Hi everyone
I´m from Spain and I great fan to this forum.I read and learn so much to the post to Airforce airguns.
One question.

Is a poor info,but I believe see a copy of a talon o condor.
Anyone have more information?

Maybe is the same model,and one only print your name,Snowpeak S120 and this HDAF900.
in the latest iwa finally theirs not presented the model,only in catalog.If no most retailers or distribuitors are interested ,theirs not begin to work.
In the case on the bullup clone,only samples are distribuited at the present.
Snow peak does not make a condor clone. U must be confused. I have a very good source telling me that they do not make them. Either way they will not make it into the US… Atleast for resale. Airforce is very much on top of protecting there property. Trust me not gonna happen.
U may get the parts in and be able to piece one together but u won’t find someone selling the clones here
Just received my longer extrusion. All other measurements the same as above, the OAL is 31.5″ This is going to make a nice .257!!!!! 😈 :8:
Shaoping SnowPeak factory is not only manufacturer of a Condor Clone,I see this .

I hope so… I want to move along on both of the projects… The Chinese have always been capable (for the most part), it’s the companies that request the cloning of stuff that does the quality control, and sets these products loose on the world. Then the Chinese get a bad rap for it… Not saying China isn’t at fault, but not completely to blame…
Yeah CB, it certainly is an interesting place to be at this time and place within this hobby of ours!
I am sure if ya just keep throwing it out there like you are doing and take the time to find someone you can really clique with, you will get someone with the capabilities that you are seeking to help fulfill that project.
It is amazing how quickly the Chinese are starting to come up in the quality of their products and the overall skills of their working class. Of course their prices are climbing too. Heaven forbid if we should require to produce any of our own consumable products domestically anymore. Nobody manufactures mundane things that we take for granted here. Where do they manufacter something like the everyday household lightbulb? Of course our environment and pollution is the best it has been in years!
They offer one that is 75mm (29″?) Free shipping and it was $102 for the short ones. I got lucky a few days later they were offering them at $82, but for the extra length they charge more. Still came out to $101 w/free shipping. Im going to try the regulated valve they have for sale on my mini .30 project. is Now I just need to figure out who’s going to machine ot for me…
Ya gonna try out any other Chinese parts? I wonder about some of those aftermarket breeches and hammers I have seen advertised. Pretty shrewd of someone to offer these extrusions for sale.
I had also seemed to recall that the manufacturer of these extrusions actually makes similiar extrusions as window frames and other modular building components ….. Hmmmm????
Looks like you are on to a really cool new project Caboose!
:4:
I’ve bought Chinese Stealth/Condor parts to see what the quality is like you can’t fault them
:8: Wow! Thats pretty cool ! Excellent turn around time from China! Was that free shipping too? I know everyone is gonna ask ,,,, so excuse me for being the forward one and let me inquire,,,,, so, uh -yeah, uhmmmm, so how much???? 😳

Well, I got a pleasant surprise in the mail today, in the form of a DHL delivery, express from friggin China!!! Here are the specs, please keep in mind, I only have shitty Harbor Freight digital calipers! I also ordered these last week, both came in. Both were ordered a day apart from each other…
1″ I.D.
1.29″-1.30″ O.D.
.121″ WALL
.451″ Width of Scope and Trigger Rails
2.92″ OAH
21.625″ OAL
Pictures, sorry- crappy phone:
There looks to be tool marks on the very ends, but the Ano on the outside looks even, except in the deep grooves. It’s still covered, but looks a little thin. The inner wall looks really shiny and polished, but you can see lines where they polished it… I can’t feel anything when I rub my fingers in there. Feels really smooth. Overall I’m satisfied with the pieces. I’m selling one to tagdagger, and keeping the other for my .30 talon project. I’ve got a third coming in, but this one is 29.5″ long… That one is for my .257!!! Now, If I could just find someone to machine it…. :fishing:
This is all I’ve been able to find… 👿
I already have two of those frames coming in… ill get what I have to you… I think the drawings suck.
Do you have a drawing for the trigger holes?
How long is a condor frame? This profile is 21″ long
it’s going to be a while until they come in, would you be up for that? How much would something like that cost? I mean, to do the trigger parts holes, breech opening on one side, machine for the spinloc tank, and the velocity adjuster? The other stuff can come later… not worried about it.

well hopefully AF will take this Chinese company’s example and start selling extrusions… I’m tired of buying Chinese. But if they’re the only one’s selling, I guess I have no choice, do I? Man the guys at AF are fucking slow….
