Benjamin Crosman Marauder Magazine (Multi-Shot Clip Holds 10 .177 Calibre Pellets)

The Unarex website does not list a factory available magazine for their .177 Gauntlet PCP Rifle.After searching Amazon I found this magazine for a Benjamin Maurauder that looked identical to my Umarex mags. I took a chance that they might work in my Gauntlet and yes, they are an exact match. Within moments of my order arriving I loaded up the magazine and ran 10 shots through the magazine and it worked flawlessly. I'm very happy! I can now compete in a 30 round match at my gun club without stopping to refill each magazine. I only wish it was offered in a two pak.

I had purchased a Umarex Gauntlet .177 pellet rifle and the unit only shipped with 1 magazine.I could not locate OEM magazines anywhere, I even emailed Umarex USA several times with no updates.Finally another Umarex employee stated that the .177 magazines will not be restocked 😡After checking around everyone said this Benjamin marauder magazine will work.Looking at both magazines side by side no noticeable differences between them.Loading and using is pretty much the same between them and so far no issues.I purchased 4 and I might reorder because there is no such thing as enough magazines.

Easy

Crosman got it right the first time. These magazines work flawlessly and click right into place on the Marauder. One tip: The Crosman instructions leave out a detail regarding loading the magazines. They tell you to lift the cover slightly to get over the "bump" detent and rotate it around. What they don't tell you is that you've got to lift the cover and push it over that bump a second time in order to get that first pellet in and lock the rotor in position. If you don't do that you'll leave an empty slot and have a 9 shooter instead of a 10-shooter.

These work. So why just 3 stars?One star subtracted for the price. For what this is, they should cost max $10. Not $15 to $20 they charge.And another star subtracted because the Marauder rifle clip holds 10 rounds, and the Marauder pistol clip holds 8. And they're not interchangeable. Not to mention they look identical except for the number of pellets they hold. The .22 also looks identical to the .177 and are not very clearly marked.To their credit, they go in the most amazing air rifle around. I was introduced to the Marauder and PCP (not the drug, but precharged pneumatic) several months ago. Quiet, wonderful trigger, accurate, no recoil make the Benjamin Marauder the most fun gun I've ever shot. Too bad the magazine is just another Crosman meh product.
