Try using "GTA" for the discount code...     Should get you $40 off.

Sometimes it pays to read the GTA ads at the top of the page.

Just checked. No shipping charge, paid $238 plus $16.07 tax for a total of $254.07. I had used the code WINHUNT for $41.99 off the $279.99 sticker price

$40 is basically what I got off on my order using code Black20, today.

Me too.. that was before I learned of the GTA code.

Received mine yesterday and finally opened it up  today to look at.  I’m super impressed with the gun.  Decent quality, look and feel. For the price point I think it’s a home run.  Gassed it up and took a couple of shots- even with GTO lead free pellets (shooting in my basement) the gun is  quiet.  I would def say backyard friendly.

I ordered and received a Pinty Bullpup QM23. It arrived yesterday in excellent condition.
It's surprisingly light and compact.

So, a quick barrel cleaning, a few shots and left it overnight. This morning it had lost no air pressure so over the chrony it goes.
I loaded a full mag of JSB 15.89s and fired away. 880 fps plus or minus 3 fps. Amazing for a new gun, new reg. It stayed on the bench until this afternoon.

I dug through my scopes and found a compact 3-12 Bugbuster that would seem a good match. This is where the problem became apparent. The gun has a picatinney looking rail. The brochure says 22mm picatinny. The mounts would not tighten. Two different sets of mounts just flopped around. I even found a Pinty 4x tactical with built in picatinney mounts. A caliper revealed that the mounts are only 19mm wide.

Anyone else have this problem? I awaiting a response from the seller listed I the brochure. I hope it's an anomoly as I think I'll quite like it if it's accurate.

  From another thread I believe I read the rail is actually a Weaver (20 mm). So Weaver mounts fit on Picatinny, but Picatinny won't tighten on Weaver. A set of Weaver scope rings should solve your problem.
  If anyone sees a flaw in my response, please chime in!

When I ordered my bullpup I also ordered this Pinty scope on Amazon and it fit without any issues, but the scope is advertised as having rings that fit both Weaver and Picatinny.

As posted by member smythsg:

"Well, I have now confirmed that the rail on my rifle is a Weaver compatible rail, but not Picatinny. Weaver brand name rings will work, but Picatinny rings will not. I have many sets of Picatinny rings but did not have any Weaver rings until today"

[smythsg]

Hi Billy, yes I experienced the same thing you did with rings. 20 mm rings work fine with the Bullpup, and my rail measured 19.6 mm as well.
 I ordered these rings: (
and this riser for my red dots: ()

Both worked great for the Bullpup.

Hmmm, looks like the links got stripped from the post...just PM me if you have any questions, happy to assist.

Here you go Steve. Weird issues with posting links on Amazon sometimes. Try using clean link when copying. I also had to hit enter after the last character in the link before the /url to make them show up. Weird thing is they show up in "preview" just fine

I wanted to do a little shooting today but first I had to cut a little firewood for my wood stove since it's been in the low 20s here at night and it is supposed to rain the next couple of days. Luckily I have plenty of big dead oaks to choose from since I had a logging crew cut down a half dozen that were a danger to my house

Because of the different rail width, it seems that any universal mount would not be centered on the bore in one rail, be it picatinney or Weaver.

As long as the scope rail is mounted on the centerline of the rifle the mounted scope should be on the same line, no matter what the width of the rail is, from an 11MM dovetail to a 22mm and larger

[smythsg]

Jared, thanks with the assistance with the links. It is strange that the preview did show the links fine before I did the post...

I was able to successfully zero both my scope and my red dot so I assume the rail is centered to the centerline of the rifle.

The difference in "width" between a picatinny and a weaver rail is the "front to back" width of the spaces and rails, not the "side to side" width.

If that's the case then anything with a single positioning lug/nub should work on both.  Wouldn't you think?

As long as the bolt transversing the rail is no more than 3.8mm in diameter it should.

I didn't knew the difference. Great info!

The rail on my gun is 19.87mm. Any 21mm mount will be slightly offset by almost one mm
