Falcon FN19 Raptor Mk2 Skelton. Review

Overall Rating

Light weight, Good looks, Beautiful Stock, No recoil.

Did not ship with Quick-fill adaptor - had to purchase separately for approx. 32.00 quid.

Purchased (imported) in May 2002 in .22 Cal FAC,the gun has continued to impress each time I take it out. It is very accurate and leaves me with great confidence in every shot I take. It takes 16 shots (2 mags) to reduce the cylinder pressure from 3000 psi to 2000 psi, after which the accuracy starts to fall off. For my type of shooting, this is fine - I'm never far from base camp and the filling tank. The gun shoots 16 gr. JSB pellets at 840 fps (approx 25 ft lbs), which is plenty of hitting power for crows etc at 50 yards. The shot trajectory intersects the scope line at 10yds and 50yds, and is 1/2" high at 32 yards. This setup guarantees an accurate shot anywhere within those distances.(May not be the same for 12 ft lb guns). All in all, the Falcon is a very impressive airgun that seems to improve with use.

  Gary, interested to know how you determined the crossover with the scope line. Trial and error having zeroed at 50 yards ?
