I don't need one but Umarex has one for $165 that is a demo. Does come with the scope. That's about $100 off street price. If this were .25 I'd snatch it up but I don't need any more .22 even if this does approach 1000fps(?) in .22!
Someone buy this before I have to...
Here's the link:

An even better deal is the Mendoza RM 600 for $69! That's about $100 off street price too! And they have .17 and .22!
Argh, how can I pass that up?
-
Wish the Medoza had the peep sight. That would be a fun one to play around with. I'm thinking that, with the right lubes, you might be able to get one to diesel consistently. Oiling, as recommended, seems to be counter-productive.

DANG...somebody buy my Gene tuned TF89!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That Falcon setup looks sweet. Not a Blizzard but sweet anyway. (http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-laughing.gif)

wow, I'm so tempted to buy it! I have wanted a .22 caliber air rifle for a while! and that seems like a nice one. I like the camo also.
-
You need it! (that is what I tell myself anyway). :D
-
Hey Guy's Is the RWS 600 ,a good deal? & they only have it in 117 now. $69.00 + 12.00 SHP.= $81.00,
are they a high mantiance gun?
Has any one got one ?
just looking??
-
Does anyone have one of these and can comment on the gun as a whole?
-
It's a Mendoza, not RWS. Search here and elsewhere on the Mendoza 600 (or 2800 repeater). That's a good price as they are about $165 new from PA.
-
DID ANYONE GET THIS 22,?
WALTHER FALCON OR THE RWS MANDOZA 600?

wlather falcon hunter if you can handle and operate a larger airgun. i called umarex today and they had no .22 walther falcon hunters when i called - had a .25 cal falcon hunter and some .22 walther talon magnums, though. i got a .22 walther talon magnum. i had the previous version. it was the most powerful gun i've had. you may be able to get a good mendoza, but i tried twice.
-
I was going for the RWS Mandoza 600 ??
then Red feather put me strate, !!
it's a MADE in Mexico LOAD rimfire gun .
& the Dieseling is a big turn off .
WHY they put RWS with a Mandoza RM600 is ??
Sales gimmic?
I'm in the city Austin & a AG that sounds like a 22Mag, would not go over with the Police here !
It's in the job decrp' To use there Tazer 2 times a
Day!! :) just for the fun of it.
-
the Mendoza won't sound like a .22 rifle
I have one. It's an accurate rifle, has nice metal work, a nice trigger, a really nice stock and feels really nice to hold and shoulder and a pretty good shooter. However,,,,,, the "controlled dieseling" is a factor in keeping the fps up. Without adding the chamber lube the fps will drop down into the 650 - 700 range. It will keep consistent fps levels but they'll be much lower than "spec".
With the lower fps level it kinda makes a nice lower powered "backyard" pest shooter. Add the chamber lube and you're back up in the 900's.
I'm glad I have one in my collection but even though I like it I don't think I'd get another one.....

I did not need to hear that !!
now that I talked too Mike & got a B12 on the way!!
Just to ask did you get a 22 ,or 117?
they only have 117 on Monday!
But why is My Deseling Quest a 22 Mag sometimes?
& other times it Quiet like normal?
not had it apart yet but soon!!
Thank Jeff for the input on the Mandoza..
-
Ron,,, my Mendoza is a .177
As for your Quest..... there's a difference between "dieseling" and "detonation". The dieseling is trace amounts of oil in the barrel burning off.... detonation is oil/lube igniting in the piston chamber from the heat and pressure..... sounds like you may have excess oil/lube in that quest that periodically is getting into the piston chamber....

THANKS JEFF,
SO i NEED TOO TAKE HER APART?
MAT BE A BAD SEAL? AT WORK FROM THE START-
IT WOULD DO THIS?
& DANN IT THEY STILL HAVE THEM IN 117!!!!

A tear down, deburr and lube certainly wouldn't hurt...... and while you're in there you can take a look at the seal and see if it's damaged....
