REX trifecta.

[mrbulk]

As much as I love open sights I really wanted to have the ability to take the pistol out and if I needed to be able to use it as a Mini- Carbine too.

So I mounted a 1.25-4 pistol scope.
I mounted the scope as far forward as possible so it works like a scout scope when I put the rifle air tube on.


The holster I already cut long time ago to take a scope so I was all good there

I dig the mini-carbine look. So you just spin on the longer air bottle with the butt stock attached?

Correct,

I have 2 extra tubes both with the buttstock,
screw one out, screw one in

All I need now is to source a 9" air tube to make the Mini-Carbine and the Mini Mini-carbine really into what they should be.

I like the shorty at the bottom. I also dig how you cock these guns with their “trigger guards”...

It took me awhile to warm up to this platform but now I absolutely love it ( wish they still made it in .25 )

It's small, super lightweight, very ergonomic,

when you open the lever action and you hold it with the left hand the gun rests on the crock of your arm and it's super easy to reload, also the bullet holders I found are great at holding the ammo right by the breech and super fast to get ammo out and reload.

A real pleasure true hunter platform.

.......and you can shoot arrows out of it as well as bullets , just waiting for the Airbolt to come available at Pyramyd to get more and set up the Carbine for arrows also.

That's a great looking set.

Love the scoped pistol setup now, I've got 2 pistols setup like that that have optional stocks, too with the forward EER.

Have you at all considered getting a bottle adapter (I have seen rex variants with them from factory)  or high flow valves?  I know the ones you shoot bolts with have plenty of punch already for that use....

Problem with a bottle set up it becomes like Airforce ,........the scope is forced way to high for my liking.

Has anyone built a dual tube setup, like on the Leshiy?  Seems like that woudl be fairly straightforward.

That would be the ticket, and would look good too.

For my applications I don't need a shot count and rather keep the weight down so I prefer the set up as is,........to find Titaniun tubing tho, that would make the light guns even much lighter
