    Edgun Morana don't know if it's in production.

    Have they started producing a multishot version yet?? I love the look, style, and accuracy of these guns, but no multishot that i've seen.

    Sorry to rain on anyone's parade over this but the truth is that even at FAC level it isn't as good as the Rapid or any of the other leading makes. I tried one at Bisley and was underwhelmed to say the least and that was BEFORE I heard how much the chap had paid for it. Then I was totally shocked. Honestly I think I'd rather have an Air Arms S410 in FAC than an Edgun. They are RIDICULOUSLY expensive. The only positive thing to say is that you would almost certainly be the only person in your club who owns one.

    The sad reality of it is though nick, it's like rapids, out of the box they are not the best rifles for the money, but if you tune a rapid, or get it tuned by someone, they are extremely good! It's the same as the edguns, not the best out of the box but tuned! Whole different ball game, i like watching the ted's holdover channel on youtube, he has a tuned edgun matador, it is a supergun.

    Hi,

    I own some Air Arms, Theobens and an Edgun R3 Matador Long in.25.

    Choosing which one is the best is a very personal thing. To me, I think, it's my Theoben Rapid MkII in .25.

    I thought I should come back on this thread which I revisited when i did a search on Edgun.
    I must confess that i am warming to the design. It appears to be well made and is certainly very compact. From the video clips on Youtube it also looks accurate. It is clearly VERY expensive and in legal limit I wouldn't consider it but if an FAC .22 or 25 came up I might well give it a go.
    For the same reason I might well consider one of the Kalibrguns as well.
    I recognise however that the chances of a FAC one coming up at a price that makes any sense is very small.
