In my short time on the forums I’ve learned that this is the least PC site out of all of them. I’ve already had posts removed from Airgun Nation. Hence I ask the site admin here if TT planes to sell this. Purchasing from TT would help fund this place, yes? I’ve got a pre-order with R&L but, price-dependent, I’d rather buy from here.
I can’t remember ever telling anybody not to buy a priest, or suggested an other gun to buy instead, my only comment is that from an aesthetical point of view is very lacking, ……One butt ugly poorly designed gun.
Performance/Specs ? …….I couldn’t give a crap since my airgunning is mainly in a different direction and I’m not even looking at this type of guns,
so to all you sensitive “Sweethearts” just don’t get your panties all up in a bunch for some minor “ugly” comments, …there much more important stuff out there, much more believe me :biggrinn:
I’ve been a member of this Forum for quite a while and your comments are actually pretty toned down compared to the lingo we used here before. This Forum has always been , for me , the very best AG Forum on the Net and that due the freedom of speech and the way we keep it real – no sugar on the top.
That isn’t for those faint at heart though so everyone needs to check the Testosterone level before logging in.
That said , again , i too find the Priest fugly as hell and i , for one , would never buy one like i wouldn’t buy the treaded “Beluga” in neither its first or later incarnations.
When one wants something it’s hard to see/hear any negatives about that choice. That goes with one’s choice of Car,Weapon,Wife etc. Most people can’t see the forest due all the trees when it comes to that. I mean 9 out of 10 parents to a truly ugly Child think their ugly Kid is oh so cute. 😉

Tony You gonna Be selling these???
Tony
Site admin…. given anymore thought to this or wait to see if it’s a total flop?
I’m sure you’ve done a lot for the airgunning community. I could probably learn a lot from you. I’ll give you that. But really, no need for threadcrapping.
ETA: besides being “butt ugly”, do you find anything else about this setup that potential buyers ought to be aware of? Serious question.
I’ve worked in the firearms industry and I know EXACTLY the games played in various forums in an attempt to sell something of yours or discredit the competition. Bottom line.
Being a new guy around here ( airgun forums ) you obviously know very little of what happened in the past, and you can go do a big search and I’ve taken on or otherwise negatively commented on many airguns and never there was a sales pitch involved, also I don’t think I ever suggested here or on any other forum to buy a WARP over any other gun, so your little whiny post is pretty,….whiny ? :biggrinn:
I never compared the WARP with the Priest, those guns are not even in the same category to be matched against each other, so again you post is pretty much worthless :biggrinn:
But,…..I’ll say this again (and that’s got nothing to to with other airguns) that Priest is a “Butt ugly” gun indeed, I’m not interested in Bullpups, been down that road and had 6 Bullpups and I’ve gone away from them so I’m not trying to sell any other brand :biggrinn: :biggrinn: :biggrinn:
LOL, not into bullpups, but here to threadcrap and represent war. :fishing:
You don’t care for The Priest. Yeah, we get it. How tall are you? You’ve seem to have short guy syndrome. :rofl: :4:
Part of the reason that I was so interested in the exploded diagram is that I wanted to know how I would go about adjusting the velocity. There doesn’t appear to be any provisions on the gun for “quickly” changing the velocity. I have only seen a spring and or weight combination depending on the 125bar regulator set pressure and the 150bar. I can only assume this was done to maximize efficiency and not necessarily power output though that would happen. I am sure with a little creativity that a hammer spring preloader can be fabricated in some way but this doesn’t seem to be a home tuners dream quite like the Impact offers with all of its power adjustibility.
Lets just hope that RTI focued on accuracy then efficiency rather than just shot count efficiency when they chose the spring and ballist weights.
BTW, I would almost certainly buy a CF bottle if someone wants to make that available for this gun, if it isn’t already. It seems that so long as the dimensions and threading are right for the bottle, it would be as simple as degassing and screw off the reg on the aluminum bottle to screw onto the CF.
:rofl: KLR 650 A subject that I am a true expert in,
A beautiful bike if you know what your looking at, Butt ugly if you do not know squat, :8: :8: :8:

Luckily “beauty is in the eye of the beholder”. I like the functional look – although I’d like to see a rounded bottom on a carbon fiber tank on it.
But then I think ARs are as nice looking as fine walnut guns, Wranglers are as nice looking as Corvettes and KLR650’s are as nice looking as Street Glides…. just from a functional/practical “beauty” point of view. I just wish I could have one of each (of those I don’t own) :sadn:
To each their own…
Anyone know if the pellet velocity can be changed? I assume it would require changing the hammer spring and/or messing with the reg setting?
Manny, Manny – you scare the new guy …

Not overly hurt when I could buy the WarP if I wanted to but I choose to wait to check out the RTI. In my book that places it higher than the WarP on my list of desires. It’s all fine and dandy you don’t like the Priest, so move along as we are all well aware. It’s that you sound like a shill for war and probably got the thing for free or cheap in return for an ongoing review…and kudos to you if that’s the case or not. But just seems to me like a really shitty marketing tactic. That’s the reason for my butthurt.

Hey Ville, …totally forgot about the Beluga, man that gun was getting slammed for months about the “looks”
if this type of Hypersensitive folks where back than planning to buy a Beluga they would have been crying all over the Keyboards for days at end :biggrinn: :biggrinn: :biggrinn:
