On PA's site, I've been watching the projected In Stock date continue to slip for the Kral Puncher Jumbo. I thought this might have been due to an upgrade, but didn't see any shot show announcements for Kral. I just went to Kral's site and it looks like they've made the Puncher Jumbo into a semi-auto. Is this new? This could be very interesting.

"zeus"Hello, according to some videos that I have seen, to shoot cans can be fine, but it does not seem very accurate or consistent.
Yes, it seems funny

I'm not willing to pass on this airgun because of this review. The larger groups could have been anything, barrel bur, bad crown, etc. I'd like to see Troy tune one of these and show us what kind of potential this has. Except for the action, it's probably identical to the Jumbo.

I have to treat this video just like all the rest. I wouldn't let it stop me from buying one and tweaking it to get what I want any more than I let someone praising a gun being "the best there is" convince me to buy that gun. And, it does look like the wind is blowing a bit so the groups might not have been exactly representative of what the gun can do otherwise.
Thanks for sharing the link.

From what I've gathered there is some refinement still needed. A few feeding issues with the mags. The issue with semi auto is it uses the exhausted air to recock the gun so getting that balance right is difficult. If you change velocity you have to retune the semi auto parts as well. It's like an adjustable gas block on an AR. Even different pellet weights could affect the way the blowback system works.
