Hynzie is right....... Ask to have your trigger set to the way you like it. I like mine light but hunters want a heavier trigger. You may already know this but the $35 picatinny bipod rail adapter is helpful. Also if you don't want 3 magazines ask to get the second one half price offer, with the purchase of a new gun. One more thing, if the CMOS/offset moderator is available for your gun/caliber, you can choose that. When I asked what was quieter they indicated that the standard one was. The bigger calipers are a bit loud. so take that into consideration.

All good to hear. I did discuss with Martin 3 weeks ago about the trigger and wanting it light. My hi-power and small bore silhouette guns are set around 6 oz and that is what I'm use to.
I opted for the poly barrel and the offset moderator as loudness is not an issue for me. I'm going to discuss the magazines when Sandra calls to let me know it is ready. I have the rail adapter on my original order.
Three weeks ago Martin told me that he was building the next batch and that mine would be in that batch. He was preparing the material for that batch when he reached out for my preferences on barrel, moderator, and trigger.

What is the deal with magazines? “If you don’t want 3 ask for the second one half off”. I am trying to get as educated as I can before ordering. Kind of like going to a new restaurant, I want to be able to study the menus before the waitress comes so I don’t have to ask a bunch of questions before I make my choice.

I'm sure this is all subject to change. This was offered on both my RAWs. Sandra at RAW gave me the option to buy one extra magazine and get one free. This makes a total of three including the magazine that comes with the rifle. She also gave me the option of getting one extra magazine at half off. This makes a total of two including the magazine that comes with the rifle. This special offer is only with the purchase of a new gun.

Thanks, Dirte, I understand.
On a separate note, has anyone tried the polymags? Do they fit in the magazines? Are they accurate?

The only thing I know about the polymags which is hear say is that a former member(haven’t heard from him in a long time)had the HMx .357 and he said he pulled the tips out of the polymags and said they worked, other then that I have no actual experience with them except in my BullDog.

Polymag's were tested as soon as they came out. They may suit you but the official verdict was if you want the best accuracy use the standard JSB.

edit; this regarding polymag's in .35 only

Thanks SMH77.
I have it in .25 cal.
i totally missed it on the scope rings.... i have a Hawke Airmax 30SF to mount and did not see that the gun was a weaver mount upper.
I ran down to the local gun shop and picked up the only set of weaver to 30mm rings that they had. They only had medium height which is a bit too short. Not a big issue now as i can still shoot single shot as the magazine will not fit with the medium rings.
I'll get some chrony readings tomorrow. snow flakes are keeping me from going outside too much tonight. I did after sighting in the scope shoot about 30 rounds and was consistently shooting 1 hole groups at 50 yds in heavy snow. It was real hard to see as good as i wanted. Tomorrow i'll go back to my sons facility and be shooting inside at 45 yds .
The trigger is exactly as requested. 6-7 oz and a smooth crisp break point. As i mentioned earlier this gun is a real piece of art work, the workmanship is second to none. I'm feeling good that another is in the works possibly .30 or .357. Christmas bonuses are coming out at work next week. Martin has created another monster.

crgabel, if you shot groups, what were the results? I ask because if the 25.4 gr at 995fps are accurate, THAT is a game changer. Can you post pics of groups with both weights?
PS, get closer to the screen, Ebay has swaged hollow point airgun pellets/bullets, I got the 33gr(free shipping) $20, and 34.7gr hp $26.99 + shipping, 100 in each pack.
I contacted a member that has an HMx .25 poly that shoots the HP`s. When she arrives, I have weights from the low twenties up to that 34.7 to test.

I'll try to get back tomorrow for more shooting using the 25.39 gr. as well. I want to see that also. I'll mark the targets with the pellet weight and type.
EDIT: All groups posted today were 1/2" or under shot from the same tin which were the 39.95 gr King Heavy MKII
Not sure what you are asking for when you said this. "PS, get closer to the screen"

crgabel, that was spell check, we do not get along. It was meant to be funny. Spell check ruined it.
