What is wrong with me?????
« on: July 07, 2009, 11:17:20 AM »


I have been agonizing over spending the money.
I have been looking at both the BSA Lone Star
and the Marauder in .22.  I am wanting good groups at out to 50+ yards and
plenty of power. I know the BSA is a killer but has a few draw backs.



The Marauder has the accuracy and power needed.
It also has the built in moderator,(not another  100.00 add on).
10 shot clip so you don't have to reload every shot.
It also has a lower fill pressure and the same fill adapter as my
Disco so my scuba tank set up is already set up for it.



I am sure I have decided on the marauder.
So whats the problem?
 



My di-lemma is this,
My wife told me I can get it,
no problems.
She said "you are the one who makes the money so get what I want."
Thats not the problem....



I cant hit the buy button.....
Is it because I will soon have my disco back and after a fresh tune, barrel band
and powder coated full barrel shroud I will be happy with it?



Is it im just to cheap to spend the money.
I have 300.00 worth of check to me just setting here on my desk.
I have someone about to buy my TX200 MK111 for 460.00 shipped.
I have the money but whats my problem???????



I can get the LoneStar, Like new in box .22 for 495.00 total shipped.
I can get the Marauder .22 $494.00 shipped.
I have great deals but I have somekinda perverted buyers remorse or something.
I just cant figgure me out.



1. I have the money.
2. I have the Go ahead and moral support from my wife.
3. I have the gun selected.





Beats me, I am at a loss at this point.

You are just having second thoughts. I'd say keep your extra money for now and just wait for your Disco to come.

Paul,if your looking for power & accuracy out to 50 yards, why not go for the same performance out to 75 plus yards & go for The Blizzard,then you'll have it all,,,50 yards..no problem....75 yards....hmmmm, still no problem!!! :o  Just figure I would throw a wrench in the mix,after all it's part of the addiction!!! :p   GOOD LUCK!

Have someone hit the buy button for you.  I know how you feel.  I just go ahead and order what I want and deal with guilt later.  Guilt for what?  I don't know, lol.

The Blizzard wasn't reviewed well by someone I read.  The Marauder has gotten great reviews.  I get mine next week, lol.

Marauder is made in America. That is not the be-all, end-all, but when things are a dollar apart, I would call it a tie-breaker.



The reviews generally reflect my own experience- freakin' excellent.



Julieshoot also gave me "permission" and she really digs it. Marauder = chick magnet.
