Looks like a Cricket 3 coming....
Kalibrgun KalibrGun cricket 3 coming.....
- Thread starter Bud-sc
- Start date
I really hope Kalibrgun step up with their quality. The last two Kalibrgun I bought has issues. The magazine of the Cricket 2 tactical won't cycle while the other has RUST in the barrel.
Whichever is the case, the Cricket 3 looks interesting. Looks like they got rid of the horrible magazine system. And I wonder what is that dial for?

One thing I’ve found d with Crickets over the past 7 years. I’ve never owned one that wasn’t accurate. Not one. And I’ve owned over ten of them.

@Archdesigner03 I really don't know. If I had to guess, due to it's location I'd say that dial may adjust the air flow through the transfer port.

I had cycling problem with Cricket TacII also, not a magazine problem, simple screw adjustment. Check out my post from a couple years ago.

I totally agree, i have owned close to 10, I cant remember, but every single one was on point accuracy. They were heavy and i kept trying to get over the mag retention, but just could not. I am curious to see this new one though. Looks like the cocking lever has more travel, so it will be a smoother cockimg syatem as well.One thing I’ve found d with Crickets over the past 7 years.

Never liked the original Crickets looks, but man those things are accurate. I think the Tac 2s are pretty good looking guns.
I know that you don’t like the Kalibrguns, I remember your snide comments on another thread.

I had a Cricket Carbine and it was one whale of a shooter. I hated the funky mag release with its two positions and how you had to be careful not to tighten the side plate front screw very much, but at 100 yds it was as a laser and all gripes just faded away. I hope they never drop the Carbine because I think regular rifles will make a comeback.

I've owned 4 of them and never had an issue with either. What you call "rust" is just some rust preventive goo they put in the barrel and should clean out completely. It does take some scrubbing.

Yikes! My wallet just screamed and dove out the window. Can’t wait for a couple members to get them and report. Wouldn’t mine replacing at least one F with a K.

Thanks to Joekrooz for posting that mag fix.....
My Cricket long is Awesome accurate, but the mags have always been stiff when cocking it. I just seen this post a little earlier and I went down to my shop and adjusted that detent and polished the outer portion of the mags where the detent rides and it is actually smooth cocking now.....I didn't realize you could adjust that detent.....Thanks again.....

Just super accurate gun,
