Others A New Wolf Rises

[pan60]

P.S. @ Daystate how about a 14" barrel? by the time I stick a moderator on this its getting awfully long for someone such as my wife to carry and she shoots and I get guns just for her. that aside although I am not short it longer then I like when the moderator is added.
a short barrel and tube would be welcome.

Well lets make a simple quick comparison of the blackwolf to the revere!

Do you really think the blackwolf is still worth it as the revere will most likely shoot right along with it.

I do. I was thinking about getting a revere. Beautiful rifle. Not as easily tunable, so I was leaning towards another ghost to make it easier to set up just how I wanted it. Cost me another grand, but if I'm happy, who cares? I'm not really a bull pup guy, but what are you going to do? Then I saw the posts concerning the Black Wolf. I decided to wait and see. This gun suits me better so I ordered one. I enjoy my Ghost, but we'll see which one goes out the back door more often.

one thing I feel is over looked with airguns to fire arms is numbers. numbers as in how many whats the volume.
a firearm is selling in massive numbers compared to air guns.
volume matters in manufacturing.
if we seen as many air riffle being sold as you seen in a firearm the prices would be more comparable.
as to pellets I do feel the same they should not be as costly or relitify close to a .22 Lr but again its numbers volume matters.

@pan60 Great comments! You are right on the money here...

Did they give you an estimate of when the rifles are coming in?

The thought already came into my mind for a 300mm/12" barrel and shorter air cylinder as a separate option. Not for anyone else but for me lol. If it could get at least 30 FPE max and a minimum of 30 shots using the tube cylinder with the ability to tune down to 12 FPE, that would be awesome.

I spoke to AOA. Basically sold out of their initial allotment in preorders. 1 177 17” available still. Getting shipments monthly, but will probably sell out in preorders like we saw with the Delta Wolf release. Tactical is delayed for around 60 days.

Not sure about other vendors… Most of the others don’t even have it on their site, even though listed as vendors.

So many choices, so many options. Seems like a really good platform.

I had spoken for a .177 a bit over a week ago. When I called they had one of those in stock. I opted for the chassis rifle which they do not have yet. His estimate was April/May. I got the impression that the other models would be this quarter (which is half over). I assume those that were at the event last night spoke for what they had. Best thing to do is pick what you want, and get on the list.

I already called and asked… got the same update couple comments back. Getting them in every month. Chassis is delayed. At least 60 days. Not spending that much on the chassis though. I really wanted one, but guess I’ll move on and wait for it used or for the price drop like I did for the Delta.

Yeah, I figured I never had a chassis so I'd try one. Shoot this for a bit, if I like it maybe pick up a couple more variants when they go down a bit.
