    Exclamation What do you prefer? (Mrk1)Or(Mrk2)

    There’s a lot of hype about which guns best?
    Mark1, or Mark 2?
    Well I personally think the mark 1 myself, but what are your thoughts.

    Just remember before you post to this thread that the mark one just keeps going, and she has no regulator too.
    Plus the balance is better?
    Shall I go on?

    Whats your choice of gun.

    Ey up Craigy lad...

    I like the Mk1 (well, I would! )
    There not much of the original gun left now that I've had it Taylored to 30ft lb.
    I also have a CS Firearms barrel and an AWT silencer and hammer pip.

    Nice!!

    Pete.

    Just food for thought here?
    If you really want me to get teq.
    Well consider the mark 2 without a regulator, well due to the obvious that is?
    The curve would be enormous, and the mark one’s restricted main block would remove such ugly items from our presents.

    So consider that too.

    The mark 1 is so easy going, no regulator, and straight through air adapter.
    It a proper job for the hunter who wants an easy going gun that never fails on the regulator.
    I had two Rapid mark 2`s and they both failed on the regulator?

    Plus if you really wanted a mark 1 tuned to mark 2 spec, then I’m pretty sure you could get it tuned by Ben Taylor.


    Lets be truthful here?

    Why was the mark 2 made?
    Why? Well I think they made it due to the power curve given from the mark one, and all the complaints they got too.
    And when I say complains made, well I was one of them people who did complain too about the power curve hidden by theoben on the mark 1 rapid?

    And then all of a sudden? BANG theoben introduce a regulator for the mark 1 rapid to rid the curve.

    Mine was originally regged to do 80+ shots at 30 ft lb using Bizmagz in a 16'' tube.

    Now the barrel is 19''.
