Mk1 rapid

[Fronteria]

What's a mk 1 rapid worth? Good condition, beech stock. May have the opportunity to purchase one. How do they compare to more modern pcps

Value of a MK1 Rapid 7 is around £500 in good condition.
My Rapid 7 calibre .22 is 20 years old unregulated, it has had one set of seals which I fitted and I changed the stock for a CS500 from Customstocks.
I run it at 11.2 FT.Lbs scanned target I shot with it at 30 metres.
I run a 400cc bottle and get around 300 shots from a 180 bar charge.

Just make sure it hasn't been tinkered with the wrong way. The basic design allows all sorts of naughtiness to be done to the Rapid 7. Ideally you want to shoot a good few shots through a chrono to get an idea of how it's running. Price for one in good condition & working properly around £550.
