straight from my tuner about my gun
Fit and finish excellent, nice proportions and the gun balances and shouldrs great.
out of the BOX, 130 FPE for the all 7 rounds Magazine.
By the time will is done with the tune this will be one *(&^ of a hunting gun.
Wow, I'm excited now ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
-
Where did you purchase from?
-
Pyramyd of course :)
-
Congrats on your new gun. Nomadic Pirate, who's your tuner?
-
Very nice Manny, I may have to buy me one of those ugly suckers after all. Did he say how loud it was and if he can work any majic in the shroud?
-
yes he can work on the shroud, he can even slide it forward a bit, but I told him I want to keep my gun short,...he mentioned that isn't all that bad factory anyway
-
That has to be one of the ugliest guns I have ever seen.
Oaks
-
The Rainstorm II? Ugly? Beauty is truly in the eye of the beholder...
-
130 fpe WOW... ;D
Did he give you a shot string or shots per fill??
What all is he going to do to improve it?
-
The 3D PUP
-
Congrats on the new ag. Hogs beware.
-
The 3D PUP
I agree the 3D bullpup is pretty nasty. The Rainstorm II, I think is beautiful...
-
The rainstorm ll is sweet. I was looking at the Custom made Haleys they are nice but they don't take regular pellets. This concerns me.
Oaks

People are free to buy whatever they want to buy ,therefore: To everyone their own.
Congrats man, 130fpe is some serious power stock.
post some accuracy test when you get the chance brother!
-
Tiger of course taste is taste and anyone can buy and shot what they like. From the passion that Manny displays about PCP air guns I know he has researched and found exactly what he is looking for an animal of air rifle. He dropped some serious coin to buy and tune this gun. Congrats. And please post the number, the accuracy as well as Kill pics which there will be many ;D.
I also have to say when I first saw the Air Force Guns Condor and Talon I thought they were Ugly as a tree root but they grew on me and I think they are real sweet. Look at me my fiance loves me and I is ugly as heck!
By the way when Will Piatt tunes one of these Animals say a Windy City, Rainstorm or Storm ll how much does the power increase? Does the accuracy increase as well?

My Rainstorm II .25 is sitting at UPS about 10 minutes from me. I called today and tried to talk them into letting me pick it up at the building, no dice. So I guess I will have to wait until Monday :-[

Powell I will be on here Monday night to hear about your new toy! Go down and knock. I need my box today! ;D
I am outside cronying all my springers with this galaxy app.
Oaks
-
Galaxy App? What exactly is it called? From Itunes?
-
oaks...galaxy app?what is it called? Today was a nice day to shoot outdoors...hope you enjoyed!
-
If you have a smart phone an iphone or a galaxy you can down load a crony app called chrono connect.
Pretty cool
Oaks
-
I have an iPhone and searched for that app and can not find it
-
Thanks oaks, I found it in the app store for android!There are 2 versions, a free one and one that cost $4!
-
tiger and rld1965 go to my post in Crosman Benjamin Gate. There are three or four you-tubes on how to use it. The Post is XL 1100 Tune.
Oaks
-
Tiger did you test the Crony app?

Oaks, I just installed it on my phone ;D, I will test it Tuesday and give you a feed back. Had guest during the week end... >:( >:(
-
I tested it Saturday it seemed to reflect the numbers these guns are supposed to shoot. But nothing beats a Chrony.
Oaks
-
If you don't mind my asking what kind of ammo are you using?
-
as you can see from my post, the gun is in my Tuner's hands, I'm getting the info from him, I'll post more as I get more info as he tunes it

Will Piatt, saddlemountain gunsmith

Will Piatt, saddlemountain gunsmith
That's who has my Rainstorm. I had heard good things about Will & after speaking with him, I see why people like him. Very nice & the man knows his business.
-
You boys have your guns off at camp together. They'll come back better men.
Oaks
-
Manny how long do think it will take for you to get that gun into your hands?

Will is sending her out tomorrow, so I would say by Monday I'll have her.
Apparently the factory tune is all it's needed on the .357 model, they did their homework on this gun.
it's a 120 FPE gun with the 71gr Roundball and 130 FPE gun with the 93gr EPP/UG
so somewhere in between with the 78gr JSB pellet, Pyramyd don't have any in stock so testing could not be done with them.
-
Holly cow that thing is beast outta the box. What did he do to the Pup?
Oaks
-
only thing needed was a trigger tune :)
-
Manny that's great.is it true that you have to take off the external covering to reload it?
Oakey
-
Oak,
I highly doubt that. It has a magazine just like the other Evanix. I would see no reason that you have to remove the cover. It is a repeater, just like the normal Rainstorm.
-
What kind of eyeballs you thinking about putting on it Many? I put the True Glow reflex on mine and I dont like it so I ordered a scope for. A 2-7x32, just enough to see at the ranges I will shoot.
Let me know about the trigger too when you get it back. I can see plenty of room for improvement for it without too much trouble.
-
Rob, Will took the trigger down to 2 # and says it's super sweet now.
I'll top her with either a 2-7x32 Leapers, or a swat 3-12x44 Leaper, we'll see what feels better :)

C'mon Oak :/ ...how many guns do you think they would sell if that was the case ? ;)
-
I thought it was odd some one posted it over the past week and no one commented.
Thanks
Oakey
