Hello all, I am a custom PCP builder located in Hawaii, I have some pieces in inventory I would like to move and a friend told me to try this forum. Please see my recent post in the 'for sale' forum.
Happy shooting and be safe!

Hi - welcome to the CAF!
FYI:
Your 2nd pistol with the stock is rated at over 500 fps making it an R-Pal item which would require a Firearms license here in Canada...
BTW - how do we know that your items are safe to use?
What qualifications do you have and what are your safety factors?

Apparently you are not reading my post carefully enough,
' the prices include postal shipment and DE-TUNING FOR THE CANADIAN MARKET.'
Re; safety factors,
(a) The reservoirs are rated per the standard Barlows' formula for the wall thickness employed, which yields a calculated safety factor of at least 300%
(b) The manuals supplied with the guns clearly state that the maximum allowable 'safe' fill pressure is 3000 psi., and should never be exceeded.
(c) I have built and sold 14 hi-pressure PCP airguns since 2015 and they are all working properly/belong to well-satisfied customers
Re; qualifications, I have 40 years practical experience as a Designer/Machinist, and the offerings are exhaustively tested before being put up for sale. ( a minimum of 100 rounds/indoor and outdoor field testing, multiple reservoir fills, comparative chronograph trials with various load weights/target distances/conditions/temperatures/pressures.

For reference:
Welcome to the forum, very interesting work!
Do they use conventional valves or is there more innovation beyond the unconventional configuration?
How do you sight the off-center configured pistol and does it feel different to shoot?

Thank you for your interest.
Valving is somewhat similar to the FX- Condor, and utilizes a stainless steel hollow stem valve in-line with the boire/between the reservoir and the breech, with a sliding hammer in the barrel shroud working against a top-hat when fired.
The side-by-side pistol is very nicely balanced, ( although a bit heavy ) and is designed to accept a laser-sight, attaching to the weaver rail mounted below the barrel.
