Well done Giles, I don't normally like unboxing videos especially when you see someone endlessly tearing off strips of packaging and pulling off fingers lumps of sellotape. But you got straight to the product, looking forward to the review.
I have one now for a year and the quality is very disappointing. Suddenly the fill probe wouldn't fit anymore, occasionally a bullet jams between the magazine and the barrel, now the qocking lever opens when I fire... after several quick fixes in the store it now is taken in for a solid repair. I tested the power with a chronograph and it delivers 20% less than the vendor promises. The trigger works heavy and crude and the walnut stock makes the gun very heavy. Half a year ago I bought a Hatsan Bullboss. Never had any problem with that one, 20 % MORE power than the vendor promises, a fine trigger, a lovely grip and balance. So I regret having bought the Puncher Breaker and I enjoy having bought the Bullboss.
I have the Pitbull Puncher Breaker it very nice gun and shoots very good .177 I have FX guns as wall and shoot wall too but the pitbull is 1/3 the cost
those are sexy looking bullpups indeed... i remember keeping an eye on them when they first came out, but there was some issue that some people were having with the hammer or some internal part becoming damaged possibly due to a defect in the metal (or was it from people tuning their rifles to exceed intended performance? i can't remember). this also could just be the standard growing pains of getting a new product to market and having it field tested en masse, but i haven't heard anything recently about that issue, so i'm guessing the good folks at Kral got that sorted out? if you're familiar with what i'm speaking about, i'd love to hear your updated info on the topic when your full review for the Puncher Breaker comes out! thanks for another great video, Giles!
definitely replace the cocking handle, their made of cheap pot metal and it will break. they have addressed all the internal problems on these new mk2 models.
Evening Giles, I likey likey. Thought you would steer clear of the cheaper brands after the disastrous Artemis thingy but I wish you luck with it. Can you answer a question for me please as BASC website seems not to mention it. Are we permitted to use slugs in the UK? I am hoping to use an FAC rated FX Impact in 25 cal for long range pesting and slugs would be ideal. Keep up the good work. Richard
Giles I was waiting for you to munch some Turkish Delight instead of cakes at the end LOL . PS what's having two cordless hoovers all about? Without being sexist. You own loads of guns so is the misses going to start reviewing hoovers LOL? Or just come out of the closet that collect hoovers too! That would make a great spin off video.
