I think they'd dominate a large market space if the price was a bit lower and the bottle was 4500psi instead of 3k... Still, looks pretty cool though

Kral?

Nothing wrong with 3000 psi. Won't slow the pellet down too much plus less apt to blow up $1300 compressors, Could even use a hand pump if you feel Macho!

If it has a Green Mountain barrel I will be first in line.

200 bar guns are way better. Filling a 300 bar gun from a 300 bar SCBA tank is just stupid. You can shoot all day at full power with a 200 bar gun and a 300 bar Carbon Fiber SCBA tank. 

The Skout runs off 800 PSI at full power. ...also at shot show...but 6 months away from production, which means "posibly never".

Gunnars are in stock now.

Not a Kral. Krals are not regulated silly! 

I have heard people say a Reximex hybrid. ..also at shot show. Reximex are cheap though ($600)

...the Gunnar is refined. It has $1000 worth of style. ...and a regulator. 

Just look at those curves!

Nice! I would have been even more interested if it was designed with interchangeable different caliber barrel kits in mind.

Neat rifle no dought but the cost of these guns are getting out of range for the average Joe lunch bucket guy as me.

Not true. There is at least one Kral that is regulated. The Kral Puncher Mega II

Reximex and Kuzey Arms are owned by the same owners of Kral.

It looks looks Kral-ish. It’s made in Turkey. According to Baker Airgun’s review, it uses the same magazines as the guns that Kral already makes for Benjamin. But the YouTube airgun expert says it’s not made by Kral.

It's totally made by Kral.

Anything East of Maine or West of California can not make attractive AR15 furniture. Gotta toss the grip and butt stock first thing. And the tactical ventilated throw lever... yuck

No way man.

That buttstock is AWESOME!

How it looks is irrelevant to me.

Designed by Velosity outdoor "Makers of Crosman, Bemjamin, Raven Crossbow's, CenterPoint Optics, & more" outsourced to Reximex Turkey, sister company of Kral for the build. I spoke to Velosity outdoor, at length. I was told the main reason for the outsourcing, they are having staffing issues due to covid, just like the rest of our country.
