Figured since I couldn't sell this for even 200 shipped, I would cut it down and make it how it should come from the factory.
The allure of the stormrider is that is compact and light. Problem is, it's still 41" with the factory moderator.
I took off 4.5" of barrel and bought a TKO for a crosman since they're 7/16" barrel and the diana has a 12mm barrel. I just bored the TKO out till it slipped snug over the freshly crowned barrel.
It now sits at 36.5" OAL, and regulated down to 90 psi, it's getting almost 50 mouse fart shots at 10.5 fpe. Still capable of 24 fpe with the shortened barrel, but this will be a low power pester.
Any other stormrider/SPA 900 owners feel free to post up pics here if you'd like!
