A big problem i see for us with Ted doing a condor Review is that as we all know, it takes a bit of tinkering to make them shoot to their Great Potential. Hell, until recently, Ted wouldn’t even bother cleaning a barrel before testing a new gun. I think it would give the Condors a Huge Black Eye!

Think abut it. they came shootiing so hot from the factory that it is hard to get a decent group at anything like decent range. It would look like a damed Shot Gun at longe range! 😯 😳

That is the same way with Evanix guns. They came shooting hot and need some attention to get them shooting lighter pellets.

Question is would anyone on this forum go out and buy a gun and spend the time to get to know it and make a video of it like Ted does. Probably not. Nobody is stopping anyone to start their own channel and do their own review on whatever gun they like. It takes a lot of time to do this. I can’t even muster an in depth review on my accuracy of my gun. Shoot and take a picture and that’s it. No measurement nothing maybe put a dime for reference. So the ultimate challenge is for someone who has an Condor to go and do a full review like Ted does then we will see. Cheers

Yeah but that’s what he dose and we all trust his reviews and his been doing it forever so that’s why his name has been brought up…
However , I do look forward to seeing PANDEMIC’S review. (mods or no mods) :biggrinn:

once i get some time off this summer i will do an in length review on my gun BUT i have mods done to my gun including stock, hammer, tophat but all of the mods i did are easy and i have made videos on all of them showing how to install/do the mods. so yeah that video is to come on a 24″ .25 condor and a Condor 18″ .22 with ldc so (condor SS)

Funny you bought this up, I tried to PM him last year to see if he had any plans on review the Condor .25 at some point and I never got a reply.

While i can’t speak for TED IN MADISON ( i swear, i’m not screaming…..lol), i’m sure at some point he will get around to shooting a Condor. There are plenty of other guns he has not tested on video.

He is at the BEGINNING of his “THING” with videos and youtube and has many more years to go. The problem with videos and airguns is that there is SO MUCH TO DO and so many things to shoot and so many adventures to have. Look at me, i started with small bore and then went to big bore airguns for a quick second and now my THING is long range MEDIUM bore airguns. I still have travelling to hunt with airguns and meeting industry people and blah blah blah to video tape. So there is a lot to be done and its the same for Ted. Im sure it will get done at some point

A friend showed me Ted’s vids on youtube a while back and it really sparked our interest in PCP airguns. Especially his “bird watching, airgun style” videos. Funny stuff. I had wondered why
he never mentions AirForce airguns at all. Not even to bash them After watching his vids, I never pined after an Edgun or a FX. Shit, my buddy is ordering a Maurader mainly because of the 100 yd. test review Ted did some time back with the .25
I bet Crossman, Edgun and FX love him! I would love to see him wring out a Condor on his vids, but I’m not the type that’s gonna contact him and request it. I’m sure there are lots of good video’s of people testing and shooting AF guns, but seems people wanna see what Ted can do with one.

Lately I’d rather be watching Mrnewbies night hunting vids, and/or Tofazfou’s big bore vid’s.

My statement is not meant to knock Ted at all, I think he is pretty cool. But you need to understand that everything presented to you on the internet has a certain filter, or motivation behind it. The yellow forum has a rather obvious filter. Ted is got into this because he loved airguns, but when you get popular his blog & youtube channel effectively became advertisement. I work for a big ad company. We have people who look for successful bloggers and pay them to review products based on the people who follow them. I am guessing Ted’s reviews are influenced in the same way. And I don’t blame him a bit, if someone came to me and dropped a $2500 gun in my lap and said review it please, I would. I would probably forget about my marauder and condor for a good while too. We are all just boys with new toys.

Yeah,Stop already! My ears are ringing!!! :rofl:

Are you aware there are dozens of videos on YouTube about the Airforce guns?

And do not type in all caps. It is considered shouting and rude on forums

I have a youtube channel where all my vids are made using a .22 Condor, sometime ago I put a link to my channel on his FB page to help promote it and get some advice from him-i didn’t get any response.
