Lindstradt Air Gun

Anyone remember this from the Jurassic park movie/ Novels?






I smirked when I saw this again on TV today. How much out current air rifles look like this. Would be interesting if the new IMPACT had a removable Trank Dart Barrel for some of the people who actually use them out in the field. A true all in one solution. Death and Preservation, all in one package!

These guys have had the market cornered for the most part for many years. http://www.pneudart.com 

Would be nice to see the accuracy of the new rifles we are using transferred into the Tools some of use on a frequent basis in professional lives. 

*MOD EDIT: a picture of a child being tranquilized with a pneumatic dart gun is not appropriate here.*

The modern PCP rifles we use are actually the result of work by a company that became Daystate into producing Dart Guns for Veterinary use.

PCPs were museum pieces for most of the 20th Century !

Funny that most of their pneumatic line of "Projectors" look like older model Crosman/Benjamins!

The most important feature of the gun on Jurassic Park was that it looked dangerous. If you knew nothing about air guns, it did.

FOIr sur.e . I was interested in something more modern for people that are using them frequently, or 'in'frequently.

Revisiting this since I have seen some customizations done by other people. I'll be making a barrel kit for the Impact for testing in the next month. .30 cal probe as the start

Cant recall which one but Swivel has been in flics. Had the .25/arrow set up, WORTHLESS as a pellet shooter but slapped arrows into each other at 50 yards a good number of years ago. With the correct attachment you could use ( just about anything) a 29g (?) Helium cartridge for very expensive power.

The Hub en is a close to a "new" idea as I;ve seen, not much truly new to be done with airguns so it is good to keep older designs in mind.

Thees stuff out there, pneudart has some of the projectors. And you can see that in the last 3-5 years, nothing has changed in that market. Gauged CO2[/QUOTE]http://www.pneudart.com/products/projectors/gauged-co2/embed/#?secret=tQKZwM5hG5
