I’ll have to give that post to me a sizable yawn
never said you were a broke ass bum just that I have enough dispoable income that I buy and pretty much do as I want
most folks who sing the praises of Discos and Marauders over other obviously better rifles tend to be constrained by cash and suffer one serious case of penis envy
thats what…Read more

everything is this way…
are top of the line snap on tools worth 30 times or more than Harbor Freight Chiwantainium tools?
AV gear, even pots and pans
sure, one can make do with lower end products but for me anyways I don’t have a woman lording over the family budget…my Hemi Chellenger was an impulse buy…was out here on the left coast…Read more

owned many discos, still own a couple Marauders but to make either do what I want and look acceptable to my eyes means I end up with well over a grand additional in the Maruader
for me discos were just a parts set for building PCP pistols
the Marauder while better than the disco in many respects still has about the worst ergonomics…Read more

that crap just takes every bit of the fun out of shooting for me…

you are spot on regarding folks being spoiled by other highend gear, particularly bottle guns…there is…Read more

I am one of those that does tend to piss a bit about products, particularly when the Fan bois are pimping wares they don’t own…hell likely have never even held muchless shot
the MAX isn’t, will never be close to an Edgun
then again the inverse is also true
the Edgun is a Lotus Elise, the MAX is more like my 2011 Hemi Challenger RT and to…Read more

for me “heavy” is a subjective thing and as I noted eight pounds is nothing in the world of firearms
as far as the full auto being unusable, thats extremely subjective, even Brad admits it is likely his technique. Folks need to STOP comparing these things to Edguns…Read more

the .40 has an enormous variety of projectiles going back to the various Maynard slugs of the 1860s and has a deserved reputation for extreme accuracy in the subsonic range
I own an original 1865 Sporting model percussion Maynard breechloader in .40-40 that if I do…Read more

tried to make that point some months ago however seemed to go no where with the anti JH trolls
internally some of his early rifles did leave a bit to be desired…same can be said for many early run production guns
my 1st run .22 Marauder was a serious lemon, the .25s I own now are far better products
