Will be changing camo on this 25cal. soon . T3PRanch show a picture & let us know how it shoots please .
I really like your camo, I have been thinking about painting mine. Guess I just need to do it.
Here's my .25. I'm going to change out audrius regulator for a Huma I just picked up, then tune down from the current 53fpe to a 40/40fpe tune just in time for the .25 Hades to arrive.

NMshooter I like the feel a lot but there is things to Note: you cannot have carbon wrap on the Air Tube, it only can be put on the barrel shroud .The piece that slides over the shroud & air tube is a tight fit . The linkage is thick & I think nicer than the maddog kit very easy to install . But it has no linkage for the SAFETY. Also this one but not sure of the rest of them the groove in the dove tail has tool chatter in the deepest part of the V not sure if my picture will show it . That's why I went with a wider base ring mount, was going with a one piece mount but ordered the wrong one also my UTG's did not fit right. Do not damage any parts or lose them because Craftsman Vit does not sell replacement parts my as far as I know. They did not answer my question on that matter when I posted the question so I take that as NO . Over all feels really nice kinda reminds of 
a cricket mini as far as balance. I'd do it again but I'm a bull pup fan . Hope this helps some people out .

Kkarmical Thanks for the comment . I use Rust-oleum camouflage paint it is tuff & really holds up. I see our scope rails are opposite so they can be swapped ? BTW what moderator is that ? Heres a couple of pictures of the paint color on my kayaks I will be changing the gun to the lighter one . Also your the one that got me to do bull pups when I first joined I saw yours btw .

Guys,
Sweet bullpups, as long as you’re showing yours I’ll show you mine. Both are .25 cal with side lever breeches. One Craftsman Vit and one MDRL.

vdwb Like the side levers ! On the craftmans vit how was the machining of your scope rail (the deep part of the V in the dove tail ? was it ruff or smooth ? would like to compare Thanks

Kayaker,
The underside of the scope rail is rough for sure, good thing it doesn’t show, lol. The V in my rail seems OK. Maybe fine file the roughness out and re blue since it’s steel? Thanks for the side lever compliment, makes for easier cocking due to bolt position on a bullpup.

Kayaker - I don't know on the LDC. I bought the Mrod from a member here, it was not listed with a LDC. About 6 months after I bought the gun, Wyshadow just sent me the LDC and a couple more magazines he came across that he had used with the gun. I asked him about the LDC, and he said he forgot who he bought it from. It works really well whoever made it.
vdwd - very nice, I like the side lever touch.

Kayaker,
They both have pluses and minuses, on the craftsman Vit the air tube sits deeper in the stock and the stock is narrower and there is no safety but it shoulders well and the balance feels nice. The MDRL does have a safety, also shoulders well and the stock is wider and maybe a little heavier. The air tube seems to sit higher on the MDRL as well. I can’t make up my mind which one I like more but I better get used to the craftsman Vit since I built the MDRL for my dad, lol. I figured he needed a safety more than me, this will be his first PCP.

Kayaker,
What scope is that you're using on the MDRL Synpup?
I have a discovery 10x 44 that was supposed to go on another gun, that may find it's way onto the Mrod.

kkarmical,
Thanks for the side lever compliment. The MDRL has the exact scope you mentioned, a Discovery 10x44.

alex I love the stock - the linkage is stronger then the MD but has no SAFETY but not a deal breaker for me . Easy to put together, when connecting the linkage to the trigger just snug it don't over do it . That's what I was told by previous owner . Turning that long gun into a pup made it a lot nicer to handle & shoot . Hope you enjoy it Darell
