This is the Mamba. It’s a custom built Uk Tommy that I built. It’s a shell of the original gun. It came about while experimenting on 27 mm tubed long stroke guns. I was playing with a 110 to 115 mm stroked 27 mm sleeved 30 mm tubes to retain the long spring stack for max power.
That testing wasn’t all in vain as I did get some big power from 27 mm LS guns . They were not without their faults. The things that were good I reimplemented into a standard Uk Tommy tube with a custom made piston and seal as well as a bespoke spring set up.
The port was meticulously worked over to get the power yet remain lenier in it’s shot cycle
the gun was tested in .22 and was generating 24 ft lbs but was a bit snappy. These are 7.5 lb guns. I detuned it to a peaceful 20 ft lbs. I was bored one day and ,,,,,, Out of curiosity I changed to a .25 barrel and lightning struck. It retained the same 20 ft lb set up in 22 but actually picked up power and a much better shot cycle.. It’s at 22 ft lbs with 25.3 jsb exacts. Or 23.5 ft lbs with 20 grain ftt.
That being said ,while testing the accuracy,I sighted in the 25.3 first and NEVER ,have any of my guns shot this quickly to kill.
The first attempt at 66 yards down hill was a head shot on a fox squirrel 🐿 .. witnessed by two friends at a job site. I fallowed up with a 47 yard grey squirrel 🐿 . By know I look like a sniper as I walked away like it’s the norm as they were a gaw with shock a pellet gun can be this deadly .. This was first kill, down to the right of that garbage can ,right of the wheel you can see the tail curled up ..
I have not tried sighting innthe 20 trainers yet.
The Mamba
It’s a fully shrouded design like most of my guns with short 13 inch barrel , the shroud has collectors .
The unique bronze finish was done as it was designed for hunting and looks
If you look it’s a blackish bronze satin finish I made up over a multi bead blasted prep..
Of course it has my own stock with the traditional Tommy lines but much better fit,with a custom rollover. The Checkering is skip line with a nice claro walnut wood.
