[fishcrf450r]

Where can i get one from in side of usa ?
Archer is out of stock wont reply to email about when they expect new stock .
Flying dragon is done selling them .
Who else sells them ?

Or can anybody reccomend alternatives run off paintball co2 tanks without remote lines .

Buy a 78, then cut the threaded end off. Drill the end to accept a 79 drop block. You get much better consistency because of the larger pre-chamber. You may need to trim the end of the stock a bit to fit.

If you haven't already, send an email to Mike M at Flying Dragon
His sight said he was out of the QB78 Deluxe, but he did have one. It was cheaper then the "other guy" too. If not keep and eye out on Gunbroker.

Here is what I did with my 78.

Nice job .

You also just could buy the tank block adapter and add it to a 78.  I think some used one from Jds airman.  There is an old thread in the darkside gate done by Ribbonstone on how to install it.  Stock may need some hole drilled to secure the adapter.  There was some one who added it to a XS60C also.   JMO

Thanks - it wasn't really hard, just takes some time and planning

Do you actually have one of the Wolf kits, or are you thinking of putting in an order? If the latter is true, it might be a good idea to do a Google search for reviews before moving ahead.

an alternative to a 79 on co2 tanks is an 850 airmagnum with a BnA airsource to paintball adaptor

it's a repeater also, aorund $240 street price plus adaptor

Archer had a post on the chinese a/g forum saying he just got 78's in. I just ordered a 79 from his site. It put it in my cart then I deleted it.  Don't need one.

Even though Mike's site says "Not available" I would call or email him. I picked up my QB at Christmas from him. Even though his listed price is more, it actually winds up being less as he has the shipping cost included. Plus I would rather support a vender who supports the GTA

[fishcrf450r]

Sent mike an email . Hope he has one .
Can anyone tell me if the ar2079 is any more accurate than the qb79 .

[fishcrf450r]

Mike had none of the qb79s . But mentioned i could bulk fill the tube on a xs60 pcp with co2 .
Has anyone done this yet ?  If so how did it go ? Also mentiond the b50 with a different cap on the tube .

[fishcrf450r]

Nobody has any thoughts on filling a pcp gun with co2 .
I can't be the first one to consider doing this .
I am not worried about lower fps as this is just for target on paper .
The qb79 has low fps also .
Well i will be ordering something by tomorrow .
So any input would be appreciated .
By the way pcp from mike vs qb from steeve .

[BigTinBoat]

Not sure, are you asking a question? If so should, plenty of thoughts, Crosman even markets the Disco and MRod as "Dual Fuel" guns. Plenty of guys "bulk fill" Qb's and 22XX guns with CO2.

[fishcrf450r]

I am asking for opinions .
More about bulk filling with co2 on the fdpcp and b50 .
Vs running a qb79 on a co2 tank .
Price is about the same for all three right now .
Would the pcp guns run about the same fps on co2 as the qb79 .
Thats what I'm looking for . And and was wondering about shot count with co2 in a pcp .
Also reliability .
Thanks for any help given  .
I plan to order something by tomorrow .
Original plan was a qb79 last week untill mike m. Mentioned the fdpcp and b50 on co2  something i had not concidered .
I'm not after high fps i has other guns for that . Just a accurate fun easy plinker . Mostly for my wife .and if i like it enough one for me to .

Well the B50's are all gone so cross that one off the list.
As far as CO2 goes, on the same gun, CO2 will shoot about the same velocity as running a bottle at about 750-800psi. A gun running on "bulk" CO2 will shoot the same as one that is "bottle fed" CO2.
As far as shot count goes I'm pretty sure a FDPCP on CO2 should get more shots then when filled with HPA, but the velocity will be lower.

If it were me, and I was planning on running a CO2 gun it would be the QB79 over the FDPCP just for the ease of filling. To me it would be easier to just change the bottle out and get it filled at store vs bulk filling equipment

[fishcrf450r]

Thanks for your help .
I do have my own co2 fill station .
Thats why co2 is more atractive for me .
Figured the pcp on co2 would be less front heavy for my wife than a qb with a bottle out front .
But i think that I'll just order the qb with a 9oz tank and drop adaptor , then order a 4oz if its too front heavy .
Again thanks for the help ...

Phil......get a refurb Disco. It's ready to fill with CO2. I bulk fill three guns on CO2 and the Disco is shooting a 14.9 gr. pellet at 635 FPS at 78degrees F. That's all the power I need. I've dispatched squirrels to 35 yards and Starling even further. It's as accurate as any gun I've shot except my Savage .17 HMR. Good luck.
