  • I popped into BAR and put poor Lloyd straight on the spot, asking him what's new.
    Knowing my preferences he showed-off two awesome compact sidelever PCP Air Rifles, the AirMaks Caiman and the Kral Puncher Empire XS. Then he showed me/us something different: The Venator, a very solidly-built mag-fed semi-auto AEG (Airgun, electric/battery-powered) that fires steel BBs for lotsa tactical plinking fun.
    Thanks again Lloyd and Sean for your time, see you again soon.

    I remember the good old days of beautifully crafted traditional air rifles. It's really strange revisiting this hobby after a 30 year absence to find so many of these odd looking, space age designs occupying the racks of gun shops.
    John Darling (HW80 - then much later - the Theoben Rapid 7) & Arthur Shepard (Theoben Sirrocco) - the golden era. I too had the HW80, HW35 and Webley Omega, to name a few, during my decade with Airguns.
    It's a different world now. But interesting to see how the market has evolved.
    Really nice video. Cheers 👍

    Could you possibly consider filling the last pellet port in the Krait’s magazine with a stopper, to have an identifiable, positive “stop”, albeit at a cost of one shot out of the 18 shot magazine? If the mag didn’t let the plunger/pellet seater seat, you’d soon get the idea that it’s time to reload; either this, or just buy a second magazine and change over after you’ve lost count, hopefully before 19 shots are fired!

    • @RussDouglas222
      @RussDouglas222  10 месяцев назад

      I suggested a blanked chamber to AirMaks, but they're cautious of the pellet probe being accidentally damaged if pushed against the blanked chamber.
      From CARM magazines I do have an aftermarket 3D-printed alternative magazine with a blanked last chamber (lower capacity), plus a similarly 3D-printed single-shot loader (e.g., for HFT)...

      So you'd like an electronic rifle action that has a live shot count(down), that's displayed onscreen within a digital scope? TBH I can't see that ever happening, as I can only think of a few high-end marques (e.g. Daystate) that could do that, and they're not closely aligned with any digital (day & night) scope manufacturers (that I know-of). 🤔🤷🏻‍♂️

      It's a simple shape for sure, but so's the Daystate Pulsar, which is essentially a plank with a sticky-out handle.
      I love that the Caiman feels purposeful and I can loop a belt through the rear stock hole as a simple sling, but I definitely prefer the compact look of the Caiman over the Caiman X.

    You dealers and gun shop owners have to stop saying that this gun fires “steel ball bearings” IT DOESN’T
    IT FIRES BB’s. BB is a recognised shot size like buck shot and bird shot. Saying that the BB’s❤ a ball bearing is at the very least misleading. If you get an impressionable youngster thinking that his new toy will shoot ball bearings he’s going to try it isn’t he. So stop saying “ bbs” are ball bearings when they patently are NOT.

    • @RussDouglas222
      @RussDouglas222  Год назад

      ...except (technically) what does "BB" stand-for? 🤔 I don't remember anyone calling them anything other than BBs, but the far more important thing is to remember they have a significant ricochet danger, which all users have to be aware-of and take steps to avoid.
      Othewise they're being dangerous or at least irresponsible, and irresponsible people shouldn't have access to guns anway. 🤷🏻‍♂️

      @@RussDouglas222 “BB” was originally designated to a size of lead shot measuring .180’ in diameter. Used in early Airguns by Benjamin Etc so when they wanted to import their guns to England the size was reduced to .177. There are lead substitutes for bbs now so ricochets aren’t so much of a problem. As for irresponsible gun users there is no solution apart from a complete ban so there will always be one.
