20FPE vs 20FPE : Pumper vs PCP

[DavidS]

Some guns that you would probably really like David are the Sharps pump rifles:

There was an entire series of quality rifle that show up from time to
time ranging from those incredible deal at $200 to collectors $700 but they are nice guns.
(the ace was the economy model I think)
(wish we had an importer picking up used ones in japan and shipping them over here...)

I have looked at the Sharp AirRifles.   As I understand it they are about equals to the Crosman 140, is that correct?

That Mohawk is one nice pumper, WOW.   I did not know that something like that was made.


I can understand the convenience of the follow up shot for sure.   That is the reason that I have experimented with ACP as well as with HPA designs.

There are times that I wish that there was a best of both worlds, a 3+ shot ACP that you could adjust the power as low or as high as you want for the gun quickly for each and every shot.    Though to my knowledge there is no best of both worlds.

There is. The FX Indendence & Indy.

A bit out of my price range .  Also I did not know that they could be adjusted down to a 7FPE shot.
Thank you for the idea.

Not sure you can dial them down to only 7fpe. Why would you want to use such a low power range? Do you plan on fine tuning each & every shot according to whether you're shooting HOSP or a raccoon? That's being too nit picky.

No I am not that picky.   Though if I am going to be doing a lot of short range paper punching I want it around 7FPE, if I am doing a lot of fur bearer hunting I want to dial it up around 15FPE, unless it is something on the larger side of small game, then crank it up.

Just my personal preference.  I know that every one is different.

Pardon My francais, but what the heck is that!!??

Titan Mohawk .22 cal. It's a 6-7 multi stroke pneumatic from England no longer made. It's a John Bowkett design. There are a few designs and stock variations. Titan went out of business and then the company Falcon was born. Falcon used a lot of the designs (and parts) from Titan guns. I have a Falcon FN-12 and some of the parts are interchangable with this Mohawk.

First three pumps weren't too difficult. But the next four or so got progressively harder with each pump. I sold the Mohawk a couple years back.

Sweet! Sure looks nice! Thanks
