Looks to me like it would be similar to a pathfinder but much cheaper
NOT INTERESTED. I will NEVER, EVER, buy an airgun with a bonded moderator. Isn't going to happen. I sincerely hope, or rather wish, that everyone else would do the same, so that they wouldn't even consider doing it. I will be paying more, gladly, for a MicroStrike. This one can die on the vine.I watched the video on it. Sub 1.5 MOA at 45 yards, under $300, regulated with an SD under 3. I have no experience with Air Venturi (yet), but this seems like an excellent first or second rifle/carbine. With an estimated January ship date, unfortunately they're missing the mark for Christmas. Hopefully for them they will show up early. I look forward to reading @FL22 and @Pumacarl initial reviews (they seem to try a lot of new guns ) LOL.
these have a bonded mod?
He actually states that the moderator may be glued to an adapter.
Are you going to wait for the ,177?
Yes. Once, they are reliably in the supply chain, I will be getting a .177 MicroStrike. The only thing that they are 'proposing' to do really right with the Alpha is all the configuration options for air supply, they should be doing that with the more expensive MicroStrike too. I'm sure that it will happen eventually anyway. I'm not so sure that the non-adjustability of everything on the Alpha is a big deal. I would just tear into it once and adjust it to the way that I wanted it anyway. I could even extricate a lousy bonded moderator. I just would never condone or reward a manufacturer for bonding a moderator, so no sale.
This one’s not for me Bill, I agree with @PumacarlI watched the video on it. Sub 1.5 MOA at 45 yards, under $300, regulated with an SD under 3.

).let me help you off that wagonUnless I fall off the wagon and buy something out of the used AoA section again (those Airgun puppy dog eyes they get me every time
Here’s what he says in the review video. First he states there is no adapter, then he says that maybe it’s glued to the threads. A little confusing.
That Venom is very tempting. But, then I’m thinking the Microstrike might be a fun offhand 25yd plinker. It needs a bottle upgrade though.This one’s not for me Bill, I agree with @Pumacarl
Between the two, MicroStrike. You’re just going to have to wait for me to get a .30 Venom

Extremely close family resemblance for sure. My guess is its made by snowpeak.Looks like Snowpeak Mercury Compact

Given the roll Snowpeak has been on the last few years, other than bonded moderator, it is probably their next winning flavor of the month. Pp750/Notos, M60b/Zelos, Max1 they have been hitting on all cylinders.
