Being wanting one of this bad boys for quite somethimes now, Pretty excited about this one ;D ;D
-
Congratulations!!
I got to shoot one of those, once. The sensation of power is unbelievable. It was LOUD but very cool, and accurate as heck. The looks are either something you like, or something you don't- I think the Korean guns are bitchin' cool.
Mac1 does always caution not to leave Korean guns charged to 3000 psi overnight. The stock seals won't take it. I don't have much experience with them but I don't leave the Dragon charged, on his say-so.
-
Yeah, I love the "LOOK" of the Koreans ;D ;D
I allways shoot mine down to in between 100 and 150 BAR before storing tham away.
-
That's one mean lookin' mutha.
"The adjustable power wheel has 13 settings"
Get busy with that power wheel, brother. Pig popper amundo. ;D
Can't wait to see trophy-time.
What kind of glass you got planned?
-
I like the look's also. Keep us up on it Manny.
-
This is going to be a nice dual purpuse gun, small game and pigs ;D for those long, mountain climbing hunting days, being so light and compact, probably will carry my 9mm DAQ pistol too on those hunts, just in case ;)
I have a 4-16X40 and a 3-9x40 Centarpoints sitting in my draw, will see wich one sits on her better being such a small gun.
-
The world just got considerably more dangerous for hogs and other critters now that you have that Sumatra on the way, Manny.
;)
Will expect lots of pics and stories.
-
Interested to see what you do with it. Hope you got a .25 that can make power. Interested to know the fpe and shot count.
-
Congrats! Keep us posted!
-
Just got the E-mail from Pyramyd and she's shipped allready, so I'll get her wednsday, ..Stoked !!! ;D ;D ;D ;D

Hey Manny,I have to say I think your gonna Love the Sumatra in .25 caliber! I just got mine a bit ago and haven't even had time to type a review as I hate to put it down! Now I love my springer's (All 5 of them) but this gun is just Dead on Accurate and hits like a Mack truck! Mine loves the 31.02 gr Barracuda's and Eunjin 35 gr pellets and when they connect,well it isn't going no where he he.Just for fun Saturday I happened to notice that Red bugger raiding the sunflower seeds I leave for the song birds and blue jays and he seen me at the same time then proceeded to scampered off out past the last backstop I have at 50 yards.His one mistake was he stopped half way up the tree and started to scold me and that was his last,lol.I just happened to have a a full clip of barracuda's ready to go and she was on the 3rd to last colored dot on the power wheel so I dropped behind the glass and almost held over him about an inch and then realized,ah this isn't the 350 he he,so I crossed on his head just between his eyes and and squeezed that real nice trigger and all I heard was the report and no sign of him.I walked out to inspect my miss,(Thinking maybe I should have held over a bit),but upon arrival realized she was a true as she was on the target and his head was pretty much gone.I've never yet seen a hit like that with that much damage,but she definitely did her job! After going back I chronied her on the same setting and she's tossing them 31.02 gr barracuda's at 971 fps (or 64.96 fpe),and that's standing 6 feet back from the chrony,he he! I'm super impressed with the energy this thing puts out,It's just wicked. Anyway,,Hope you enjoy her when she lands,,I know I'm having fun with this one,lol. Happy Shooting
-
Nice !!!! I like to hear things like that,....now you made the wait even longer :D :D :D
-
He he,,Sorry Manny,,I've been pumped since mine landed,lol.I still can't believe the Power though,,I guess I'm used to the 23-28 fpe springers and never had such raw power before.Now your used to all that Oomph with the PCP's you have,this is my first.Btw,,what's the deal on leaving them up on 2800 -3000? I can't find anything in the manual and now I'm worried as mine was at a full charge today while I was out with it and Mac1's recommendation I just seen above and hope mines not suffered any damage.Thanks,Troy
-
It's O.K. to have them full charged for awile, even couple of days, but when I put them away I leave them between the 100 to 200 BAR mark.
Does yours shoot better starting at 3000 or 2800 psi ?
-
Oh Thanks Manny,I feel better now as I was freaking thinking I may have left her too long,Whew! I'm Sorry I'm just getting back to you as we just got back in(Forgot to Log Out before I left).Yep,,she shoots good on the 3rd,4th and final mark on the wheel,(Actually from 2600 up).Also I was pretty surprised I didn't have to change the Zero from the 3rd mark to the last.I'm still amazed as I had her over to a Buddy's place a bit ago and he's thinking on one now,he he. Hope you get a gem as well! TTya later

Congrat's Manny! If she's anything like this one,she'll knock the living Daylights out of anything you shoot at,he he.This one here is doing one heck of a job. I Love my springer's and shoot them almost everyday,but when it comes to anything out past the spinger's reach,,this Ole girl is the one for the Job! I stuck this 4X32 on her to take her out until my New scope arrives,so Please ignore the scope.Have Fun with the powerhouse.
