Yep...no use in taxing ALL of the o-rings for no reason ! Store uncocked . I also try to store with the cylinder pressure just above the regulator setting (lower than full pressure) vs. full pressure. Again, no use in taxing the o-rings. Mike

Compact. Sorry, I should have mentioned that in my first post. Mike

Comeon...just toss a coin..! Your "in consideration" guns are all quality guns and will serve you well. Grow a pair and just pick one ! What if you go by someone else's decision, and you aren't happy ? JUST PICK ONE......................... Mike

All true. Have bought two from Charlie. Great guy. Mike

Though factory done on my Brocock Sahara, yeah, the color is growing on me too. After going through a "shortening" operation, I repainted the shroud, and Huma M30 muffler, and the cheek rest. Since the picture, I also painted the small piece in front of the cheek rest too. Been wondering about...

If that's freehand, yes, very impressed. If it's bench rest, bipod, tripod, sand bag, etc.,...the gun did all the work. Mike

I left my Epock filled to about 1500psi for two+ days, just to check the overall system...yeah, for leaks. It lost 1000psi, in that 2+ days. As verified with a piece of tape on the gauge face. I refilled, shot a few rounds, down to 1500psi again, let it sit for about two more days, a solid...

So...are you now better off with all of the different recommendations ? I'd assume that you had a couple that you were looking at. Now, you still...have to pick between a BUNCH, rather than a couple ! Still requires a bit of homework, that you were trying to get out of. Mike

An 18" cube (basically), foam archery target. So far, it's lasted roughly 5 years without needing replacement. I shoot indoors. My yard is about 40 x 20 yards. But I have similar restrictions as you (the OP), but with no concrete wall ! The good thing, it's VERY quiet. No pellet sounds...

Nice that they made the grip an "AR" (rifle) so there's probably hundreds of grips designs available. Mike

I'll have to check mine, but...if the breach seal is on the pellet probe, vs. in the barrel...You NEED to watch out how smooth the inner surfaces of the 3D magazines are printed. IF...they look like a thread, (most to), then I'd be REALLY careful about using a 3D magazine. Every time you cock...

VERY...different guns..!! I know little about the Panthera. I own a Krait compact and a Krait Lite compact. Would trade them for...nothing ! Of what I know about the Panthera, I'd pick the Krait (any length), every time. Mike

"Pulled the trigger". That's cute ! Mike

Doesn't seem a "flat" sided grip (NOT handle !) would be very comfortable. To me anyway. Mike

But $2000 or $3000 air rifles is ok to spend ? That's actually not bad for a low production gun. Especially for being having been "fully" machined, vs. plastic or stamped parts. Mike
