Still have to machine the barrel to get it to fit.

i think my best bet is to find someone that has a barrel to sell.

8 years later.......

Well I couldn’t tell you how many tins of pellets have gone threw this pistol, well over 12,000 rounds. I keep five barrels for this model, both 17&22 OEM barrels plus my customs, I find myself mainly staying with the longer 177 barrels as I get the flattest trajectory for pest control. It’s still a tack driver and not overly pellet fussy out to 10m after that quality ammo really shows.

My list of problem that have occurred:

1) chipped spring in the valve keeping the valve closing 100%, which created the seagull sound while pumping. ( easy fix)

2) trigger spring pop out of position ( once only) creating FTF ( easy fix)

3) trigger sear engagement issue, create from improperly setting up the adjustments in the trigger

4) broken latch spring on the topper frame ( still broken, fix coming soon)

Unlike many purchases I’ve made threw out life, I’ve never regretted this purchase. It has been my most reliable air pistol ever! It’s always my backup to my PCP rifle ( pesting) since it doesn’t require an air supply.

All I can say after eight years......A simply amazing pistol.

* 9.9 out of 10*

Genuine/ honest, unsponsored review for those wanting the truth. Cheers
