Q:

New Condor owner from Toronto, Canada….

Well soon to be owner as I just put in my order this morning. Free shipping till the end of March was what pushed me to buy it now.

Yes after a year of debating on a Condor and a 10 year hiatus from my airguns I’m back and I just blew my income tax return even before I filed my taxes. Cocky aren’t I, no pun intended.

So here’s what I ordered in one shot, again no pun intended:

– Condor .22 with clamp assem. only
– 1 extra Hi-Flo tank
– Co2 adaptor
– Airforce Hand Pump for topping up after a few shots to keep the tank psi consistant when at the rifle range
– x3 Beeman Kodiac extra heavy .22 pellets
– swivel stud clamp for my harris bipod

My next order come summer will be a 12″ .22cal barrel and a SS end cap.

If all goes smoothly I should get my order by Thursday of next week, Friday if I missed the postal worker and have to pick it up at the post office. This will just be in time as we are heading over to the in-laws next weekend and they live out in farm country on an acre of land with trees all around.

Cheers to you all and to a fantastic forum.

When it generates what is consider lethal energy which is a combination of ft lbs and velocity as PCP’s are not toys and in reality firearms when compared to rimfire energies.

Randy

so in the US, when exactly does a pellet gun become a firearm? I never got that

… and we live in igloos 🙄 Your funny.

As long as we have a a firearms license we can own a full power airgun. If no license then yes we are limited to under 500fps.

😯 igloos…. shit I thought you were in canada not alaska 😛 come on now admit it, you have a dirt floor, six foot log walls, and a moss roof don’t ya 😉

Thanks for the license info though, I never waas clear on that

Hey Roc where do you shoot? I’m here in Windsor, I can get my fac in June but the county I live in doesn’t allow any shooting in it, it’s fucking stupid so I have to drive like 1 hour away just to hunt. I might have to ask all the farmers if it’s alright too…I gotta move up north when im older i guess.

I have my small game license so I have a place I goto to hunt ground hogs and crows and anythng else I’m allowed to hunt in accordance to the Ontario Hunting Regulations. I also belong to a gun club that has a 25/50/100/200 and 300 meter rifle range. My in-laws live in 30 minutes North of Kingston on a one acre land with farmland surrounding their property. 8)

Like I mentioned earlier I’m coming out of a 10 year hiatus so I pumped, no pun intended, on getting back into the sport/hobby.

Man The ROC, I can’t wait until you fire that first shot….If you have never heard a Condor before you are going to be impressed and maybe a little surprised… Do not fire that first shot in the house. Well unless you’re alone and have ear plugs…..Makes me want to buy another one….

I’m well aware of what’s to come… that’s one reason for getting the co2 adaptor as well going to order myself a 12″ barrel and a ss muzzle cap in the summer.

do the canadian condors come with a high flow tank I wonder, I was under the that all air rifles up there are limited to 500 fps, or can you get a real one with a fire arms license type thing?

they’re referring to the infamous inconsistency between air force products 😯
btw, you’re going to run short real fast with only 3 tins 😈

That’s just for starters, I have a whole case of Beeman Sliver Arrows and Eley Wasps in .22 that I’ve been using for my R1. But I need to see what my Condor does than may look into getting some EUN JIN.

I just bought an extra tank for my Talon, I was looking at it thinking, I wonder if it will work the same with the same tophat setting… 😕

Not unless your VERY lucky.

Oh boy and crap! 😀

Hey Syn. don’t let me discourage you, you may indeed get lucky. I hope you do. Let me know what happens.

With the way the valve works I can see it being a tough bit to make them operate the same from one to another… 😉

I’m hoping I can get mine equalized so I don’t have to use a different targeting technique per bottle…

I have heard that the tanks are as different as the guns…..

The tophat was actually set at 0.070″ and not 0.1″ like the whole rifle from the factory…

Makes me wonder if the factory isn’t making the guns correctly and having to set an extreme gap at the tophat to close the gap at the breach…
