Haven't shot it much yet however it seems a crazy good value. Much better looking than the few pics I've looked at (dial-up, I don't look at all pics,LOL)
[smg id=2837]
arrived a week after I mailed a M/O well factory(?)packaged. I will get better pics but man it looks pretty good, not that looks are what count here but for $100 where would you save costs? Want to be picky, the bolt has a bit of side play when fully back-which likely can be remedied and effects nothing-. Had a bit of air in it when it arrive , 800psi?.
Assembled the pump without needing directions, it does come with the factory instructions tho, one possible hitch is so many extra rebuild orings & such and at no extra charge you sure cant complain about that. What appears to be a high quality gauge, glycerin filled I believe reads to 6,000 so likely a very good 3,00psi unit.
[smg id=2838]
So easy to pump to 1,500psi Tammy said "okay I'll do that for you", yah man, she had years ago said NO WAY to using the FT 2nd gen to refill the Career Ultra,hehe. I hadn't noticed anyone mention the feet fold so if you didn't mind removing the two screws that hold the handle on (with suppiled wrench's) it would fit in a small bag/back.
[smg id=2839]
I run numbers and begin tuning tomorrow.
If your still on the fence on this one ( I wasn't, just needed to sell something to buy something), the lowest cost ones are -first run- are about gone so grab one. And when the price goes up, still well worth the money!

Congrats on the new shooter ! That looks very nice.
Man ! I want one of those rifles Baaaaad ! ! !
Guess I'm gonna need to put some stuff up for sale soon.
How many consistent shots are you getting,... and at what pressure range ?
How many pumps does it take to get you back up to the top of your "sweet spot" ?
What's the latest news on the repeater breech mod ? ... availability ?,... and cost ?

I got one of these a couple of weeks ago and I really like it. It still has factory settings so I was wondering what your results were with the power settings.

Glad you got one John,i just ordered me one also,as i need a second nutter gun and this should be the one because of the lower pressure fill.Now when my tank gets below 3000 psi for my synrod .25 i can just pick up the 60c and keep on hunting until i can get the tank topped back off.100.00 for a pcp is just awsome.

I've got a thread RE the valves on these in the "Flying Dragons" gate, I had some issues but Mike came through amazingly well and FAST too - but along the way I put a 1/4" (approx.) spacer inside the hammer to add tension to the spring, it allowed me to get the gun tuned to the mid 850's with the JSB RS pellets for a really nice 20 shot string from a 1400psi fill, I've got numbers and pics in the thread, might be fun to mess with. These guns are SO easy to take down and work on, I've got it to about 15min front to back from shooting to stripped to shooting again, LOL ...
Just a hint, if You get stuck trying to depressurize the gun to work on it, pull the stock and trigger group, then the adjuster, locknut, and hammer spring (all safe while pressurized) - You'll see a set screw on the hammer from underneath, pull it - there's another retaining pin under that you'll need a tiny screwdriver for, pull it and the striker will slide right out. put your spacer in the hole in the striker, reverse the process, and You'll be able to tune a bit better as well as to higher fill pressures.
I'm in LOVE with these silly things, LOL - right now my nitrogen is at 2400PSI and it'll be wed before I can have it swapped - that's just fine though as I have these little guys to shoot

Here's another little tidbit. Pull the trigger group off, stick a straight blade screwdriver in behind the hammer and folcrum it forward against the valve pin... PSSSSSS degassed.
