This one.

Don Cothran 2240 pcp tube with fill adapter threads cut off, 14.6" 2250 barrel, Kid Pellet drop block, Tippman 9 ci bottle regged at 1800 output pressure, slinging Crosman 14.3 points right at 20 fpe for now.

Now I just need a scope or red dot and a single point sling.

Fun little carbine.

Thought I saw a factory stock stock, but you cut that a bit eh? Darn nice piece of kit there.

Lacking mad skill's my shorty is the AF Escape UL set at 30&1/2" with everyone's favorite cheap Chinese (should have gone custom but...) adapter installed. Turns out in the right hands the little Cannon is MOA, shocking to me. Need to tinker with the Maximus sometime.

Thanks for sharing.

Yes and lots of shots. I went with a LW barrel but the 14.3 is my pellet choice also. Mine started out as a CO2 gun but after buying every hot rod aftermarket trinket and really just wasting money, I converted it. Started off with a 3-9 scope but the dang thing is so accurate that it now wears a 12x Bugbuster.

Your carbine is what inspired me!

Didn't realise the AF was so compact! Seems the Maximus was shooting pretty good?

Out of all my guns I’m a little surprised that my Crosman inspired someone but I’m glad it did. There is something special about shooting something that you basically built from almost nothing. Definitely something you don’t get shooting cookie cutters. I don’t feel like doing math right now but I think yours might be shooting a little hotter than mine. I’m shooting 700fps and I did do a shot count one time but it was so long ago that I can’t remember. But it’s a lot.

800 fps is where I left it, but I'll probably turn it down when all is said and done -

What kind of reg is that on your bottle? Looks like your bottle/reg oal is shorter that the set ups I'm dealing with?

The only pcp's that I presently own and shoot are Crosman/Benjamin builds, but your mini bottle build got me thinking.

And post mini build, I now have an excuse for yet another tweak - my first bottle build in the custom camo stock now needs to be a .25 - no point in two .22 caliber 22XX bottle builds.

And so it goes -
