Hello Tedd,

– poor: Certainly not. I don’t think anyone owning a $1800 + airgun can be classed as poor 😆

– misguided: Yes, having followed your advice to buy an Edgun 😆

– friend: True, beyond any doubt 😉

I’m still waiting for the right weather to test if my…Read more

Booklet will not do for a visually oriented mechanical idiot like me :cry::cry::cry:
P L E A S E, some of you geniuses out there, make a step-by-step video on taking apart,…Read more

Yes, please, would someone do it ❓ to help a complete and utter mechanical idiot like myself 😥 😥 😥

It took me two years to master…Read more

– I have a request:

Would you please stop emailing/messaging me about what rifle to choose ? 🙄

I cannot answer that question, and I don’t think anybody else can either. It all depends on your own situation and needs……

Also, it is far too early to be able to draw any sort of final…Read more

Yes, Sir, length overall. As a boatman I’m used to that abreviation for overall lengh ❗ I am particularly interested in it to see if I can shoot a .25 Cricket out of a car window, which to me is the whole purpose of a bullpup 😉

🙂

❓

Ed, thank you for the reassurance that my sclerosis is not as bad as I thought 😉

Can’t wait…

🙂

I’ll try to get an HW 100 probe and hope it will do the job.

🙂

I have received my .25 R3 Standard back from Ed after some repairs he performed on the moderator.

Unfortunately, I can’t test the gun myself due to an inexplicable for my age disappearance of the filling port/adapter 🙄 🙄 🙄

I am very happy to have the gun back but would be even happier if someone has an…Read more

Probably not what Koljo is looking for……

Nik, – has he not returned your gun yet ??? 😯 😯 😯

No, Trygve, the gun has still not been returned to me 😕

At Ed’s suggestion I sent back my very inaccurate R3 Standard last September. In late November I got an e-mail from him saying…Read more

Your enthusiasm and dedication to our hobby have been of great moral support in a very painfull for me 2012 😉

BTW, after paying Ed 1200 perfectly good euros back in July, all I have to my credit from him at the moment is this e-mail:

Друзья,

Поздравляю с наступающим Новым годом! Говорят, что в…Read more

I think I’ll go for this one………. 😉

Good choice, Trygve 😆

BTW, is she SS or MS? 😉

Friend Nik from beautiful Bansko

😀

Unfortunately no .25 Ultras 😥

yes there is a .25 ultra 🙂

Where? Factory or one off? How many shots per fill from the Ultra’s tiny reservoir?!?!?

Thanks 🙂

Ed, may I take this opportunity to focus your attention to my minor problem 😉

Thank you in advance!

🙂

Makes two of us……. 😳

At least !!!

😀

Hey, oldgoat, what the hell are we doing among that bunch of fossils… or is it more polite to say patriarchs 😆 In any case lets hope their condition is not contagious 😯 😯 😯

😀

😀

Unfortunately no .25 Ultras 😥

You would then the best of both worlds, Matador shot efficiently and the BSA barrel’ s accuracy.

Hey OLD ❗ goat, I ordered a .25 R3 Standard because it’s the shortest (accurate???) bullpup in that caliber. I needed a really SHORT&ACCURATE airgun…Read more

Cheers 😀

For an air hungry calibre like the quarter bore, my R3 Standard is AMAZINGLY air efficient. Much more so than my current pride and joy – my .25…Read more

… and those grapes are sour too…

😆 😆 😆

Put a hose clamp around it, and tighten it as tight as possible.

Using either a hex end nut driver, or a pair of vice grips, grasp the nut on the hose clamp.

Turn counter-clock-wise as hard as you can, or until it breaks loose, or the hose clamp begins to slip.

H :shock:…Read more

We shall see what happens ❓

Kazzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz, has it occurred to you that the problem with unscrewing your front shroud might lie in your Avatar which is bound to be making your hands (or at least one of them :wink:) too shaky 😯

😆

🙂

What makes Ed stand out from the crowd of the usual hard to reach/profit chasing/couldn’t-care-less airgun manufacturers? Well, personally I…Read more

Yes, it could… An even older Oldgoat 😈 😈 😈

🙂

Any news ???? 🙄

Nope. Not yet 😥 I guess I have to be more patient 😉

I used it once, while…Read more

– and NIK, – thanks for the “fifth P”, – may I have another one now please ???? 😉

1. Riverside, any bird is good for me as long as she comes from Shepherd’s Bush 😉 Been utterly pleased by all of them… So far… 😀

And the trophy for that prize is… yet another P (Piss Off) 😆 😆 😆

Friend Nik from beautiful Bansko,

So when are you going to sell the Matador… 😯 😕

Yep, didn’t think you would. 😆

Zoco’s test targets from the Cricket/Matador thread…

Yep, you are right, not selling the…Read more

The next most important thing I look for in a bullpup is L E N G T H !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
To me a bullpup over a certain length is useless, my measure being the capability to use it…Read more

Simple inventions = pure genius 😳 😳 😳

🙂

PS. I might start charging fees for giving EDgun related advice on a BSA Lonestar thread 😆

Inquiring minds want to know! 😆

Well, Tedd, after refusing to take time off your debaucheries 😆 😆 😆 to help out a friend, I had to find a way to solve the problem myself. In the end, after soaking the tube with WD40 for a week, and after nearly…Read more

The target on the picture has obviously nothing to do with my gun. 😯 Even more, the inscription on the breech is also false because it is written “CAL. 5.5”, and the gun itself is a cal. 6.35 (.25) one 😯 :shock:…Read more

I have just discovered one possible cause for the inaccuracy of my new R3 Standard:

As you might see in my poor quality picture, there are definite pellet clipping marks on the first and second baffle. As soon as someone more technically minded than me advises me how to cure that problem I might suddenly become…Read more

Can’t wait for the side by side comparison…

My BSA barrel is indeed an old production one, but not as old as that OLDgoat 😆 😆 😆

I’ll do the side-by-side as soon as I succeed to unscrew the front bit of the R3 shroud to check if clipping is the cause of it’s…Read more

🙂

Terry, unlike the stock design, I am not at liberty to discuss the trigger mechanism and scope mount on open forum. The engineer, whom I hired to devise them, has asked me to share his ideas only in private. Please, PM me and I’ll be happy to talk about it.…Read more

Correction: “Whatever bullpup you make — you will have an EDgun STOCK at the end” 🙂

Yes, I must admit the EDgun stock is EXTREMELY well thought out — very comfortable and shoulderable, and,…Read more

However with that mass amount of area, looks like you would be better off with a 50cal…LOLOL

Jack

That’s it! A 50 cal multu-shot one from Ed would suit me just right 😀

Cheers,
Nik 🙂

quote koljo:jetboy1, I unashamedly envy you 😡 😡 😡

Ed, after Portugal, on the way back to Mother Russia, you are very welcome to Bansko, Bulgaria, to perform your magic on my new and beautiful but very inaccurate .25 R3 Standard.

Hey Tedd, thanks for publicly exposing yourself as a phony goat. We, goats, don’t have arms but legs 😉 However, having torn out your left rotator cuff shows that you are doing your best to become a true oldgoat 😆 😆 😆

I shot these groups with my left arm in a sling. Not to shabby for a one armed oldgoat!

Hey Tedd, you are among the most generous and gracious people I’ve been lucky to meet 😀 But don’t forget also that you are the YOUNGER Old Goat, so calm down a little with…Read more

I’ll post groups when I have them photographed..

I do believe and I’ve seen even better results from my gun 🙂 but if would be nice to win the competition.

Where exactly??? 🙄

I am most interested since I am about to start extensive comparison tests between my .25 JB’d Lonestar bullpup with a hammer forged BSA barrel (old production) and my recently acquired .25 R3 Matador Standard with a LW barrel from Ed’s latest choice.

🙂

Trygve,

Please, look upon your thread as a priceless gem which we, mere mortals, hardly deserve. Your unbiased attitude is something nearly extinct in those vulgarly commercialized times of ours, and it is quite reassuring to have a “breath of fresh air” from time to time.

Friend Nik,…Read more
