Anyone have any opinions or experience with the Eun Jins? I'm looking at the  Sumatra 2500 Carbine for my next PCP.

Loud.  Needs a LDC.  :)

Dave, I owned a Sumatra .22 about 3 years back. All I can say is it was very powerful and could shoot 30gn pellets at around 900 fps and if I remember correctly it tipped the scale at around 60 + ft/lbs. The finish on them is extremly well done. The bluing is IMO excellent and the wood superb. They are heavy and loud.

Good Luck
Gene

Like my full sized rifle (5mm).  Dialed down, it makes a nice plinker. Dialed up (and you get very few full power shots at max.) it makes a fine long range hunter (24gr. EJ pellets at 1030fps).  Accuracy has been outstanding, fit and finish is very good,and it's never had a problem cycling/feeding anything you can fit into it's cylinder-magazine.

Down side:
Are way past loud at full power.  An LDC is a nice addition, but the Sumatra uses an odd sized threaded muzzle that not all LDC makers deal with.  If you want to be quiet at anything near 40-45 foot pounds of energy (or above) plan on a pretty big LDC.

That stupid engraving....seems someone brought a pointer to a duck hunt.
