My opinion has as much value as yours, let’s leave it at that.

Which is exactly what I said, maybe missing a word or too.. Distributor sends rifle to mom and pop and then “ they” mark(s) up the price for profit. End of story mom and pop cannot sell to you as low as AOA.

If the US distributor cannot sell Zbroia, because people are afraid there will be no parts, then the distributor does not need to restock. Then, Zbroia cannot sell more. Supply chains work like that. Without demand for a product, orders stop.

AOA. They are the distributor. Everyone else gets their Daystate rifles from AOA, and then marks up the price for profit. I bought my Redwolf from a mom and pop. Box clearly said AOA on the outside.

I think buying Zbroia products now supports their airgun business in a time of need. I like that.

I see the Tactical version of the Veteran is available for sale in the US, now. That bodes well for Taipan, in general https://talontunes.com/shop/taipan-veteran-tactical/

Great post filled with excellent information for potential compressor buyers. BTT

A used Brocock Compatto for about $600 (most sold are like new). A used dive tank and fill at your local shop, for about $200 (it does not have to be pretty) And, a Burris Fullfield II 3-9x40 mm Rifle Scope for about $150 (or use a scope off your 22 rifle, for free). That would be a sweet...

I buy a gallon of the 455 at a time. With shipping it comes down to $25 a quart, going that route.

I figure that, if I am willing to spend the money on a breathing air compressor, I should use oil meant for that purpose. Currently using Nuvair food grade 455. It has a flashpoint of 260C/500F: https://www.nuvair.com/products/parts-accessories/oil/nuvair-455.html

I love my Redwolf! I have always thought that Daystate is missing out on a huge revenue stream- I would certainly buy an alternative stock for it, should it become available. The blue one looks promising,…..

Brass works to 200 BAR/3000 psi, but usually is used for lower pressure. Use stainless steel for anything over that. Muddydogs is right! Do not use if you do not have a rating from the manufacturer. edit for spelling,….

Honestly? Look for mil-spec versions. Stay away from anything with a “flipper” adjustment. They all fail. I know, based on decades of experience. But, then, I am sure there is a “Call of Duty” fan who knows better.
