I searched before posting this,the current list in the library is out dated.Does anyone know the nitro venom clones?Or is the rifle to new,I think it was 2011 when it came out.
-
May have to look this one up!
I have one in .177 and syn stock. Unless you are thinking of them being made in China, which they are!

Ya,I knew they were made in china but I couldnt find any info about clones.Mine is the synthetic stock too,how do you like your nitro venom,I love mine despite a few issues which crosman has been very supportive about sending me free stuff considering I told them I did my own tune.I cant wait to save up the money for a benjamin trail np xl 725,after I resolve the issues with my current rifle and accumulate some spare parts

Nitro Venom is itself a clone of sorts, based on B18/19 Chinese spring gun but with NP gas spring.
The BAM B18/19 were copies (not clones) of Gamo Shadow,220,440 spring rifles.
Crosman has used the same compression tube, trigger, barrel, piston, etc in many rifles including Quest, Phantom, Summit, TAC, Trail, Classic, Optimus, Vantage, Venom.... etc.

Ah,you beat me to the punch,I just found those at chinese airgun portal.Good lookin out
-
So,when these other rifles are considered clones,does that meen parts are interchangeable,or are they just in the same level or class of rifles
-
A "clone" implies parts are interchangeble, "copy" means the design is reproduced but parts may or may not be interchangable. Quest and Phantom and Vantage are clones of each other.
Ruger Air Hawk / XS25 are close copies of a RWS 34. That's how I sees it anyhow. :o
