Anyone tried a TF 87?
« on: April 15, 2010, 12:35:15 AM »
Man that looks like a nice gun for 150.  Compasseco has them for 20% off until the end of the month.  I don't "need" another gun and in fact I'm more longing for one of those new Trail XLs.  However I'm so happy with my TF guns and the price is right! :)

Yea, though I walk through the garden in the shadows of pests,
I will fear no squirrel: For thou art with me;
thy scope and thy trigger, they comfort me.

I have one in .177. I LOVE it. It shoots H&N 10.65 at 920-930 fps. I have not done any long range shooting, but at 10 yards its shooting one holers. It is loud. I cant shoot it in the back yard. The only thing I dont like about it is the bear trap thing. I hesitated to buy it because of the original price, but the sale was to good to pass up. These Tech Force rifles far exceed my expectations. I also have 2 .22 89's. I just love these TF's.

I bought a TF87 as soon as they came out assuming it was an AR2000. Ended up being an AR3000. Regretfully, I really wanted the AR2000 as I already had my underlevers. I took it out to shoot before returning it, and put 20 shots through. I almost changed my mind about returning it. The only reason I did was I had a plan and needed to stick to it. The gun was heavy, but I think that contributed to its feel and accuracy. Accurate, smooth...like it'd already been tuned. It was hard to put it back in the mail, and I regret it. When I can, I'll be getting another one... I had the .22, and because of the power, I think that'd be the way to go. If you like your fingers you learn to love the anti-beartrap. just a really nice gun. I was out of my mind to send it back.

     â€¢ Cometa Fusion Star (Gene tuned) 12/10/09

     â€¢ Remington Vantage 1200 .177 8/22/09 (Gene tuned 1/6/10)
     â€¢ Daisy 953 (pneumatic) 8/02/08
     â€¢ Gamo Big Cat 2/5/10 (broken...free...maybe gas piston?!)
