Fast is an understatement accurate is an understatement. The Airgun world is about to be shaken up ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป


2026 just got really interesting ๐Ÿ‘Œ
 
Iโ€™m Leary of prepaying $1300 on the promise of a March shipping date. The airgun industry seems to operate on the same principle of the computer industry in the 1980โ€™s with โ€œvaporwareโ€, over promise and under deliver as far as shipping dates. Iโ€™m still waiting on my fully paid for AV Bell target lol. A deposit similar to what AOA does would seem more in line.

Absolutely, I messaged to find out if I would be charged at shipment on a preorder - No, in full at time of purchase.

So, Iโ€™m pumping the brakes. Iโ€™m still very interested in knowing the MSRP, that could make me consider it.

Iโ€™m okay with a deposit for a regular price if itโ€™s something that I want.

I am also okay with prepaying if itโ€™s a substantial savings, but no one is holding my money and not doing me any favors ๐Ÿ‘Ž.

I applaud your spidey-sense and yes I remember the vaporware of yore. Tom runs a pretty taut ship at HighPressure Pneumatics and sells quite a few Skout Airguns and also has a team of shooters that do quite well with his set-ups. I am certain we will hear more from Skout (on another thread I am aware of on this site) and from HPP. Just waiting now on that proverbial slow boat from Taiwan.

Great price on that Tom! Should sell out quick. I want one.
 
๐Ÿ”ถ I am sorry: ๐Ÿ˜ž
I am a die-hard bullpup man.... ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ

But....:
Over the years, I have made room in my heart for some FSR's (Folding Stock Rifles).


โž  So, the Skout in question of the OP qualifies on that account.



๐Ÿ”ถ Also, for years, I thought:
"Semi-auto is just a frilly thrill!" ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Well, after the many times that feral pigeons tried to prove to me the size of their bird brain โ€”
and remained sitting next the their comrade that I just murdered with a .22cal pellet โ€”
I finally saw the light of semi-auto!! ๐Ÿ”†


So, I'm looking at the shape of the Skout โ€”
and wonder:


โžŠ Why is the action so tall, so massive, so over-proportioned in comparison to the rest of the gun...?
โžง Visual appeal:
Skout, please, fire your industrial designer, if you haven't already.



โž‹ Why โ€” if I rest the bottle on a field support like a bag on a fence โ€” why does the scope sit so high above....?

โžง Balance of the rested gun:
Skout, rethink your action, please, and move stuff forward and backward โ€” instead of downward from the barrel..... โ€” RTI is a good model of this right.



๐Ÿ”ถ The very, very friendly MRSP might still convince me to overcome problems in visual appeal and balance โ€”
because the semi-auto bug has bitten me โ€”
and it has bitten me โฌ›BAD.
