Like you I was interested in all sorts of mods / improvements before receiving the rifle. However, once the rifle arrived I found that the only mod that I really needed was to quiet her down. I was floored by how loud this rifle is with just a 24″ barrel and no moderation. I ordered one of Tony’s…Read more

WTF??? I thought that these forums were here to help folks find what they need. Some guy posted a want ad in the classifieds. I answered with a link that provided exactly what he wanted…Read more

I really like that rear grip.

Airgunner, thanks very much!

Next time just fan your ass and say “More beans Mr. Taggart”? 😛

Hey RiffRaff, what’s it take to put a grip / grip frame like yours on my rifle? That’s really sweet.

Oops sorry. Yes 31.02 gr. Typo. At least I remembered the correct weight in my energy calculations. 😳

Thanks for the feedback. I think I’m gonna’ enjoy this rifle allot.

Can’t shoot her anymore until Tony sends my shroud though. I had a neighbor do a slow drive by the other day. No doubt curious as…Read more

Now, when I shoot this target with my Benjamin Discovery I am rewarded with a satisfying “ThhhwaCK!!!!” and a nice back and forth rocking of the pendulum. However, When the Condor fires the .25 cal JSB at the same spinner…Read more

I’m in contact with Tony via email and will be placing my order for a shroud as soon as I hear back for m him.

Once I get this sucker quieted down I can get down to some serious shooting.

I proceeded to charge the tank via my Benjamin hand pump. The first thing that I learned is that it takes 520 strokes to completely fill an empty Condor bottle using this pump. 😯

The second thing that I learned is that on the lowest power setting the Condor will propel a .25 cal. pellet at a surprising…Read more

The adapter is due to arrive this morning and I’ve got tomorrow off. WAHOO!!! Of course my scope isn’t here yet either so I’ll be temporarily using a 4 X 32 Simmons just to see what it’ll print on paper. I’ll report back with my initial impressions.

Seems that if you order the gun w/o the hand pump or scuba adapter all you get is the gun. If however you order the gun w/ pump or scuba tank clamp, the pump alone or tank clamp alone you’ll get the adapter too.

Oh well, What’s another couple of days and another $30.00????

Condor with a stock tank? Maybe I should be happy with the advertised 60 ft lbs?

It’s not that I’ve got a critter problem that warrants 100 ft lbs it’s just that I love to see and hear a reaction when that pellet hits the mark.…Read more

I have noted many complaints with regard to those safeties.

So, ten or more shots at 100ft lbs is unrealistic? I may have to rethink my goals then.

Thanks for all of the help. I’m looking forward to visiting the forum often over the coming months. Oh, and now I know allot more about certain herbs and their…Read more
