Cricket 2 Tactical photos

[Ol-Pedro]

Received my Cricket 2 Tactical today. Added the Aztec scope, DonnyFL Sumo, and UTG bipod for a photo op. 

Didn't get a chance to dial the scope in or take any shots yet, but I'm sure looking forward to it. Hope to get some real world accuracy, velocity, and shot count numbers before long. 

Cheers,

Brett

Got mine today and zeroed and shot about 5 mags thru it then.....bam would not Cock again

Called AOA and they sent me a call tag and was more than pleasant. Mechanical things sometimes fail but the mags I shot thru it were dead on at 20 yards

They say if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all.



So pretend this post never existed...

Bullysyclone, my first PCP was a first generation Cricket .25 that I purchased from AOA back in 2009. It had a corrosion issue in the air tube when I first got it. AOA sent replacement parts right away and I was very satisfied with their service. Top notch! I'll bet they have it sorted out shortly.

Does it need the mod?

I’m praying I don’t have to mount my scope that far above the bores axis. If I have to so it’s comfortable, the gun will be in the classifieds the same day.

Soo...why whine to everyone about something you don't even own..?

Do what YOU like, to the rest of us...it really doesn't matter.

Thanks! I'd be interested in seeing your .22 when you get it set up and shooting.

Well he actually has one on order and is awaiting it's arrival. So he does own one just not in his hands yet. 

And to others scope height does matter.

Okey

Was hoping Brett would reply and say the rings were just what he had for the photo and the scope could be mounted lower and still be comfortable. So Mike, your opinion does matter to me, what height rings are you using on your Cricket II Tac?

Those are Eagle Vision adjustable rings that I thought might be necessary to get enough scope adjustment. I'm planning on using this mainly from 50 to 150 yards on prairie dogs. That said, I very well may opt for a set of lower rings.

I have .22 long on order....Does It really need a moderator ??

Probably not, especially in .22. Unfortunately life has gotten in the way and I haven't even got a chance to put a pellet through mine yet.

Can you elaborate? I'm not sure what you are referring to.

He wants to know how quiet the gun is without a can on the end of it. I’m curious also.

 

[Bullysyclone]

It doesn't need a moderator for prairie dog hunting but if you have crabby neighbors you will want one.

I'm sure AOA will have it sorted out ..... Funny thing is I was worried about my Delta wolf but it has been flawless and again these things are mechanical art and we all know what happens to helicopter's at some point.

We’ll, you can see he used high rings, but I’d also say if generally that’s too high you wouldn’t like the FX Impact or Daystate Delta Wolf either. Almost all the popular bull pups have the pic rail about that high above the bore. If you go with a conventional rifle like a Red Wolf or Crown you can get the scope much closer to the bore if that’s your preference.

Congratulations! I'm considering one myself. This or the Matador... or coming back to Taipan

I was considering the compact version. Anyone here ordered the compact? 

How is the cocking? Do you still need 3 hands to mount the magazine?
