Good Points: Accurate and good hand-feel. Balanced and stylish.
General comments: Leaks air after about 200 shots. The leverage in cocking the gun is very very difficult; and opening the gun is very difficult.
Also, pellet insertion is one big pain in the access.
If I had known, I would never have bought this gun. Don't consider it at any price.

DO NOT BUY!!!
Junk! Garbage! Trash!
Now don't get me wrong,. I'm not one of those grumpy old men who thinks that everything is junk. There are still some real airgun values out there such as the Crosman 1377 and 2240. However, the Marksman 2004 also known as the Beeman P17 or the Beeman 2006 is a junk gun that works for about 10 minutes then starts leaking air from various places. How do I know? I tried several of them from several different stores and the end result is always the same>>>JUNK! ...

Nice beginner gun, so after about 2000-3000 shots, I'm quite happy with it overall, despite it's serious flaws having been apparent from the first (quite disappointing) minutes.

would not recommend this gun to anyone... Buy a Crosman T4 or T4 Ops
highly acurate, good looks, 8 shot repeater, a better choice is a Crosman gun. It blew a seal that keeps the compression (what makes the gun shoot). ive had it for 2 days! i am going to call BEEMAN and see what it is if i hav to pay anything i will be pissed!

I've had this gun for about two years and it is still going strong and i've shot around 5000 shots. I would recommend this gun to anyone who want a decent pistol with a good price.

I'd actaully first bought the handgun for my brother for his birthday. As he loves handguns but couldn't dive into getting a firearm at the time. Not being able to afford the Beeman P3, which the Marksman 2004 is the clone of, for a gift I compromised for the 2004. Of course before I gave it to him I had to do some testing!
My first impressions of the gun was I was pretty surprised by the fit and balance of such a low priced gun. The pistol just felt like it belonged in my hands. Taking ...

I bought the Marksman Model 2004 3 days ago on a decision that I wanted to order a HW40PCA (Beeman P3 outside the US) but I wanted to have a feeling how it felt before I ordered it. Since this gun is a direct copy I felt that it would be worth it and after the fact I would have a gun that I could lend to my friends when we're out camping. Anyhow that thought was killed last night when I went to shoot it and it started leaking air out of the barrel. I'm probably going to take it apart (voiding ...

I've found that silicone grease works well to lubricate the Marksman Model 2004 piston and o-ring, perhaps synthetic brake caliper slide lube would work well, too. While you've got it apart, make sure to lube all the pivot points and pins with high quailty gun oil or moly lube. I used removeable loctite to cure the rear sight problem. Pay attention to the headspace between the barrel breech and compression chamber, I noticed the little o-ring was being dislodged from its groove indicating too m ...

Ordered from Pyramid Air for $55 shipped and then found out from here that I could have bought the Marksman Model 2004 at Walmart; however my local Walmart didn't stock it. First impressions: damn accurate! After adjusting the sights I was hitting bullseyes at 15 yards with groups within 1

Marksman 2004 & P3. well...
(The Weihrauch HW 40 PCA & Beeman P3 are the same gun never been a question. Weihrauch HW 40 PCA marketed by Beeman==>Beeman P3)
During 1992 Richard Kazmaier Jr., president of Kazmaier Associates Inc. of Maryland, was interested in the purchase of the Beeman company. The Kazmaier company reportedly owns Bike (athletic clothing), S/R Industries (sporting and recreation equipment), and other holdings. S/R Industries, in turn, owns Marksman Products. Mr. Kazmaie ...

I got my Marksman 2004 air pistol just 2 hours ago and could not stop shooting it. After over 100 rounds, I think I have enough experience to comment it a little bit. :-)
First impression: the black cover looks ugly compared to other air pistol with medal cover or shining finish. Don't use it for just showing off.
Then, I used the cheap Crosman Wadcutter .177 pellets from Walmart to give it a try. Heard a lot for the tricky feeding action, but not a thing for my small finger.
After th ...

I got my Marksman Model 2004 last weekend at CanadianTire for $114.99 taxes included. It was in a French and English package .So far I've shot with it over 300 times with no problem but I am keeping the proof of purchase just in case. I find this little power house easy to be accurate with, one inch circle at 33' in a offhand 2 hands standing position easy to accomplish. I am happy with it so far.

I bought the Marksman 2004 on a whim after looking at the Beeman p3, and the price.
I figured it had to be of at least similar design.
Got it out of the pack, ran about 100 pellets through it to "wring it out".
The hammer locking pin started backing out after about 50 shots. MOD#1 (pushed it back in, and added a allen set screw on each side, THE HOLES ARE ALREADY THERE just waiting for set screws.)
Yes the rear sight is mobile if you hit it with your hand. MOD#2 a little epoxy glu ...
