P-Rifle on the way

[Back_Roads]

 The rifle is slim and light weight, reminds me of a child's gun LOP seems shorter too, Holding it reminded me of a .32 rimfire break open rifle I used to have. Light and utilitarian <~ I think I can say that here

Yes, you're fine. The way I understand it, the rules are against discussions on PB guns or posts that encourage discussions on PB guns.
For example... if a poster in the "what did you do today" thread said he/she went to the paintball park, it would be fine. But if he went on to describe the gun he would be crossing the line. Also if the posts incited a discussion on paintball guns, the thread would be locked if a soft warning is not observed.
In this case a simple comparison was made with the airgun being the object.
I hope this helps others understand how this rule is applied.

Glad to hear So far So Good !

Haven't aired mine up yet, awaiting some scope rings

As  far as the noise db, compared to a 22LR or short ?

Bill

LOL I actually came up with a sound comparison it is as loud as a Sheridan Blue Streak at 8 pumps.

Unscrew the shroud, throw on a regular thread lcd, and tell us about the mouse farts [chuckling]

I discovered that the p-rifle will fit in my bullpup/AR style cases if the moderator is removed.  I am gonna try fitting a handpum with the handle removed in there with it.  That would make a very convenient, whole package to take wherever.  Pump and rifle in the main compartment, moderator and handle in the zip pouch, pellets and such in the AR clip compartments.  Will post pics if I get it figured out.  Grab and go! The whole hand pump rifle setup!

P-Rifle delivery anticipated tomorrow evening,  i may be out on Friday, but likely to be P-Rifling this weekend.  My hope is that it outdoes the urban, which sets a high but not unreasonable standard for the P-Rifle.

Whoa... that would be a tall order for me... I loves me some Urban.

Likewise, The Urban is tough to beat in many aspects.

Well Rion,

I must had forgotten that this carbine has 11mm rail

So dug around an found some rings an an old Beeman 4X scope

Aired it up poped a few w/o pellets then set to zero it in

This thing Has a BARK to it, even with the small air deflector on

more db's then a 22short HE, HE, (don't own a Sheridan) 

Not a problem for me, but May Not be Back Yard Friendly for others

Surprising at how out of the box accurate this thing is with a low ball scope

picking off pine cones out at 35yd with no problem

Only issue so far tight fitting mags, should loosen up with usage

Now aired up let it set, ck for leaks tomorrow, if all's good LET THE FUN BEGIN

 I was shooting mine about 200 yards away from a woods this afternoon, Just  a good poof from my end, but I could hear a fait report echo off the woods. I bet on a calm night in town or near buildings it would be .22 short loud.

[splitbeing]

Here we go, billygee!

I also found the mags to be tight. I have mostly been single loading like I would with a marauder style breech.

I also found the rifle to bark out of the box.  Removing the shroud and adding a moderator with standard threads made it very quiet.  Huge difference!

I also found the p-rifle to be accurate out of the box.

An update on my search for the sweet spot of hammer adjustment:  i am getting 44 shots with an ES of 17 fps with 14.66 gr ftt 5.53s going a median speed of 903 fps.  I get 30 shots at 905 fps plus or minus 3 fps.  The next 7 shots drop into the 890s.  Then I get 7 shots up in the 905s again.  That makes 44 good shots.  The hammer spring is out such that I can count two+ threads exposed.  My only concern is at this setting I am getting some muzzle flip I wasn't getting below 900 fps with my gun unshrouded and a rocker1 on the end of it to which a chrony is attached (for now).

Gonna shoot my 44 shot 17 ES at just under 27 fpe p-rifle a bit more and see if the muzzle flip is affecting my groups.

Note from another thread but didn't post here: at 873 plus or minus 5 fps I got 35 shots plus another 9 shots in the 860s. That was with the hammer adjuster a few more threads out.

Hey James

Good to know keeping the db's down in open area

Guess my mistake was letting a few fly under my deck
then compared it to my Fortitude made just a Poof  (chuckle)

All an All have a DONNYFL Sumo 1/2 x 20  to get rid of that Bark

Have to now find an adaptor for it

 Well I looked over the arsenal for a gun with a Pinty scope, found one on the DF1, so I swapped it for the REX I had on it originally.
 Now the gun boast the Pinty name LOL 

Sighted in and ready to go outside to the long range testing.

I'm still waiting for mine to show, but thammer has what I call P-Dapters for the pinty series.

If you got a P-Rifle, consider posting a target in the casual match #5 like James did!

I'm gonna try and get one in today, but still learning to shoulder this gun and find the hammer sweet spot for my shooting.
