    Other Truth behind Macavity Arms Prototype Airgun

    I understand how you see it that way but it is not.. because the barrel and the thimble “ if you will” are two separate pieces.. The set screw goes in the dimple as you say and retains the “ thimble with the transfer port “ in it precise location then the barrel which is a completely separate...

    Other Truth behind Macavity Arms Prototype Airgun

    I disagree with your analysis about the barrel simply because that is not what I’ve experienced with my gun. I attempted to explain to you in an earlier thread that if the barrel isn’t snugged up with a wrench before the shroud goes on and isn’t installed using the correct process it will not...

    Other Truth behind Macavity Arms Prototype Airgun

    To your point on the barrel retention system, I believe I know what caused your concern because the first time I had mine apart and was re-threading the barrel in by hand I got it snugged up as far as I could by hand and noticed there was a huge amount of slop up and down with the barrel. That...

    Other Truth behind Macavity Arms Prototype Airgun

    I will have to definitely give the jsb 18s a solid try in this rifle since according to the manufacturer that’s what it’s supposed to shoot.. just don’t have any on hand at the moment. Yesterday I pulled the reg out and made a quarter turn counter clockwise from factory setting.. I have no idea...

    Other Truth behind Macavity Arms Prototype Airgun

    I had a little free time to test my rifle a bit the other day.. however, I’ll preface by saying that I performed the tests using only one pellet (JSB 15.9 grains) at one fps setup ( 825 FPS/ 25ish FPE ) This is a good baseline I feel since it’s a generally good performing pellet. All groups...

    Other Truth behind Macavity Arms Prototype Airgun

    Ok here ya go… Things I like - all aluminum, well thought out design and construction. The only plastic is the stock “ which is cheap and somewhat flimsy but serves its intended purpose “ The trigger group housing and the transfer port itself are plastic also, none of which I see an issue with...

    Other Truth behind Macavity Arms Prototype Airgun

    Yes, I ordered the genesis version “short model”. It was $280 plus shipping. I had it apart the other day to give everything a once over & I’d have to say that this is the cleanest air rifle I’ve ever disassembled out of the box.. especially in the category of cheap Chinese guns. What I mean...

    I have one in 22 cal also and I’ve been nothing short of impressed so far.. it does say made in PRC “people’s republic of china” I’m assuming. The build quality and machining of this rifle is miles ahead of the AV avenger. It is built like a tank ! A finely machined tank at that! The quality of...

    A 41” long 10.5 lb bullpup 😳 I’m sure it’ll be a shooter but good grief the bench is only way I’d ever use one…

    Which PCP's can shoot Slugs Well?

    My Prophet II with the RPB .22 cal barrel shoots well with H&N 217 23grain slugs.. Haven’t pushed to 100yds yet but shooting about 3/4” at 78 yds. Haven’t seen anyone mention RTI for slugs yet.

    PCP Rifle WTS/ WTT- .22 P12 bullpup repeater

    Decided to let go my Artemis/Spa P12 bullpup. 22 cal/ 10 shot repeater. These were originally single shots, this one has been converted to accept marauder mags by another member… I can’t say who did it, I can say it was well done and functions great. It is unregulated and likes nsa 17.5 slugs...

    FX Fx Dynamic express 700

    Sorry couldn’t help myself 😂 seriously though AEA is cheap chinese crap in my opinion, FX builds great guns and should fit the bill for what you’re trying to fill.

    FX Fx Dynamic express 700

    Nope , no good. I stay clear of FX and spend my money with a company that has a better track record. Like a good quality AEA or something similar… just my 2 cents, probably not even worth 2 cents 😁
