All of the above.
I enjoy shooting but I enjoy tinkering more, if I had a gun that shot perfectly and need nothing doing other than a charge of air and a change of battery, I would get bored with it really quickly.
Other than the RAW (which is a rapid with a side lever) the only gun I would consider is a steyr, which is old tech and user serviceable, it even makes a rapid look pretty.

Interesting read guys, I didn't like the Rapid when it first came out but it did improve looks wise or maybe I got use to it.
I got one of the last factory ones from the Theoben seized stock and after that I had to have more, ended up with seven.
My favourite is the MFR, it just feels right and does everything you ask of it.
The only comparable gun on the market is the HW100 but then my one is heavily modified.
So is it fair to say that the majority of us feel that the current prices Rapids go for is reasonable compared to what else is out there, both new and old? Although prices seem to have increased over the past 18 months I still think they represent good value for money.
