Ok punctuation is your friend mate, try breaking up those sentences a bit.

My recomendation to you is to hang on to, or sell, the marq till you've played a bit. The new engines just came out, which look a bit simpler, but marq's ar enot the easiest guns in the world to maintain and get working right.

Put a metal backcap on that PMR and play with it for a while, then go to the marq.

the pmr has the metal cap on it. what do you mean the new engines are coming out.

The bolt/poppit assembly in the marq has been completely revamped and is supposed to be more efficient, easier to maintain, and less kick(which is pointless...the thing didn't kick at all before....).


You REALLY need to sit down with a manual and maintenance guide and learn that gun inside and out. They can be a tad temperamental, and I assure you the LPR is capable of destroying the noid if not set properly. I would start with the PMR to learn to maintain higher end guns(since you have it already) then move to the marq once you have a bit more experience(sorry but you not knowing what I meant by "engine" says something....it's not your fault, but you don't want to tear the gun up out of innocent ignorance).

i understand what you mean about not knowing what you meant by engine but still dont so please explain.
do the guns not come set from the factory.

They have to be cleaned and maintained, which will throw off settings when you disassemble the marker. They also will require fine tuning depending on temperature and atmospherics.

The engine is the entire valve assembly of the marker.

This is a picture of the new one:

so do you like the bob longs are the awesome guns once you get to know about them and how to maintain them. im really just asking if there are good guns

[txaggie08]

Shoot like a wet dream IMO

Slap a critical trigger on it and you will love it.

Like I said, they can be a bit temperamental, but keep em clean and the shoot as well as anything out there.
