Just added a NEW GUN to my collection!
« on: May 13, 2010, 05:13:13 PM »


Hey everyone!

I just added the Beeman Kodiak X2 .177/.22 Dual Caliber to my collection. Went out to Spenceville Gun Range the past two weekends and boy this baby can FIRE...

It came with a 3-9x32 scope with mounts, and I added the bipod, flashlight & Laser. This gun is EXACTLY the same as the Savage Arms Enforcer Tactical Air Rifle. Except the X2 is imported by BEEMAN without the TAC gear. I just added all the TAC gear myself. Otherwise it is the exact same rifle.

1,000 fps @ .177 Caliber
830 fps @ .22 Caliber.

I am only shooting with the .22 caliber barrel. Highly accurate, but takes cocking effort of about 30-35 lbs, otherwise it is great. Using RWS SUPER-H-POINT .22 caliber pellets it hits my targets very hard; shatters clay targets nicely.







Rifle - Norica Goliath 88 Carbine .22 Caliber
Rifle - Beeman Kodiak X2 .177/.22 Dual Caliber
Rifle - Crossman Nightstalker .177 Caliber
Pistol - Magnum Research Desert Eagle .177 Caliber by Umarex
Pistol - Walther Nighthawk .177 Caliber .177 Caliber
Pistol - Gamo PT-80 .177 Caliber

Thanks Nathan!

My kids loved shooting the Norica Goliath but with so many short style carbine rifles in our collection, we decided to add a LONG STYLE Sniper Rifle.  This thing is 45 inches long and the softcase we bought was too short!  

Anyhow this rifle can shoot very far and fast.  I really am enjoying it.  As soon as I get pics of it at the gun range I'll add them.

Great looking air rifle...another "Evil Black Gun" to your great collection. heh heh

Btw, does clamping the bipod on the barrel affect the rifle's accuracy?  I've always read to let the barrel vibrate free for accuracy.

Cool Gun,
Maybe a dumb question, but does the laser and flashlight come in handy for anything, or more for show.

I know Shadow/Ed have the flashlight set-up....he uses that for his night-time hunts.  I don`t remember if he has the laser though...

Nice gun.  IMO attaching the bipod to the barrel creates a support at the attachmenet point, which in turn transfers reactive forces to the barrel, when firing, that was not intended to.  These forces may bend the barrel in the long run.
