Hi,

Are there Taiyo Juki owners on here? It would be great to read some info/experiences about this illustrious Japanese brand.
Perhaps even a photo. There are a few old posts on this forum about the Bobcat, but their authors do not seem to be active anymore.

I saw a Deluxe a year or two ago. A beautifully made airgun with lots of cool features like a power adjuster wheel. Should have bought it.
Then there is the Bobcat, the Junior, the Kingfisher. They seem to be heavily inspired on the Rudi Merz Crosman CO2 designs (180, 160, 400).
But then perhaps a bit cooler?
Anyway, who knows this thread can provide some new information/insights
About the brand, the only thing I know is that it is owned by Miroku. No idea who designed the guns. The Japanese seem to like secrecy.

Regards, Louis
