AIRFORCE CONDOR .22 oR SUMATRA 500 CC .22
« on: December 02, 2009, 07:35:59 AM »
I WAS READY TO PRESS THE BOTTON FOR A SUMATRA BUT I STOPPED.  I DO NOT KNOW WHY..... BUT I DO NOT HEAR MANY

 PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT THIS RIFLE, SUMATRA 500 CC .22.


NOW I SAW THE CONDOR .22  ... AND I READ SOME ABOUT THIS RIFLE AND LOOKS TO BE GOOD.

WHAT I WANT?  ....   NO A LEMON

1. A PCP OVER 1100 FPS / POWER
2. LARGE NUMBER OF SHOOT PER FILL BETWEEN EACH RIFLE
3. LONGER DURABILITY OF THE RIFLE
4. ACCURACY OVER 200 FEET.


I KNOW THAT MANY OF YOU HAVE OR HAVE OWNED BOTH RIFLES.

PLEASE... JUST LET ME KNOW WHAT IS THE BEST FOR THE MONEY AND WHY?

THANKS IN ADVANCE.... THAT WILL BE MY CHRISTMAS GIFT AND I DO NOT WANT TO BE DISSAPOINTED ON CHRISTMAS.

Oh I want both! Paul just did a review of the Sumatra. The Condor has more power, by up to 15fpe. Condor costs more. Sumatra looks great, and has a 500cc tank. Condor has so many power settings, and 3 barrels. Both should be accurate to 200ft. Condor has 70fpe, Sumatra 55fpe (with the right pellet). Sumatra has adjustable cheek rest, Condor is synthetic. Love to hear what others say about them!

I went through the sane thing about a year ago . I bought the condor and have never regretted it . The Sumatra is a very good rifle that is accurate and made for hunting with a heavy trigger pull so if that is a issue then you better think twice about it . If you want a condor that is set up to shoot with out touching a thing then you should talk to these people. Marvin

I've got a Sumatra 2500, and one big thing you might consider is that it's a 6 shot lever action repeater. It's also built like a tank, I love my Sumatra a lot. I don't have the 500 cc version, which I imagine might be slightly heavier, mine is a rifle though. I've found my Sumatra to be more powerful than the official numbers with those same Eun Jin heavy pellets. Another consideration about the Sumatra, it's loud without some sort of moderator.

You could also get the .25 cal Condor for amazing power.
