Anyone seen this yet. It's the same whisper model that's been out for a while but they got this new style of stock. I think it looks pretty sexy for an airgun. |

It looks like it could be in "Alien".
Allthough I like tactical, I'm not sure if I like this. If the stock had just one hole, it'd be different.
Looks like they went all Recon on that rifle...

| It will sell well in the Klingon market. |

Isn't it Klingon-ish?
And on that bombshell: Qapla'! |

Or Klingonesque, or Klingoniferous, or Klingonean, or Klingonous.
Which comes from middle archaic Klingon, meaning "death to cylindrical metal food or beverage containers."
I think the muzzle brake (silencer, since it has baffles) is oddly shaped because it is an integral part of the gun, and cannot be adapted to any other application. That way they get around the problem of permits and registration for a silencer - it is a unique, inseparable part of an airgun, which is not regulated.[/quote] |

Because "death to cylindrical metal food or beverage containers." stands equal to succes, Qapla' is more modernly, and generally used to wish someone succes. |

| I like it because it is a reflection of airgun evolution. It's got that futuristic stock, a noise dampener, and a scope and a bunch of tac stuff. I know if I was a kid I'd definitely want that model. Hell, I want it now. But I've promised myself no more guns...not for a good while any way. |

| It might be a different story for me if it was camouflaged or something. |

Exactly. It would need a scope and some other gizmo's too though.  |
