New to me: Talon/Condor
I have had several opportunities to get a Condor, but a couple feel through. Then I found one on auctionarms.com. This one had the Axiom Custom stock and forearm. With open sights and the scuba adapter.
All I can say is WOW. I thought my Talon SS was a tack driving fun gun. Little did I realize that the Condor is the bad-est of the the bad boys. This thing is without a doubt the Cat’s Meow. I have put the tri-rail on it and mounted a BSA Panther 2.5X10 scope. I am planning to put the sling swivels on it and can not wait to bust some bridge destroying evil pigeons. This will be later this afternoon.
To say I love my Airforce rifles, is like saying bread and butter are good, there just ain’t no doubt.
Even though I have now received my Daystate Harrier X2 and have on it a Bushnell Elite 4200, I can not say that that it is any better or more fun. Even my Rapid-7 will have to take a back seat to my Airforce rifles. My beloved FX-Cutlass is going to gather some dust while I bust some pigeon butt with my Airforce rifles.
My wife is loosing her mind, because I now walk around with my Talon SS or my Condor and just love saying “Say hello to my little friend”…. she says I look like and idiot, but dang I look so cool.
My 15 year old son has called dibs on the Talon SS because it is ambidextrous. He is a lefty. So most of my air rifles are correctly configured for right handed normal shooters… hahahhaha.
I will let you know how the operation “Feather Duster” goes this weekend.
Happy shooting,
Paul G.

Texas is the land of the MAGNUM rifles. So what I get is lots of laughing and poking fun at my “HIGH DOLLAR” BB guns.
Oh well, I have an FX CUTLAS-walnut .22 that came with rings, probe, and a BSA Hand-pump w/upgrade moisture remover that I found at a gun shop. It was marked “BB-GUN”. Needless to say I walked away a happy camper with my BB-GUN… hahhahaha. I can still hear the other patrons laughing at me and making jokes. Oh well, I can’t fix stupid, so let them laugh. I am laughing every time I take my Cutlas out for a shoot.
Now that I have my Talon-SS and my Condor, I reckon these others will get a well deserved rest.
To me there is nothing more relaxing and enjoyable than air rifles. They are just plain fun.
When I go up front with my Talon-SS, my neighbor walked over and asked what was I planning to do with that “ASSAULT RIFLE”. I just handed it to him and said it is a pellet rifle. The look on his face was priceless. People think pellet rifles are crosman 760 and daisy m880.
I just love my hobby and everyone on these boards have been just wonderful.
I am grateful to those who have answered my dumb questions and to those who have sold me stuff. Although my wife has a hit out for me and the sellers…. hahahaha just joking.
Well, I better get my spec-op gear ready for OPERATION FEATHER DUSTER. Here pigeon, pigeon….. come to Daddy.
Happy Shooting, God’s blessing to one and all. If this offends you. Oh well…. **** happens.

I live in Illinois – a very very gun unfriendly state. These Talons might look like an M16 at first glance. Here they would have the swat team at your house in about 3 minutes!!!

your lucky to be in TX.
My “B-B” gun exactly fits the area I use. Nearest house is a little over one third of a mile away. At that distance, my pellet would loose all its energy and fall harmless. It would not be safe with a real firearm. In fact it is illegal to shoot a long gun anywhere in this state except at a fireing range!!!
