Well I went and did it

[Booger]

I just couldn't resist. I wanted an Evanix Bull Pup, but got a Sam Yang. Pyramid Air just had to send me a 10% off coupon. I really like the power of what is stated from Sam Yang, and if all else fails I can send it in for a tune. So here is what I ordered:

Sam Yang Recluse 500cc Air Rifle, 9mm / 0.357",  PY-2510-5008  $699.95

10-for-$10 Test! PY-S-1 $10.00

Quick-Disconnect Male Fitting + O-Ring PY-A-2841 $19.99 (I got this to make my MROD and Talon fill systems the same).

Air Venturi .356 Cal, 105 Grains, Flat Point, 100ct PY-P-964 $19.95

Not only did I get 10% off, but I $50 off using my bulls eye bucks. I will order some more JSB pellets, but I used my credit card to get this and tomorrow I will pay my credit card off. I just might pick up another tank (Great White). Now I need advice from the Pirate.

  Congrats !  And I thot .25 ammo was getting spendy.

[Chemdawg]

I was considering a Sam Yang myself.  Let me know what you think?

[Booger]

I have a Hill pump, Benjamin pump, Ninja 90 ci tank, and today I just bought a Great White. I see pellets flying down range.

Congrats on the new gun, I know you've been debating on what to get while that cash was burning holes in your pockets.

Thank you. I decided to go with power and a new air tank. This way I can retire my Hill & Benjamin pumps. Maybe more $$$ for more guns or a Freedom 8.

Congrats.  Can you please post a review of your Recluse, trigger, accuracy, pellets/slugs used, etc. when you start shooting it, and a 5-10 shot Chrono string?

Thanks,
Harry

I just bought a new crony because I tore up my last one

So, what does that work out to from my 100cf 3300psi tank..... maybe 100 shots?  WOW !!!!

[Nomadic Pirate]

Those look like the numbers from the single tube right ?

For the good or bad?

[Nomadic Pirate]

BAD, Will can make them nice, but they are pretty heavy out the box

Not sure, it's what PA had posted on the website.

[Nomadic Pirate]

I just checked, yes the single tube.

Total different shot count that the 500cc

[avator]

Yep, you're right, I see the difference now.

Not to steal the thread but, you all may find the humor.... I repurposed a baby stroller for a tank cart. Betty Lou asked me if it was going to be sturdy enough once the tank was full of air....... Still shaking my head.

Paul B tuned my MRODS & my 1701P, he did wonders on the trigger and tune. I might call him because Will has such a long wait time.

I must confess I am getting worried about the trigger. I am a trigger snob. I just bought 6 additional tins of 9mm pellets and now I am scared the rifle I picked might not be the one for me. All I can do at this point is hope that the trigger and accuracy is acceptable and if not I hope PA will let me exchange it for another rifle and pellets. I am keeping my new crony.

On another note I bought a Great White full armor tank, they were told me the tank was really the same size as an 88, but had better parts. They do nickle and dime you though. I could have gotten the same size tank from PA for $699 so I decided to go full armor for $777 (only $78 more for cover and feet), by the time I got through it was $918.48 because it did not include gauges, something else, 3% for using a credit/debit card and shipping. I will also give a report on the tank. Right now if I had to do it again (before I have seen the actual tank), I think PA would be the better way to go.

LMBO, that's like the old joke; "What's a pound of feathers weigh?"
