Umm... What powers the gun... dilithium crystals? And, can it be set to "stun" in "phaser mode?" All kidding aside, congratulations! This technological leap is astonishing and inspiring!
Please give us a load port in the grip for the battery please, its a bit sh*tty to remove 2 screws, and all grip pieces just to load the battery. And why don't you provide a Europian loading plug in Europe. I cant use the USA standard in Europe. So you can leave that one out for Europe. An other question: Do you provide Europian stores with spare parts, for if something breaks? Thank you, but we need better video's from the manufactor, dont want to see someone shoot a melon everybody can, we need more explenation on shooting slugs with standard provided barrels, dwell time settings for known pellets or slugs, more info about battery life, what about over 10 years, can I still use this airgun, What about the degassing, I have loads of airguns, and this is the first time I have to degass an airgun, more info about future updates, more background in dept info (for better understanding) and please please make upgrade parts and don't make an MKII, then I am done ;) And do you really shoot/test every airgun you produce? Why dont you disclose the target in the suitcase for the costumer? Hard time to believe you shoot every airgun. I notice big words, less info. And still I invested in one Star Trooper .35 in Europe and hope I can count on you.. ;)
They'll need to make some less sophisticated and of course less expansive. To me the hunting mde is the only one interesting they can take off buzzers and HP .
@@stedyone1090 I’m sure that these computerized rifles are all the rage, and that’s fine. Everyone has their thing. I have a Crossman air pistol that belonged to my father. It still works, 40 years later and I can still get parts for it. That is because these are simple machines, and simple is reliable. And I can hunt pigeons or rabbits with my Crossman rifles the same as a Daystate. I’m just wondering if I’m going to be able to find parts for one of these computerized talking squirrel shooters 20 years from now, to say nothing of my kids being able to use them. Maybe. If I’m going to plop down two or three grand for something like this, it had damn well better work in 20 years. I guess we’ll see.
@@bluewater454 This company has been producing electro pneumatic paintball markers for well over 20 years. I have no doubt this rifle will be working fine well beyond 20yrs from now.
The programming flexibility, especially for a PCP with two stage regulator system is a big plus . The Skout Epoch has a dwell feature that allows you to program just enough air when the solenoid is open to push a pellet or slug out the end of the barrel at a speed you choose . No more no less and doesn’t waste air doing it . The computer has already stood the test of time under more adverse conditions in the paintball world To prove its reliability . For bench and field it shouldn’t give any issues and the battery would be your only concern . Making sure it is charged up before a major event .
having a trigger that you have to turn on when a animal walks into range is completely STUPID! I am a hunter who LOVEs the look of these guns and was excited to see this tech pushed. I get that you all believe you have decades of experience in the TOY gun world but in truth that means 0. I would NEVER take a gun into a hunting situation that is more complicated to use than a firearm. Having a trigger that turns off and on is asking for trouble and I think you will lose most hunters this way. While it looks cool it is not functional nor convent to have a trigger with not break and less than a breath to shoot off . Having to hit a button to hit the other button after you turn the gun on and off seems like a feature a gun made by anti hunters would have or made by someone who has never hunted. What is the point anyways? This gun is cool and I want it to be a deer killer but it will never do that in any of these forms or calibers. It is not like this gun will EVER be used to kill anything bigger than rabbits or jays and for most cost than a used Toyota what would be the point? Sorry this thing has to many reasons not to buy it. It makes hunters laugh at it. While the tech in the reg and barrel harmonics is very cool. Plus the look of the gun itself is super boss but looks and regulators do not make for functional hunting tools. What we need is 400 Foot pounds of energy. We need a repeating rifle that shoots 400 foot pounds of energy and UP. We need triggers that have a crisp break so we can feel them through a glove in -30 degree temps. The less things you can do before you shoot in a hunting situation the better. In firearms we are even moving away from safeties. We are going back to lever actions without crossbolt safeties and pistols with no safeties at all. Adding more steps to the shooting process in hunting is a huge joke. This trigger system while inventive in toys will NEVER be accepted as the norm in hunting and self defense. Adding variables is DUMB. The electronic trigger system is fine for a sport you are trying to play with children perhaps. However in a pressure situation where hearts are pounding turning on a electronic gun , then hitting a safety and then pulling the trigger is not a situation ANY hunter worth his weight would ever allow into their kit. This trigger is going to end you as a pcp company. This product has promise. It is by far the coolest looking pcp ever made. Cool looking will sell some of these to those who love air guns for videos on UA-cam or plinkers. But you are completely cutting off the hunting market by forcing this tech into hunting weapons. These are not toys. Guns are made for life and death while paintball guns are made for play. You NEVER take something into a life or death situation that is this complicated because it will get you killed or at very least cost you a animal of a lifetime. I BEG you NOT to use this trigger system! I beg you to make a PCP worth taking hunting BEARS and ELK and not a PCP made to make people on UA-cam say nice things about its looks. Please make us a repeating rifle with a REAL trigger and safety that is NOT complicated to use when adrenaline is pumping at the highest possible levels. Build something I can pass down to my kids kids and not a electronic device with planned obsolescentes issues all electronic devices come with from day one of production. PLEASE make a gun that hits hard enough to drop a Moose and has repeating load capacity of more than 2 or 3 shots per fill and put them in a magazine that is easy to use so I can protect myself from a Grizzly. PLEASE STOP MAKING this version because it is going to bankrupt you!!! I WANT YOU TO BE A SUCCESS! You will not be if you continue to use this tech as it is without more development or complete replacement to the trigger system. You will make it with low power guns. There is a market for them, just ask FX which makes guns that are basically useless for anything with more than 50 lbs or body. However what people like myself have been waiting for in the PCP market is a better hunting rifle. One that hits like the Umarex Hammer or Texan but also allows for more than one or 2 shots go so we can use it to save our lives in a bad situation if needed. Hunting around dangerous game with a pcp is scary enough to worry about the power or whether the trigger will function if a bear suprized you. A trigger like this would get you killed in a hurry. So that makes it a toy and a toy should not be worth $3000+ dollars to get into a rabbit hunting rifle no matter how cool it looks. If you plan to stick with the idea of toys just make toys but do not adapt this electronic nightmare into something and offer it as a real weapon. This gun as it sits is nothing more than a toy that you are marketing as hunting tool. It has great potential but it also has so many things wrong with it by design it will never be accepted by hunters as a go to tool. Everything you are excited about in the Regulator and barrel tech is very badass and it will make for a good shooting PCP. This means nothing however because the electronic trigger is a nonstarter that will never be a real option in a hunting situation. I really want to see you develop these guns and want to see you progress this company into a high end gun company. It is never going to happen with the thinking in place there now. You preach about being a experienced company with lot of knowledge in the gun market because of your Paint throwers. I can see however you have not one PCP big game hunter in the entire group of people developing this rifle right now. You have 0 input from actual hunters who put actual time and sweat into their lifestyles. It is obvious you are not listening to people who will take this into the woods and use at as their main food producer and protect you from mad and angry bears and wolves who are set out to eat us. Maybe think about putting actual REAL hunters into your production. Maybe stop thinking about your previous toy gun experience and listen to people with actual HUNTING experience. I volunteer my time to help. Make me a gun worth hunting with and I will be a customer for life.
You do realize all of this is adjustable. These are just defaults and you can program it to what ever you want. If you not capable of making changes that they have outlined in the past then please don't use anything other then a break barrel.
We certainly appreciate the effort you've put into providing us feedback - we read and discuss as much input from customers as possible - hopefully in the future we will create a product that fits your needs/desires more closely. In response: The core of your concerns appears to be having to turn the rifle on in a hunting scenarios, your concern maybe the result of just a bit of confusion. The air-rifle has a shut down timer, that is user set-able, so you could open that window up to keep the rifle ready to fire for quite a long time. With that timer extended - the only action required to fire is to depress the safety, no more steps than a traditional rifle. The quick-boot demonstrated here is for AFTER that timer has expired - which default is set to 30 minutes - so the rifle would turn off after 30minutes without any user input. Again this can be extended by the user if they choose. Again - thank you for your feedback & input on future projects
Thanks for sharing.
Good info 👍
Love ❤️ my EPOCH.
Gamechanger...
Umm... What powers the gun... dilithium crystals? And, can it be set to "stun" in "phaser mode?" All kidding aside, congratulations! This technological leap is astonishing and inspiring!
I really wished the real world reports of this was better, I was so keen to buy one 😩
Incredible, absolutely incredible. Would love to play with one. Great platform to work with it would seem. Wishing you the best in the future.
Interesting innovation but I’m a big fan of KISS. My Daystate and Talon SS are my go tos
I think I know who's gun that is! :)
Loving mine with the 35 inch barrel!
Great rifle and video 🔥🔥🔥
Can you have a silent “match” mode as the hunt mode is an absolute deal breaker? If so what is the longest time the match timer can be set for?
impressive.
You need to show the accuracy of this rifle because only news do not sale any rifle
Hopefully you can put the voice off.
Yes, you absolutely can turn it off. My buddy has one he hunts with and turns off the noise.
"Hunt mode" silences the voice prompts, as demonstrated in the video.
Truly good Post … But
You should’ve SHOWED US HOW TO CYCLE TO EACH FIRING MODE ???
So Let’s Try That Again …. Please 👌🏽
They show that in another video

Oh guess You haven’t Priced the Alpha Wolf, lately ????
Didn’t Think So ….
It’s Over 3k dude 🤡
Not a fan of all the electronics and controls on a hunting platform. I would never buy something like this for hunting.
They've been using in paintball for many years.
Futuristic advanced controls are here to stay and very popular already.
You ever hear of Daystate??
