IHP has changed its rear sight. Its not the same one which used to come some months back.

The look is pretty cool.
Black beauty , so to say.
Surely backsight is better than previous one.
Improvement is evident and welcomed.

I agree with Mr Briha for the "stock could have been given a matte finish & also the 'fore-end' extended to cover the break-barrel part of the gun" section.
Can we make it matte finish?

One more thing i noticed from the pic was that,
The end cap of the receiver, has been changed to a older model like end-cap,
It seems like metal not sure, and also it seems to be longer than the current plastic end-cap. (could identify from the length behind the cotter pins)
If it is metal, better any day than a cheap plastic end cap

I visited Aimco today and inspected the gun.
Stock colour is black made shiny ,in part with nice checkering in either side.
The sight is far better than old ones.
Weight seems same as earlier.
The breech seal is made of rubber,replacing old ones.
Back cover cap is made of synthetic.

Scope rail, auto safety etc would have been a nicer addition..

It is understood that they are in the process to come with built-in scope rail.
Betterment of trigger is also in their mind.

There is absolutely no alternative to hard work and IHP folks don't seem to understand it .People can see through this cosmetic surgery and stone age compared to precihole .I bought Orion and NX not because of the stock but the attention to detail and tech to back it up .

I completely agree. When we are waiting for preciholesports next surprise, IHP coming with a small change in look without much difference in performance is really disappointing.

Dear friends,
It is not fair to compare IHP air rifles ( cost Rs.5500/- ) with Precihole air rifles ( cost 11000/- ).
Precihole ARs may be far better but they cost just double the cost of IHP ARs. At Rs. 5500/- , IHP is providing a decent product. Please do not forget that , before the advent of Precihole ARs, Senior members like Brihcharan sir were able to achieve half inch groupings at 10 meters - in standing position , with IHP air rifle. In my humble opinion, IHP ARs are a boon for those who can not afford to shell out Rs. 11000/- for an Indian made AR.
Regards,
AbbRiz
