I wanted to take a minute to recognize Tony at Talon Airguns after recently purchasing my RTI Arms Mora II in .30 caliber from him.

I currently own four FX air rifles, so I’m accustomed to high-end PCP rifles and went into the Mora II with fairly high expectations. I have to say, though, when I received this rifle I was blown away. The fit and finish on the Mora II are like nothing I have experienced with an airgun before. The machining, materials, tolerances, and overall feel of the rifle are simply next level. You really have to get one in your hands to appreciate it.

But as impressed as I am with the Mora II, I’m equally impressed with Tony and Talon Airguns. Tony's customer service went above and beyond anything I have experienced buying an airgun. He took the time to answer my questions, kept communication personal, and made it clear that he cared about me being happy with the rifle rather than simply making a sale.

I don't say that lightly. I've purchased a number of high-end airguns and dealt with several dealers, and Tony earned my trust and my future business.

The RTI Mora II .30 is an incredible rifle, and dealing with Tony made the entire experience even better.

Thank you, Tony. You have a customer and a friend in Tennessee.

I just purchased the RTI P3 bundle in .22 (and added a .30 barrel for good measure.) Tony could not have been more professional. He answered all of my questions thoughtfully, and helped with a supplemental order I made to combine shipping costs.

The quality of this piece is akin to the fine european pb guns I own, and the best part was the rifle came FULLY TUNED and ready to shoot. The scope is mounted, level and zeroed. The barrel came clean; what a concept. All accessories packaged nicely. And the proof is in the signed tune card autographed by Tony A.

I really appreciate the service, and am happy to get the added value of the service I received from Talon Airguns, instead of getting a box off the pallet and a $10 card that says the thing held air overnight. Thank you Tony; you are an A+ seller and we shall do business again!

Would like to send a huge thank you to TalonTunes for getting this ready really quick.
I seen the Mora 2 was out and sent Tony some questions last Sunday morning knowing I wouldn’t hear from him until Monday or possibly Tuesday.
As I was getting ready for work I said heck with it I’ll just order it. My company loves me enough to give me money every 2 weeks.

So I ordered one before I left for work. With a note Saying I was planning to go out of town Thursday or Friday and was wondering about when I could expect it

Went to work as usual. Was beating and banging around on my front end loader and my phone rings. Yep you know who was.
Had a wonderful conversation with him. He was in his shop seen my questions and seen my order and called me.

He actually tuned my gun and got it ready to ship and did this on a Sunday.

Thank you Tony!!!

PS.

Ordered a Uragan 3 .25 700mm from Talon Monday evening, received it yesterday, doesn't get much faster than that.
This Uragan is the most accurate PCP I have owned/shot, it really lives up to the reputation.
The guys at Talon were so great about answering all the questions I had before the purchase.
One happy customer here, THANKS!

I already own an earlier version of the Talon-P that was customized by Talon Airguns. It is a fantastic little carbine. I got the upgraded version from Tony a few days ago. I had some concerns with the safety and the trigger but with a few drops of oil, the rifle is getting a good break-in.

It makes no difference to me but I learned that they do tune the trigger with their trigger spring and disable the automatic safety. Like I said, it makes no difference to me but we should always have the gun on safe until ready to shoot.

With that said, they did a great job with the trigger. Smarter men than me don't like automatic safeties. If you are one of them, then you are in good company with this airgun.

I didn't measure the pull weight but it does break clean and crisp and when it's expected.

They replace the OEM hammer with their hammer as well. I'm not sure of the physics involved but it's an obvious improvement the way it shoots.

The target that came with the rifle showed a 5-shot group about 1/4" CTC at 30 yards.

As tuned from Talon Airguns, I shot a 20 shot string with the 25.39 grain JSB pellets with the velocity readings below.

Low: 743.0 FPS
Average: 874.5 FPS
High: 952.5 FPS
Extreme Spread: 209.5
Standard Deviation: 70.3

The first ten shots produced better velocities, extreme spread and standard deviation. That's good if you only want a 10 shot group with an average of 48 FPE. I wanted to get 20 good shots out if the airgun like I have with my older Talon-P.

So by the end of the day, I got the following results with a 20 shot string shooting the JSB Match Diabolo pellets weighing 25.39 grains.

The other pellets that I experimented with were the Predator Polymag, H&N Baracuda Hunter and the H&N Hornet. As you can see in the photo of the rifle with the targets, the airgun was producing decent 20 shot groups at 25 yards.

The H&N Baracuda Hunter pellets were a bit of a disappointment. They shoot better out of my older Talon-P. The JSB pellet produced the best groups.

The ultimate goal of this airgun is pest elimination; primarily groundhogs and raccoons. I will be refining the zero at fifty yards and would like to use either the polymags or hornets for the hunting load. The pellet should be able to penetrate a racoon's skull from that distance.

So I will need to conduct some penetration tests with either 2 X 4's or 3/4 inch plywood. I don't want to spend money on ballistic gelatin.

In my tests with the older Talon-P the H&N Baracuda Hunter pellets went clear though cans filled with corn beef hash at 50 yards. With that said, I'm open to suggestions.

Overall, I give the customized Talon-P 5 stars. I really like the AR-15 pistol grip and the M-Lock handguard. The customized internals really make a difference with shooting compared to the stock Talon-P.

I almost forgot to mention that the optic is the Hawke 4X scope with high UTG rings. Given the distance that this gun will be shot, 4 power is all that's needed. It shoulders well, scope lines up with the eye for an extremely crisp and clear image. That's pretty good for a scope that costs about $110. By the way, I have several of these scopes on my springers and they hold up really well.

I think that this scope if the perfect complement to this airgun. If you are looking for a simple airgun that's light, maneuverable, shoulders quickly and budget friendly, you cannot go wrong with one that's customized by Tony.

2nd purchase from Tony and couldn't be more satisfied. Very Professional service with fastest delivery. I ordered on Tuesday @ 10:00 am and received my new gun in pristine condition Wednesday at noon the very next day. I do live in the same state but seriously, Tony don't F around. I would have no second thoughts buying from him a 3rd time.

"The Taipan Slash complete package was the best choice I've could've made. Everything you need minus the Ammo. This was my second purchase from Tony! All I can say is he's the MAN!!! Couldn't been a better experience. Wanted to know my needs and expectations, and boy did he deliver. Money well spent!!!!!"

Bought a new Katran N series
Fast, great service. Called to let me know what was going on. Asked if I needed anything else.. awesome. Will be back.

Tony was able to source a hard to find item for me. 5

service. Thank you!!

I recently had the pleasure of dealing with Tony at Talon Airgun, and I couldn't be more impressed with their customer service. From the moment I reached out with questions about their products, Tony was responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to helping me find exactly what I needed.

The ordering process was smooth, communication was excellent, and the level of support I received exceeded my expectations. Tony tuned my Taipan slash to my liking and upgrade my shipment right before the weekend.

I highly recommend Talon Airgun to anyone looking for quality products backed by exceptional customer care. I will definitely be a returning customer.
