I have both the versions bought from Pyramydair. The first picture is of an older version of AR6 which is non-shrouded. The second picture you have posted is of the shrouded version as u can see. The older versions were stamped with the model name AR4 and AR6 to differentiate between 177 and 22 calibers.
the breech was simply marked only AR as it is common size. The 4 and 6 were stamped later on. The Koreans later on started using the laser printing which you see in the new shrouded version.

Some one who would take the pain of duplicating an already cheap Korean gun would also take the pain and make sure the lettering etc is also accurate and wont make such a mistake which a child can make out.

Come on Magestic say something on that.

Its simple and you also accept. Your brother got it by post not courier which he claimed later with a stupid story, custum wala said please carry it and where is the pump sir... and so on. Now you come with emails claiming it to have come by post. Hope the same are genuine and you will not later turn with boarding pass claiming to have brought it in baggage:) By the way claiming it has come .177 route... what you are trying to explain

Biren

if u ever deal with p.a. u must know that p.a. never shipps 5.5 mm air rifle to india,
so i ordered in name of usa base friend -its simple
than one freind brings it in india in baggae-its simple
i never said by post -its simple
i said imported by p.a.by this i mean bought by p.a. -its simple,
if i want to mislead some one by saying imported from p.a. i never ever stated it because it is not required,
this is not ordered by post and as i remember i never stated it this way,pls clarify where i mentioni t bring in india by post
i have tried my best to make it all clear ,if not enough let other think what they want

For me the gun looks like genuine. Best wishes for your sale. You have already mentioned your friend Mike bought it and came as a checkin baggage. The recipient address in US of A is Mike Melick one of the gun tuner who also runs his own store. So you mean to say now Mike (your friend)came all the way from America to India to deliver this gun to you? :roll:

Yep and incidentally it seems to be the same Mike Melick as well, at least they share the same address - http://tinyurl.com/2vobdbj :roll:

Anyhow, some unscrupulous persons have been illegally importing .22 cal air-rifles via post/ courier in connivance of some FedEx employees etc. Anyone buying from such person(s) is advised that if and when this racket is busted (which it will be eventually), the dealer will go to jail but also they (the buyers) may end up with the short end of the stick!

We have always and continue to try to keep such dubious people OUT of our FORUM - PERIOD!

I do know Yash but what has it got to do with my reply? Seems you have enough spare time on your hands even after running the new airgun forum that you have started?
