WTS/WTT: Taipan Mutant's in .22 standard length

Really hate to see this one go, shoots and isn't picky, outstanding trigger and simple ergos that just plain and work while being whisper quiet but I've moved away from the farm and it's not getting the use it deserves and I'm getting into NRL/PRS and and looking to get into a rifle format slug rifle. Rifle just had a fresh reseal and chrony string to ensure it's good to go for it's next home, stock does have several scratches as shown.
It gets 48 shots(4mags) on the reg shooting jsb 15.9gr at 930fps for 30fpe

Includes 2 mags, fill probe, pin wrenches and full reseal+extra O-rings
Asking $805 Shipped, scope and DonnyFL not included. Or $960 with the SWFA 16x mrad scope and mounts.

Will consider offers or would trade+cash for a FX Panthera/dynamic/DRS or AAA Evol

It's no secret by now that the Icon barrels are complete trash. I have 2, one of them I cut down for a pistol and the other I was slogging through a rifle build with.

I don't know what the china factory thinks is acceptable but the crowns are abhorrent. I attempted a recrown on the rifle build which revealed that the bore isn't remotely centered in the barrel. It did tighten the groups significantly but still was nowhere near acceptable to me so I ordered the Barra 1100z replacement.

Night and day better barrel visually which is as far as I've gotten so if you want to follow along please do. I know a lot of the members here won't consider any gun that doesn't cost a couple grand so it won't be for everyone.

Here they are next to each other. The Barra is just about 1.25" longer, has a far better crown, the bore appears to be centered, and it has a better finish.
Unlike the Chrosman (my ultra edgy term for Chinese Crosman) it at least rolls true. $35 with shipping. It doesn't have the shoulder but the set screw divots seem to be perfectly where they need to be to line up the breech port. It's obviously slimmer and thus lighter which is certainly welcome. It will need some sort of shim to get the barrel band to clamp it tightly. Probably will use plastic. Chrosman thought they needed a mil spec bull barrel on this beast.

I have a bike show this weekend so I doubt I get to it before Monday but I will get it ported at 5/32 to match the valve port and slung into the breech to produce some groups to see how much it improves the accuracy.

Thats all I got fer now. Poke fun at me and my cheap rig if you want. I won't cry too hard. Hopefully Velocity doesn't send me a CEASE AND DESIST LETTER! LOL! Thanks for reading.

brand new rifle never fired has had some mods shortened top rail replaced most all botls with stean less steeal new rear but stock on order no tank on gun will come with a regular ar 15 rear grip stock

I bought a BRK Sniper XR in .22 about a year ago locally here from Airguns of AZ (lucky to have them so close.) It’s been great, zero issues. I’ve recently put a AGM Rattler thermal scope on it and been shooting rats. Next level fun.

At the time I bought it I knew very little about PCPs and didn’t really know what I wanted. Now I do.

I want a Ghost because that’s all I know. But it has all the “wants” I’d like to have. Can you give me advice on other guns I should be looking at? AOA, while fantastic, doesn’t carry many of the brands I see listed here and often praised.

Here’s my “wants” in order of importance.

1) Size. Must be a bullpup or smaller. Had I known how important a very compact package would be in my current endeavors I’d have bought a bullpup. This is my #1 requirement and my #1 regret with the XR. With the XR and moderator it’s very long. AOA guys talked me into the Sniper XR (and it was good advice at the time) but I wish I’d have know about the ghost at the time. They did well because I went to buy an Akela. If the XR were in a compact bullpup config I wouldn’t be posting.

2). Weight. With the thermal and sometimes a bipod the XR gets a bit heavy. Lighter the better, but I’ll make concessions here for other qualities. Needs to be able to be easily fired while standing, shoulder fired.

3) Power adjustments are important (possibly including barrel changes for length/fps). I would like to be able to change velocities being that Im shooting in my backyard. Sometimes the XR punches through a few more “things” than I wish it did. At the same time I want to shoot ring neck doves at the dairies, so I need the higher power as well.

4) Shot capacity. Not so critical, but 10 round magazines like the XR would be fine, doesn’t need to be semi. No single shot.

5) Shots per fill. More is better, but I have a tank from AOA and they’re only 7 miles away. Do prefer the look of the CF vs aluminum “on gun” tanks (not sure what they’re called?).

6) Available mods. So I have a lathe and milling machine and own dozens of firearms. I don’t think any of them are “stock.” So I was a bit disappointed to see how little the BRKs can be modified. It’s kind of what I do, I tinker, modify and play with my toys usually until they’re perfected or broken....both expensive directions.


Forgot to add that it needs to be quiet, very quiet. I have a moderator on my BRK and it’s insanely quiet, but without it, the neighbors may call. (I can legally shoot in my backyard according to city regs, I’ve checked.)

I’d appreciate any advice on pcps I may not know about that would fit this bill. I also really liked the RTI Prophet I looked at FWIW. What in the FX lineup would be comparable? AGT? Taipan?

Caliber would be .22. If I’ve forgotten something LMK.
Thanks!

For sale is a Donny FL Sumo moderator very good condition, with two end caps: UNF 1/2 inch and M14, and no case. I bought it on this forum some months ago, and it was wrongly listed as a .25 - .30. There are no markings on it from Donny.
Yesterday I took it out and started a thread to find out what caliber(s) this works with. Forum advice and calipers (.31 opening) point it is capable up to .25. The previous owner clearly told me he used it with a .25 and .257 airguns. I have included a picture of the moderator next to a marked Shogun .25 - .30 and a marked Sumo .22 - .25; this item for sale is on the far right. On the attached UNF cap, there is a scuff and some very small marks, so see pictures. I never used the suppressor and have a .22 - .25 Sumo.

Lots of words here, but I want to be transparent.

Asking price is $110.00 shipped, CONUS only. Payment may be PayPal F&F or pay fees, please. I also accept Cashier's Checks, and I think I can do Venmo.

Thank you! S7

So my beautiful Prod by Rich @Airgun-Revisions won me this rifle on a competing forum, while talking back and forth with Rich after I was announced the winner of the regulated Benjamin Marauder, Benjamin themselves got wind that I was using this won rifle as an opportunity to get into field target and I was going to have Rich do the work for me.

Anyways, on Thursday February 8th I got a call from Phillip over at Benjamin and he asked what I wanted the rifle for and what I would be doing with it. Fast forward today and I have what you see here in my hands.

This is not a production rifle and it is THE ONLY sidelever rifle stamped Benjamin Marauder in existence as far as I am told. It is a custom Challenger in .177 built with a few extra goodies to make it achieve the energy level shown , perfect for FT/HFT. Its quite consistent as you can see, 35 shots on the regulator nice and flat. Also has the quite cool custom hydrodip!

I ordered an Athlon Heras 6-24x56 SFP to top it and I cannot wait to get this rifle out and shoot it. Stay tuned to this thread for more updates. I really have to thank the folks at Benjamin Airguns as well as HAM magazine for making it possible.

Anyways, feast your eyes on this beauty.

Steel all painted up. And these guys need a work out . Steel 35 to 100. All will get a turn.

I just ordered an uragan 2 from Talon Tunes and would like to print a barrel band for it. Does anyone with a U2 have measurements of the tank, shroud, and distance between the 2? Thanks!

In like new condition, used under a tin of ammo on it. I have 3 other FX rifles and this one just didn't get any use, actually mainly because of the no tripod mount. Comes complete as I received it with FX factory stock and also an aftermarket UTC Folding stock which fits the gun very nicely and is I think the smallest most compact one I found that fit it at the time. Purchased from Utah Airguns on 5/10/2023 for $1,699.00 Selling for $1,500 shipped to your door. No Trades. USA only. Paypal F&F, Venmo or Cashapp. I am in NH if by chance you want to do a local pickup.

In addition to the minis newest task (bird permission on a local farm) , I am also tasking it with 50 yard bench competitions.

There are a handful I plan on attending in NY and a few more local ones this year as I branch out beyond my home range and friends homes.

Here is how I plan on shooting it at these shoots, just a little show and tell here.
*Rifle - American Air Arms Mini .22
*Projectile - JSB 18.13
*Optic - Athlon Helos 2-12 BTR w/NF 6 bolt Xtreme duty rings
*Bipod - AccuTac FC4 w/ Bipodext CF extension
*Moderator - Bullysyclone Wylie Kanz Titanium and CF
*Shooting bag - Armageddon Gear

I will be practicing with my Paradigm .30 this weekend for 100 yard bench coming up at the Northeast Airgun Classic but I will also be setting this up at 50 yards to do some practicing

Can someone start a Thread for "Just" Recipes? And have the AI thingy point to that thread if someone wants or trys to post a recipe. If there already is one, sorry for the post. Point me to it.

******* PLEASE READ *******

If you haven't seen my earlier threads, I'm getting out of the hobby and selling all my stuff.

I'M ONLY SELLING THIS AS A SET. DON'T ASK ME TO SPLIT IT UP. If you don't want something, you can sell it yourself, but I don't want to deal with parting everything out myself. You have to take it all if you want the gun.

I'm selling my BSA JSR .22. It has been tuned by Motorhead to 12 ft/lb, with Huma reg added, plus additional tuning work as noted below by Motorhead to make this gun as QUIET as possible. I copied his email below.

I bought the gun new from Airguns of Arizona. The gun itself was $699 new. Plus I paid for regulator, scope, parts, and tune.

This also comes with a Neil Clague moderator I had custom made for this. I paid $160 for this alone.

Also comes w/ a Hawke scope 4x12x40 with SportsMatch rings. Also has a scope level, extra picatinny for flashlight or whatever, and green light on bottom.

When I was still active in the hobby, I searched everywhere for the shortest production, non-bullpup rifle you can buy, and believe this is it. Perfect rat/mouse/truck gun.

Also comes w/ the double gun case below.

"OK .... We took the BSA nearly all apart and played with a few tuning / set up configurations in search of a 12 FPE tune that also returned the quietest muzzle report.
What we did was get the valve breathing a lot better with both larger porting as well reduced spring tension within valve. That led too reducing regulator output pressure along with reducing hammer strike energy. back-N-forth we went finding the balance of both yet strive for @ 12 fpe. As set it cocks super easy, trigger was adjusted / set for a crisp yet light break. Repaired the air leaking issue with reg installed and serviced it for air tight integrity. Gun was new so most of the o-ring were ok, just a few were not. Shooting Croman 14.3 domes we're at @ 600 fps at @ 12 fpe as requested.

* These rifles when a REG is installed ONLY SHOW the set pressure on the guns pressure gauge. ( have a DOT of white paint on face at @ 80 bar ) when needle of gauge drops off the mark it is time to refill.
Gun fills to a max 230 bar, use the gauge on the fill devise for this purpose."

Greetings.

About six months ago or so, I purchased a Donny FL Sumo from a member. The listing said the moderator was .25 - .30. The front hole seems way too small for that, and the suppressor is marked "Sumo," but inside the cap there is no caliber marking, unlike the others I own which all have this.

I asked the buyer, and he said he used it as a .25 for sure--but I have doubts, going by the hole sizes I have with clearly marked suppressors.

I have several Donny FL suppressors, and the hole where the pellet exits is smaller than my .22 - .25, let alone my .25 - .30.

I am including three pictures of three suppressors. From left to right are a .25 - .30 Shogun, a .22 - .25 Sumo, and the Sumo under question. To my eye this Sumo on the right is either a .22, a .177 - .22, or a .177 - .22. But those are guesses.

I don't want to learn anything the hard way here.

Can anyone weigh in?

Thank you. S7
