Just wanted to post and thank everyone for the advice. Over the past few weeks I posted a couple of questions regarding my concerns about buying a mag.
Well, I received my minimag in the mail yesterday. Immediately, I was impressed by the obvious quality and time put into making this marker. Gassed it up, and was actually happy with how it shot out of the box - no chops and could actually pull "relatively" fast. There was a test-fire/chrono tape enclosed with the readings - only a .7 difference from the lowest to the highest f.p.s. in a 3 shot string! Granted, it is not "high-end", but I am satisfied it will serve me well on the field. The instruction manual was helpful and the video (cough...how about a DVD, Tom?...cough) was incredibly useful in helping me to have a good understanding of the marker. Wonder why "other, more complicated markers" don't offer this? Hmmmm....
Have this sneaking suspicion that this will end up replacing my 'Cocker as my primary marker. lol.
So now the "accesorizing" begins. Let's see I already have a PMI gas-thru, need a drop, new barrel, maybe an Intelliframe (I'm used to hinges on a 'Cocker), LvlX when it proves to be necessary......
Again, Thanks guys for not steering me wrong.
