Behold the Motorhead Marauder

[Duckfish]

Well it says Marauder on the side. Scott built 3 of these special gen 1 jewels. There’s a story behind each one. When I was lucky enough to get this one he told me he built it to keep the $2000 guns honest. I’m sure Frank and Scott will be along in a while and hopefully elaborate on the subject.

Very nice looking gun!!
So now the question is. How honest is it keeping the $2,000.00 guns?
Accuracy? Power? Cost?
Not starting an argument, just curious of the cost to value perspective.

I think he built these about 2016.

It is set up for Field Target. 870 fps with 10.3 JSB’s came with several tins from same lot. Ton of shots, huma reg, the gauge shows reg pressure not tank. Scott’s custom hammer and spring set up. Lord knows what else. Bunches of secret Motörhead dust. How serious of a shooter is it? Just ask.

Tomorrow is my range day I’ll try my best to get print some nice targets to post.

Nice rifle! Scott is known for good stuff.
You do know that the .22 Aguila won't fit in your magazine, right (JK).

As above, if Scott has given his blessing to that rifle, then it is a known quantity.

It certainly looks the look as well!
Congrats.

While it might have marauder label but it’s anything but, kinda like a sleeper swapped beater to embarrass fancy Porsches with.

Ed (Duckfish) is well aware that Scott copied my Marauder and built his own and one for his buddy.
I sold my three Marauders with Boyd stocks to Cameron when I left the darkside.
Scott did tune my Marauder at 885fps with 10.34…

The proof:
My Marauder on my shooting cart.
I still have the cart:

Beautiful! After having Scott do work for me on a couple of occasions, I would categorically trust him with about any project.

Congrats!

I bought two of those marauders from Cam one red one blue - unfortunately the length of pull was too long for me so I sold both @AimenStraight

Not to sidetrack the thread but to date of all my high end airguns my Crossman HFT challenger scores the highest - why? Because, in the end, a gun/platform has to work with and for a shooter who will always be limited by their skills and body and training. That hasn’t stopped me from my quest! I am a big believer in pro tuners!!!

Beautiful Gun

 

[Motorhead]

Dang ED, You picked up that rifle what 3-4 years ago ? ( Was a very good friends FT rifle who passed away during the covid pandemic )
It was just one of DOZENS done in about those years for different folks around the country.
No I did not COPY Franks rifle as I had Done Franks rifle using the same recipe of parts & pieces, prep etc ... All the builds for others were R&D designed AFTER building & fine tuning my personal Gen 1 .177 that I still own to this day. The EGG did come before the Chicken in this case

 

[AimenStraight]

The markings on the stock of mine match up to @Frank in Fairfield rifle that is pictured in the cart. This is thing shoots amazing. The guys at my club would love to get their hands on it. They called it the (super gun)
