I was just over on GTA & saw someone has received their Pinty Bullpup. It's also called the QM-23. I included a video of it's disassembly. There are more videos on YT. I like that it has the same trigger set up as my P-15. Very easy to adjust. It also shows that it is regulated. For the price I think i'll give one a try.

I thought it looked almost exactly like the P15, Stoeger Bullshark models. I just assumed it was unregulated hence the lower price. Good to hear.
Thanks for the reminder. It came to $259.00 shipped to NY. It got me wondering what I paid for my P-15 from MROD air back in 2017. Pulled out the receipt & it was $599.00. How the prices change? I remember Mike was the first to bring the Huben rifles in the country.

Mine was pretty much the same from Krale back then.
The side lever seems a big upgrade.
I know my P15 inside out and I have fought many fights with it. There's potential but You have to do the work.
I would buy one with side lever if there was one in .177

It looks like a P15 but the sidelever is in the middle, not at the rear.
Is this what you meant?

WILL74, I also had to fight with my P15 back then. After I recrowned the barrel & added a Huma reg the clouds broke up & the sun shined in! It has now been my tree rat getter for years. I probably should have given the factory reg more time to break in but being new to PCP's I just thought it was a defective reg? I also bought a .177 Bullshark last spring that is very similar & made by Snowpeak & shoots lights out.

I cannot find anything on the QM-23 bullpup on the Snowpeak website.
Are these PCPs made by Snowpeak or are they clones made by another manufacturer?

Defensor, they do appear to be modified from the original Snowpeak. Some or all of the Snowpeak also being modified clones.

Looks like a P35 with side plates on the action and a wood stock. SPA sells most of their guns through others and this appears to be another example. If so, that's a great deal since it's about half the price of a P35.

These are the manufacturer specs.
Defensor QM-23

www.snowpeaksports.com
Many of the specs between QM-23 and P35 match:
-shape of the stock
Stock shape is the same, but P35 is synthetic and QM-23 is wood.
-overall length
around 27"-28", 68-70cm
-barrel length
450mm for both
-air cylinder
265cc for P35
260cc for QM-23
I beleive they are actually the same capacity.
-trigger
same trigger for both
Magazines look different.
