If you order a RAW, you are going target for the most part. Yes RAW says hunting or target but the reality is if your hunting with a RAW you are doing so with a rest which I do 100% of the time including my BP Wildcat as well.

What happened to the stock, action and barrel post for the RAW?? I was getting a lot of info and then their gone.... Are those post against AGN's policies? Why?

Thanks! I'd still like to know how AGN works. If it's a sponsor's forum, I see little value in this or any forum that doesn't allow the exchange of information.

Its quite simple Mr Crutcherro… RAW is not a sponsor here yet.
Those 3 posts were copied and pasted word-for-word from another forum where RAW is a sponsor. Those posts were clearly designed to promote and advertise specific products.
If and/when RAW completes their sponsorship those 3 posts will be “unhidden” or rewritten depending on which direction Martin wants to take it.

"depending on which direction Martin wants to take it"
Martin's never posted, I'd wager a good amount he never will, not on this forum or any other. I didn't know "Mr Crutcherro" had made the useful post on options, didn't even know his name, no mention of being a dealer or such ( not that I recall anyway) . I don't know of anyone who has ever purchased a rifle from Mark, may well have happened but who the heck knows he is a "dealer"? Shame Precision Air ( an RAW dealer) didn't take the time to post such helpful information, as they are a sponsor the post would have been fine, correct?
Really a shame.

Agreed I took it only as helpful information on the options available, not advertising,
almost the same as giving a review with pictures. I would guess this video sold
dozens of rifles for RAW but that doesn't make it advertising, same goes for
Ted's reviews as well as your own, if a person likes a gun they will tell someone else about it, that's the whole point of
forums is to inform people about whats available.
now if it was RAW I would better understand you view, but to my knowledge it was not.

I'm a little confused? There are only 3 air gun companies that are sponsors of AGN. Crosman, Edgun and Brocock. But I see a lot of posts and videos of other brands? I know some of the dealers that are sponsors, carry a lot of different brands of guns. Like spysir posted, one of the forum sponsors does list the RAW guns? But its not my forum so carry on.

I recently ordered a RAW TM 1000x and then when I saw the video of the factory, I was even more glad that I did. Now I'm afraid that I'm going to have to replace all my rifles with RAW ones!!!

I just ordered a new RAW HMx .357 (130 fpe regulated) with a Forest laminate thumbhole stock and adjustable cheek piece (https://www.rapidairweapons.com/xcart/product.php?productid=17762). I also ordered a spare bottle (16 regulated shots per fill). Yes, that's right, the new RAW .357 comes with field-swappable bottles! That means true .22lr rimfire ballistics with 32 regulated shots in the field. Martin and Sandra are wonderful. This RAW HMx .357 is so new, there isn't an order form on-line yet. Martin and Sandra were kind enough to hook me up via e-mail. Martin even threw in a free mag since I bought an extra one 
. There is a 10 week lead time, but it's worth it. I've been waiting for this rifle ever since I got into airgunning. I had to sell my FX Impact to afford her, but she's the only one I would want to shoot anyway. Plus, she's made in the good 'ole U S of A!
