The camo one is cool as well. Is it really 1200FPS in .22? or is that a typo? Prob be banned in CANADA with that Bull Barrell. I'm starting to think your right about the no real guns in Canada thing...   Posted: Sun Jul 05, 2009 3:03 pm sniper Silver Status Member Joined: 28 Nov 2008 Posts: 3752 Location: Star, Idaho 1200fps no. almost always BS. these numbers usually mean 15fpe in either cal. low 700's in .22/14.3 . high 800's in .177/7.9. i'll wait for the reviews and maybe put it on my wish list for next year. _________________ I believe in gun control, If there's a gun around I want to be controlling it.......   Posted: Sun Jul 05, 2009 4:39 pm aircube Veteran Member Joined: 02 May 2009 Posts: 261 I wonder what retail will be on the carbon model? Pretty pricey i'm sure, but with a carbon stock and a gar ram it should be extremely high quality. I hope Crosman has done some modifications with their break barrel hinge system on these new models.   Posted: Sun Jul 05, 2009 4:55 pm sniper Silver Status Member Joined: 28 Nov 2008 Posts: 3752 Location: Star, Idaho http://www.pyramydair.com/p/Crosman-npss-Nitro-Piston-Short-Stroke-Digital-Camo-air-rifle.shtml _________________ I believe in gun control, If there's a gun around I want to be controlling it.......   Posted: Sun Jul 05, 2009 5:34 pm aircube Veteran Member Joined: 02 May 2009 Posts: 261 Wow, thats not bad at all. I wonder if the stock is acctualy all carbon. For that price I doubt it somehow.   Posted: Tue Jul 07, 2009 11:54 am dummyracer36 Senior Member Joined: 21 Sep 2008 Posts: 723 Location: St. Louis, Missouri its not an actual carbon fiber stock.... its a carbon-look dip print... like the camo _________________ "not tonight dear, i have a race in the morning"   Posted: Tue Jul 07, 2009 12:37 pm Rogerflat Silver Status Member Joined: 03 Jan 2008 Posts: 2051 Hopefully its below 1100 fps so it stays under the sound barrier. No point in reducing the sound of the rifle, if the pellet goes super sonic. I'm curious about the reviews as well, but it looks like its a winner. _________________ I done been assisted by the trees and rivers.

That'll be the day when I have to use a heavy .22 cal pellet just to stay sub-sonic. My talon can't even do that. _________________ I done been assisted by the trees and rivers.

RIIIIIIIGHT. try 680-690/14.3. you need more power than that? _________________ I believe in gun control, If there's a gun around I want to be controlling it.......   Posted: Sat Nov 07, 2009 3:30 pm AirGunEric Site Admin Joined: 20 Jan 2007 Posts: 6930 Location: "Out There" So- has anyone actually bought the NPSS and can give some info on it? _________________ ` I'd say "I care."

I am still playing! today was the first time to get it out in the day light I don't have a crony and couldn't guess as to the speed but so far I like the rifle I did get it sighted in and with it not being broke in and me pulling the trigger I am getting 3/4" groups at 25 yards. Plus today was a bit windy, just my luck! I haven't played with differant pellets. so far I have been using Crosman premier hollow points and Crosman pointed, both seem to shoot about the same crosman NPSS     Air Gun Home Forum Index » General Air Gun Questions and Topics You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum All times are GMT - 5 Hours   Page 1 of 2   Goto page 1, 2  Next All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First  Select a forum Main Forums----------------AirGunHome Q&AGeneral Air Gun Questions and TopicsPicture GalleryTarget Shooting: Casual, Fun and CompetitionHunting, Pest Control, Varminting People/Events/Airgun Issue Discussion----------------Introduce YourselfThe BS TopicClubs/Events/Regional/Political Airgun Issues Maintenance, Modification and Reviews----------------RiflesPistolsAntique, Collector and Novelty AirgunsBB GunsPellets/AmmoOpticsAccessoriesAirgun Smithing Buy, Sell or Trade Forums----------------For SaleWant to Buy   Note: If you are seeing "Please enter your username and password to log in."
