Too good not to share! SOLID!

This beast of a LDC was 3D printed by a fellow AGN member for my 0.753” x 29” .22 Benchmark that goes on my FX Elite.

I now have 7 barrels for her. I’m dying for the alleged JSB .215” Knockouts to be released. This barrel is the only one I’ve ever seen that puts them hole in hole so tight I wonder if I loaded the single shot. I’m stoked as another AGN member has modified the Elite with a full rebuild AND a dummy reg body. I will be able to just unscrew the reg & adjust, or take it out & run it wide open.

The reg is now set at 140. I also have a step down in-line as this is my main BR for every pellet in .177 to .25. 


A big thank you to both of you fellas!

Yes Sir,

Single shot BR worthy rig. Especially with the 2 L&G .22 Benchmark spitting JSB 18.13’s.

From top to bottom you can see my custom lefty Steve Corcoran stock. I’m not a fan of thumb hole stocks but I love this one. Honestly I’d prefer a dense, synthetic heavier ambidextrous BR style w/ adjustable cheek piece. This one falls into safe queen area.

T to B barrels: A .25 ST w/shroud. FX factory from a Royal 500. You just unscrew the brass transfer port part & VOILA! Fits an Elite perfectly. Sadly FX or dealers I’ve talked to won’t sell any Royal barrels alone or I’d have a .177 & .22 ST also.

The 29” x 0.753” OD 2 L&G . 215” bore Benchmark. Choke mics at .213”. Come on JSB w/ those .215” Knockouts I’ve heard about!!
3D printed LDC by Silent Thunder Ordnance. Thank goodness for STO as it cost me less shipped than everyone else wanted to make a custom adapter alone. 
My CZ .22. Oh yes my precious. followed by the outstanding 12 L&G LW .22. 

It’ll be wearing another STO in awhile as owner is donating his time & materials to help 1st Responders with needed equipment. 

The bottom 3, Baker AG’s, CZ, LW are all .177’s. All turned & threaded by Twistedlead, AKA Aaron Jordan. Fellow AGN member who happens to be a machine shop supervisor. Talk about getting lucky. Every barrel seen that is threaded was bought from & done by him. The Elite originally came to me with the .25 ST & .22 Benchmark only.
It also came with the extra long FX cylinder and a 500cc bottle. I bought the Rapid valved bottle & identical no valve one from Aaron also. He’s one of the other few Elite owners. 
I’ve heard that only 40 were ever made. I’ve heard 60. Who knows for sure? I don’t but I know it’s a keeper. 
I’ve let at least 8 collector pieces go. There won’t be a 9th. Well, I’ve heard scuttlebutt of RAW bringing back the Theoben gas ram guns. If that actually happens I will no longer regret selling my Scirocco.


Peace out Girl Scouts! Time to sling lead as yesterday was a bit of a blustery day. 13mph winds with 25+mph gusts.
