Semar Neo Fl PCP rifle?
- Thread starter far_shot
- Start date
It’s made in The Phillipines by Mr. Able.
I had over 500 air gun friends from The Phillipines when I was on FB. Very friendly but hard to communicate with.
That was, maybe still is their #1 pride & joy leading mass production competition, all around rifle. I wanted to buy several over 6 years ago but import/export laws would not allow it.

No. those are not made here in the Philippines. Those are probably made in Indonesia based on the captions of the pictures

Indonesia, Phillipines? My mistake & I apologize but I definitely remember a Mr. Able ( Wyady? unpronounceable) Surname is the engineer/owner.
I looked it up and he’s still involved as it’s listed as IR & Able company.
If Indonesia is the origin of this gun, can anyone explain why they couldn’t accept money to ship me any? As I said it was very hard to communicate with most air gunners though they were super friendly.
Is there any chance laws would allow such an item to be sent to say UK, then here to US?
I’m interested because these things allegedly were really great. I just made myself forget about them and considered unobtainable.
To OP. What drew your interest in them? They were just ramping up mass production when I’d simply stumbled upon them.

Def Indonesian. It IS very hard to communicate with them due to a very low adoption of english, especially in those areas where airgun makers there do business.
They're decent guns, tho very limited in design scope. They tend to copy the same design over and over (supposedly a knock off the Huntsman sidelever mated to a marauder based trigger assembly), with very little differentiation across the different makers. They can't seem to get past that decocker as well. Another problem is they design for .177 only due to country regulations.
This is one of the better made examples, with clean aesthetics and machining. But I've seen the whole spectrum from bad knock offs to this.

That looks nice. I think you could potentially run into some problems with that name "Remington" as I think it's a US-based firearms company.
You'll probably need to put some English subtitles into your Youtube videos, if you want to start cracking into the international market.
I've never been to Java. Must be a completely different hunting universe, compared to what I deal with here: squirrels and raccoons. I've visited Malaysia and Singapore before, but not Indonesia.
