China are now doing to air rifles what they did to fighter planes!

If I ever win the lottery I have promised myself one of those nice Edguns! It is beautiful sir!

 

What knocking up rip-off copies and using them to fight American GI's in pellet alley !!!

To my eye she's one ugly looking beast but if you like it thats all that matters.

 

But could I ask what the point of a bullpup air rifle is, your not likely to need it in a APC any time soon and it looks like it would be a pain to reload quickly ?

[AR177 588]

Yes she is not going to win any speed contest .. But I'm not going to be using it for that, it's for the odd hunting trip and shooting targets, if I was going out hunting I would use my .22lr or shotty, I could probably reload it as quick if not a fraction slower than any conventional rifle, the downside is needing to break position when doing it

 

When I'm using my air rifle I'm doing so for that one shot, not to miss reload and shoot again.. The only reason I got multi is I can't be bothered messing round with individual pellets in a pouch

 

Your right I don't plan on assaulting targets from the back of an apc but in the short time I've had I I find it much easier to aim, hold and Shoot compared to a standard rifle. This is the long version so overall it's probably as long as an ultra.

 

It must just be one of those things like the people who drive reliant robins you don't have it because it's the fastest or most expensive (it was bloody expensive) you have it for the love of the thing

 

Just because it's different there is no need to be frightened haha

Maybe not an APC but useful when bagging bunnies from a 4x4!

No need to be harsh lads, these rifles are renowned for being extremely accurate, reliable and very effective at FAC levels.

 

 

Good luck with it Adam

[AR177 588]

No idea what the shot count is at the minute mate, they put out about 55 'sweet spot' shots In FAC according to the guns on the talon forum.. Not many sub 12 out there so I'll have to shoot it down and see

 

I find the more I have hold of it the better it feels, loving it!

 

Put the first few shots over the crony 11.6 high of 605fps low of 597fps .. Will do some more pellet testing incase it needs to be turned down slightly

 

But first impressions I'm over the moon with it

Hope it proves worthy of the wait and look forward to hearing how you get on with it. Great to see something a bit different!

What is the timber? It looks like iroko or something, not wavy-grained but it looks super tight and stable.

 

i'm marmite-y within my own mind on bullpups in general, sometime i love them, sometimes not but this is pushing me into their little stubby arms! nice
