As an example of overcoming adversity, Karoly Takacs has few peers. He was part of Hungary’s world champion pistol-shooting team in 1938, when an army grenade exploded, crippling his right hand. Ten years later, having taught himself to shoot with his left, he won two gold medals in the rapid-fire class.

Oops Sorry, did not respond earlier.....

The webpage does not say it is springer rated....Look at Hawke MAP or Leapers Tru Strength instead. The Hawke with MAP6/MAP12 reticle would be perfect.......PM Pratik. He will have more data to share.....

Extremely off topic but there's tuning service for Ferrari too. And I say again, the rifle can be tuned. I mailed my criticism of the rifle to doc already, hope he'll take some action.

Quote Big Daddy.....
The IHP is perhaps the best gun available locally (I use the word "is" since the SX – 100 is still to hit the market fulltime). However, that does not guarantee the IHP to be the best forever.The guys who have reported this rifle are people who have studied springers. Just remember, this is not some run off govt. project. Hard earnings of individuals (including their reputation) are invested in this project. I am sure Fantumfan and Brichacharan will second me in saying the brain behind this is perhaps The Authority of Springers in the country known to many simply as "Dr." :agree:

Hi Guys,
> To all those who want to know as to whether "SX 100" can be tuned, I wish to know...
1. What is the necessity to know whether it can be 'Tuned' even before you purchase / own it? :roll:
2. Given that one wants to tune it - what for?
a) To increase its velocity?
b) To increase its accuracy?
c) I don't know what else does one want to tune an AR for?
> The manufacturer has to conform to 'Forensic' rules, that an AR should conform to a maximum of 12fpe only, otherwise it cannot be sold without a licence.
> Hence the manufacturer has conformed to this statutory requirement and made the ARs to suit this mandate.
> If anyone attempts to tune it to give the AR more velocity / power, it amounts to contravening the Forensic Rules.
> In my considered opinion those who 'Tune' it to get more velocity / power will do so - at the most by changing the spring assembly (spring + rear guide + top hat + seal). Nobody is going to tamper with the piston or barrel, because there is nothing else that is to be tuned & nobody to my knowledge is competent enough to do it (except a few handfull who are capable to do it & they do it personally for themselves)
> Even world renowned (imported tuning kits) consist of only the Spring / Rear Guide / Top hat & Seal!!!!
> Please note & be advised that every aspect of "TUNING" has been taken care at the manufacturing stage itself.
> Hence I repeat "Tune" the AR at your own peril - I personally wouldn't advice it!
> To end this discussion - Here is some Home Truths...
1. The first ever SX 100 in 0.22 cal to leave Precihole Sports is now in my possession :D
2. I have shot over 200 pellets of different brands / weights / construction (Local & Imported)
3. The AR (ORION) shoots 1/4" groups at 30ft with open sights.!!!!
4. Windage & Elevation in the Rear Sight have been adjusted to suit pellet weights.
> The position adopted for shooting was "Hand held & Knee rested".
> If I had used a scope & used a bench rest - I would have got "Hole in Hole" groups - which I did when I tested the AR at the manufacturer's factory with imported JSB 15.2gr pellets!!!
> The cocking is smooth combined with excellent shot cycle timings.
> The trigger pressure is a crisp 3.25lbs - ideal for sports shooting - can be adjusted to lower pressure for match shooting.
> Full function automatic safety feature.
> I'll post some pictures next week as I am travelling till next week end.
Till then - :cheers:

if we group order can we not get a good discount?
i am from mumbai .
i have the quotation from the manufacturer
if we buy 6 rifles the retail price minus the taxes and octroi would be 1000 rs cheaper than the market rate, for 12 rifles it would approximately be 1200 rs.

if we order it from thane then we would end up saving on the OCTROI :mrgreen: .
if any one is intrested to group buy we should get together.

Brihaji, Me a knife guy, have no understanding/interst in guns or airguns for that matter. Had a little Tommy .177 in school, that was it.

But must say, the passion and perseverence it must have taken to convert this into reality and make this accessible to the average middle class consumer is truly truly commendable. Heartiest congratulations :clap:

Now please start taking some interest in knives as well :mrgreen: :mrgreen: , who knows we may have our own world class cutlery giving the likes of Chris Reeves and Rick Hinderers of the world a run for their money :cheers: :cheers:

P.S: And this thread reminded me of the Behram Dhabar and Thar Bashing at the Team BHP Forums.. :lol:


I'll quote Theodore Roosevelt here

" It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

brihacharan,
Are you sure the trigger pull can be adjusted?
I read in the official website that only the creep can be adjusted not the pull. For me anything over 2lbs of trigger pull on a match rifle is heavy.
