This JTS Airacuda max .22 was one of the early demo guns from @ 1 1/2+ years ago. i had used it as a Modification and Learning platform shared on GTA as well the Airacuda facebook page. It has been sitting for well over 6 months .. so Cut / Chop / Sand it into a >20 fpe extreme Field target pistol. had nothing into it so why not
Started with removal of the plenum / regulator section, Manufacturing an IN-TUBE holder for the OEM Reg having @ 1/2 the plenum volume as previous. This allowed using the original air tube that will create a FT Pistol right at the max 25" OAL. ( Could not do it with OEM plenum in place )
Cut the barrel to 15" and re-crowned ( No shroud being Barrel max length is 15" )
Chopped the stocks butt off & sanded into shape. cut in a Thumb Up groove for use when off hand. Sliced off the fore stock depth to be at the max 3" from bore C/L.
Stained the wood scars and made a plug for the now omitted front gauge. Rear gauge just shows plenum pressure which is fine, rifle still fills to 220 bar.
It is Legal for PFT in AAFTA or Extreme .. Just legal being at the legal size limits in all measured dimensions.
Runs at 19.8 fpe with a SNAP shot cycle not being overly loud shockingly
Anywho ... here it is
