Nice !!the rifle is just sweet

Yeah , Rich does an incredible job. He can tune his rifles with his kits so they act "regulated" !

 

[Dairyboy]

Man that looks great! I'm thinking of getting a cheaper backup gun for a loaner or something and have been looking at what Rich has to offer for awhile but haven't pulled the trigger

Well gentleman, she arrived and man is it gorgeous, the stock is COMFY!!!! , this little pew is very light, cant wait to scope it later maybe get a 25 yard sight in group later as well. It is shooting 615-625 fps over 5 shots , unregulated. I am super pumped.

Rich is a good guy , he does good work and the prices are warranted and not exaggerated either.

Man that thing looks awsome!

Thanks Mike! you need to get one!

CTAirgunner I blame you for getting me to take my Prod out of the safe and talking with Rich about converting it to a .20!
While playing with my 1720 I updated my Prod to one of Rich's stocks a few months ago but didn't really do anything with it because I was more interested in my .177 pistols. This thread forced me to call Rich and talk about converting it to .20. Bottom line is I will be sending it to Rich next week for conversion and tuning!

Oh Sorry I should’ve said I’m quoting Joe from Predator International that’s his saying

My first adult airgun in .20 was a Beeman R9 and my second was a Beeman R7 about 23 years ago. My newest .20 airgun is my Leshiy Classic (about 4 years old). I have been looking for a .20 magazine feed carbine for many years because I really like the .20 caliber. The main issue for .20 in a magazine feed airgun is the magazine. Fortunately Rich has convinced CARM to make a .20 magazine for the Prod. This is what pushed me over the edge to have my Prod modified plus Rich's reputation.

And on top of that, carm makes quality product just like Rich puts out quality air rifles.

BTW very jealous you have a Leshiy Classic, its on my list of rifles to own.

That’s my baby nothing like micro carbines. If you ever find one used don’t pass it up

Yes CARM makes quality magazines and single shot loaders. I have CARM magazines and SSLs for most of my airguns that he (Drako) makes them for.

I wish they made a sst for the marauder pistol

 

[fderry]

I asked Darko via email if he made or was going to make a SSL for the Prod and he replied he wasn't currently looking at making one. Maybe if he got enough requests he would reconsider.

Thank you for the link! Not sure I want a tray versus a loader like CARM makes. As I get older I find putting a pellet in a tray harder than when I was younger. I will contact the vender to see if he will make one in .20.

Well if I may be allowed to toot my own horn for just a brief moment. Not to take anything away from Rich for all his accomplishments and contributions but it was actually me that requested Darko to make the .20 cal Prod magazines back in January this year. To my surprise he agreed and about a month or so later I received them in February.

I know he has made them for years, but i felt like sharing my copy of rapid-70 bullpup. i really like it. the weight distribution feels much better. my aiming is better on this version. i am impressed with this pup, it looks practically factory to me. If you have read my posts before, you...

I apologize, I just assumed Rich had worked with Darko to get the magazines made for his .20 conversions.
