Karma Red Panda, so far didn’t see great groups in YouTube videos!!!

My Red Panda came double boxed with lots of extra foam inside the case and inside the box. It came to me in perfect condition. But with what Centercut has said I will look into changing out those screws for some longer ones.
My only issue with this gun is the backwards safety on mine. Im not sure it is this way on all of them but i emailed Donny FL and they said it is that way. You have to push the safety from left to right to turn the safety off, Right to left to put the safety on. All my other guns I have you push from right to left to turn the safety off. Other than that it is a awesome gun. I only have a few pellets down it so far but accuracy is already looking good.

Three that I know of. I don’t know the actual number.

Apparently two things.
- the case is not only weak, the foam inside isn’t the firm type that will keep the 17 pound gun from moving inside.
- the screws in the photo only have a few threads engagement. Standard engineering practice is fastener diameter x 1.5 for engagement length. I’ve been told it’s considerably less than that.

And like I said above, it’s an easy recall. Longer fasteners (or longer and larger diameter) and a stronger case with more dense foam. Easy day.

All that will be forgotten if the production models do well at RMAC. I think in addition to those that shot the prototypes last year, the RusBear has ditched his ultra modified .22 FX Crown and has shifted to a .30 Pandy. It’s only something I’ve heard third hand, so don’t quote me on that.

Talking about the case, you have to be able to remove the scope every time you try to put the gun in it!
Buy it without the case if you can and put that money into a larger stronger one.

Hypothetical question???
If a person were to win RMAC, with a Panda that has an FX/TJ/ART barrel installed... Who gets the credit for the win?
I am not trying to stir the pot... just curious.

2nd question... Will RusBear be competing in RMAC or is he still being personally blamed for the war in Ukraine?

If someone who wins RMAC with a RP and states that it's a "stock-out of the box" model, I would be a believer. Most likely place my order the next day.
