    Another Rapid thread.

    Well some saw i bought a sorry Rapid 7 a while back....well i sorted out the bottle issue and its still got no mag....but i have had my first session with it.....what a session!!
    I didn't think i was going to like it 'that' much but after watching 8 of my first 10 go through the same hole at 30 yrds i think its a cracker...bit fiddly to load without a mag, but it dosen't take long to find a knack.....

    Magazines are available.

    Dr Bob did start making them, Michael Tawn imports them from America.

    Dr Bob is the way to go.
    I had 2 Theoben originals that were .5mm different thickness & the thicker was not interchangeable between 2 rifles
    i do use the Crosman Maurder Mags (177 & 22) as well from usa, these work perfectly well & cost about £13 delivered via ( if you can find them ) I note Ramsbottoms are selling same ones for £25.99

    those crossman mags are not a direct fit, you have to pad the bottom of the mag a couple of mil by gluing some plastic on the bottom

    or padding your slot out....sounds painful..lol

    Insert from the r/h side but the will be sort of upside down, no packing req
    if ordering from usa or non EU, make sure the package is marked under £15 value or the PO & HMRC will have a large waddage of beer tokens from you
