Good morning All,

I have a gen 1 marauder BP2263 .22 cal and when disasembling to fix a leak i found some corrosion on the inside of part number:1763-001 pressure tube. Does anyone manufacture these? Crosman stated they do not. Has anyone else ran into this issue?

Thank you

Yes unfortunately this is a common issue with old Marauders. The corrosion is usually the result of filling with no desiccant system - typically from a hand pump.

Crosman discontinued this part several years ago. There's no replacement that I know of.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings 😢
 
Yeah I have since bought a Stoeger Ranger .22 and stopped using the marauder. Just worried about the corrosion considering it's holding 3000 psi, lol

I am surprised no one has manufactured an anodized aluminum aftermarket replacement.
