falcon fn19

[tomburras 2,730]

hi guys i have just purchased a falcon fn19 single shot in .22, i have never used one of these or known anyone who has one so i know nowt basically on the performance of these guns. i paid £300 for it in good condition with silencer, 2.5-12x50 scope (German reticule tho)real tree gun bag and rws stirrup pump does this seem a fair price? any info or comments on improvements or mods gratefully received

i have been told that the twang from the hammer spring can be taken away using the plastic wad from a 12 bore cartridge, and is a common modification on these. does anyone know how to do this?

 

many thanks

theres a falcon owners forum, those guys sorted me out with some sound advice. they're apparently a bit rare are falcons, i was trying to find out about mine which i bought off a mate and found bugger all. mines not even in the falcon brochure! soz but i dont know owt about the FN19. what i do know is that i absolutely adore mine (which turned out to be a PF18 MP) its my first pcp after i got rid if my tx200 hc mk3. its perfectly capable of one holers at 25 yards. it sounds like you paid a good price to me. iv also heard about the de-twanger mod, but my local gunsmith , probably quite rightly, told me that what twang there might be is barely audiable down range. i had to replace the silencer on mine cos the standard falcon was a bit crap.

 

hope you get as much enjoyment out of yours as i have mine.

i have fallen in love with mine too! i ordered a detwanger from the falcon forum and have sorted a service kit and new decals. i had an air arms s410 before and the accuracy on this thing is easily on Parr. new scope fitted and weihrauch mod on the way

 

bloody love it
