Does yours sag? I have two 500's with no problem. Don't rest the gun on the barrel or let the barrel rest against anything when shooting. Believe me. Have fun, Scott
Yes, a few years ago before going to the dark side I was looking at some barrel cockers at AOA. One of the guys there tried to show me a pcp with a skinny barrel. I said no way would I buy one because I thought it would surely bend. No problem. Scott
I have a 500 and have had no problems with the barrel drooping. Seems like it would doesn't it! Sitting so far out there with no support. But it stays put. Enjoy, it's a wonderful air rifle.
Ditto, I have had 2 Royale's. Still have the second one that I bought because I missed the first one so much. No barrel droop at all, they're quite sturdy and reliable in my experience. Have fun and post lots of pics!!
