Man, if you can come up with new magazines for the karma and 25 and 30, I think you’ll make some money and you’ll help a bunch of us who order one I think the EQ in 25 and 30 caliber are going to be the most wanted rifle this yearWell. I worked on my new Karma Eq 30 cal. Redesigned the trigger guard to mount my arca rail. 3d printed 4 variations before I got the fit the way I wanted. Changed the pistol grib threads from M5 to 1/4x20.

I've also been working a dual mag setup for my Zelos. Think I'm on my fifth 3d printed version for this one.

I wouldn’t worry too much about that if they’re accurate and their grouping good that’s fast enough remember in England with their law they should 18 grains in the low 700s and they have very accurate guns so speed is not everything. Just have fun with your toys.Today I used a Chronograph for the first time , but the pellets were between 845 to 850 fps they are to long for the Guantlet magazine , so I used my single shot tray. The Apolo 25.4 should have been going to 890 , but did not. Could be a hammer spring adjustment.?
Yes like airsoft guns, uses a 11.1 v battery. You can put in larger batteries to increase shot count from the factory batteries. I have not seen how many shots per charge on the Barra. The Umarex AER16 says 650 per charge. Hard to tell from videos but Pyramid says sound level 3. MarkBattery operated ? what is the noise level ?
I understand your concern, but Your choice of sights comes down to your intended purpose. I am a very experienced pistol shooter and there are reasons to have fixed pistol sights. Think short range, concealment and comfortable carry. Then there is rapid target acquisition pesting where a reflex sight is ideal. Then there is pistol competitions where adjustable iron sights are mandated and reigns supreme. Then there are those pistol owners that cannot shoot a pistol accurately. They mount scopes and shoulder stocks. Your call.yes I don't get it.. guns used to come standard with open sights and you can always add a scope since everything has either picayinny rail or dovetail..
for me a pistol needs to be 12" or less and open sights, otherwise it's just too bulky for a holster.. and I thought the whole point in a pistol was to be able to carry it in a holster..
but along the same topic, just look at pyramid air PCP guns.. like you said thousands of dollars and not even a option for open sights.. you are hard pressed to find a gun with open sights especially rifles..
between no open sights and pistol too large for a holster it dampens my interest in air guns..

Yeah, that’s a lot of money. I’m not real keen on the plastic coated expanded metal. I guess it’s nice it won’t let water puddle but you will always need to remember to bring a rug or rubber top or something. The main thing I don’t care for is that the seat is not adjustable in and out, it’s just adjustable up and down.Looks rather expensive. I think one similar could be made for far less. Have a local metal working/welding shop make some steel legs and a rotating seat mount. A few holes drilled through for seat height adjustment, and then a top of either plywood or heavy boards jointed and glued together, Here I could probably make one for a third that cost, maybe less.
I can open my tank valve before even starting compressor. Once fill whip pressurizes it overcomes check valve resistance & fills tank. Imho it simplifies things by removing the need for another step....or I can avoid another point of potential failure and more cost, and purge the water trap as explained. Yes a one way valve is an option, but why?
The back pressure would come from the release of pressure at the purge and the premature opening of the bottle valve, hence why I let the pressure in the fill whip build to nearly what the tank pressure is.
disassembling bullpups is such a pain in the ass too. If you're cracking them open and disassembling, might as well change EVERYTHING. because nothing is worse than fully assembling, charging, and "hisssssssssssssssssssssssssssss" Rinse repeat.A FX Impact stored without air is a bad thing. I would replace all the orings. If you don’t, you’ll be chasing leaks until you do.
I’ve been steered here also but nobody ( hardly) uses it. So yes I would like an off topic headingyou can be airgun social all over the forum, but shooting the breeze you better do in the social ( i wouldn’t call it forum ) attachment.
I dont think very many even see the social thing, at least you dont get response / feedback very much there.
Hi I have the same crack at the breach blowing air back how did you fix it thanks . I have changed all the o rings on the barrel transfer port pellet probe still the same . Hope you can helpHey @Scott.t were your monocore misalignment issues resolved? I ran into the trigger issue, then dealt with ear-ringing cracking bang near the breach that took me forever to resolve and I had to do a TON of work. Now that I can actually shoot it, I have the same clipping issues as you.
