Kral Puncher NP-02

[WILBA]

had a go of my m8s and i was seriously impressed. i could fire the rounds off just as fast as with my skan r32. if they solve the crowning problem these guns are amazing for the price

Of the four I know of (two mine and two club members/friends with one) non have suffered from any crowning problems. Could it have been a 'Friday gun' ?

Partly on the basis of what I've read here and from other reviews (And having seen Lloyd from BAR award it under 500 quid airgun of the year) I've ordered one. Sportsguns of Cardigan will be delivering it next weekend.

Can't wait.

Now I need to decide if the BSA R-10 becomes my dedicated NV rifle and the Kral my go to gun or the other way round.......

The way I personally view the Kral is that it just simply works, and works well i might add. The trigger takes some getting used too, and I cannot adjust mine as good as Jonse'ys no matter how many times I try. Overall and considering the price, it is a perfectly useable and accurate gun. Far better accuracy wise than the Kral I had a few years ago definitely. It would make a great field gun.

ordered one of these in.22 from McAvoy guns just waiting for them to get some back in stock. I know its a never ending question but what mount/scope combo are people using? going to be putting a Weihrauch mod on it (about £48 from BAR)
Will JSB heavies be the pellet of choice in a .22 aswell?
Hopefully it will be here this week.

hello, am thinking to get one in .177, has anyone found major faults where they had to send back or just the usual for a rifle that is made on a budget, cheers

I had a bad one ,, trigger was horrendous,, I also had a couple of leaks ,there’s a pipe linking the bottle which had some sort of nut as a fitting I had to have a complete new tube made to stop it leaking ,when it was working apart from the trigger it was reasonably accurate with jsb exact heavies in 177 also the bottle at the rear is used as a stock but it’s quite long and I found it too long for me when I put a jacket on,personally I wouldn’t buy another one

Yes there is, of course, far better pcp rifles on the market but a multi shot with two magazines? (extra magz - £30.) Instantly adjustable power? Hard case? Threaded for silencer? Large shot capacity? For less than £300?

The trigger is adjustable and while I agree quality varies, the trigger on my .177 isn't as good as on my .22, its still passable. I dont find the reach to pull that bad personally but some in my club have had to use step back mounts.

Yes there IS better pcp but better value?

Mine's crap

Arrived last weekend but today was the first opportunity I had to try it out.

At the same range my R-10 is making same hole groups the NP-02 is grouping about 2" (at 20 yds) in calm winds rested on a bean bag.

I've cleaned the bore, tried Bis Mags, 3 sizes of JSB Exacts, AA Field, Falcon Accuracy plus, H&N and more and it shotguns. With and without moderator.

I'm getting horizontal stringing. The crown looks OK to me.

Gutted.

My .177 did this indoor, indoor, rested at 30 yards. Silencer, JSB Exacts straight out of the tin. Nowt brilliant but I feel passable.

been thinking about one of these for a while , but the absolute nightmare i had with the puncher breaker put me right off
