How much more are you willing to pay for the same rifle? Statements like this are isolationist and reductive.

You would help your family, right? Helping your fellow citizens is just a few tiers up the line.
How much? I don’t know it would have to be right in front of me and some certification that it’s actually produced here.

Wow, it looks like you’re gonna need a heavier pallet

Easily able to tune down. Plenty of pups out there to sling 15-18gr though. I think it's rare to find one that can do 50+ so easily in .22.

Thanks for sharing, I'll have to give this one a try.

Battery operated ? what is the noise level ?

@Gear_Junkie - I bought my barrels from Balistas. They seem to have the largest inventory of Epic "stuff".

Looks like a load of fun

Not to mention, theyre a great looking little bullpup. 24" OAL is tiny!!! thats like Caiman territory, whats the shot report like?

At 55fpe it's not back yard friendly but it's a very short quick snap with the new valve internals and hammer mod. Even with a Ronin it's short so making it quiet isn't an issue.

Why did Kral never bring them to the states? I would have bought one probably in .177 and .22 honestly if they did.

Pyramyd was the importer then. I think there were some issues but seems sorted now. I wouldn't be surprised to see Kral back in the next year. They seem to have finally listened.

I spent the evening putting together a shooting set up for a friend. He has money burning a hole in his pocket. He was set to buy a TX200. But he also wants a PCP for Field target. Hasn’t fired a pellet .
So I am putting together a loaner package so he can get shooting and learn the springer. I’m lending him my Browning Leverage. It was my first FT rig and still has a 12x scope from when that was the limit.
I also sighted it in and found an old pellet trap and and a bunch of targets and pellets.
I am going to have him shoot Premiers first. Just to figure out how to cock and load . Get used to it for a couple shots then switch th H&N pellets the gun loves. He will immediately see how pellets make the man. If you zoom in on the groups your see what I mean.
Lesson one.

Here's one I made after trying all that was available on the market.
It was a magnetic clasp to close it. All hand stitch leather. Works like a champ!View attachment 400786View attachment 400787View attachment 400788

Continuing on with pellet pouch variants. For a while i was really happy with a green dog treat pouch. It came with its own belt and had flat magnets which held it together. I could fit my whole hand in there and easily pull out a pellet without looking. However, it was meant for dog treats and not lead pellets, its lining wore through twice and my wife repaired it. I wanted something similar in leather, but the one i selected didn’t have a magnetic closure. My wife moved the closure from the green pouch to the leather one. It’s working well so far.

Because I just can't shut the heck up when it comes to airgun trivia...sorry ...note that the most powerful Marksman models were built around the Weihrauch HW 85 action I think. But the model numbers - 55 and 70 - were tributes to BSF's most famous sporters. The BSF 55 carbine was very popular in the 1960's and 70's, and back in the day that action added a longer barrel to become the BSF 60, and then a fancier stock to become the BSF 70.

If you look at the fine print on the first catalog shot I posted above, there were also .22 and .20 cal versions of the Marksman model 70, called the models 71 and 72 respectively. These must be some of the rarest of all HW factory rifles.

The smaller rifles in the photo were the models 40 (based on the old HW 50 as noted above) and 28 (based on the HW 30).

I think what happens is the hard anodizing wheres through and allows galling between the bolt and housing when cocking. High side forces are applied during this operation.

I do love my DRS .22 Cal 600 mm with super powerful plenum...... But.....

I'm really would like it to have a bigger air capacity to have better shot count.

Click to expand...

Maybe their next iteration of the DRS Tactical could have a stock tube that holds air. It would not be compatible with standard AR parts, but it would be a way to add air capacity while maintaining the DRS's goal of feeling like a rifle, without the extra tube or bottle.

I'm sane not nuts like these people.

Yesterday i drove to David Slades to deliver two Diana's to be repaired ( 60 and 75 ) now to wait 4or 5 weeks and drive to pick up and bring back home .
Today , will sight in HW75 pistol and 1930 BSA rifle .

It depends who is putting them on and doing the work. Sometimes in the classifieds you will see modified guns, by known high quality tuners (AZ, DW) and those guns, if just used by the seller are worth more than new most of the time and are resolved and problem free, if the seller is a well known member with a good rep. The point is you have to really follow everything and everyone, and if you do you can find good deals. Yeah, it might not be worth 'your' trouble, but it could certainly be worth someone else's.

Not to toot my own horn but this made selling rifles at the beginning of last year much easier, My paradigm and mini, were basically sold within minutes and I touched base with both owners earlier this year, neither has touched a setting since they purchased them over a year ago. It wasn't just those two either, the MK2 .22 75FPE Impact I built and sold, that one went insanely fast. Members and rifles with a following will sell faster and/or for more.
