Top is M4 700mm no Mod
Middle is M4 600mm with mod
Bottom is a pieced together Kral parts gun with mod.

We all know what the FX does but surprisingly that .25 cal 14" barrel 180cc 3000psi tube little Kral does 20 shots a fill at 38fpe with an ES of 22fps using 25.4JSB or 10 shots at just under 50fpe with the 25.4JSB and an ES of 15fps and no regulator.

The Kral is my go to Squirrel gun for sure.

Another fun compact. 18" barrel in .30, 3000psi bottle and 1900psi reg. Still 10 shots at over 800fps. A little more tweaking and a small 4500psi bottle should get me 2-3 mags at almost full power in a small package.

Can you provide some detail on the Krale parts gun? Is it a custom stock on a puncher?

NP-03 with a mega trigger in a mega stock. Modified puncher breaker shroud with a modified suppressor adapter. Ported with custom valve internals. Modified hammer with heavier spring but zero preload to prevent hammer bounce. And the kral Biathalon cocking Lever. Custom larger diameter power adjuster to accommodate the larger ports.

I make the power adjuster from an 8mm bolt and it can still function. Small reamers in stages to enlarge the hole where the factory adjuster was.

I like it! Very compact looking.

I have been experementing with/exploring/hunting with airguns from all over the planet for 35 years. I must confess that "Mega" and "NP-03" are not familiar and do not show up using the search function on Krale's web page.

The Mega stock is reminicent of a Magpul hunter stock that i bedded a custom 308 700 action to. I love that firearm. It would be nice to have an airgun that had it's ergonomics.

Nicee! Got a .30 "compact" myself! 20" barrel, 500cc 4500psi bottle, reg set to 3100psi, with hammer 3/4 of the way it outs out 92fpe with 50gr VK slugs 910fps and 99fpe with 78gr going 756fps. It's currently set to shoot 44.8gr at 910fps and gets 3 mags from 4500psi to 3800psi

@thammer I am new here so hopefully this is okay to ask. I am looking for my first PCP air gun and have really fallen in love with the np02 but of course I cannot find one at any dealer. might you have one you have built and are willing to sell? Once I have permission to post in the classifieds I was thinking of an in search of post. but thought I would ask here as it appears you know how to build the kral punchers pretty well. thanks

I haven't seen the NP-02 in a while. They weren't imported to the US that I'm aware of. I think any US ones came from Krale or Canada Shooting supply. Pyramyd was the importer for the US and can't remember them having any. The rear bottle guns prevent hammer spring adjustment without degass and removing the rear block. I do like the big air capacity and still compact but I would rather fill more often than to not have the adjustment I wanted on the fly.
