Lloyd90 Posted March 16, 2021 Report Share Posted March 16, 2021 Has anyone seen the Maxus II anywhere in the U.K. yet? They seem to look a lot like the new Beretta Xtrema or is it just me? 🤷♂️ Gone back to the twist cap fore end ... probably a good idea I bought a fairly newish Maxus I and the fore end removal and the clip to put a sling on isn’t great to be honest. It’s very tight and hard to operate. I did consider the Beretta but didn’t think it was worth an extra £700 on top. Be interesting to see what the Maxus II brings to the table.

Spr1985 Posted March 16, 2021 Report Share Posted March 16, 2021 A guy on Instagram (a browning ambassador) has a maxus11 in use up in Scotland, that’s as much as I can tell you unfortunately. @elliot_shooting if you’re on Instagram and care to look 👍🏻 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

figgy Posted March 22, 2021 Report Share Posted March 22, 2021 I'd much rather have the Maxus one I have now. I like the forend catch, you get used to how your sling attachment is quite quickly. Lloyd out the forend on and when halfway down just jam it down and it should just click shut, or put but on hip and pull on the forend and press the catch. Just a knack you get used to. I like the forend shape of the Maxus one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the forend shape of the Maxus one. Im not sure if it’s poor QC but it’s quite fiddly to get it to push down when putting the sling attachment in. Maybe it’s just because it’s so new. Ive had an older REM 11-87 where the screw fore-end got stuck and needed a strap wrench to remove it so see the appeal of the Maxus fore-end but does leave me wondering why they’ve changed it.

kenholland Posted March 24, 2021 Report Share Posted March 24, 2021 putting that shim on to drop the stock made all the difference the pigeon seem to agree as well ,i think the maxus 2 is what it is nothing much of a difference , bits here bits there still plenty to choose from in the auto world.
