For no reason after a few dozen shots the gun goes bang and dumps all the air out of the barrel. Initially it was thought the reg pressure was too low so that was increased but it did exactly the same thing.

I made one years ago, I didn’t like the way it moved the weight further forward but that was before the availability of carbon buddy bottles.

As above

As Margaret Wolfe Hungerford famously wrote “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder” Or as my mate Mick quiet eloquently described it “that has fallen from the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down” Bb🤣

It seems to me that comparing prices from one country to the next is a bit pointless. I may pay more for an airgun but less on groceries. More on fuel less on medication. I may earn less but have more vacations. Also prices in some countries include taxes, in others the tax is added at the till...

I hope the pro doesn’t have the same reliability problems as the standard version. My shooting partner has had a refund after his drs was sent back for repair twice within a month and another friend of his drs has also developed the exact same fault and is currently back for repair for the...

Flip a coin, you get good and bad barrels regardless of price. Bb

Yep I fitted a carbon sleeve to the liner and shroud supports for the external shroud but I can assure you that it isn’t even close to being as ridged as a lw 16mm blank. Lighter, yes, stiffer, no.

If your gun is likely to get a knock then steer clear of the impact, (in fact most of the fx modular platforms) I only had to look at mine sternly and it would get poi shift. After owning a couple of compact bullpups I have come to the conclusion they are not for me, I prefer a longer gun be...

I have had in impact and I wouldn’t have another, my friend has a ghost and imo it is better in almost every way. Bb

No blood though! Bb

The spring and the piston are the quick fill sealing components, the piston goes in first then the spring.

Well I must be doing something wrong, I have made at least 100 moderators of different size shape and design, in all the testing I have done I haven’t noticed any discernible difference in velocity or consistency and poi shift has always been minimal. What I do know is that all my guns are more...

Nope! Bb
