My turn guys, Airgunmanart here. Some of you know me.

I called WildCJ5 a few months ago and made him an offer he couldn't refuse. So now I own USFT#51. It use to be a gen1,, move forward to present. I went to Tim and told him I want to make it a gen. ( he built my USFT# 181 in 22 cal)

So now its perty much done, new poly barrel, lots of intricate parts in 8" tube,mind I it not completely done missing one thing. I took it out to our CASA match last Saturday (12th) shot a 42/48. Not bad for the first time out.

I will be going to the Western Regional in San Louis Obispo. Come on out and have fun, application on most airgun websites. 

Don't forget the California State Championship, (CASA at ASR),and the Nationals in SLO.

Haha. Pardon me just sooo ugly a rifle series. At the same time I must say yours is nice a nice nit of kit and I'm glad you were set it up just the way you like! At least they've been around long enough to become more (?) beautiful classic looking. Personally think you should have used the advantageous and infamous T- Break. I recall a team from the UK at the Worlds at Roz's grimacing with every shot at their competitors lane.So damn loud I'm surprised many of the modern "latest greatest" huge bore airgun folks dont use them. Naturally that darn t-break was every bit as wonderfully functional an the entire. A most solid "apply directly to target rifle". Congratulations.

Sorry in replying to your comment,,,

To some people it may be an ugly gun. But one thing you need to be reminded is that it's not how beautiful the gun looks to make it shoot good. It's the monkey behind the gun.

Look up CASA Grand Prix in 2012. That gun USFT # 181 won Top PCP, I also took Top Spring Class. One other,, Can't hold the gun like I use to at 78 now. But I did have my time in FT., Small Bore NRA, and High Power, silhouette.

I agree with the above. I traded him for a rifle that is just impossible to get here in the US. He is right about an offer I could not refuse.

I need another USFT in my life. 


And to the post above about them being ugly. They are for sure an unmistakable rifle. And the comment on the r-brake is true. It helps give a few points edge in a match just from beating up the other shooters with the CRACK!
