Other Drozd Blackbird

[Devink]

Anyone else lucky enough to have one of these ? They are very hard to come by now even in the stock configuration.This one here took some time and $ and is powered by on board Hpa and 20 volt. fully modified by Mason Dawson .(the master of these things in the US) it's capable of shooting bbs at extremely high fire rates of 1k-4k rounds per minute. At over 850FPS With options for semi burst and fully automatic. Truely the most Devastating and dangerous bb gun .This is my first video showing it off a bit ,having fun with 1kRPM!

I don't care what any one else thinks i think that should be illegal .

 

[Devink]

Maybe that's why they stopped importing to US years ago

 

[Devink]

I don't care what any one else thinks i think that should be illegal .

I'd say no. You must be familiar with the pcp's coming out lately far more dangerous than this one.

I don't care what any one else thinks i think that should be illegal .

Why? Because “you” don’t care what “anyone else” may think or opine? How open minded of you…. Looked like harmless fun to me, unless you have a devious mind that is…

 

[Peashooter]

I will have to side with leon, there is no sense in thinking about in what ways anyone else could harm you, there are simply too many avenues for that, and the people that try to legislate their way out of that,,,,, most often at the expence of stand up people,ls rights and freedoms should be ashamed and ousted from what even in charge position they are in.

PPL in charge here not smart, so i am fully expecting a ban on any kind of drone / quad copters at any time now, seeing how creative they are used in Ukraine.

I took me a while to get a hold of one. I see one occasionally on ebay but they are going for upward of $1000 and over for the modified version. That's probably the best way to find one now ...

 

[maxtrouble]

That is pretty cool. What kind of accuracy and range can you get with BB's going that fast?

 

[Devink]

Beyond 20 yards They can go wild or curve a bit so it's harder to hit anything. Within 20 is really good

 

[Ricklin]

Does the Drozd work best with steel or lead BB's, the lead BB's are heavier even more snort, that thing looks like big fun. I will be satisfied with A Hatsan Blitz. I will be getting one soon.

 

[Devink]

Steel bbs , yes the Hatsan blitz is a blast and will give much more accuracy and power

 

[Ricklin]

Unless they recommend against it, give the lead BB's a go. They are more dense, tho I have not measured the difference. I have one repeating pistol in .177 for pellets or BB's it only really works as a repeater using the lead BB's it jams badly on steel BB's, works great with lead BB's, have no clue why.

Sold one last year for 5oo bucks. Still have the Bumble Bee with several magazines. Frankly I like the Bumble Bee over the Black Bird. Drozd's imports were stopped during one of our Russian embargo plans.

 

[Sicumj]

I had lead BB's from H&N and RWS I believe. Neither would fit. They were too large for the gun to operate. Daisy's silver BB's seem to work best in mine.

 

[Zesty]

Pardon me for reviving an older thread, but I also have 1 of these. Bought from Drozdmax who modified it to 600/900/1200rpm with F/A. Drozdmax also did a BB alignment mod to the mag, and I bought the Jim C barrel kit. Does anybody know if the barrels are still available? I shot out my stock barrel as well as the shorter JimC, still have the long 1. Any clue? Thanks!

 

[Sicumj]

Let me look. I may have one.

No good. I have them here somewhere I'll let you know if I find them.

 

[Sicumj]

I have 2 stock barrels in good shape.

 

[airgunmike56]

I think that's were Barra dropped it with there 400E with the 50 and later on 100 BB magazine ,, Should have been 250 and 500 BB magazine
I been hit a few times with the 400 E bouncing back BBs at 400 FPS,, OUCH,,,, Really suck if they bounce back at 800 FPS, May have to dig them out , LOL,
Mike

I had three of these for a few years, two of them had been converted to HPA.
The one running CO2 never worked 100% and had problems with leaking and freezing up.

The two HPAs conversions bought off eBay with a upgraded chip they worked fine. I finally sold them because there wasn't any practical use for them.

Shooting outside left many thousands of steel BBs everywhere and BB ricochets were a constant and surprisingly serious danger.
They were also a lot of fun to shoot and that seemed to be the main purpose for them.

I've attached a copy of the manual in case anyone is interested.
