Things I liked:Just like any Russian-made weapon, this one is reliable, tough as a tank, and built to handle the abuse. Awesome open-sight hunter and fairly accurate out to 50 meters. Few rabbits found it out the hard way, hehe. Things I would have changed:To keep up with a signature, the front sight also needs to be made of steel

Things I liked:Additions like ambi grips, scope rail, and ambi safety are what I was looking for. Things I would have changed:I'd protect the front sight with a globe. What others should know:The reason for inacuracy in your shooting technique. NEVER rest a spring-piston gun on anything solid. Sand bag is no exception!

Things I liked:Solid feel. Good looker. My buddy just bought it and he asked me to sight the gun in. I did but I told him he really needs to break it in first... anyway, there are much better options fo the money, but if you feel like this is the one, go for it. One inch group at 30 yards shouldn't be a problem. Just stay subsonic, learn the

I did but I told him he really needs to break it in first... anyway, there are much better options fo the money, but if you feel like this is the one, go for it. One inch group at 30 yards shouldn't be a problem. Just stay subsonic, learn the firing behavior, use right techniques, play with different pellets but stick with the most accurate, pick a strong good quality scope, and go from there. Things I would have changed:Trigger. What others should know:This one vibrates and hold sensitive gun. Takes a lot to shoot it well.
Someone said he is the Navy firearm instructor? Obviously that person don't have a clue how to shoot a spring piston air gun accurately. Most of firearm techniques DO NOT work here. Do a research on that subject,sir... Oh, forget about sand bags! Only firearms and PCP air guns can really benefit from that. Tom Gaylord wrote more than enough here about spring piston guns and what it takes to be accurate with them.

Things I liked:PCP kind of accuracy. Things I would have changed:None What others should know:Super accurate rifle. One hole group at 25 y. and 1 in. at 50 yards with Kodiak pellets. Outstanding firing behavior. No vibration, and no sensitivity to how do you hold it. Excellent 2 lbs trigger. Great wood work. Definitely

Things I liked:Everything. Great plinker and pest control tool. Things I would have changed:None What others should know:Don't get carried away though. It's a 12 fpe rifle at the muzzle in .22 cal. The outer limit would be 50 yards - WITH EVERYTHING ELSE DONE RIGHT! Someone said 80 - 100 yard shots on squirrels and birds?

It's a 12 fpe rifle at the muzzle in .22 cal. The outer limit would be 50 yards - WITH EVERYTHING ELSE DONE RIGHT! Someone said 80 - 100 yard shots on squirrels and birds? Hm....Forget it. Squirrels and birds need 3 -4 fpe to be dispatched cleanly IF you place that pellet precisely into a kill zone. So beyond 50 - 60 yards you'd have no energy left. Like I said, it's only a 12 foot-pound of energy gun. Be a responsible shooter. If you want real power, go for a Condor or one of the S.Korean PCPs.

Things I liked:Relatevely accurate for a springer of such power. Things I would have changed:Thicker stock screws. What others should know:I found that the best compromise would be a spring piston gun that is under 18 fpe range at the muzzle. What do you need that extra power for if you can't use it anyway?
If you hunt

If you hunt small game and pests, all you need is 12 fpe@muzzle. That will get you out to 50 yards, of course, with everything else done right.
This one kicks hard, vibrate, hold sensitive: all signs of imperfection.
Next time consider adding another $150, and buy a decent quality PCP that is TWICE as powerful and has NO recoil.
Overall, it's a fun gun, I agree.

Things I liked:Look, accuracy, power, easy to modify, relatevely light. Things I would have changed:I'd change the trigger, because it is very stiff, along with the safety. I'd add extra weight to the hammer or install a lighter valve spring to utilize 3000psi pressure; everyone knows that this gun don't shoot like it supposed to
... Read MoreThings I liked:Look, accuracy, power, easy to modify, relatevely light. Things I would have changed:I'd change the trigger, because it is very stiff, along with the safety. I'd add extra weight to the hammer or install a lighter valve spring to utilize 3000psi pressure; everyone knows that this gun don't shoot like it supposed to straight from the box - the sweet spot starts around 2700psi. I'd start changing original butt plates to Morgan adjustable. I'd also think how to improve the grip because it is very ugly.In addition, instructions say do not adjust Condor's valve (top hat). Well, what do you do if it comes off on its own? It happens A LOT. So, AF guys, you need to work on that as well. One more thing: I'd start purchasing .25 cal conversion kits because it becomes more and more popular. What others should know:Things to think about. This gun shoots pretty good out of box. But, "pretty good" is not good enough for me. In order to get this gun where it needs to be, you'd have to spend at least another $300. Remember that AF rifles have no regulators, so everything in the gun has to work excellently. If you want maximum accuracy, efficiency, consistency, and power, consider modifying it AFTER the warranty period is over. Otherwise, just save up your money and buy one of the Daystate, FX, Theoben, W&S, AA, Falcon, or BSA rifles.
Things I liked:Quality and performance. Conical tip provides good penetration while a hollowpoint dumping all the energy on the target. Things I would have changed:I would like to see .25 cal. version of it. What others should know:
