Other Your Top 3 From Talon Tunes

Tony offers a nice selection of high-end airguns, and I am curious to find out what the majority of you would rate as your top 3 pick’s if you could choose anything from his inventory selection… please list (in order), which offerings would make your top 3 including the make, model, and caliber?

I would like to say that AGT rifles offered by Tony are among my favorites, together with the Daystate rifles.

The only reason why I have not bought a Vulcan 3 700 mm in .25 Cal from Tony is because I have the FX Panthera. The only clear advantage that I would get buying that Vulcan 3 is the possibility of shooting slugs..... Accuracy of both, the Vulcan 3 and the Panthera, with pellets, should be really close one to the other.

I have never own nor shot a Taipan, so I may not have an opinion in regard of those.

Have ordered several guns and items over the years from Tony. I think the last was a .25 Impact. Just like the poster above... Tony asked what I wanted it to do and a couple weeks later, the gun came to my door doing exactly what I wanted. Some years later, it's still doing it without a hiccup. Hard to argue with that!

I wrote down how it was set up. Why? Because I can't keep myself with tinkering.......but that's the reason I ordered an M3.

Recently purchased a veteran 2 from Tony. The cocking lever feels like it is housed in oil. By far the smoothest of any gun I’ve ever owned. In typical Taipan fashion it has a great trigger as well. It’s also extremely accurate. Very pleased with it.
Hearing this comment, I want a Veteran2 now.

Got my Vet 2, U2 and V3 from TT delivered as requested. Like mentioned above, Tony called after each order was placed to see how I wanted my rifles set up. The Vet 2 Tac is indeed the smoothest action of all 3. I think the knob on the lever could be a little higher as I tend to bump it easily with my trigger knuckle when bringing the right hand in. Minor gripe! It is also the only one I haven't felt the need to moderate .
 
New TT customer myself. Like the others he called and chatted me up about the rifle and my uses for it. Also requested to hang onto it for a couple extra days as it was the last P-3 in .25 he had and was wanting to test the ZAN slugs out of it. He threw in some TT swag and a baggie of the ZANs in exchange. Very nice feller. If I decide to pick up a larger caliber later this year I'll be a repeat customer.
I've yet to shoot the P-3, bad weather turned to warmer but too windy. When I do get too, I'm sure it'll be as others have described.
 
I ordered my M3 from him. About an hour after I ordered he called me, thanking me for the order and asking what I wanted the rifle to do.
It came doing exactly what I wanted.
I have bought two PCPs from Tony and my experience mirrors yours. What products he sells is not what it is about. HIs communicatons and service is why I will buy from him again.
 
I purchased a Taipan Vet 2 tube from starlingslayer.22, a member on here, great guy. I received it last week from him well packed and in like new condition. It was originally from Talon Tunes and it is in .25 caliber. It handles my 50 grain boat tail hollow point slugs in the rotary detachable magazine and two magazins came with the gun It has a laminated wood stock. Cocking handle operation is extremely smooth, magazines are much easier to put in than my Kalibergun .25, and lock securely into place a little easier than the Kalibergun as well. Trigger is very crisp on second stage and it is even more quiet than my Huben .25, or in other words it is very very quiet. One of the things that really impressed me was a key chain quick connect/probe combo that has a friction fit plastic cap over the probe end. See photos of it below. From a machinist standpoint the rifle is very well made and over all high quality of all machining, which of course has been done with CNC equipment so of course every Vet 2 should be identical in quality of work, provided quality control and final inspection are done by a capable and skilled human lol. I think it will soon become one of my favorite means to ruffle some feather or make some fur fly. Its not exactly light weight, but that is the only thing that might be a con for someone who is used to a lightweight airgun. I hope they come out with a .30 caliber one someday. I am happy with it thus far.
