Brocock Ghost
- Thread starter SteveG
- Start date
As far as I'm concerned it's a big step in the right direction. I have almost bought a Brocock a few times over the past 2 years. The one thing I didn't understand was the AK grip over an AR grip. It looks like a good and easily adjustable high power airgun with the opportunity to change barrels and tanks.

The front picatinny for the bipod just needs three to four inches of extension. No bag rider to bulk up the gun. I don’t like a long thin picatinny under the bottle. The beauty of the Ghost is that you can make it what “you” want within practical reason.

They make some nice stuff for the delta I’m sure fully compatible . Rear bag rider will be perfect on it saber tactical universal picatinny to picatinny will work nice on it. 2 inch’s of arcs and 4.5 of pic rail

If you look at the bottom of the stock, there's only 2 open slots of picatinny. At least a 3-5 slot would work better to attach a bag rider and be more stable. If one doesn't need it, it can be removed. I'm just thinking out loud to myself. What are they making this gun for? To compete at the top amongst other brands (FX, RAW, etc.)? Given that PRS/NRL is all the rage now at RMAC and EBR. Can't have everything. JMO.

It is a preference. I feel that a mechanical trigger makes it feel more like a firearm and less like a toy. Electronic triggers you might as well just put a button on the thing and push the button when you want to fire. I guess I’m just old.

Does this gun really have a full on balanced valve?
Given they generally respond in a very limited fashion to hst adjustments beyond the binary ‘valve lock’ vs ‘fully open’ at a given reg pressure, it makes me wonder about the usefulness of that hst fine adjuster wheel. Nothing wrong with using reg pressure though- works great in the prophet 2.
Gun looks very promising otherwise, so long as they haven’t wasted that tune-ability with barrels that are one trick ponies.

I had a air wolf years ago loved the electronic trigger. Like that prs stuff for the ghost Should be best both worlds.

Marcos - I'm trying to learn more about the balanced valve. Any suggestions on content you would suggest to learn more about binary valve lock vs fully open? Trying not to take this post down another rabbit hole.

Check out Bob Sterne’s stuff on HAM? That’s as good a primer as any 
Ps I finally watched the Airguns of Michigan video posted above - certainly seems to behave like a balanced valve according to what he’s saying.

Mine came with the regulator set at 160 bar and shooting Redesigns at 987 FPS. There is no mention in the manual that I saw of the maximum settings.

Just watched the introduction video by AOA on the Ghost. Very nice airgun. I definitely would like to buy one. Icing on the cake that the warrant work is provided by AOA also. Should be easy enjoyable ownership.

Looks like a great gun. Magazine capacity seems low. We now are asked to believe in Ghosts.

One trick ponies? Meaning they just shoot pellets? You can simply then switch out the barrel to one for slugs… Non issue.

Strange/goofy comment !
I'm old, and I have two Daystates, AND...like them, with "their" electronic triggers and all !
Even with all of the "great" (sic)...comments in the previous pages, looking forward to see what the Ghost brings.
