The Texans top-hat is not spring loaded, you must manually pull the top-hat closed prior to filling a tank that has been depleted.

The Texans Top-Hat does not close the valve automatically when the tank is completely out of air, meaning there is no spring to close the valve. You'll need to open the breach to access the top-hat and physically close the valve. To do this you will grab the top-hat with your hand and pull to...

Yo Frogman! Up until 83… was attached to MDSU1 out of Pearl Harbor, Hi., What unit were you you attached to and what years?

Any rifle that measures 58 inches with no compensator installed is ridiculously long. I can reliably hit 8” targets out to 400 yards and with a little work can reach out to 600 using this same configuration, but a different scope. So I’m thinking the 30 inch barrel MCAR might be the better...

Ted Nugent (Uncle Ted) signed two of my rifles while hunting on his ranch last year. So that would be his signature.

You should check out my post on how to tune the Texan. It’s very informative.

Be aware that if you go with ultra-light weight projectiles and low pressures... some combination will yield very high velocities. MY experience with 2,200 PSI and sabots under 50gr have gone supersonic.

Good advice on reducing the top hats travel... Solid fix for anyone looking to reduce the power with out experiencing valve dump.

MadDog has a good assortment of stocks to choose from. I selected the RJ-6A Recon LSS stock for my build.

What's the length of your rifle? I have a modified Airforce Texan that measures 53" overall and it fits in the Pelican 1755 case.

Ya my AirForce Texan may have a couple of small mods… lol. I got sucked into the idea of finding and extending the rifles limits in distance shooting. I’ve taken jack rabbits as far out as 440 yards and can hit a man sized target out to 600… even in mild to medium winds gusting up to 15mph...

What I’m trying to say is if a scope can survive the recoil of an.308, there is a high likelihood that it would have no problem with the Texan .50.

If you want to compare the Air Force Texan 50 Cal to a .308 Center fire rifle, the Air Force Texan is mild, I’d describe the Texan recoil as a firm yet smooth push against the shoulder, where a .308 has a snappy kick, and significantly more recoil.

I’m shootings my rile at 319bar on the high end and run 3 large air tanks at 450bar, this allows me to keep one tank on the compressor while shooting. I’ve been considering the booster pump and may add it to my toolbox as a backup.

Recoil varies with bullet weight, pressure, rifle weight, and your tune. There are two many variables to answer your question intelligently.

When I’m hunting I gotta wait for the second wind to kick in. Rifle is always heavy when first head out. Doug at Mad Dog makes great stocks.
