Philippine bench rest gun

[kzz1kaw]

I finally got my 25 meter br gun today. Tank is the larger one regulated at 2000 psi and a 177 lw barrel. The rest is made using drill press and lathe. Stock is made of Philippine mahogany. For stock payment we traded for my hand held paintball Chrony. I will finish the stock starting with 1000 grit sand paper working my way up. I知 not a wood worker but I do know how to sand. Is there a type of sealer to use after I sand the wood smooth? The guy in the pic is a friend and also a gun maker. He is booked but squeezed me in on the stock. He calls it his version of the bm 500. I have to agree very similar.

The mahogany looks nice. Ken, are you bringing that back to the USA? How she groups?

That's a beauty for sure!!  That also looks like a Sumo action!!

I haven稚 shot it yet. I知 borrowing now his portable Chrony to take to the range. I got some jsb monsters 13.43 and 10.34 to try out and adjusting the hammer spring with these pellets to see which one or not will group at 25 meters. Yes plan on bringing my bull pup ( see in my posting on the bullpup update on what I did) this one and the side opening breech gun back to the u.s. I知 just going to break down the guns and put in the luggage wrapping them with my clothes and hope for the best that they make it back undamaged🤞🏽

that looks incredible ! it does look like a sumo , which was a gun designed by Chip smith ( awesome titanium machinist )  about a decade ago that weighed 25 lbs and was a lights out bench rest gun at that time. I guess we need to get our drill press skills up to par here in the states (-'

No, it is definitely not a bulldog. 

Sorry, it was a discussion in another thread that Tom and I were having about converting a Bulldog action to fit in a rifle.   

Your picture does give me an idea on how it would sit in a rifle stock, though.  Thx.

Wow!!! That is one sweet rifle.

I see the resemblance with the action. The Filipinos can look a a picture and replicate it or come up with their own designs. I give credit where credit is due. My hat off to them for their passion in designing and shooting airguns as much as we do.

Put the finishing touches to the stock. Plan on going to the range Sunday and shoot 25 meter bench rest to see what pellet and speed the pellet likes. LW barrel 177 Got some H&n match 10.65, air arms 10.3, jsb 10.34 & 13.43 scope is a sightron 4-16x44 surplus $49.00 crystal clear made right here in Cebu where I知 at currently.

Gorgeous!!  If she shoots half as well as she looks, you'll have a winner!!!

Mr. Ken, there are lots of airgun maniacs in Cebu City. I myself am a Filipino but I don't have locally-made airguns in my repository. I imported some from the US and bought some from PB Dionisio in Davao City. My latest, an Air Arms, was purchased from Precision in Makati, Manila. Randy Paronda, the owner, sells high end airguns including RAWs, Steyrs, Daystates, and Atamans. I am now in the US, btw.

There is also a barrel called DBB acronym for Davao Brass Barrel. The maker does very nice work, too, and his barrels are very accurate.

Good luck on your shooting!
