Want the Colibri in .25 so bad! Will it even have a chance to come out?

[deucelee]

Hi all,

I'm new. I currently have a Disco and MRod. Both in .22 calibers. I've been having the itch to buy a .25 Pup.

I'm infatuated with how the Colibri/Hummingbird looks. Just madly in love with it. Of course it breaks my heart to read all over that it works like complete poop.

So a couple of speculation questions are:

1.) What are the chances the Colibri will come out with a .25 within a year?
2.) If it's a good chance, what are the chances that Kalibrgun will fix all the bugs from the factory? 

I really like that side action feature of the Colibri and the Vulcan. If no one knows of good news for the .25 Colibri for the next year, I think i'll just go with the Vulcan.

thanks all!

The colibri was a highly anticipated gun. It was supposed to come as a semi auto but there were too many quirks. Kalibrgun launched this one in a hurry. In the last shot show Kalibrgun committed to rebuilding it from the ground up. Am pretty sure they will come out with it given that it's a unique design. Since they seem to be taking their own sweet time with it, Am fairly sure the bugs will get sorted. Don't expect it any time soon though. The Vulcan on the other hand is the smallest .25 cal available (a tad smaller than the .22 cricket) and has good reviews. You could wait for a bit more and pick up the Fx impact. It has the cocking lever in the middle much like the Vulcan. The lever on the impact is on the right though as compared to the Vulcan which has it on the left

Does that platform even have enough juice to support a .25 ?

The cool factor of the Vulcan is the cocking lever can be changed to either side. Last I heard no talk on a .25 hummingbird. It seems the demand is not up to par in .22 let alone producing a .25.

I posted about that Hummingbird several times. I said that I returned 4 of them all with air issues.

deucelee, That will always be my favorite short barrel. Quietest rifle I ever owned. Very quiet!

Now I own a vulcan, closest I could come to the hummingbird.

Kalibrgun decided to stop production of the Colibri recently. Best replacement is the Vulcan, but it is pretty loud. However, it can be tamed with a bit of work.
