Q:

Just ordered a Short one

From Tony, it should arrive in 2 weeks or so after he test shoots it.

I can’t wait, in the mean time what to crown the little one with, a Bug buster ?

My Donny Fatboy mini review.

If you are interested in getting one you can contact Donny here on TAG or email him directly donnydu@gmail.com

Received it in perfect condition, I like the Matte l@@k the best ! :suprisedn:

The inners of the fat one is just as neat ! :8:

I received my Mutant LDC adaptor with a black Delrin tread protector tip cap from John Hagan if you are interested in getting one he can be reached at hagantool@aol.com, he responses very quickly like Donny ! :fishinghole:

John seemed to have used an anti seizing compound of a sorts or Moly lube on the treads is always a good ideal when dealing with two different metals.

I notice that the OEM metal dowel pins don’t fit into the Hagan LDC adaptor, it has a different size hole about a 1/8″ drill bit will work no big deal namely to remove only hand tighten to install.

I wrapped my OEM shroud to match the Donny Fatboy LDC with a clear Matte finish and I’m awaiting to receive a vinyl carbon fiber wrap that I order on Amazon, but I don’t think I can out do that Cricket he is a master when it comes to CF wraps !

How sweet it is :mrgreen: when the two teams come together perfectly, look guys no hands this time !!!

If you don’t like the added length of a 5/8″ to the OAL of the Mutant you can install Johns LDC adaptor on backwards. :winkn:

Shooting with sound check next time ……. .. ……… ……. .. peew peew …. … ..

Greg,
It was my typo. 😳
I meant 765-770 fps for Petr’s barrel. His barrel has a very tight choke.

It’s a barrelorama! 😯 I am feeling awfully lucky on my Short Mutant.

I think u waited to the right time moment into getting one Coda, the Shorty rocks !!

Greg,
For the barrel sent by Petr, I got 865-870 fps with JSB 18.1, without changing HST the factory CZ barrel (from Randy) goes up to 790-795 fps.
I am getting a 2nd Gen Listone barrel from Dman…we will see.

Gee 75 fps lost, was the Petr barrel Choke less ?

Thanks Endo,

I’m also glad to hear that you got one also, cool beans Sir !

With the hammer spring adjuster at the same setting with a direct barrel swap I had about a 10 fps increase with the CZ barrel.
The TP is larger in area then with the Listone which is .18″ round compared to the CZ .2″ x .183″ oval.

I believe they’re trying to make up for the velocity lost with a choke barrel with such a large TP.

With peck hammer spring setting the Listone the maximum velocity with JSB 18g = 805 fps. 16g = 845 fps.
Now with the new CZ max velocity with JSB 18g = 815 fps, 16g 850 fps.

I’m just waiting for sunrise to test shoot, but don’t think it will out shoot the Listone barrel, it’s that good.

~ Greg

Congrats Greg. My measurements are similar/identical to yours.

Regards,
Endo

Just received my CZ barrel from TAG Tony today :8: , it looks great but haven’t test shoot yet maybe tomorrow.

Here are the 3 barrels from top to bottom, CZ, Listone and the German/Korean barrel.

CZ barrel TP specs, quite large for a 22 cal.

73 omg. Kug? 🙂

I ride adventure bikes with a guy who is 76 in the Ozarks (I am 58). He is one tough old bird. Retired from the Navy.

Dear KUG,

Never stare a toad in the eye! And…when you are in doubt about anything in life…stop what you are doing and ask yourself “Can you tell how fat a chicken is by looking only at it’s head???” Reflect on these matters when life deals you a bad hand and you will emerge the better man!

There you have it. The sum total of 73 years of life experience.

Kindly Ol’ Uncle Hoot:

PS: No need for thanks.

Right!!!

What STD said…let Dman do a complete exam, and administer an enema on this sucker, and see what is going on in there! It could have worms, or even a dead rat gumming up the works! Just saying…..been know to happen.
