Titan Bearcat

[gingernut]

Just bought myself one of these for Christmas.
Its .177 and a quickfill adapter has been fitted. VGC and shoots well.
As usual I bought on looks and know nothing about these guns.
Can I have your opinons and tips please Gents. Thanks.

[mickanles]

great guns, bought one last year in .20, small,light and spot on.

Designed by John Bowkett and available from 1989 to 1993 when Titan went under and became Falcon.
Same action as the classic Falcon FN12, does yours have a sloping breech?
Very well made rifles with a Walther barrel making them super accurate.

I have reproduction Titan stickers available to any Titan owner free of charge, email or pm me for details.

A Titan without it's stickers could be mistaken for a Falcon

Ive just seen a picture of a Titan MPT on here and thats what Ive bought. Is that a Bearcat or another type of rifle?

one of the lads at the club has one in 30cal. lovely little rifle to shoot. dont get loads of shots, but very accurate. it would be nice to get hold of a 20cal one myself. classic little rifle.

The MPT is a different animal all together.
Same airtube and barrel legnth BUT the trigger is moved 3 inches forward and the action sets further back in the stock making it a semi ballpup, top that with a killer thumbhole stock and a match trigger and you have one of the most desirable Titans ever produced.

Congrats,

Thanks chaps.
Westy on here has an MPT and I found a picture of his, which is the same as the one I bought as a Bearcat. He PMd me to confirm.
So I have a mint .177 Manitou Pistol Thumbhole.
Just need some decent weather to go with it!

Got to agree, I've got a .22 version in a wlanut stock with a special silencer, its accounted for many bunnies, I wouldn't be without it.

[Arch.Stanton?]

Have been looking for a .25 Falcon [ but as swops as I am brassic , but have some decent airguns to use as bargaining chips ] ......heard tell of a guy offering my local shop a Titan Manitou in .25 .
Didn't think they did .25 but from above post see one has been done in .30 !

What ammo does it use ' Gasman 1 ' - ball or pellet and how does your friend size his pellets (presumably .25) ?

If anyone knows the whereabouts of a .25 [ or a .30 ! ] Titan , or even Falcon that someone will trade as swops for my custom Co2 airrifle / co2airpistols then ....

Bearcat pic in sig.

[gingernut]

Thanks POK. Mine is deffo MPT. Your pic confirms.

First shoot today. Very impressed by this rifle. It is so easy to handle. Really good for standing shots.
I swopped its little silencer for an HW one which made it very quiet.
Great hunting gun. If I ever went hunting.
