Description

With the introduction of its line of .457-cal Texan PCP air rifles that use 475cc carbon-fiber air bottles, AirForce Airguns has lightened up each of the rifles in the Texan line by about 20 percent. These tanks also feature AirForce's upgraded TX2 valve which, according to the manufacturer "increases efficiency and power to the next level," giving this new breed of Texan unprecedented power. While the standard, aluminum bottles' maximum fill pressure tops out at 200 BAR (roughly 2900 psi,) the CF bottles' 250-BAR (3626 psi) max fill pressure produce muzzle energies over 700 fpe in the Texan and Texan LSS and up to 600 fpe in the Texan Carbine and SS models.

So, if you are the owner of a Texan that sports an aluminum bottle, all you need is this carbon-fiber version with its Spin-Loc attachment technology to upgrade your gun and increase its power* while losing a little weight. Or, if you already own a CF-bottle Texan, it's always a good idea to pick up a spare for those long days in the field.

Order yours today and help your Texan lose a little weight and gain a little power!

 

*Note: These carbon-fiber tanks will only fit .457-cal AirForce Texan PCPs. Additionally, while the bottle can be installed on older models, when this is done and lighter ammo is used, the lighter ammo may cause a valve lock or for the ammo to become stuck in the barrel.

Great tank in my opinion delivers plenty of punch for my 457 bought a extra one for times I might be on long trips

Put the gauge in a different place but really its fine but lower profile would be nicer

I have a carbine 457 so it may be different for the longer barrel but for the carbine it works super well

Light but shorter than the stock aluminum tank. Could be a pro or could be a con. I like it but...

The shorter tank makes the gun unbalanced. Very front heavy now so my bipods and my forearm gets a good workout lol. Other than that it's fine.

Expensive but nice.

carbon fiber bottle is awesome.

I received my bottle from pyramydair and tried to fill it. It would not fill. I then called pyramydair who told me to call texan air gun. I called texan air guns to find out it had faulty valve. They gladly sent valve free of charge including shipping free. thank you texan air gun. It gave 1 star because Pyramydair sent a faulty bottle so be carful where you get your equipment from. If you can go straight to the source for accessories of this type.

super light weight

i personally would have opted for a cnc polymer buttstock that slips over the bottle vs the little "heavy" piece of steel that screws to the end of the bottle. that little piece of steel weighs almost as much as the bottle itself.

Solid OEM upgrade to my gun. No fuss... just installs nicely.

The but plate connection is a single screw (same as the original) I think some sort of detente to prevent it from moving once you've set would be helpful.

It is almost TWO inches shorter than my aluminum bottle... kind of a big difference. Had to change my riser and adjust for the LOP.

Agreed

Same here. I guess the one bolt holds it ok, but it looks cheap on such a pricy gun

Lightweight. Seems to be more efficient, getting a couple more shots out to 50 yards than expected.

Not sure why but seems do better at 3400 than max fill at 3600 for your first shot. Best load 45 Cal 350 gr. FP. At max fill first couple shots drop off as though tank was overfilled. I would recommend a test fire before taking hunting.

The trade off in weight is good. You can keep your original tank as back up in the field.
