History of AF airguns…
http://www.airforceairguns.com/images_new/us%20airgun%20winter%202000/page1.jpg
I once put a pic up of the prototype “Stealth” that geof darvill took to a gun show (someone said it didn’t actualy work 😉 ) it was that american fella who took the idea and made the Talon,and they now share the market,
I think 😉
JJ.. 😎
Well the story gose , as told to me by my RFD who knows the talon designer , that the designer got talking to an American investor , to market a powerfull airgun into the new emerging American market. But the American investor knew that you could sell to the patriotic US market in larger numbers if you said it was American made and not made by Johny Foreigner ….. ie us the Brits 😀 . So production was split between the two countries . How much of this is true and where the parts are made ! and if this still continues…. i have no clue 😯
So sorry … ive kept this too myslf for years ! ……its a weight off my shoulders ! ….. dont shoot the messenger !
L8r
P.S ….. my RFD could be delusional !
Actually makes sense. I always thought the http://www.stealthresource.org/ was a UK’ish site.
Made In the UK?????
they’re made right here in Fort Worth Texas, USA !!!
So if i told you that some of the parts for Airforce guns are made in the UK 😯 …… you would be abit upset then ! 😯
Ok just forget i said anything !!!! 😯
Hehe ! L8r
I’d like to hear this
What parts are UK made? barrels? extrusions?
Would like to know the full history of the airforce gunpower co-op.

I can’t believe how many of those IDIOT’s pointed their guns up in the air before bring it down to the target! 👿
That would get you bounced from any range that I know of!
There are back stops at these shows, and they are NOT in the Air!
Fucking Morons. All we need is just one stinking accident at a major show!
When you shoot competition like that most people hold the gun up like that, breath, and let the gun slowly fall to the target. It’s a good way to do it.
And yeah, it’s an edge. Shoot it straight up and the pellet won’t come all the way out of the barrel. 😛

Lol, didn’t you know it was an English chap that designed the Talon ?
was that Macglashin or sum such?
What exactly is the full history of the Talon/Stealth?
