just giving the heads up, I'm debating to get her myself but can't make my mind up ::) ::)
I just have too many guns :o :o :o
-
There was a 50 cal forget which kind but I almost pulled the trigger on it the other day.
Was under $500. Nice shape.
-
Yup Bob it was another dragon, looked almost new too. Started at $500.00 and then it was dropped to $450.00. It sold pretty quick..
-
There is a place has them for $550 new.
-
If it's that bbguns.org place they are some kinda unmanned site, if it's someone else let me know :)
-
Ya....thats the one.
-
Hey missed the first one but I slammed the 2nd one.
On it's way...come to Popa!

OK guys, I'm the guilty party. I got the D.S.50 from the yellow classifieds and been keeping it under my hat since reciving it because it's been pouring rain where in Ohio since I got it . Wanted to shoot it some and at least give a little info when I spilled the beans. So yesterday Jay (another member here) and I went to the range to check his B-51 and do so adjusting on it plus two of mine needed sighted in .( B-50 and the Dragon Slayer 50)
Well getting Jay's B-51 adjusted and and my B-50 sighted in didn't take to long then we started messing around with the D.S.50. Sighted in at 25 yards and then took some longer shots at 75 and 100 yards. Didn't run a string across the chrony, will do that later. It seems to me that 10 shots per fill to 3000 psi is about all that can be expected.
The rifle is accurate at the closer ranges but drops off hard much past the 75 yard mark. The I'm impressed factor went beyond Jay and myself judjing from the drool I wiped off it when I got home. The powder burner guys were impressed to. Got all kinds of comments like didn't know there was such a thing to what the heck a 50 cal. bb gun?
As I shoot it some more i will post a shot string and add some more impressions.

hehe Glad you let the cat out of the bag Gary. Yep did drool on his new toy but just a little(more fingering than anything :P), what a nice looking gun he got though, super wood grain on stock,bluing is very rich an dark an like he said the guys at the clubs range where impressed to say the least. Myself I didn't think the hold over for 75yds was really anymore than to be expected launching a .50cal ball,just a tad over 3 mils for it to hit small clay pieces out on the berm,would take rabbit size game out to that with ease, so I would rate it very accurate(shots touch at 25). Man I want one now!!! But I need to get a tank(TANKS) set up first. YOUR the MAN Manny for pumping your big bore guns by hand dude.

Hi Gary,
Any tips please feel free to email or PM.
Haven't taken mine out yet. Guy forgot to include the ammo he promised and the fill probe. May have to put in an order before I can test it out.
