I am curious about what new guns will be available in 2023. We have seen this year that the two biggest releases for 2022 is the Ghost and just the very recent Panthera. Does anyone have any news or "leaks" about new possible guns for 2023?
New guns for 2023
- Thread starter Tonyo155
- Start date
I am anxiously awaiting the gun that American Air Arms (?) brought to the Extreme Benchrest match in AZ in October. I have not seen any photos or information about it other than it was sporting a Lilja barrel (I think someone said it doesn't have a shroud but my memory is fading fast.). I am unaware of any barrel maker that makes a better barrel than Lilja or Krieger (a select few are probably equal to those two).
By chance did anyone here on AGN get to see or shoot it? Please correct me if I got the maker wrong.

I have no clue. I see two wood stocked models on their website, but those are not the gun in question. Was that wood stocked EVOL the prototype gun with a Lilja barrel on it that they were showing at EBR? I spoke with someone at AAA (99 & 44/100ths sure it was them....) on the phone recently about it and they were pretty excited about how well it was shooting with a wide range of ammo. A release date was not given. A google site search shows that the word "Lilja" is not found anywhere on their website. Sorry I can't remember more about it other than I wanted one right now!

The wooden stock evol is the paradigm, and is currently available with its Corcoran custom stock. The rifle in question is not currently out to my knowledge.

Don't forget about the $5,000 50lb (looking) Skout Epoch:

I'm not getting one anytime soon (or ever) but am curious to see what the real world reviews will tell us.

I was shooting this AAA Evol .223 out to 300 yards no problem.

Airguns, Tensioned Barrels and Slugs
Spent the day over at American Air Arms facility with Tom Costan. I asked him to show some history of the tensioned barrel systems as well as how they apply to Airguns. It was a great time spent and hope some might learn a few things from this video documentation.

There is also the semi automatic Kalibergun springbok. https://kalibrgun.com/weapons/springbok-w-semi-auto-cal-55-22/
Now with externally accessible REG adjustment, so in my perspective more interesting, i am keeping my eye on it when it get to the .177 caliber.
The Epoch i also find instresting, but with that price tag i will never be able to go there, even if it shot like a star wars blaster in the hands of anybody but a storm trooper.

The regulated ‘Shadow’ from Kral looks pretty interesting. I think it’s supposed to retail for around $700?

That thing looks horrendous. Who still uses aluminum bottles anymore??? Heavier and lower fill pressures compared to CF. What a great way to add 1lb+ at the front of your rifle without trying!

I did but I didn't write them down because it was a prototype and still has changes being made. I only write down and record what I know the consumer will see. It shot amazingly, however. Can't wait to see the finished product!
