MY experience with Mike Melick from flying dragon air rifles has been great.Great person to deal with and talk to.Seems very down to earth.I live in las vegas and ordered a full tune b-12 from back in december and he told me that he would personally deliver it to my house because he was going to be attending the shot show in vegas.Well being that he was going to deliver the gun to me i also went ahead and placed an order for the xs60 co2 in .22.Unfortunatley he wasn't able to make it out to the shot show in vegas do to personal reasons he went ahead and shipped the guns to me and to my big surprize didnt charge me for the xs60 co2 rifle and appologized that he couldn't make it out to me.I really was looking forward to meeting him in person and bought some colds ones for us to put down and talk airguns.Ive talked with him a couple of times since then and thanked him for a couple of great shooting guns and hope someday i will get to meet him if he ever makes it out the the shot show here again in Vegas though he did say he may not be able to make it out here unless they loosen up on the restrictions with air rifles on an airplane because he said the drive is way to long.Well if he ever does come out he's got a free place to stay at my house.Thanks Mike Melick

I too have always have excellent dealings with Mike.
He has always been helpful, pleasant, and most generous.
He knows he has a standing invite for a big ol' BBQ, and a stack of cold beverages anytime he is in the neighborhood.

I just acquired a fully tuned XS46U that had been shot 50-75 times. I'm super excited to get it in my hands. It's my first ever tuned airgun. All I've ever heard about him is all good things.

I own several rifles from Mike, every one performs better than they ever should considering the price. His warranty policy is hands down the best ever. My grandson traded the Diana Classic 240 I bought him back to me for a tuned XS12 from Mike which I used to let him shoot. The XS12 is more accurate (one holer at ten yards rested) and the trigger that mike tuned is excellent. Between my failing ears and my crappy flip phone talking to Mike has not been possible. His terse replies to my emails gets the job done though. Dealing with others after Mike is a letdown.

No sense posting another thread when I can bump this one up again.
I recently sent Mike my Diana 46, which was shooting rather weakly. I included a Titan mainspring I thought may be a good fit. I also asked if he could get the T-01 trigger better, and if possible...to add a trigger stop. The overtravel was such that my finger would be pinched against the underside of the stock in follow-through. However, I didn't want to sacrifice much of the easy cocking effort that the rifle already possessed.
Well, Mike told me that the mainspring included was a beast, and knew I wouldn't be happy with it. So, he put in a stock D34 spring, tophat and guide. He told me that the stop would not be a good idea, and possibly hurt the accuracy, so I agreed to forego it. The trigger is to-die-for, a clean two-stage, with a short, distinct first-stage, and a crisp let-off. The lengthy overtravel is non-existent, and no more pinch! Clean, short, wonderful shot-cycle. The added cocking effort is barely notable, thanks in part to a smooth, quiet travel to the latch point.
Mike kept me abreast in e-mail, and then a thorough phone call to detail the whole result. Even returned the bad seal he replaced, along with all of the worn OEM original parts!
Updated w/today's chrono-string:
RWS 7.0 Diablo Basics
867 78 42 78 82 76 78 81 85 72
Highly recommended!

I too want let people know that Mike is very helpful and generous. Since he is very busy it can sometimes be hard to reach him using both email and phone. Worth the effor as he takes the time necessary to discuss your options regarding airguns he carries, etc.
He ships quickly with good packaging and would definitely buy again from him.

I have the previlege of being an 1 1/2 hour drive from Mike Mileck. Whenever I get a chance I go visit him. Great guy who does magic on my springers!! My youngest son and I enjoys our visit to his shop and range.
Mike not only collects airguns but also has an impressive collection of books housed in a separate building. The books and airgun library!!

Heres a couple of my favorites from Mike. He tuned my HW30s so well I splurged on a Corcoran stock. The CZ 634 tuned by Mike is also awesome and claimed a lot of nutters!
