Tau 200 Jr

[lallenr]

Thanks to Tim at MAC1 for installing the Tau Hangy Tank adaptor onto the factory bulk fill cap. I was able to shot the Tau this weekend. 

I had a 24oz CO2 paintball tank that I attached to a paintball remote with a slide check.  The Tau Hangy Tank Adaptor has a check valve built in and the slide check in the paintball remote allowed the CO2 inbetween the slide check and the foster fitting to vent.

The whole setup worked perfectly.

How do you like your TAU-200 ?

Watch out for the thin section of the trigger guard, rear part of the lower guard where it curves up.  The resin stock material is thin and there is no internal reinforcement (like glass fiber) to prevent it from cracking.

palonej,

She groups great.  Still trying to sort out the best pellets for her.

I am going to use her for Air Rifle Silhouette (target class) at my local range (Benton Gun Club.org).


ac12,

I love the triger on it, it is very short and crisp.  I have the Jr version and am thinking about making a hardwood spacer to add an extra inch of trigger pull.

I will watch out for the lower trigger guard. So far it is ok.

I see you have a scope on your TAU.
If you got the TAU with the rear sight, put the rear sight into a clear plastic bag, and put a label in and on the bag (TAU-200 rear sight).  And put it into a box labeled (air rifle parts).  I have seen and read about too many FWB-300s where the rear sight was "lost" by the prior owner when they put a scope on the rifle.  Replacing a lost rear sight can be difficult and expensive.
