She's a beaut'! Of course, it's raining today but I will still try and get out and put her through her paces later! Just as a note, not pictured here there is also a fill probe that comes with it and I already have that attached to my Umarex Hill MK3 hand pump and will get a picture up later.

The fine folks at AGS let me compare the two they had in and pick the stock that spoke to me most and I really appreciate that! The other one is really nice too, but the grain is a bit more clean and precise and I like the wild look personally! Still a far cry from all the figuring and flame you see on Daystate's Instagram, and in many of the youtube videos... but she's a gem, and she's mine and that's worth something! The magazine is usually shown with a blue color in product photos and in the manual, but mine came in all black, not really sure why?

I cannibalized my UTG bug buster 3-12 scope and those are the "high" sports match rings but I could have maybe gotten away with the mediums... hard to say but this gives me some future-proofing. I'll get a photo up later of the mag clearance, and do plan on getting a nicer Hawke scope later on but my wallet is hurting right now. haha :rolleyes:

Let me know if there's anything else folks want a photo of!

Anyway enough text for now on to the eye-candy!

congrats it's a really nice specimen. Seems to me AGS let you choose the AATx200 that called to you as well - it's nice to have that kind of support.
Show us what groups it does with good pellets!

Really nice, Luna. Congrats. The grain flow through the wrist is really good too, shows they laid out the stock well on the blank.
The rifle deserves a BETTER scope, imho. :D

I like that safety. Are the bird feeders for bringing in moving targets? looking good

hahah No that's in town. No air rifle, rifle, or bow discharge anywhere allowed in town. Also no desire to shoot the kinda critters that come to a feeder. If I was to hunt it would have activity/stalking involved but I am a paper puncher these days.

I will say I had an issue with the magazine not auto-indexing already though... more testing required to make sure it wasn't something spooky

Congratulations Luna,

You'll never regret purchasing such a fine rifle! She's gorgeous!

Please keep us posted on the magazine auto-indexing issue. I've not experienced any problems with mine. Make certain your all of pellets are pushed in and properly seated inside the magazine.

Yes true, I also have the Revere and I found that out right away, make sure that the skirt of the pellet is inside the top edge of the magazine and not just sitting on top or it won;t index properly.
