Hopefully ,any issues can be chalked up to growing pains . I would imagine PA or AD placed orders for large quantities of rifles and some QC issues are bound to come up. The new tube issue that Travis mentions is not so confidence inspiring though.
Sorry to hear members are having problems.Unfortunately, Kral seems to have a reputation for issues like these.That's the only reason I didn't buy one myself.Quote from: PAcanis on February 20, 2017, 01:38:37 PMI'm an equal opportunity spender and AD just got my 500 bucks instead.Isn't Airgun Depot and Pyramyd Arms the same company, or at least owned by the same company?
I'm an equal opportunity spender and AD just got my 500 bucks instead.
Don't want to high jack this post but I love my Kral. I adjusted the trigger and it shoots almost as good as my Vulcan. For $500, I can't think of too many manufacturers that can come close to this gun with such available options. The shot counts on the gun is amazing considering it doesn't even have a regulator. I get dime size group at 20 yds, and quarter at 50 yds..25 Vulcan.25 RAW 1000.25 Air Force Escape.30 Impact
ahahahaa, I agree ..I order everything priority mail, ship everything priority mail and have an overnight coming from UPS today..Even walmart now has 2 day shipping for free on their website.. Cant wait till an amazon drone brings me pellets.

I didn't see anything indicating PA when I was on AD's site. And am too new to this to be in the know of who owns who.Hopefully they don't have the same 2-3 week policy, but if my new Kral has problems... or isn't as accurate as my first one was, I won't be replacing it. Which is really a shame. For the first 7-8 magazines I wondered if I'd ever shoot my Talon SS again. The gun fit me perfectly and I loved everything about it.I did have to tap one of the magazines a couple times to get the last couple rounds to index, but I figured that was normal, or just not getting that first pellet in exactly right.

let me ask this would you pay $580 for one that was gone threw and modded to really be quiet and have no issues?

As in $580 worth of mods? I'm not even sure that's possible. I'm too new to airguns to have a grasp on what modifications cost. Just what I've read about in some Airforce threads.I'd gladly pay 600-700 for the gun if the build/QC was a little better. I don't see where my Talon SS is worth more, but I've not had a problem with my SS yet either.And maybe the problems aren't that prevalent. How many of us have had a problem vs how many are out there and in use?As far as noise, it's slightly louder than my Talon SS, but it's still seems quiet to me. If I'm going for real quietness I'll screw a suppressor on a .22 bolt action.No shipping label from AD created yesterday...
He is trying to sell his...Its hard to compare an AF gun to this..There aren't really too many parts in an AF to break. . It is a very simple gun , I have several of them in the past so I know the ins and outs of the AF.
Thanks guys.According to their site the .22 model was still in stock.It's all boxed up now, so I can't check on anything else. I need to get it into a drop station for Fedex.We'll see how long the refund takes compared to them shipping out a new rifle.

Ahh... thanks.I thought he was offering to re-work them.If the Talon SS has fewer parts, it should be the one selling for $500 But I imagine being US made gives them the liberty to price them higher. Like Colt 1911's are priced higher than their foreign counterparts.
