    It seems Crosman is coming out with a new air rifle, the Benjamin Armada. They say it is based on an AR-type design, with a Magpul M-LOK modular accessory system.

    The press release is here: http://www.crosman.com/croswords/?p=4422&source=pepperjam&publisherId=43737&clickId=1066336817

    The first unit is decked out with all of the accessories and is being auctioned off to benefit the Navy Seal Foundation. That write-up is here: http://www.crosman.com/nsfauction?source=pepperjam&publisherId=43737&clickId=1066337920

    and also here: http://www.nrablog.com/post/2014/10...M-LOK-Air-Rifle-for-Navy-SEAL-Foundation.aspx

    and the Gunbroker auction site is here: http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=448762826

    I'm sure the S/N 1 gun is going to be too rich for my blood, but it will be interesting to watch once the whole production line gets rolling.

    That's sweet but I find it hard to justify spending more for an air rifle than I would pay for a real one. Plenty of fun to be had with 80-100 dollar pellet rifles. I have a savage .22 bolt gun that will drive tacks if I want to shoot further than what the pellet gun will allow. To me its like spending 1000'1 on remote control cars when for the same money you could have the real thing.

    Agreed. I posted the info because I thought it was cool. But a grand for an air rifle is too much for my wallet.
