That's what I see now on my phone. My iPad is on my wife's prime account. Maybe it was a prime only sale.Thanks Ron, but I only see the $12.66 price? The sale must be over?
What is the TG part number? They only show 1, the description is the same.
Ok - then in that case the biggest difference would be the barrels. As I mentioned, the RTI .25 barrel shoots both slugs and pellets and the Krait L comes with either a choked or non-choked barrel, so really one or the other. If you want a gun that shoots slugs, either will work but make sure you get the un-choked barrel in the Krait.Hi Pfddi, thanks a lot for your quick response. What I meant is that I have a limit for firearms only, which is why I sold the CZ 457. I can own as many airguns as I can afford. Swapping barrels is not something I would be doing, to be honest. I'm thinking of just going with .25.

Welcome to the forum.
You are in luck in that I have both guns! I like both but if I had to pick one and especially in your case with a limited number per license, I would go with the P3 as you can swap out the barrels easily - if that is allowed within the terms of the license. The P# in .22 and .25 with thei RPB barrel is one of the few that I have owned that will acutally shoot both pellet s and slugs well. I currently have my P3 with the .25 barrel and I am shooting 30.2g AEA slugs out of it at and it is maintaing groups the size of a 0.01 EU (thumb size and smaller...).
As you sdaid, both are bullpups and are very easy to carry around and to hunt with - sepecially in thick wooded or brush areas. The P3 .22 barrel is 600mm and the Krait L is 550mm. The P3 is actually easier to adjust. The Krait s adjustable but in my experience it is more :sensative" to get in the sweet spot. Both are more accurate guns than I can shoot. You really can't go wrong with either.
These were shot indoors at 50 yards. From my understanding you want your barrel at the top of the indexing. Don’t take the group size into consideration as I was limited at my time on the bench and was shooting fairly quickly to get through all 12 positions. I Thought it was interesting that the circle was that large at 50 yards.Thanks for showing your results.
If you would please do so, shoot some group"s" at 50Y at setting 3 and at setting 9 because it seemed 3 was more precise. I'm just curious as 3 through 6 are more precise as well. Also opposite of that - 10 to 1 going clockwise seem less precise.
All that is to say I'd rather be clocked away from 9 if I can get twice the precision. The problem is it takes quite a bit of trial and error shooting groups in calm conditions to make a fruitful decision.
In case you haven't seen it yet -
Not quite on the shelves yet, but you wont get any shorter.
Especially from quality manufacturer.
May tax your bank account a little though.

Yes. I did order one. I’ll share some photos when it gets here.Well did you buy one?
Good point.Keep in mind that the one piece risers may interfere with magazines. I made that mistake and had to return them and buy the two piece risers.
Possibly, but O-rings in a regulator tend to degrade more rapidly than elsewhere in the pressurized system, particularly those on the high pressure side. Meaning those toward the narrow end of the piston. Why is that? Because of thermal stress of the refill cycle. Heat essentially cooks the elastomer and it becomes hard and brittle over time.If some o rings are dried out going bad do you not think that more then likely others could be in same condition.
You can tell the whole radiator is being used in this position by using a laser thermometer on the opposite side. Or just touch it...I guess without knowing exactly how the water is channeled through the radiator, it is difficult to determine if the full benefit of the radiator is being used. The ports are fairly close together as discussed. I wonder if the GX folks would have any comments about that?

I’ll look into them.
