    Which is the Better Compact? Taipan Veteran .177 vs. AGT Uragan .22

    Hey, Yanks, I've got a TAIPAN Veteran STANDARD cal.22 and an AGT URAGAN Compact cal. 22 to choose from. I'm looking for a compact (reasonable length) for hunting mainly small birds maximum pigeon in the 20-55 yards range around my house and extensive garden. I'm interested in the quality of...

    Taipan veteran standard 22 regulator

    I got information this week from our local airgun dealer that all versions of Taipans have the regulator factory set at 140BAR. That sounds pretty much.... to me.

    What New Guns are Coming Out?

    It has been available in the Czech Republic since June ;-) Otherwise this is my basic version with 450mm barrel...

    What New Guns are Coming Out?

    @MikeVV : Well, let's be surprised. The current and quite logical trend of moving the charging lever to the center of the airgun will certainly affect the designers in Taipan. When their long-standing competitors in our country, such as AirgunTechnology or Kalibrgun, are already using this...

    Cricket II Tactical on its way

    If I see correctly, you have the 45WTC version? I also noticed you're testing both JSB pellets and hybryd slugs. Thanks to the CZ barrel, it can shoot both. What real world experience do you have with it in terms of accuracy on target?

    Cricket II Tactical on its way

    Today I had the opportunity to test the Kalibrgun Cricket II Tactical 60 WTC and 45WTC. I prefer compactness. The 60 version is a real cannon and frankly for some hunting, sneaking, etc. it really won't be. It's long and heavy. When you throw in those rifle scopes + bipod it becomes a 4.2kg lump...

    What New Guns are Coming Out?

    Hopefully the TAIPAN Veteran tactical upgrade will be released in the first half of this August ;-) A sample study from the official Taipan instagram account ....and private rebuilding by a shooter from the Czech Republic :-)

    Prophet Compact in da house

    @MikeVV : Hey Mike, that sounds pretty interesting. Can I ask you for a link to the thread where you address this?

    Prophet Compact in da house

    Well, that's great! Too bad, I'm from far away :-) I read with interest your discussions about the compactness of the new Prophet. However, you agreed that it is quite noisy and needs to be retrofitted with a silencer. Doesn't it lose the "compactness" in that case?

    Prophet Compact in da house

    Yeah, yeah. You're always learning. Thanks for the info. That guy must be a good guy :-D Francisco works in the style of something like Charlie Frear from Georgia Airguns? That is, he personally sets up each prophet, arranges for some counseling? If I checked the forum here you own a Prophet...

    Prophet Compact in da house

    Oh yeah.... You're right. It pretends to be RTI arms, but it's actually an independent dealer :-) I should have studied this site better. Well anyway if he is doing a deal it should be standard that he gives maximum information about the product. I don't know if they are starting that now or...

    Has anyone purchased RTI Prophet Performance Compact yet???

    Well, that's the joke. You're looking for a more compact version, but you still have to install a silencer because of the excessive noise, and the overall length ends up being on par with its bigger brother :-)

    Prophet Compact in da house

    Yeah, I've already tracked it down. They do have their official website where you can't find out about the compact at all, but then you go to their e-store and there they are available. They even have them in stock in these crazy times! On the other hand, they don't have any technical...

    Interestingly, the compact is nowhere to be found on their official website???

    Cricket II Tactical on its way

    Generally with the Kalibrgun PCP I have a problem with the easy retraction of the magazine. Unnecessarily complicated. However, a nice change came with the advent of ARGUSE, where they have an incredibly fancy magazine! It's just a blast. However, the short variant of the Argus 45 is noisy at...

    AirMaks, Caiman

    So of course Caiman and Caiman X have a regulator. I can't imagine an air rifle at this price point not having a regulator these days. The other thing is that if I have ambitions to play with a regulator I have to disassemble 1/2 a flintlock :-D

    Caiman X vs Taipan Veteran

    Let me ask you how many joules you're tuned to. The question is, how does one fit into a small flint like the caiman? No doubt I will have to try it!

    Caiman X vs Taipan Veteran

    I have the exact same dilemma. How about a reasonable focus at maximum reasonable range?
