a modified trigger unit I can pull off my old Discovery and pop it right in. Then I'm in business! Thanks to all the sponsers who are making this possible and good luck to all the members!----I do think it's already mine though!

Excellent review as always. Looking at one of these for my cousin’s kid. Figure it’s time for him to get a real gun. That daisy poweline hits the mark occasionally, but this would be a serious improvement. Got me leaning this way over the gauntlet for now. And I just thought the love bugs were bad here in Naples. 

 

[John "spysir" Blount]

Thank you.

EDIT- Yes I did forward past that, knew it should be there , great information-

Did I just miss the number of shots in the chrony string? Is there some point in the fill string that holds +/- 20fps?




TIA

Great video Steve. I particularly enjoyed the hand-pumping scene, though it would've been even better if you wore a workout outfit & a sweatband!

Damn those love bugs gave me the uggies, feels like they're crawling on me right now!

Both Southern Gunner and Airgun Depot compare the Gauntlet and the Fortitude:

As a $300 regulated PCP the only area it comes close to an advantage over the Gauntlet is the weight. With some work a decent 50 yard gun. 

But if I win I would be happy to make some improvements to it 

 

[Skip-in-WV]

Seems like it was made from spare parts. We'll see how it works out.

 

[Hess13X]

I was impatiently waiting for the fortitude to be released. Then the gamo Urban went on sale. So I bought it instead, and am perfectly happy with my choice.

 

[Kingquad]

Great review. 

 

[mfriar]

How do you turn up the reg?

 

[Richard4p]

 

Good review, lots of bugs.

 

[wapoley]

I think the weight is the big advantage.

 

[Jon86]

Great review as always. Happy with my Flash QE, need the Flashpup in .25 now, but wld be cool to win this.
