My relatively low power, regulated BD. It has a 29" TJ's 1:26 barrel sleeved with CF. currently tuned for 13 shots at 915fps with GT Bullets 88gr HP's. Nice and quiet for 160fpe thanks to a Neil C slip on moderator.

My higher power BD, currently tuned for 5 shots around 260-270fpe. Also equipped with a Neil C slip on. It is currently at Veradium Air getting a barrel tensioning system. Once it returns it will be modified to look more like the one above.

Thx and Nice BD you have there. Great idea on the longer tube. Unfortunately for me to maintain the look/size I prefer I cant add a longer airtube, it will interfere with the moderator. My only options are to cram more air in by using a higher pressure tube. My unregulated BD currently has one of Brian's 3500psi tubes. The regulated gun has a stock tube.

the air tube im getting goes just to the end of the shroud so i can still use the donny and run 3500psi .. my old bulldog i put a reg in and i got 5 shots at 175fpe... i sold it can picked up this one that was already power tuned and have been slowing modding it every week..lol... this is mostly for coyotes but with the hammer spring backed all the way out im still getting 240fpe with 142 nsa at 3200psi ..

I need to do something with my Bulldog. I never liked the looks of them and ended up with one in a trade. I didnt do much with it because of (admittedly) some unwarranted bias. Turns out, this thing not only killed my biases, but exceeded expectations in accuracy and power, and has held air like a champ.
It's still ugly though.... I have the camo version. I like the black better and have threatened to paint it, but havent dove in yet. I like the look of the gun in the pic above with the barrel exposed. May do that and paint the lower section.
To date, the sexiest Bulldog I've seen though is the one on Brians site...

Here of a few of my builds.
Third one is a bulldog in a custom chassis and the last one is tactical carbine for a customer.

Brian's Taurus is a great looking gun as are those Pitbulls Matt builds.
I can't wait to see who will be the first to drop the BD into a nice wood stock--hint, hint.
Keep 'em comin

Rob, other than the plastic clamshell stock, I think the BD is one of Crosman's best designs. The large throated, funnel shaped valve...the sidelever...large air rube....more than ample striker system. All are features previously unavailable to those seeking a gun from a US based supplier with almost immediate access.to spare parts.....

yes, definitely agree. As noted, I did have biases against it and inwardly doubted the success after the Rogue failure... but fortunately, I didnt make an ass of myself and publicly express my thoughts...hahaha
But really, aside from the looks, I've found the Bulldog to be quite capable and rock solid...and as you mentioned, the availability of parts and support is great.

I never really liked the way Bulldogs look. Then last year at the Pacific Airgun Expo I picked one up, and fell in love with the balance and shouldering. I want one, but still hate the look. I'd rather have it stripped down as naked as possible.

Chepliki, not sure what you are asking or telling me
redsqmn, what would you like to see or know?
Mackeral5, A guy named Krett Dupree has built one that looks really nice.

Here are some pics of the stock building and the special trigger redesign I needed to do in order to pull this all together
