"billydjann"JKhan Krosa Noblesse ( owners )...
Could you give an honest opinion of this gun..... the .25 caliber looks very interesting indeed.
Give me your thoughts of the good and the bad.... how do they stack up to other bullpups....
I see a regulator and silencer are now offered as well.
Thanks in advance
Factory ldc is a hollow tube btw.
but yes, according to today standards all airguns should be regulated. But again you usually loose power in .25 with the regulator installed. And it also depends on who installs the reg and how it is done and what volume is behind the reg, transfer ports size become vital, especially in .25 and > cal it matters to sustain velocity. From what I was told the .25's come with a 1:14 twist rate barrels, so these do better on higher speeds as far as accuracy goes. Ideally, sure it would be great if these would come with 400cc air tubes, running on 300bar, with regs set at 150-170bar in .25 cal. But on a 280cc from 200bar a regulator won't do much in .25 and above, say if they set the output to 150bar.
How do they compare to other bp's? I would say if one cannot afford a Cricket, Bobcat, Wildcat or Pulsar, I would seriously consider the Krossa. And I will tell you why. Rainstorm platform is proven, gun uses a one piece receiver block to assemble the action. They mount the barrel good length in the receiver block too. Fit and finish is good also.. Side lever mechanism is very smooth. Gun comes with a long Picatinny rail, so one can put a night vision unit very easily. The stock shape on these just feels really good when you shoulder it, gun is very pointable. Pressure gauge is underneath the stock. 17-25 cal use LW barrels, the 9mm uses chrome moly Japanese bore. Mirror polished barrels too. And parts for the rifles are build by a very large and reputable well know factory not only in Korea but worldwide. QC is tight because CNC machinery is top notch. So there is no gamble like say buying a Chinese import pcp from completely unknown source of manufacturing. Walnut stocks are superb, and some come with a very interesting patterns.
So I would put them in the top 4-5 pups you can buy right now, for any money. And out of all the Korean "variants" of these, because of stock design, clean overall design, and trigger linkage, and trigger blade form, in my view they are the best Korean made bullpup out there, when you look at form-function, price and barrel choice.
Rifle version btw, also come with weaver rails on top, that are machined into the receiver. So you can use qd rings for easy scope or nv unit mounting.
Overall they do give a lot of gun for the price with a German Walther made or Japanese barrels. And the mags are all metal, not made from plastic, and they cycle real well too. And the guns are equiped with anti double load mechanism.
