PCP MAC1 USFT is inbound to the house!!

[Woogie_man]

Ok I have an issue guys!

This has been one of those rifles that I have looked at for YEARS and I have never been able to afford one. And when I was able to finally able to consider one Tim didn't make as many of them and they became hard to get. I missed one a few months ago over on AGN, but was looking a week ago and I found another one. Was able to talk to the gentleman quite a bit about the rifle and we were able to settle on a deal. So now I have the rifle inbound to the house and I am ecstatic to see the rifle and shoot it. Though now my smart aleck wife is threatening to hold the rifle until Christmas!

Planning on using the spare Element scope I have sitting in my safe on the rifle, but of course I am already looking at other options. Anything you guys are curious about just ask and let me know!

Hmmm my question is; do you have a pic of it? Never heard of that one before! I just pulled the trigger on a Midas Tac, same deal it's gonna end up being a Christmas present... i just can't wait that long, then ill have a spare (Hawke) scope too for such unexpected gun purchases.

I can get pictures of the rifle when it gets here for sure.

The rifle is a very basic build, you have the air cylinder a riser type block and the barrel. The hammer is exposed and it is a very minimalist type rifle. But they use to be the top field target gun for a while. Honestly they still could be but I would think the Thomas is a better rifle.

When I get the rifle here in the house I will do a good run down of the rifle with plenty of pictures.



Just got tracking for the rifle, and it is showing a delivery date of the 23rd. So long as the weather holds out I should be able to have the rifle this weekend.

Can't wait to learn more about this impressive rifle!

Not sure what else may be hiding in your safe, but I am lucky enough to have two USFTs and access to my wife's and my Thomas. I bought the USFT as my first rifle and shot it over two years in FT competition. It taught me the basics at the very least. It's a bit rough compared to the refined Thomas but lots of fun to shoot.

It is also very accurate.

 

[Conecrusher]

Noice! Are the later ones regulated? That 1911 style grip just always makes me smile.

 

[Franklink]

For field target, as good as it gets.

 

[Franklink]

The beauty in them lies in the unregulated versions.
Mine fills to 1500psi 40-45 shots, refill at 1300psi. I've shot perfect scores in field target matches with mine. And those perfect scores are VERY hard to come by.

 

[Franklink]

Not sure what your intentions are, but they're not really a design that lends itself to hopping up in power much. Around 19-20fpe is pretty much what they were designed for.

I plan on plinking and shooting with buddies. There are a few in my area that are interested in FT so we may try that in the spring. One of my shooting buddies shoots blackpowder and is used to shooting from sticks and a bucket. So we may work on down tuning one of his pantheras or something and use it for more shots.

The rifle is coming set at 20 ftlb, though I wouldn't mind slowing it down and setting it for around the 12 ftlb limit.

Ok rifle is here in the house.... and WOW! I thought these rifles were heavier than what they are.

I have put an Element Helix on it right now as it has the 16x marked on the ring. Now comes the fun in getting it set up and zeroed and see what this thing can really do!

The build of the rifle is really nice on first inspection, and honestly there isn't much to the rifle. Over all a very simple looking rifle and very easy to use.

More to come once I get more time behind the rifle.

I believe it may have originally been called “ Simple Simon”

Awesome rifles, rock steady with 1500psi, cool!

Here she is, number 86 sitting at 20ftlb. Will find out next time I go to the range.

Already have a muzzle adapter on order, and am planning on making a cup for the hamster.

If any of you guys were closer I would say come shoot it!

Tim makes some pretty cool stuff, I've got an LD myself. Congratulations, looks like it's in great condition.

 

[Woogie_man]

Thanks Dana! I'm happy with it so far. Though with winter setting in, I am stuck with indoor shooting sadly

 

[pan60]

It's so unique as far as looks go. Looks like it could be used in a Star Wars movie it's so cool! Congrats and looking forward to some groups weather permitting.
