Thats a beauty i must say. Can you pls post the pics of scuba tank and how do you charge the Rifle ? Thanks.   Posted: Mon Jan 21, 2008 2:41 pm Rogerflat Silver Status Member Joined: 03 Jan 2008 Posts: 2051 I used to think those Airforce rifles sucked. I've always disliked pcp's, mainly cuz I've never used them, and I thought it looked a little too flashy, kind of liked those exotic looking professional target competition rifles. But then I realized that I like the pistol grip rifles a little more than conventional stocks. And I started to appreciate the space age beauty of the condor. When I researched it more, I was pleased to find out they are nearly as quiet as springers and slightly more powerful in some cases. If I ever have the money, I will be getting one. _________________ I done been assisted by the trees and rivers.

The cousin of the Condor, and I think we might even have the same scope! I just set mine up this last weekend and sighted it in, etc. Very cool and very powerful. The only big difference between me and you is that I have an hand pump instead of a scuba tank! Let me tell you brother, after you have the hand pump, you'll be thankful for that scuba tank! Fun guns all around! _________________ John God is great in '08 Re: Condor   Posted: Mon Jan 21, 2008 2:52 pm BBGun Bob Veteran Member Joined: 29 Oct 2007 Posts: 474 Location: Michigan Leopard_125 wrote: in .22 cal.

The gun seems to be very accurate to 90 yards and still carry some hit.   Posted: Tue Jan 22, 2008 3:04 am broommaster2000 Moderator Joined: 10 Mar 2007 Posts: 5714 Location: City of Groningen, Groningen, The Netherlands Leopard_125 wrote: I must say though the SCUBA tank is the way to go just filled it after about 600 rounds thru it and it cost all of $3.00 dollars to fill. really i'm still cinda new to this air gun stuff but I' think PCP any kind is the way to go, sometimes techno( this is the 21 decade) is the way to go.

CO2 is more expensive in the long run, unless you try bulk-fill, allthough Bulk-fill is still more expensive too. _________________ BIG GAP   Posted: Sun Feb 10, 2008 10:27 am cw Banned Joined: 10 Feb 2008 Posts: 1771 Congratulations! You are really going to enjoy the power and accuracy. I've had mine for about a year now. They are great for hunting as you can see from the photos. The peacock was taken at 75 yards and the geese were taken from 85 yards. I shot the big one right in the middle with a Eun Jin 29 grain. It went clear through him leaving a 3/4 inch exit hole. Blood and feathers sprayed 10 feet. He dropped instantly. They can be made near silent with the right technique. Try some long (70-100 yard) shots with it. You will be amazed at the accuracy.

I have to say though, I like classic looking PCP's a lot more. I'm thinking of Evanix, those are some good looking rifles. _________________ BIG GAP Air force CONDOR     Air Gun Home Forum Index » General Air Gun Questions and Topics You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum All times are GMT - 5 Hours   Page 1 of 2   Goto page 1, 2  Next All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First  Select a forum Main Forums----------------AirGunHome Q&AGeneral Air Gun Questions and TopicsPicture GalleryTarget Shooting: Casual, Fun and CompetitionHunting, Pest Control, Varminting People/Events/Airgun Issue Discussion----------------Introduce YourselfThe BS TopicClubs/Events/Regional/Political Airgun Issues Maintenance, Modification and Reviews----------------RiflesPistolsAntique, Collector and Novelty AirgunsBB GunsPellets/AmmoOpticsAccessoriesAirgun Smithing Buy, Sell or Trade Forums----------------For SaleWant to Buy   Note: If you are seeing "Please enter your username and password to log in."
