not used .177 but i have a .22 8shot. decent little gun in my opinion, easy to use. about 70 shots per fill.

i do like the fn12 more though

Hello Shay

 

I had a Falcon Raptor Lighthunter in 1999, it was a nice gun and basically the same as the FN19 but this one came with a couple of 8 shot Mags and a Skeleton stock. It was a good accurate rifle as expected with all Pre charge guns! it was light but I have to say the brass bolt mechanism was a bit iffy and felt rough when the grease started to disapeer, the blueing was also nice and rich but would soon start to rust even with the slightest condensation, I also didn't like the tiny 0 Ring breach washer fitted into the Barrel on my .177 aswel as only getting around 65 shots max....

 

apart from that I snipered the usual quarry with it no problem, I would also go as far as to say because how light this gun was and the way it locked into my shoulder with the adjustable recoil pad it was more lethal than this Ranger for me, the Ranger is a tad over 10LB scoped but this Lighthunter felt like a toy weight wise ....

I have the forunner to this rifle a Tiatn manitou.

Have had the gun since new and cannot fault it.

Gives 65 - 70 shots per charge and very accurate.

Puts out about 11.8ftlb with air arms field.

Think it was 'designed' by John Bowkett and hes a legend!

Sure if you want to know more there is a Falcon owners site, plenty on there.

If you want it footprinted then John Bowkett again.
