Sold 3/5/2025 pending funds
I'm selling a Taipan Veteran Short / Compact in .25 caliber. This gun is in like new condition and comes with everything in the box. Two magazines, single shot tray, fill probe, metal dowels (to adjust the hammer spring tension and to remove the barrel shroud cap), and various replacement O-rings are included.
Regulator: The gun is tuned to around 42 FPE from the factory.
Barrel: This gun has a CZ unchocked barrel. I have not confirmed for myself if the barrel is indeed unchoked but this information comes directly from an email conversation with Taipan. When I bought this gun last month, Taipan has confirmed to me that all the stock that Talon Tunes had at the time were all definitely CZ unchoked barrels. Again, this is the information that I was given so please take it as it is.
The only thing I've changed so far with the gun is the hammer spring tensioner. I did returned it to stock. I mounted a scope on this rifle and shot 20 rounds on the chronograph.
Reason for sale: I actually have two of these guns. I bought the first one intending to tune it really low for close range pesting. When I received it, I loved the looks and the size so much that in a moment of lapse in judgment, I immediately ordered another one (this gun for sale) intending to keep it at a higher power tune level. However, once the dust has settled, I realize that I'm not really gaining anything by having two of the same gun, especially since the high power level of the Short is the same as the power tune of my Standard Veteran.
Please be aware that even though this gun is practically new, it does have a few minor marks from the factory. Minor marks on the receiver, the air cylinder and the barrel shroud. These are not defects. The barrel shroud and air cylinder have this matte anodizing. As such it does pick up minor marks. I wouldn't call them scratches but they do not rub off with the hands. It's just the nature of this type of anodizing.
You have to understand that Taipan Veterans have this certain "raw" feel to them like they were actually assembled by hands. Parts pickup minor marks as they go through the assembly process. If you're looking for a gun with a PERFECT finish, likely, a Taipan gun is not for you. I've had six Taipan Veterans of various sizes and calibers go through me in the past 5 years and they're all like that. Not one had perfect finish on every part. However, every one of the guns had perfect performance and reliability.
Price is$1125 $1099 shipped to continental USA with PayPal or Venmo. The gun will be packaged well and sent UPS.
