Just as a proof of concept, I jerry-rigged the FX radar chrono to the end of my tank on the FX Crown. It worked, measured the velocity seemingly reliably. So wherever you aim the rifle the radar chrono will read it. Should work on any rifle where there is space below the shroud and/or the barrel.
Also should be able to use it with those 3D printed air-tank rings someone makes on this forum where you can attach a tripod to your bottle. Or just extend a rigid rod from the tripod mount location towards the end of the barrel. or if you are not worried about POI change, just make a clamp and hang the radar chrono from the shroud/barrel and mount it below towards the end.
Good opportunity for folks with 3D printers to make some money if you make a nice looking and functional design...
if FX would get rid of the 3 heavy AAA batteries and replace them with rechargeable li-ion packs....and also get rid of the heavy metal base-insert.....the FX radar would have a negligible weight when mounted on the end of the air bottle/shroud/barrel. Have some other ideas, but later on those...
