The B25 from Mike @ Flying Dragon showed up (of course) right after dark. And tommorrow's forecast is for 70% rain chance--dagnabbit! I will report as soon as I can get a few shots through her.

These posts are getting very common. Lot of interest in a members new airgun review. Then its like waiting for a TV commercial for rest of the show. Well hope it is a good review and you get a excellent shooter. LOL

You will notice a thicker stock than your 34 classic, and a 2 piece cocking arm. Different scope stop, cheaper iron sights. Finish is not RWS dark/smooth, but good nonetheless.
that is where the differnces have ended for me.......the synthetic stock version is a dead-ringer for the older T05 panther.
Even though Mike checks them and lubes them, don't loose patience with the break in period. usually 500 shots.
IF you got the trigger mod, you will most likely end up sending him your t05 to mod as well. He does it very affordably.
Any grittiness can be smoothed out easily.
Good thing is, you should be able to set up the trigger near to what the T05 34 runs at.....potential to have 2 guns that shoot very much the same.
Good luck and God bless,
Farmer

Thanks Farmer, I agree. The fit and finish is not quite as good as the 34 but for half the price it's pretty close. BTW, which trigger screw is which?
Thanks,
Scotty

Did you get the mod?
they work kinda as a system.....Mike can answer better than me...
I guess you could say that second still adjusts for travel, and first adjusts for effort or pull weight.
Get your instructions from Mike, he describes it much better than me......
I adjust these things until it will hold past the bump test, and finger on the trigger test, but not much more. I like a light, short trigger. The B-25 has probably the best trigger of all my guns right now.
Again, call Mike directly. He is fun to talk to, and there is nothing lost in the email translation....in fact, you have a cell and he's not busy, he'd more-than-likely walk thru it with ya on the phone.
Once adjusted to where you want, lock that thing down somehow. Blue locktite before you start, plumbers tape, a drop of superglue, whatever you decide. But the 25 does have enough recoil to shake that adjustment loose. Dangerous when they are set light and short.
I take a "check it out" shot before I ever leave the yard with it.
God bless,
Farmer
