    When this rifle first hit the shops quite a few years ago I hated it when I saw it , I got the chance to try one ,and after shooting 50 pellets ,I walked back into the shop and brought the thing,I fell in love with the way the cocking mech worked, and the fit and feel was fantastic, I owned it for around two years and it never missed a beat.

    I have one of these in .177...Not long after i bought it i had to change the magazine indexing post because it was too weak to index the mag..I got one of those mk 2 indexing posts and job solved..Also the scope rail started to wobble from side to side slightly so i had to remove the scope and tightend the 2 allen key screws holding the rail to the gun..It started to lose zero and that is how i found out the scope rail was moving..

    Would be great to see you review a BSA Defiant, Richard. I was a lover of bullpups until I experienced ownership of the BSA Defiant which had a unique regulator that provided a wonderful power curve just like a rifle without a regulator 🙄
    Ended up taking it back and swapped for a Dreamline with no regrets.

    • @airgunextra
      @airgunextra  3 роки тому +1

      Thanks very much. I've reviewed both before for Airgun Shooter magazine, but 12 ft. lbs. They are beautifully made, the AGT particularly so. The side lever on the Prophet was a little stiff and I didn't like the way it had to be clipped back in place, but accurate? Oh yes... I'd love to get my hands on FAC versions of both to review. On the list :) . Thanks for watching and take care...

  • @stephenspencer8224
    @stephenspencer8224 2 роки тому

    Perhaps I’m not a Marmite personality and therefore haven’t a set persuasion on traditional rifles versus bull pups, although the notion of a lever right before the butt pad strikes as problematic.
    I prefer carbines to full length rifles however there are a number of bull pups or semi-bull pups which I would love to shoot.
    Some of which my interest is down to your very watchable reviews, for which once again you have my thanks.

    • @airgunextra
      @airgunextra  2 роки тому +1

      Hi. The Galahad comes with either a dovetail rail or Picatinny rail (looks like a series of notches/groves). If you have dovetail then 11mm mounts will fit. If you have Picatinny then you'll need 22mm Picatinny mounts. I hope that helps.

    @plummz 3 роки тому

    I can't quite get past the awkward looks despite its abilities. I realise they had to have a gap between the barrel and the cylinder because of the cocking mechanism but AA should have taken the opportunity to fit a bottle. That would have helped increase shot count (especially in the fac version) and tidied up the looks
