    The all new 2017 Kalibrgun Cricket Mini Carbine : 1st review.

    2017 Kalibrgun Cricket Mini Carbine : 1st proper hands on mini review of the all new bullpup from Kalibrgun. Yes I got my hands on one before they are even available in most countries

    This is a sneak peak at the full production rifle and probably the 1st on the internet of the 2017 Kalibrgun Cricket V2 Semi Bullpup and I will follow it up in a week with the full warts and all review. So make sure you subscribe so you don’t miss the full review

    Been starting the review today on the Cricket Mini Carbine.

    Just done some stripping down.

    1. The barrel is now a totally free floating barrel and is about 3 inches shorter.
    2. The shroud is a full barrel length shroud instead of the last 1/3 shroud.
    3. The air tank appears to be the same diameter, but 3 inches shorter.
    4. The Wooden Stock Mini Carbine 2017 I have is 2 inches longer than the older carbine I have.
    5. Fill pressure is 300 bar stamped on the block.
    6. The safety is simply a metal sliding locking bar and is resetable and non auto.

    Not that I have heard or seen in the trade shows. It is a monte carlo type stock with cut outs and adjustable cheek / butt plates. Apparently Kalibrgun will do the stock in many coloured patterns, but I can't confirm that either.

    the mini carabine is nothing new really. a non english review is here http://alexxxus.cz/Kalibrgun-KBG-Min...e-Praha-Gun-cz or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zaZEwg2O2tk
    was it something like 10months ago.



    the mini carabine looks nice but i would still prefer the colibri, that one got delayed because of this one i am lead to believe.

    the US stock options are awsome.

    Does it group tighter than your cricket bullpup? Should do.

    Figure of speech / license.
    I refer to the older cricket linked as the Version 1 of the cricket carbine (ok it is not a mini and official is not V1 mini).
    My older one in the video is the Carbine version. The newer one 2017 is the official MINI carbine.

    My V1 review can be seen here with other videos on the rifle https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4vx8z9Nupw

    In the V2 Kalibrgun Cricket Mini Carbine, I will compare the new with the old.
