The flashlight is brighter then you can imagine ,don`t let the size fool you.
the sling if very comfortable too.
If anyone wants a scope mount and flashlight like mine here are the links.
2.75-inch Flashlight and Laser Universal Gun Mount (only $5.79)
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.5819
UltraFire C3 Cree 1xAA 1x14500 Flashlight (with Holster) $10.73

The prices can`t be beat at dealextreme,but you have to wait about a month to actually get the products you ordered in your hand. |

don't you trip out on how 50/50 balanced it is??......
soooo full size and soooo light.
lemme know what ammo yours likes. mine only eats beeman and EJ.
she's a fussy bee-atch that way.
have you done any adjusting yet? trigger anyway?
it's very easy. when i get time i'm goona drop mine to 1lb.
do it justice and put a proper HARRIS bipod on it.
with the sling... there should be and after market adapter
for a bipod/sling on the same swivel.
i have one on my ruger-mini-14.....
correction. the sling connection is on the bipod itself.
the bipod hooks on the same swivel.  |

Nice rifle Mid! Mine just arrived today. It does balance well, but to me it is heavier than I would like. I do alot of walking with my guns. I'm putting mine on a diet. I'm going to replace the reservoir with titanium tube. I'm still trying to locate some tubing remnants with the right specs. I'm also building a machined aluminum stock chassis that will accept AR15 furniture. I like the adjustability and ergonomics of the AR15 configuration. I finished the layout for it this afternoon so tomorrow the chips will fly. Just laying out the components, it's going to be a badass looking thing. I definitely don't want the neighbors to see it or I'll be facing down a swat team with a pellet gun. I'll post picks when I get something interesting to look at. I think I can shave about 2 lbs off the weight with careful use of titanium and aluminum.

Yeah it is so well balanced.
It also shoots better then I could have hoped for.
All I have shot is Crosman Premier`s and they are dead on.
I did some hunting yesterday.
Got 2 huge doves and a starling.
The no recoil let me watch everything through my scope.
The birds did not even twitch,they where d.o.i.
They dropped like lead ballons.
I don`t think its heavy,in fact its lighter then any springer I have owned and is about 5 inched smaller.
Nice and snug on my shoulder with the elastic sling.

Mid, you're killing me. I've got a full scuba tank sitting here and a new rifle. I've got 4 tins of test pellets, a new scope, and NO TANK ADAPTOR. The darn thing was backordered by Pyramid, but it shipped today. I know you just went through this with a pump

ya got a nice setup there. I don't have a light on mine. Lucky if I get to shoot in the day time if ya know what I mean. Mrods are great rifles. I couldn't wait got one in 177 and 22 cal to go along with both Disco's in 177 an22 cal. I haven't done any adj's on mine left stock or factory out of the box. Put a scope on 3-9x50 ao cp and shot some critters with them. Enjoy your new family member.  |

Very nice shooter Mid...... I'm really looking forward to picking one up in the coming year.For now my other addiction to 1/5 scale 2 stroke RC cars ate up my funds.They are on the expensive side...... I have built up an absolutely wicked Baja 5b for the upcoming racing season though...... I could have bought three Marauder's........  |

For shooting at night.
You can see everything clear as day out the scope when the light is on at night.
I am yet to do any night shooting though,but will soon.
Just been to dam cold here at night. |

I'm going to put a detachable Streamlight weapons light on mine too. This rifle is a very good option for dispatching problem raccoons, skunks, possums, armadillos, etc. Most all of them will be night time encounters. These new generation LED lights are incredible. I have some that fit the palm of your hand and put out more light than a 5 cell maglight. A little light like the one Mid has could easily illuminate a 50 yard target.
