Gene beat me to it :-).  For the money, get a Marauder.  I've just about got my Pneuma sorted, although there's still an air leak I'm struggling with.  Not a bad gun, but once I get it all sorted out, it's going up for sale to fund a new Marauder.  I think I'd better get one before the price goes up :-).  Later.

Also if you read the 1 and only review, the guy says he is getting 1.5-2" groups at 40yds!  Yikes!  With a PCP you should not be getting more than 1" groups inside 50yds.  

I second Gene's commends about Turkish guns, from what I 've read elsewhere.  Turkish made guns are always going in & out of PA's Specials site.  They are not "moving" well at all.

Gotta disagree with that part of the review, this thing is plenty accurate with the right pellet.  The trigger doesn't help, but once you get that sorted out, it's capable of very good accuracy, under 1/2" at 30 yards, with the occasional one holer thrown in for good measure.  For the price, I'd still buy a Marauder in a heart beat, even if the power isn't quite as high.  Everything else I've heard says that that's the one to beat right now.  Later.
