Gang,
I have this Mendoza RM-2000 I'd like to sell (.22 Cal, 7 pellet auto loader, rear aperture sight). I have only put 15 rounds through her to sight her in. She shoots really well with iron sights, the auto loader works perfect (only used Benji domes and they fit nice and snug in the breech) and she's still practically new. I received her the other day after waiting months for the drawn-out exchange process to take place through a vendor. I'm currently extremely pre-occupied with my Panther and already know this RM-2000 will sit on the rack for awhile. I'd rather sell her and use the money towards some parts/accessories I'm thinking about for my RWS.
There's one little thing I noticed about her when I was wiping her down after shooting and you'll see it in the photo. There's what looks like a tiny pit on the surface of the barrel. I'm not sure what caused that or what they did but it's completely cosmetic and function isn't affected. Box/Paperwork is all included.
You'll see this listed on another classifieds for higher - this price is for the members of GTA.
Price: 110.00 Shipped. SOLD

Ever chrony it?

Sorry no. It does seem to hit a little harder than my Panther right now (knocks my trap back) but it's still really early and needs a break-in.

It's a tempting offer Jay, but the Mendoza RM-600 I returned to PA suffered pellet inconsistancy. I loved to power, heft, and balance it had, but many different brand pellets fit too loosly in the breech,..or through the barrel entirely. It's a shame too,...I really liked that gun. Another thing that didn't jive with me....where do you purchase Mendoza brand pellets from?!?!?! If it weren't for Mendozas' questionable barrel/breech tolerances with pellets, I'd swipe it up right now. Scarred up or not!!!! tjk

Yeah I hear ya on that; I followed your thread on that gun. This prompted me to try out a few different brands for fit a few minutes ago and here's what I can tell you. Benji domes, CPHPs and Predators drop in with ease and stop flush with the breech. I couldn't get them further in with force using my finger tip like I can with my panther and other guns I've loaded. Gamo Hunters fit nice and snug to where I need to apply a little bit of pressure to get it all in. None of the pellets even came close to falling through at all. I have shot an RM200 and that one had a loose fit to where pellets could fall through. I guess with the Mendozas you either get a decent one or you don't; and rarely a perfect one from what I've read from others as well. There always seems to be something about them, whether it's the pellet fit, finish, stock or even some where the rear sight screw holes were drilled so deep they came into the barrel.

I am interested! I have shot one of these before and they're interesting.
