I bought a knob from Steve and put it in yesterday. Yesterday was the first time I had access to a chrony. I first chronied the cricket with the plastic knob it comes with. I shot 12 rounds and all were 991 to 993 feet per second, which was quiet a shock since I had no idea it was shooting that hard. I was shooting JSB exact kings by the way. I removed the stock, unscrewed the plastic knob and then inserted the Aluminium knob I got from Steve, turned it in about half way and shot over the chrony for about 960 fps. I turned the knob counter clock wise until I thought I only had 2 or 3 threads left, this was just a guess on my part, shot over the chrony and got 910 fps. screwed in about 1 turn shot over the chrony and got 930 fps. this is where I left it. I had noticed that with the stock screw tight I could not adjust the knob, and I liked it that way, i knew that the knob would not accidently be turned from where I had set it.

Good to know! I´m waiting for the reply from him.
Steve will send you the knob without any problem.
O.K. I´ll see if i get an answer from Top Gun Arizona. I´ll get one from there then.
I have knob from him but I do not use it. I must do inner bulding-in on lathe.
See picture 2 there is deep/hloubka 4mm – but knob from steve is not present.

Thank you – VERY MUCH !!!!!
If you ordered the FAC version, the hammer spring pre-installed in the gun is not rated for 12 FPE. It is just a weak, crudely-cut spring put in there to give the impression that it is a low-powered rifle to pass inspection, I assume. If it is indeed a spring rated for European power levels, the regulator needs to be adjusted to get to those power levels. Welcome to the Cricket fam!
Knob from steve has not inner space for spring!! You can not set lower speed as 260mps due to knob holds only with only 1 thread.

Welcome in the club !!! 😀
May I ask how much they charged for shipping etc. ????
I may be interested in buying another one, – but don’t really know where to go these days. It seems a bit strange to have an European made rifle re-exported from the US to Norway, but if that’s what it takes………. 😉
Cheers
Trygve in Oslo 😀
