General Comments

I have only used the Falcon T-bird air rifle for one outing, and I find that the gun is as good as it looks (to me anyway).

The few small and annoying problems are that the refill port is very loose and can open on its own. I am using black tape to cover the hole. When I curl my finger around the trigger I tend to push the safety off without wanting to. The plastic magazines are very cheap looking, and the pellets are loose and rattle when walking along, but they do work very well. To reload the mag the cocking bolt has to be fully pulled back, (gun cocked) even when you don't want it to be. All these little faults can be worked around leaving a great, well balanced, accurate, powerful, light, and good looking gun.

    the mags may look cheap but thats because they are but they perform well and are simple and don't go wrong so who cares if they look cheap or not.

    Over a year later, and the Falcon T-bird gun is excellent. It is very consistent and powerful. I stuck to accupell pellets and got a new scope (AGS 4x16x56 Swat). I have had no problems, except for when I fell on it and cracked the stock. I got a mate who is a gun fanatic to repair it, or I would have had to spend £350 for a new stock.

    Hi

    I have a falcon T-Bird and mine is a single shot .22. I was told that i cant get a multishot for it, is this not the case and can you get a magazine or some other form of kit to covert it to a multishot?

    I spoke with John Cooper (founder of Falcon) at the 2007 Midland Game Fair about a multishot and he said it is only single shot and you cant convert or get an after market multishot magazine system??????

    Your comments/reply/help would be greatly appreciated

    Regards
