I bet if you want a long Veteran rifle you are going to have to put deposit down.
Now that’s kind of what I heard on the 177 shorty,
Dealers do not want to be sitting on there low sailing stock for years,
Do not take my word for it , check with the importers ,,,

Bizill, higher velocity, quieter, easier on the internals when tuning to extremes. There are a few you tube videos showing the long version that look promising when using the heavy JSB’s. Demitri made a post on TAG, which I cannot find, showing the longs velocity details.
I could be wrong, I would like to try one and they are being manufactured! I think.

Fellas, are we seeing the “long” overseas or you guys just wanting them to import them?

Yes, what he said 🙂 .22 caliber
A rifle version for BR or Target shootin, Bullpup is good for hunting but would prefer a rifle version for not hunting. Set it up using the Long version of the Veteran, have the grip right under the cock lever and of course the rail right on the receiver/action
Awhile back I bought my Mutant Shorty 22 from Tony and paid $1520.00 with shipping.
Today u can get the Veteran Shorty 22 for $1,249.95 + shipping about $50 = $1300.00
With all the added improvements that’s a price drop of – $220.00 :8:
But if the price does go up it with be worth it knowing it’s not based on greed …………. unlike other AG brands (F_) that would rape u.
Tony also took it upon himself to send me the updated CZ barrel for free, THANKS Tony !! :8:

Quite the list of requests. Say many of these are incorporated into a final version, I’d have to ASSume a price hike. Are most willing to pay to play over an existing Veteran?
Lightweight version with titanium air cylinder and 300 bar fill.
and the .177 Taipan :biggrinn:
Tony here is an easy one for your list. IMPORT the LONG version!!!!!

I agree with Tony 100% , the only thing that I would like it to be even if it where a 5 shot mag. would be a .30 semi auto
gun if such a thing would ever be possible . If not I would still buy a .30 Mutant Shorty . The reason why I didn’t buy the
new .25 Shorty I already have a .25 Vulcan and a .25 Talon SS , both fill all of my shooting requirements as of to date .
I’am in the market for a .30 PCP and it has to be a short gun or fuck it I don’t want it or need it and I will not buy it unless
it is short and will fill my desires and requirements I want it to have period .
:2cents: FROM : THE BIRDMAN
Power adjuster
External regulator adjuster
I would like a longer shroud that doesn’t need an extra LDC
a nice snap on cheek rest to cover the receiver
and a nicer walnut stock
Forward cocking lever, just in front of the trigger would be good.
Then a .22 long veteran that can be setup to 50 ft/lbs if a person wanted that, or dialed down to shoot the Crossman Premier @ 925 fps.
This would be a hammer, or setup for max shots per-fill. Atlas bi pod out on the end of the stock and some serious 5-30 glass. I think that with the awesome trigger I have read so much about and the CZ barrel and 4 or 5 extra mags it would be the bullpup for me.
I like to change up the energy and pellet choices from time to time. This hammer could be just the ticket for that. From mild to wild!!! Nice colored and figured stick on it or black, either is ok;but some killer looking wood would be the pick of the litter 🙂 single point quick release sling and its ready to go.

The only change I would desire, one which would be fairly easy and inexpensive, would be to get rid of the excess wood on that bulky stock.
The gun could be cosmetically enhanced by putting some cutout/curves in the rear butt stock. The bulky forearm serves a purpose, but I would like to see one with a 1″ wide flat strip on the bottom for a picatinny rail, and a well rounded grip going up to the barrel.
Right now the stock is a “clunky” block of wood. There’s no need for that! Cut out some of that butt stock, round off some edges, make it look as good as it shoots!
