What should i do?

I've read a ton of great reviews on the TAIPAN VETERAN. It's a Bullpup and comes in three barrel lengths. I've never shot one, but the forums are full of satisfied users...

Revin,
Many of us began with a sub $500 "starter" PCP, then moved up to more refined, better quality (higher priced) models and never looked back. I think it might be hard to be impressed with less expensive guns, after owning a higher priced one. That being said, I'd recommend the Wildcat MK3, the Taipan Veteran or the AGT Uragan. I own all three, as well as an M3 Bronze .25 Sniper, and wouldn't part with any. Don't know Condor but sell it if you need the funds, you don't seem that connected to it. WM

I sold all my other "entry level" guns after getting my Royale 500 & Boss & I've never looked back or regretted it. None of them could hold a candle to the better quality guns so why hang on to them? Not looking to impress anyone with the amount of guns I own.

There's always room in the closet or safe for another rifle. I've run across some very nice used guns in the classifieds. If you are patient, you may find just what may spark your interest. If I may suggest:
FX Crown
Cricket
Daystate Revere or Wolverine
RAW
or??

Sell it if you don't use it or if you feel obliged to use it. That's my gauge. If it sits, it gets sold.

What is it about the Condor that makes up the hate part of the love/hate relationship?

For me, when I am trying to tune my regulated gun for a new projectile and begin to get annoyed, I get out my AF TalonP and relieve some stress by shooting quarter sized groups on my 85 yard targets. It just always does what it was built to do.
Once I feel better I can go back to my tuning and things usually start to go smoother.

There is just something to be said about simple guns. But maybe that's just me.

You should think;then get a Brocock.

I like the condor for how it shoots, it's simple, and fairly light weight. Don't like that it's single shot and i have to carry a pocket or tin of pellets with although 1 shot at a time is enough, overall length, POI shift with pressure change.

I actually prefer single shot. In fact, the first thing I always buy for a new gun is a single shot loader.
As for POI change. I can get 7 to 10 consistant shots with my Talon P

I went medium to top of the line affordable, $1100-1700. And tried to make them work, mostly satisfied . Can’t deal with the “rough” aspect of budget guns. Doesn’t mean they don’t work! Just not my cup of tea.

Anyone that owes an AirForce rifle should have one of these ;



I have one on each of my REXs, can easily hold up to .357 cal probably even .45

There are many brands, styles and operating systems available because we all want or need something different in our air guns.
Figure out what you like and dislike about what you have then go find or attempt to find the gun that most closely matches your wants.
What each of us likes may or may not make sense. Myself in your shoes I would buy another M3 because you seem happy with it. I bounce between my M3, 22 and Mav 25 compact as to which I prefer and there are people here who wouldn’t own either and they have their good reason for it.

Love the looks of the

talon p, how loud are they?, if I ad a moderator then the length would be getting close to that of my Condor SS

Pretty loud.
Not loud enough that I feel that I need ear protection, but loud enough that I do use a moderator when shooting in my back yard so as not to get the gun hating neighbors in a tissy.
I don't really feel that it is necessarily long with the mod attached.




A bit longer after I added a Mad Dog stock and larger air bottle.

If you want to pretty much shoot crosman HP sell the air force and buy an avenger. Their barrels generally love the crosman 14 gr variants. That gun would give great versatility to shoot other ammo too if you wanted too.
