Yes I did. I got the ten meter target version rather than the FT version though. I've had it since about March and I don't think I've stopped smiling. It is a terrific rifle. I shoot it just as much at silhouettes with a scope as I do at ten meters with the aperture sights. Both techniques are really fun. Even at the low power level it will smack those rams at 45 yards and knock them right over. A strong wind will make things very interesting though.
I'm sorry to hear that yours arrived broken. That must have been really disappointing when you opened that box. Did you order the FT version or the Ten Meter version?

You can't tune it as far as I know. Having full auto function correctly is a little dicey. The first Blitz, when using a Moderator, had to use a specific Donny FL to cycle right, I think the Ronin. Any adjustment of the tuning would probably throw it off anyway. It came like that! Super accurate!

Must've been thirty some-odd years ago that I bought a Sportsman QB77 Chinese-made copy of the legendary 1960s vintage Croamsn 167 dual-cartridge Co2 rifle for $159 (brand new)-

My first 3 fifty-yard, three-shot groups measured .30", .40" and .50" center-to-center. She's since undergone many stages of evolution, including-

Close-up of it before (now) switching back to a longer bottle for use in my TEXtreme Bench-Rest Silhouette competitions (Slug Class).

Upon discovering she LOVES 16 grain H&N slugs at 868 FPS/26.8 FPE, I've mostly shot her at 100 yards in fascination that a .177 air rifle can average 1 MOA five-shot groups at 100. As excerpted from my testing notes-

8/6/24- Nine consecutive five-shot groups @ 100 yards with 16 gr H&N slugs averaged 1.04” center-to-center (1 MOA)!

FWIW, I've been pleasantly surprised by several Chinese airguns, and sorely disappointed with others. Some have almost unbelievable potentials (as above); others' best potentials are realized when employed as trot-line weights.

Hi Kenny,
A couple years ago I sent this Anschutz 9015 Black Air 10M rifle to Allen Zasadny who did some of his magic to bump the power level up to where it now shoots the JSB 8.44's @ around 11.2 fpe and the JSB 10.34's @ around 11.8 fpe. It gets over 99 shots per air fill. My Competition Electronics chrono only records a string up to 99 shots and this gun will max that out and still be going like the Energizer Bunny. He built the super quiet shroud for the barrel, installed the foster fill in the air cylinder, mounted the scope & rings for me and this gun is THE most accurate gun I own. AND, the most quiet. When you shoot it all you hear is a click of the trigger, a small puff of air, and then the pellet hitting the target. I could shoot it in the house and no one would know.
In its "stock out of the box" form as a 10M rifle it was easily as loud as a .22 cal rimfire rifle. A BIG NO for residential backyard friendly.
I'm not quoting him here because I don't remember the exact conversation but if I remember right it went along the lines of this 9015 being a newer model than the earlier ones that sometimes had the POI shift issue. I have not experienced this running the Sightron SIII that's on it here in the Arizona weather. I have heard of this issue, but I don't have any experience with it.

I can’t seem to break the 748 score. Keep making a stupid mistake. Joe’s Thomas slug gun is now the one to beat.

Thank born2fly.
I am going on the 6th year (guessing... could be longer) with my M1A1 and at least 11K BBs thru it probably more judging by the large full box empty co2 cartridge's. With wood furniture... as I wrote before; "it is my favorite BB gun. I am thinking about getting another one and making some more "Kit videos" on how to improve and stabilize to gun indefinitely and making the kits to sell for those who want to keep them working.
