Western Airguns Mordax 22

I really like the idea of the Mordax as a super versitile backpack gun. With nice optics and stock magazine spacer, etc can you throw it in a daypack with a jacket, lunch and waterbottle? Or does it need more protection like a hard case?

My Mordax is my backpack gun and it lives in this backpack with an Air Venturi Mini Wingman tank and some ammo and accessories and such. I used a different backpack for a bit but Ive found using a backpack with reinforcement or frame is a little more comfortable to carry everything with. I'll admit the handguard i added to my gun makes me feel a little better about it living in a backpack and tossed in my car.

Thanks for sharing with pics. That bag looks really small for the capability of what it's carrying.

I'm new to PCP and had forgotten about needing an extra bottle. I suppose I could wrap each hard item in a towel to keep them from banging against each other.

Time will tell if that's good enough to withstand an inevitable fall from a bike.

Here's the bag im using: Rustic Ridge Bow and Rifle 36 Liter Hunting Day Pack https://www.sportsmans.com/hunting-...pack-realtree-edge/p/1866533?channel=shopping

Depends on the severity of the fall. Also you have to decide if it’s you or the gun that's going to take the damage.

Last time I fell hard I chose saving my ebike, lol. Fortunately it worked out that time so only a few scratches and bruises. Bike was fine.

If I take my Venom on the EMTB hunting next month I'm being super careful!!!

I'm not that good at picking what gets hurt when I go down.

I know it's impossible to say how hard you'll wreck, but do cylinders ever blow up on people when dropped or rolling around in truck beds?

I might stick to hiking with backpack in that case.
