Aircudas long term field testing

 We will have a extensive parts selection that will be available from dealers. We do not sell to the public.

Mid April

sounds good.

We will have a extensive parts selection that will be available from dealers. We do not sell to the public.

That is good news. Might be nice if in addition to maintenance parts there were some tuning options:   light / heavy springs, maybe hammer weights or light / heavy hammers, for low power or high power tunes, and different caliber barrels for the unregulated gun.

Don’t know how many would be interested and make use of it if the guns are really kind of optimized in stock form.

If I know what I think I know about who will be some of the sources for these guns, there will be options to have the guns tuned and set up to your desired specs.

[Mr.P]

Even better if parts are available for home tinkering though.

Yeah they seem to respond very well to adjustments, spring changes and hammer weight changes,.......all that can be done quickly and easily.

a few different springs, hammer weights in your house and you can really dial the Standard in to what you want with also the 5 positions transfer port adjuster to further how much you can play.......and if you want to go deeper you can also adjust the valve return spring to limit the valve opening.

[Mr.P]

Is there a way to adjust hammer pre-load without disassembly, like an AF style power wheel?

All you do is take the stock off...one screw, the just screw in or out the big hammer plug, put the stock back in.

the all operation is merely seconds.

Maybe i'm missing something, but on all my rifles that require the action to be removed for HS adjustments, all i have done is put the 1/2 in wood drum wheel on my dermal & make a u shaped channel in the stock. A little touch up with stain & Poly & your good to go. I think some manufactures butt the HS against the stock so that it can't back out? I make mine accessible but also put vibra-tite on the treads & haven't had any issues.

You are completely right many do that and works good, the stock in the Standard would lend itself well to that mod, I myself once I find where I want to be I hardly mess with it for months, until I decide to go in a different direction

Just ran a speed test with the MAX,......of course could not write the numbers down because I was shooting as fast as I could.
Everything looked normal, hovering just above and just below the 850 mark not one spike either way.

That's a solid regulator!

Anyway, I'm just doing some extended field testing and trying things out,......the real reviews will be from those guys that will eventually buy the guns and share their experience on the forums.

Since I'm waiting for the hammer weight from Troy, today I was just messing around with the Standard, degassing it taking it apart and putting it back together ( not all the way to bare bones ) just simple things that normal people would do, not the extent the expert tuners get to.
Anyway, very easy and intuitive to work on it.

I have been reading this thread for a few weeks and I can say that it has absolutely no useful information at this point or in the past few weeks.
It almost feels like promotional/marketing material.

 It's good that it's easy so beginners like me can't screw up as easily. Lol

Lol .... go too and read other threads about these rifles

Yeah the professionals are posting on other threads, I'm just the dumb airgunner that talks about ergonomics, weight, size or rifles, power and eventually durability

Nomadic, do you do videos of your tests or just pen to paper?

I did videos but not a big fan of talking on camera, most of my videos are silent just shooting and showing groups or stuff like that.
