Well shot just over 3,000 shots, and Ol # 67 seems to be tired. It wont shoot. thought it may be locked up so I de gassed it . No luck. removed the jammed pellets and tried dry firing it and it seems as if more air is going out the back than out the barrel. Obviousy something failed. Bummer, will call Crosman tomorrow and see what they say........

I know how frustrating that can be.Ask them to overnight it to and fro.And also maybe they will send you an extra clip.They did me and i was a jerk.
Sorry to hear that,they will get you straightened out though.

So was the air coming from the bolt, or inside the gun?

It was coming from somewhere inside the gun, I really couldnt figure it out. I thought maybe it was locked up , but it wasnt. it would cock, but very little air would come out of the barrel, when I fired it .. Air was coming out of the breech, but even that I couldnt be for sure. It was very dificult to really determine exactly where the problem was, but it felt like the leak was most probably coming out the adjustment hole....
I was told that I would get a phone call when they worked on it , and they would let me know what they found ?????? I will post whatever I am told........

Forgot something very important, When the gun jamed , it had a pellet in it. ( actually more than 1) I know I should have removed it or them first , before I started fiddiling with it, but I didnt. I put the degassing tool in, and when I screwed it in. The silly thing fired full force. Good thing it was facing down range. I honestly thought it would be safer to empty the air chamber, then un jam the pellet . I am sure glad I wasnt fiddling with the silly thing in the house. I am over 50 and still doing the stupid !!!!!!!!!!!

Crosman got my gun and fixed it today ! Somehow a meetering screw closed off the air, The tecnician that helped me was fantastic, he listened to me, He set up the gun for me. and he treated me the way a person should be treated. As far as the screw goes I dont know what happend, but I am sure the problem is fixed. He also said he would put blue loc tite on it so it won't ever happen again. The Loc tite was my request. Now once again I hafta wait, for the silly thing to come home !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did you have it set up differently than stock? If so it would be interesting to hear your feedback once you get your Marauder back.
