Direct fit bigger bottle for bsa r10 mk2?

[Tn_airgunner]

Is there a direct fit bigger bottle for the bsa r10? I don't mind if I have to mod the stock a little I just don't want to have to change the fitting arround unless someone has a direct link to where to get them and what I'd need to do this mod. I love my r10 but would like to get a higher shot count. I just received my wolf moderator and love it. So now to the next mod

I read somewhere that Rapid Air Weapons or Theoben tanks fit with now modding of the stock. I believe their carbon tank will fit, but the stock has to be inletted. I was thinking about doing this to my r10. I found this info on a different forum.

They have two styles on the theoben bottles Rapid and MFR. The carbon bottles comes with mk2 inlet. Which one if these is it or does it matter? Would I be taking the valve off my buddy bottle and fitting it onto one of these or using the ones that come with the bottles. I'm still new to airguns only one year into them so I don't don't a whole lot.

The Talon Tunes bottle is probably your cheapest option.

@scubajeepers is it the carbon bottle they sell for the airforce guns?

I just installed a RAW 480cc carbon fiber bottle on my .177 R10. I ordered online and they called the next day to run the card. It arrived USPS priority 3 days later from across the country. Opening up the stock was no big deal, I also had to chamfer the "toast rack" slightly but no big deal. maybe 10 minutes of work. In my opinion the rifle looks better with the larger bottle too. Doubled the shot count.

Thought I heard the threads were different on some CF bottles, the nright thread seems more important than low price, and if they are all the same thread please correct me.


Good luck, love my CF bottle.

Tony...did the RAW bottle fit without any mods to the valve, I've heard some say the needle is to long/short 

 

[Tn_airgunner]

@Tony was the threads on the bottle a direct fit? This is my biggest concern.

 

[Tony]

AR and Tri_---Sorry I missed that, yes it was a direct fit. Although there is a difference in appearance. So I checked the thread diameter,pitch and length of fitting before installing it. I aired mine up slowly (to 1000psi) and let it sit a few minutes to check for leaks. Then 2k psi ,paused and then filled to 3k and tried it- no issues or leaks. I have since had it off again to check the oring and threads= no issues. $269 shipped.

Hmm i might end up trying that. I'm wanting more shots and trying to get most accuracy out of the gun as possible.

the 280cc thoben mfr will fit with out any altering of the stock just change over the valves to a bsa one , im 100000% on this as ive done it about 4 mins ago

or you can fit a 400cc one if you fit one of these they have a spacer to move the bottle further back ,hope this helps, 272491411473 ebay nunber
