Nothing from H&N will fit my magazine properly. They don't seat well and shift around while shooting. Not sure if this is the case with all GK1s, but mine doesn't like 'em. Too loose. Some of them even fall straight through the mag. It's a shame because I really like H&N. Especially the Hunter...

Ever since I realigned the barrel on my GK1 it has been performing better than ever. I even managed to shoot slugs again without any jams (so far so good).

I heard somewhere that you can't (or shouldn't?) fire the Slash too rapidly. You need to wait a few seconds between each shot so the plenum can replenish. Is this true? If so, then it kinda defeats the purpose of semi-auto, no? You can shoot pretty rapidly with other regulated semi-autos, like...

Yeah the one inside the kit I ordered has the long darkgrey spring in it. I have an early GK1 V1. My original spring looks different than the two in your picture. It's about the same length as the bottom one, but with less windings, thicker wire, and bronze colored instead of darkgrey. So the...

You said you would upload a review of the Slash "very soon". That was well over two months ago. What happened?

I scrolled through the comments for a bit, and it seems the Fenix has been available in Russia for 6 months already. But it won't arrive in the west until the end of the year (more likely early next year). Ed also mentions that a Fenix 2.0 is planned, which will come in .30 and 9mm. Not to...

As far as I know, it's not valve lock. Some Megalodons suffer from an issue where the bolt handle rubs against the slit in the receiver. This slows the hammer down, and thus it won't hit the valve pin hard enough to let the air out properly. It's actually more likely to happen at higher...

Are you referring to the striker spring? I recently bought a GK1 parts kit, and I did notice that the striker spring provided is noticeably different than the one that's currently installed on my GK1 V1. The spring inside the kit is longer and has a lot more coils. Is that normal? Did they...

The weight of this rifle is really off-putting for me. It weighs like a pound more than a .50 Megalodon. And most of the weight is concentrated at the front part too, since it doesn't have a rear tank. Great for benching no doubt, but off-hand shooting is asking for back problems.

Yeah the mag holes are slightly bigger on mine. The projectiles easily dislodge and can get caught on the barrel. So far I've simply been shooting the same JSB pellets, which do fit. But Im thinking about replacing the magazine in the future.

While the design of the hammer is a little questionable, I don't think that's the main issue. The problem is that on some models the bolt handle rubs against the slit in the receiver. This is likely what causes the hammer to hit the valve pin off-center and slip past it. I have owned 3 Megs in...

Another what? Someone who point out basic facts? Must be frustrating for you.

That's quite a silly thing to say. Just because you never had issues with it does not mean the gun is perfect in every way, or that every problem can be chalked up to user error. GK1's are not identical clones. Each one comes out of the factory a little different. I have one of the earliest...

I suggest you call BinTac, or shoot them an email. They'll know what's up, and can probably send replacement parts if necessary.

l have two Megs. My .457 had a small leak on arrival, but that was simply a faulty o-ring. Replaced it, never leaked since. No leaks at all on my .50 so far. I bought them from local shops, in the Netherlands. We have no power limit on airguns here, like they do in Germany or the UK. So the...

I didn't say that. I told you that my local retailer said they were having some issues on some of the rifles. Glad to hear that you managed to get a working Slash. When you buy a product in this price range I would expect nothing less!

I only pointed out one issue, not multiple. Which is a potential problem with the indexing. The source is my local importer who is in direct contact with Taipan. They said they heard reports of indexing issues on some early models, and on sub-12 footpound versions. Again, ammo weight seems to...

As excited as I am for the Slash, something just feels "off" about the whole deal. The delays, the .30 cal version being pushed back, the fact that Taipan suddenly turned off the comments on their recent videos... etc. It's also a bit strange how few videos of it exist on Youtube. Usually these...

Does the mini also come in .30? Or only the long version?

It looks tempting, but I've been burned before by the T9. Which I eventually sold because I was having too many issues. The mags got damaged within the first few weeks of shooting. One of the bolt handles snapped off. Moderators caused cycling issues. Very picky about ammo too, especially...
