Bought a bit of a scrappy Rapid today ....
It`s a Mk1 in .22 (haven't shot this calibre for many years)
It is a little rough around the edges with a few rust spots on the barrel and moderator but over the chrono this evening it is surprisingly consistent.  :)
I am happy to put a few quid into it to bring it back to a little glory if needs be but at the moment i will probably just use it as is and enjoy it.

nice project gun.

Nice find.
Im sure it will make a nice project in time.
Look forward to how it is in the fields.

Nice one, I'm sure you will get up running sweet  8)

I have ordered a couple of Darko mags as the aftermarket one that came with it is effecting accuracy with poor bolt to pellet alignment  :(

I have a rough ish block to start on gonna need a few bits to get it going wanted ads incoming 👍🤣

A scrappy rapid is still better than most other makes out there, in my opinion. Ken.

I converted it to .20 using a Silco blank that was machined to fit, a Dr Bobs probe and a Dr Bobs adjustable bolt to make things easier to set up in the breech. Also bought a couple of Darko mags for it.
Then had a moment of madness and sold it on  :(

YOU SOLD IT WHY!

:'(

That would have made a nice project JPS.
I guess you have your reasons as to why you sold it.
