Walther Falcon Hunter .22 CHEAP!

[larspawn]

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.

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.

[atchman2]

You need it!  (that is what  I tell myself anyway).

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??

[Schmidty25]

Does anyone have one of these and can comment on the gun as a whole?

[RedFeather]

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.

[longislandhunter]

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..

[longislandhunter]

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....
