PCP Taipan slash. Who’s behind it?

[Madeintheuk]

Not too long ago taipan came out with the vet 2. Now they’re offering a completely new platform that will be semi auto

Who is looking to get one?

I say if the taipan trigger, and ruggedness is there, and they’re not Uber expensive, I’ll be giving one a try!
Looking forward to its debut at IWA this year. Wish I could go see it in person.

It has my interest however the bottom line is the
bottom line .

Can’t afford another high end gun but it absolutely looks super interesting.

Ehhh… The Slash just doesn’t do much for me, to be frank. I just can’t and don't get all that excited about this kind of rifle. Nothing about it appeals to me. If it’s built anything like my Vet I, I’m sure it’ll be great. But for me? It’s kind of... whatever.
for those of you who get one I hope you enjoy it

Never liked simi auto PBs and that's carried over to the PCP. Only simi auto I ever had was a.22lr but everything else was a bolt,lever,or a wheel gun.

It depends on how the PCP market goes , The GKl pistols and the Huben rifle has opened my eyes up the the Semi auto stuff, Taipan can make some very good stuff, I have seen the rifle and it looks nice,,, The used gun market seems to be flooded ,

Wow, learned a lot about the Taipans, I got four guns I will never sell, Two 22 Mutants, There Bullpups and pretty well the best they can do 365 days a year is pellet on pellet at 50 yards,,, The other two are a 25 caliber veteran B/P,, and a veteran 22 B/P,, Not a big fan of semi auto pellet guns , Until I got my Huben 22 caliber Rifle , Then I bought a 25 GKl,
Then a GKl 22 caliber, then a 25 caliber GKl with the KOOL works for shorty, I am hooked you can go through a tin of pellets faster than a air leak.... The Hubens are cool and neat and accurate , BUT there not built with the quality of my TAIPANS

They Duck and keep on Machining.

 

[pan60]

LOL the link was for the information regarding where they are made : )

The production eventually moved to the Czech Republic to make things easier. Here, we are carrying out 100% of rifle assembly with strict quality control and accuracy. Taipans are dispatched from our headquarters in Hlučín (Czechia), where they are also serviced.

I like it. I predict it'll work much better then an L2.

 

[Woogie_man]

Looks like an L2 that doesn't fold in half. Really interested to see what the price is on this one and to see how it performs.

It looks awesome and the specs are great. I'm sure it's out of my price range but can't wait to see the reviewers show it off on their youtube channels!

 

[Reeg]

Some video taken at IWA... unfortunately the audio is not in English but there's some good closeups of both models.

It even *looks* like it's 2 lbs lighter than an L2. I'd have to have that full mlok hand guard. Just because.
