Petr at topgun-airguns.com should have in stock. I have that gun and it us fantastic.
Yeah, Kricket .25's are on my wish list for the same reasonsThe only other rifles I've seen that can match it would beAmerican air arms sport pup and carbine.(unless I missed one?)plus the AAA's are lighter I believe and there are a few others things I likeabout them but they aren't available yet.
Any of you guys know where I can locate one in .25 cal? Does any one have one? Im looking at the gun and its the only pcp that jumps out at me now being that it gets almost 60 shots, regulated, 45 fpe with a certain pellet( which is plenty enough for me, though i dont mind more ). any pictures of bullet holes? - I have heard great things from this cricket guns and have read a couple of reviews but would like to read more. Cheers Jay
Give Matt at WWAG a call I got my 25 carbine there. Had them ship directly to Ernest to be tuned . WWAG and Ernest both excellent folks to deal with. Fantastic gun.. powerful and accurate as *(&^
I like how the gun looks but I'm looking for something different. How much is am Earnest Rowe tune?

How much is am Earnest Rowe tune?I paid 150 which included Ernest's cost to ship it to me when he was done with it.. he even mounted and zeroed my scope, and put a note on the scope box 65 = +1 I had told him when he called me that my backyard range was 35 yds and I usually used that distance but also went to 65 yds at times.. when I moved to 65 sure enough 1 mil dot hold over was my 65 yd zero.. right on the money....money well spent imoDude! That's incredible. He's here on GTA?
Can't wait til my penny and dimes add up so I can buy one. Question since this is well within topic, how hard are they to hand pump?

Question since this is well within topic, how hard are they to hand pump?A Cricket is not really a gun that people hand pump. I got very sick of pumping guns that had half the capacity. I think if you pumped it once to 250bar, you'd probably never want to do it again. There is no point in trying Imo (unless you live nowhere a place that can fill tanks). The shop where I bought my 4500psi tanks sells used 30 minute ones for $115 with a fresh hydro, a full air fill and 7 years of life before they go out of service. My hand pump cost more and has sat in the corner unused since (waiting for an "emergency"). My tanks fill my .25 Cricket in 30 seconds.If you just hunt occasionally and don't plink or target shoot ever, you might be able to get away with pumping. It won't be harder than pumping a Marauder if you only pump to 3000 psi, it will just take twice as long. I get around 50 - 60 shots before I refill (depending on where I fill up to but usually 220 bar). That would be enough for a few hunting trips but I would never want to pump my Cricket after every plinking session. It would take all the fun out of it.The shop where I got my tanks always has dozens of used ones in stock for cheap. I know they have 45 minute shorts in at the moment too. There are always tons on eBay too. Make your own fill station with components from North Shore and eBay and you will have a 4500 psi tank set-up for less than any hand pump. Zero skill is need to make a fill adapter. The parts just screw together with a wrench. There is always a lot of hidden cost with PCP guns. I think that if buying a Cricket leaves no extra cash for extras like a tank, it may be better to buy a cheaper gun and use the extra to get a tank, decent scope, bipod etc. The Jkahn .25 bullpups with a LW barrel and regulator are a bargain in comparison. They would be easier to pump too, if you had to.
