The Point When Things Got Expensive

don’t get me wrong. The Talon is awesome but there’s just something about a single shot in a compact that rubs me the wrong way.
 
Not sure if a Notos, or get one of the Talon P carbines from Air Force....
I've got the Air Force Recon shrouded as it was my first PCP rifle. And I have a customized Notos that's killer. Single shot was just not for me so the Recon barely gets used. And Notos is much cheaper and has a magazine instead of single shot. Just my 2 cents. Either way enjoy!

The reports I've seen all say use the single shot tray for maximum accuracy with the Notos. And it seems like a lot of people end up having to buy aftermarket mags to get reliable ones for their Notos.
Then again, I am apparently more lucky than some folks here with my airgun purchases....
 
My most recent purchase was the Zulus HD 5-20R Day/Night digital with laser range finder and ballistic calculator. Expensive yes but still only about half of what some scopes cost and half the weight also. Best purchase I have made for my PCP's. I love this thing. It is my first electronic scope and I think it is amazing, worth every penny.

Went with Maple products Canada mega mags 15 shot for mine. All cycling problems eliminated and still under $300.00 for total package not counting scope. Amazing air rifle!
 
Early last year I decided to dive into the world of pcp, having previously only owned springers. Didn't want to go overboard money wise so picked up a gamo venari, which came with more or less everything I thought I needed, scope, bipod and silencer, and also bought myself a hand pump off amazon. I then decided I needed some night vision capabilities, so added a nv add on scope and nv lamp kit, So much for not going overboard, changed the scope, bipod and silencer that came with the gamo pretty much straight away, and now also have a compressor.😁
Couple of weeks ago got myself a BRK ghost and all the bits that go with it and also have a laminate grip and cheek piece set on order, and the arken zulus 520r scope on top. Not sure if airgunning is a passion or an addiction. 😀

gamo venari..

Had to go look that one up. Looks to be a gamo "EU" gun not for the USA market or sold under another name ( common with gamo eu vs USA stuff)

Anyway looks good to me ..

Very nice setup! Congrats on your purchase.
 
I thought is was go from budget sub $300 PCP and then leap straight to $1500+ pcp. ( And expensive fancy mail-order slugs) that ask what's the best compressor to fill a gun up ..🥴...

And that’s why I stay away from the Dark Side!
I will just stick to my springers.

Absolutely loving the Ghost, it's very well balanced and solidly built. Obviously depending on optics, the gun itself is very accurate and so far, doesn't seem too fussy pellet wise.
I have normal glass on my other rifle which is great for bench target shooting, but wanted to keep the bulk down for small game hunting, hence the bullpup and Zulus. It's a great little day/nv scope, has a LRF built in as well as a IR lamp and a ballistic calculator. I'll be considering an upgrade in May as Arken will be releasing a multi spectral version with thermal and IR, here in the UK.

I'm the UK so guess it's EU only, for the money it's a pretty good deal, it has a bsa cold forged barrel, the accuracy is on par with rifles that cost far more.
