AirForce Talon SS PCP Air Rifle, Spin-Loc, Red

jaw-dropping accuracy. made long shots that friends still can't believe. that is before the gun started falling apart.

the tank mounting mechanism is awful. there is no way (that i found) to make sure fhe tank is locked in the correct position. the tank lock set screw fell out immediately, couldn't find in gravel. the set screw on the tank nozzle was next to go. every set screw on the gun fell out sooner rather than later. is it ok to make an aluminum gun with steel set screws holding it together? i was always told not to do this for several reasons. look it up. last straw - set screws holding barrel assy. in tube fell out-fired the gun and entire barrel and bushings flew out. the closest piece was approx. 100 ft away. never found the barrel! and so on, and so on.............

in 9 mos. had more problems with this piece than all of the air arms AND firearms i have ever owned. am in touch with air farce so the end solution is still open. i've had enough, no more set screws, tanks that you can't mount properly, etc, etc. i should have bought the benjamin marauder as i was advised. let's see what air farce will or can do for me. more to come.

Well made and accurate. Light weight and feels very comfortable to shoot.

Nothing.

Packs a punch yet quiet!

u like the compact design but when i tested it it doesnt shoot straight out of the box...i ended up removing the baffles of the silencer and tested it again....only then it shoots straight o a half inch group...oh well.

It's light, easy to use, powerful even in .177 as I almost shot out back of pellet trap by gamo in three shots it had deformed the trap at 30yds. Filled cone with duct seal now gonna last forever lol.

Not an engineer nor gunsmith.

May be pricey and look like buck Rogers but this thing is accurate and fun to shoot. Also very quiet, not pin drop like Marauder but still very quiet. Neighbors dog on other side of fence just sat and watched as do my own. Basically a hand clap

My first impression (have a few years experience handling R&D military weapons) was - WOW this feels great! It really appears to be a balanced, solid base and throws up well. This weapon comes as assembly required. Not very difficult, take your time and it goes pretty quick - this will also help you understand how the power plant works. The included DVD is great starting point. Having dealt with high power energy for my entire adult life - I dialed the power setting to 0 and gave it a couple dry fires. Everything seems to work, so loaded it up and shot it across the field. So quiet, I thought I miss fired, I heard the mechanics - didn't hear any air... Thought to my self, great, already broke it! Did a quick peek down the barrel and didn't find a pellet! Operation Check Stat - time to crank it up. I found about level 3 was a good starting point. Scope 0 was confusing at first (aw! pellets going through the same hole), but now it's shooting shaggy 1 hole groups at 20 meters!

This weapon requires about 6 different sizes of allen wrenches. Also, would throw a magnetic foster fitting in the mix - the plastic one just doesn't seem to work all that well. Minor I know, having to hunt for stuff actually! Other than the superfluously stated; this rifle is right on the money.

Site picture takes some time to get use too. Trigger location is shorter that I'm personally use to. These are minor; after about 30 shots, I was adjusted.

While this sounds like a toy; the impact and accuracy is a weapon. It is almost hole for hole accurate at 20 meters (haven't had the chance to shoot further yet).

Hand pumping tanks from dry to 3000 psi is a chore, it sucks, it makes your back hurt, got blisters.... It took me a few hours to get the tank pumped up, due to break times :). However once you get it pumped up, you can maintain it pretty easy. So, if you can find a way to get that initial charge, afterwards the hand pump goes pretty quick.

Like that it feels like it can take a beating and lots of space for accesories and the power wheel is nice to have

The price its pretty expensive for a simple looking build..I would hve made a nicer stock more like a maddog style. .did I mention the price hahaha

Great gun with heavy pellets on high power 10

Accuracy is amazing and it shoots most pellets I've shot very well

Interchangeable grips would b nice

It's quiet but still loud enough to get a little attention at night

US MADE!! Compact, lightweight and accurate. Lots of information out there as to how to tweak and modify this gun platform for accuracy and/or power. Trigger is OK to good.

Safety system is not so good. As in any gun, don't rely on it. Lots of reports of spontaneous firing as safety is released.

VERY accurate. With JAB Exact pellets shoots 1/2" groups at 30 yards consistently. Conserve air by dialing down the power. Still plenty of power to take care of squirrels at lower settings. There are lots of accessories designed and sold by users available. Look at TalonAirgun.com forums for a great deal of information on this gun/platform since it's release. Also, AirForce is a USA company! I had a missing spin-loc spanner wrench that they quickly mailed out to me.

good power in .25 cal and accurate.

how about a color in green!!

this is my fifth airforce rifle and the finish is great.
