My new .25 SPA M16 (Air Max Dominator) thread... :-)

[solder]

Are the P15 and M16 lever actions the same?

My Dominator just arrived looks great

I'll be happy to hold that Condor for you while you play with the Dominator.

Keith, congrats, looking forward to your initial impressions.

Hi guys!!

No time to catch up now, just checking in to see if the Big D had hit the scene, and to say I am safely here, and that I sent word on to Mike to ship mine to me!!

Yay for the D! Yay for Dixie!!!

:-)

I spent the weekend playing with the MKII with my Ultradot Matchdot II just trying to get everything right at 10 meters. Seems pretty good now the rest is up to me. Still working on the indoor range and I need to add better lighting.

Bill I have not even taken the time to set the Condor back up and test her. My bipod arrived so I will get to her this week.

The Dominator looks and feels great cocking is pretty smooth not that I have any experience with levers.

Glad to hear you are in safe.

I'm interested in hearing how you think it stacks up next to the Hatsan AT44.  The synthetic stock AT44 is a bit cheaper on clearance, but I don't think that was available in .25.  The Dominator sure is a nice looking rifle!

I got my AT44S 10 QE in .25 from field supply for $299.99. Last I checked they were still available.

Do You have Link for field supply ? Searched but no Find

[cobalt327]

Can't disagree with that.
That's why I'm just "window shopping" for now. No use doing something rash like I did with my Varmint.
Wondering if it uses the same low quality orings that are in the Varmint.

That's part of what I'm waiting to see.

Mrod is supposed to be supplying SPA with O-rings from The O-ring Store for all the guns they ship to them.

I'm getting just 28-29 fpe with the JSB 18.13's with my Dominator.  I had to take the trigger apart on mine because of a bad assembly from the factory, it's working good now though.

Isn't it likely that it's because it's still new. Things need to break in ?

[avator]

I thought the extra time it took to get them shipped was so they could be checked out?
Did I misunderstand?

[Wayne52]

I decided to use up some Beeman copper plated pellets because I'm not a real big fan of them.  They probably speed up the breaking in of the barrel.

Yeah Bill there were some trigger parts that were hanging loose in the trigger mecha, a pin and lever.

It's shooting good now though but I've got some adjusting to do next time I take it apart.  I'd really like to see an exploded view of this gun, I wonder if they're similar to the P12   My first goal is getting the regulator turned up cause right now the way it is I can get a lot of shots, at least 40+ anyway.  I really don't like wasting a lot of pellets, much rather use them in the Field.



The fit and finish really is nice, German Beech It looks good though.


The LDC on this gun works fantastic!!!

That is what i thought also.

Wayne,

Here's the exploded view.

[Wayne52]

Thats great John thanks a lot for the pdf. Now I'll be able to see how that reg is in there hopefully.  The hammer spring adjustment on it is right there once you take the stock off too it looked like.

[shultz]

Wayne,

Mine delivers tomorrow so I still haven't fondled one yet...

Sure looks like the hammer spring adjustment is right on the back of the breech just looking at the exploded view.

Not sure on the reg adjustment. I'd assume it's adjusted at the front via a nut or screw...hard to tell from the exploded view.

[smythsg]

John thanks so much for the M16 exploded view. Wayne, how are your magazine(s) performing? I had a little trouble with mine, but it is getting better with use.

[shultz]

Wayne,

Did your .22 come with a single shot tray? Was the weight on yours close to Steve's 6lb?


Steve, glad to help. I emailed Julie at SPA for the exploded view shortly after ordering mine.
