Airforce Air Force Airguns the best for me

[PasadenaMike]

My buddy is looking at one of the SS models and he is confused which one comes with the ring lock valve. I've never owned one so I don't know I told him I would ask. From what I see online it looks like the Talon SS does not have it but the escape or Condor does. He's wanting a 22 or 25 for hunting but he's wanting the bigger tank for more shots but he don't want a real long gun since it will be in his truck. He will be using it for squirrels,rabbits,coons mostly

Thanks
Jon

I told him to get the talon p and just get a bigger bottle

How much weight do the stocks add?

for the Raptor long stock, under 2 lbs

So this got me curious, so I just weighed mine. fully dressed as shown in the image below.

MadDog stock, Larger bottle, Scope, Light, moderator, and bipod. 8.26 lbs. So yeah, a bit heavier than as it came out of the box, but still quite manageble for me. Besides that, it is more comfortable to hold and much easier to hold steady. As I said earlier, the stock really transformed the gun.

Glad to hear that you are happy with your MAD DOG stock. I have one on order, Raptor long, which do you have?

I’m pretty sure sure it called the Bulldog Ambi stock, don’t quote me on that. Doug is a super nice guy and is a good guy to deal with.

 

[Struckat]

Yes Bulldog Ambi. 1.8 lbs.

The gun is so light and handy. Even with the giant can, heavy scope and bigger bottle, the weight is by the trigger. It’s wonderful for off hand.

That's no lie. Doug talked with me for quite a while on the phone to make sure I got exactly what I wanted.

I've liked the looks of the Maddog stocks for a while, but to me... it felt like it would take away from the 'feel' of the gun. Until I acquired a .257 decked out with a Maddog stock and wow. It transforms the gun completely. I've contemplated getting another one, but havent yet. With my latest, a TalonP, I am considering it, but right now happy with the small bottle on it. I might get frisky one day and change out the bottle and if I do, I'll pick up a Maddog stock.

 

[Struckat]

My thought is to pick up an escape ul in 22 and put that in the stock with the bigger bottle, then leave the P as the 15 fpe gun. Lots of shots even on that little bottle.

That’s a significant amount of weight added for woods walking

Thats nothing. I carry more mud on my boots,lol

Not knocking it at all but a quick glance of the gun first thought was a barra 250z ..lol

That’s scary. I wonder if he ever uses walnut, hmmmm.

Scary?

When I ordered mine, I inquired about getting it unfinished, because I was tired of black, He responded and recomended against it because of the wood he uses, but say I could get it in a different color and that he could also make it with a different wood. So yes, I guess he does, but it would be a lot heavier. Probably a lot more expensive too.
I just went for the different color.

Yeah, It kind of made me laugh too.
I am a horse show photographer and the camera I carry for 8 to 12 hour days weighs more than my rigged out TalonP.

Never noticed, but yes, it kind of does.
