The Karma Red Panda: A New Era in Airgun Precision

Thank you everyone for your questions and support for our launch of the new 2025 Karma Red Panda today. We got quite a few questions about how the dual bottle plenum and fill source is designed under the front rail so we also put together this highlight real where you can see the design a bit better. Also notice when you want to run it in a PRS-style configuration, you can just remove the second bottle in the rear. We have found by removing that second rear fill source bottle that the gun is balanced perfectly without the need to add front MLOK rail weights. Check it out:

For those of us who already have the 2024 model will we be able to get slug barrels for them in the near future?

Very interesting offering, but it would be nice to see some regular folks using the new barrel and their actual groups. PJ's video is great, but the pictures down the barrel make it seem like there is a lot of lead fouling. I wonder if someone could post a borescope down the new barrel?

You can't unsee it once you see it (lead fouling). The pic of my Lother Walther barrel is why I got away from petroleum-based cleaners and lube. These pics were taken after I cleaned and brushed and brushed, and then I pulled patches, and they were clean, no lead fragments perfectly clean. Then I borescoped it and this caused me to buy another barrel because I didn't think it would ever come clean. This pic is part of a video. I would love to get a chance to shoot different types of lead through the Karma and see how the other kind of rifling reacts to going from soft JSB lead to harder Crossman Premier lead for example.

HbN .5 Micron makes barrel maintenance a breeze, in my opinion. With a few facts(videos to back it up), switching back and forth no longer causes GOD AWFUL FOULING!!! I Do not want to hijack this post. I am just trying to inform the masses that all barrels can foul PERIOD.

Maybe e I missed something but is there a slug and pellet barrel? Or are they the same. IF same barrel the out of box tune is different?
I see when trying to order you select caliber and slug or pellet. Just trying to figure out what the physical difference is between the slug and pellet selection.

Tip: Watch the video from PJ at the beginning of the thread. He goes through all this.
He says they are the same (didn’t see a reason to make separate barrels at this time based on their testing) and they set the tune differently including opening/bypassing the first reg with the slug tune.

Thank you for the question on that point! We are adding some clarification text on that drop-down option. That configuration option is for us to tune the airgun to your specification of caliber and slugs or pellets before we ship it to you. All the other physical equipment from the barrel to the type of probe we use and everything else is the same.

The FatBoy doesn’t have an M18x1 option, but you could use a Ronin endcap. In .22 you might want the Extender, in .25 definitely will want the extender. If you want to go with the RP in .30 cal you’d be better off with the Ronin or Emperor.

I just got done watch the series. Killer videos! I have two questions.
I have a hand disability. What is the potential lowest trigger weight.
Then, I've been eyeing the 30 cal pellet. But, I saw it only gets 26 shots a fill, is that worst case scenario?

PJs video says that this estimate is only until it gets to the first reg, so by far worst case because you are probably going to shoot until you get to the second reg.
He discusses the trigger weight in the video as well, and I think he said trigger weight is not adjustable…
