I’ll trade you a Condor for one of those escorts ❗ 😆 😯 😈

Welcome 😀

That would make it a ConWhore 😀

Make sure you use the proper protection–CONdoms for your personal health.

If he emailed you and obviously implied that he was going to harm you, plus sent the picture, plus connected it with a bad business deal, it may be enough for the police to visit him.

Assault is very hard to prove, but he gave you a ton of evidence.

I really like my micrometer tank. Aside from many low power shots, another advantage is that the shots are very quiet without the need for a shroud.

I’m sure there are ways to tune the rifle to achieve a superior result. Using both tanks, I can easily swap them out and in seconds go from 50+ FPE, but…Read more

Here is what I have gotten from the thread.

1) Others have some trouble shooting off hand with the Condor as well mainly due to ergonomics/balance

2) Balancing it with weights might help

3) Shooting form may help

4) Practice will definitely help.

I will try these suggestions and hopefully will get better at it.…Read more

Just checking to see if many people have been successful in adjusting to shooting with a large shroud on a 24″ barrel off hand. I am sure I would get better with practice, but it is an uphill climb compared to shooting without the shroud.

It will fill a 3000PSI 80 CF tank in 24 hours. He is no longer going to make a 4500 PSI model. He tried, but it wasn’t reliable enough, so now it will just be a 3000 PSI model.

That is what I got from reading the info on the fb page.

If you want the most comfortable gun to shoulder or the quietest gun that hasn’t been tuned or worked on, the Condor probably isn’t for you.

It helps a lot with the noise and also provides about twice as many shots.

They are lower power, but great for target shooting. If you plan on shooting in the 500-600 velocity range, I think you would like the micrometer tank.

I got a condor 2 months ago. It is loud when using the 24″ barrel on full power, but the 12″ barrel is quieter than the whisperer.

When I am target shooting, I like using the micrometer tank. Accuracy is still good, you get about 90 shots, and it is much quieter. It is less powerful, but you don’t need the power for targets.
