Well here it is. First the details on the inside:
15.5″ accurized barrel
Custom built baffle pack
Titanium air tube
Custom valve
Aluminum clad polyurethane transfer tube
Regulated air supply with engineered air chamber
Low volume air gauge block and improved ,with machined nylon bezel
Machined aluminum “muzzle brake”

Adjustable grip position and LOP
Collapsed length: 32.75″

Now for a few pics:
That titanium air tube is incredibly light!
“Nuttsac” carbine length:
Light weight and well balanced:
Relocated, larger, shrouded pressure gauge:
Just a handful of rifle:
Now for chrony and performance results from the builder:
“ My work with your rifle is done. I’ve put probably 600 rounds through it, and I am happy with the outcome! The best tuning that I could find was with the stock hammer spring all the way weak, and the hammer stroke turned in 6 turns. The transfer port restrictor is wide open. Using Crosman CP brown box ammo the gun is clocking 815fps for just over 30 shots. It is running about 810 at shot 30 and by shot 32 it usually gets down to 795 or so. Three honest magazines at 815 fps from a carbine!!! If this were a full size air tube it would be getting 50 shots. That is from an honest 3000psi fill, not an overfill.
The accuracy is also good. With a dirty barrel, a 4X bugbuster scope, a variable cross wind and a makeshift rest, the CPs were shooting penny sized groups at 20 yards. That’s without culling ammo or anything! With a better scope, clean barrel and the usual attention, I’d be real surprised if you don’t get below dime size at 20 yards. I think one ragged hole is very possible.
The shot fps consistency is excellent. The total spread in the 30 regulated shots is from 820 to 812. Less than 1% deviation! “
Like the man said, I don’t think a guy can ask more from a short barrel carbine at 33″, and 5 1/2 lbs, balanced to perfection. It’s not a 100 yard rifle, nor is it set up for heavy pellets. The Vincent regulator is set at 1800 psi. This will bitch slap anything I ever shoot at here in the mountains. Due to the trees and hills, a 50 yard shot is considered long distance. Most stuff crops up at about 75 to 100 feet, usually less.
I’ll put a black nylon sling on it and a good scope.
It’s a bit noisier than the stock Marauder, but then what isn’t? It’s still quiet enough to be neighbor friendly and that’s all I need for my evil deeds. Since it’s custom everything, he’s sending me spare parts on all wearable items. I should be set for life.
Now, if I could only SEE!!!
I have good hopes. The doc said we caught the right eye in time and it should come back near 100%, but it will be next winter at least.
The builder isn’t making any more rifles. He had to sell his equipment and is going to change trades and start a new life elsewhere. Good luck to him. He’s a perfectionist and that plays well in any profession.

PS: Of course I’d sell it. EDIT: $3612.00 shipped. Next PM gets it. Too many offers came in at once and crashed the server. Try again…operators are standing by!

Grit, I already have hair on my back, growing in my ears, coming out my nose, all over my ass, and none on my head….
Ah hell….I had hairy palms one year after I reached puberty anyway.
And further, sex with yourself doesn’t really count, unless you put lipstick on the outside of your thumb and forefinger….or so I’ve been told by people that know about such things.
Did you know Mamcrackin developed an inexpensive fix for your unit to eliminate “Pecker Ping” and “Monkey Slap”. Absolutely no noise at all at high spm’s (slaps per minute). Some kind of silicone tubing he found.
Wok might produce them for sale, if enough demand is indicated!

Hey Man that is one good looking Rifle, my 3 m’s don’t look like that. You guys come up with some outstanding guns.
And yep I’m sure sorry about the eye problem, hope you get well.
You may be on to something there….
I’m hoping you are referring to the rifle. Otherwise, good luck on coming out of the closet on this particular forum!!! You won’t catch much slack from this twisted group of perv’s, myself included! 🙄

That is a sweet machine dude!
I still say you ain’t right! 😉
Very nice conversion Hoot. Sweet !
later
You forgot Stephen Hawking, Ludwig van Beethoven, and Vice-Admiral Lord Horatio Nelson, who like you, suffered a wounded right eye.
Gimmick 😯
Abe Lincoln, Ghandi, Mother Tresea, Budda, Hitler….we all caught hell for one thing or another. It’s a hard world out there.

Hoot, for someone who’s disabled, you sure catch a lot of flak.
Oh God, not another Wok Butt cuming!

My doctor told me that was a myth. If you change hands on a frequent basis, your vision will not be affected! He said the current research has indicated only men who don’t have frequent sex are likely to go blind….being married 43 years, that explains a lot!
Hoot 😯
Doesn’t really explain a thing because having “sex” with yourself still counts as SEX! So quit spanking the monkey otherwise you’ll be blind with hairy palms!

Therefore your use of the word moron in the plural sense is just as
moronic as the “EYES” in which you so adimately abhor…. 😉
And just to ease your mind. I was vasectomized <— Not actually a
word, years ago…
HEY!!! Who you calling a “moronic”??? For your information, a Moronic is a practicing Mormon. Let’s keep this on the personal insult level, and avoid religion!
As for you getting vasectomized, I don’t see how cutting off your foreskin stops you from breeding outside your species! (I didn’t know you was Jewish!)
