INTRO: .224 NOBLE
zhlédnutí 4,5KPřed 21 dnem
My latest and probably LAST custom AirForce Airguns custom build. Caliber: .224 Name: .224 NOBLE Why? Because its dedicated to my good buddy, fellow airgunner and machinist. Its named after him. MORE INFO?! Watch the video! Stay tuned for field testing! Tofazfou
GARMIN Xero C1 - Initial Outing
zhlédnutí 557Před 2 měsíci
Recently aquired the Garmin Xero C1 chronograph and wanted to put it through its 1st initial trial. Being a new product means nothing. Will it come on when I power it up?! Will it be complicated to set up?! Will it even read very small calibers like, 17 cal?! If so, then this is a good start. Come along with me and see............
TONYFL-Tremor Slugs-Field Review
zhlédnutí 7KPřed 3 měsíci
This is my 1st outing with the TONYFL line of Air gun slugs (TREMOR SLUGS). Tony is new to the game of slug making for airguns and I must say, "he has hit it out of the park" with these. I even love his Tins. They have screw on lids and the labels are on the inside of the lids so they are protected. I test them on paper for accuracy, I even tested them on reactive targets for penetration and ex...
N.U.A.H.: AirForce Texan .338 AirPua (long range pesting)
zhlédnutí 4,1KPřed 3 měsíci
Received a call of desperation from one of my permissions owners about removing pest. He was so frustrated with the numbers of squirrels throughout his property, he wanted info on purchasing air guns for himself as the numbers are just out of control. The Call was real, the destruction is real. This is where my services and my .338 Airpua come in..........

JSB/Predator Pellets 2024 Offerings
zhlédnutí 477Před 5 měsíci
Joe of Predator Pellets was kind enough to share with us what new pellets/slugs will be available for 2024. Every year, JSB releases new and exciting offerings to their already extensive pellet line-up! And before many of you ask or comment, yes, JSB will be coming out with HEAVIER slugs and pellets in the future. In other calibers. Its a process and there will be something for everyone.

Our yearly BOYS only hunting trip to hunt Prairie Dogs. This year, WE are more focused on firearms then we are Air Guns. It's Mason's Maiden Voyage into the world of Firearms and he exhibited the utmost precision with the Franchi .223. We also brought along some NEW camera equipment. Enjoy the clarity
Speeding Bullets vs Speed of Sound
zhlédnutí 11KPřed 9 měsíci
Ever wonder how fast a bullet gets to the target vs the blast from the muzzle? Camera set up downrange at 1000 yards at targets to see what its like as a bullet comes into the target. Is there noise for you to react to? Is the bullet ahead of all incoming sounds? Check out the video to see
Shooting Sabot Ammo from an AIRGUN - 58 cal
zhlédnutí 2,3KPřed 9 měsíci
Finally found a source for SABOT wads that would allow you to shoot various types of ammo from my 58 cal airgun. This can also be done in a small host of other calibers. Just check out MMP Sabots website for more info. This allows me to not only shoot lighter ammo in my .58 but also, it allows me to shoot copper jacketed ammo if i so choose to. I demonstrate this in the video. I shoot Barnes XP...

Tofazfou's 1st Rock Chuck Hunt Idaho, 2023
zhlédnutí 1,2KPřed 11 měsíci
1st ever Rock Chuck hunt with my new Franchi Momentum Varmint Elite in .223 cal. Shooting Sierra 55 gr HPBT's at 3289 FPS. This hunt was special to me as I was accompanied by a good friend and I was invited on this hunt by another good friend at Varminter Magazine whom I haven't seen in way too many years! I had the time of my life!
Are you using something different now?
Bada$$ build brother and 193 fpe is crazy!! Looking forward to some long range missile vids on this one!!

Thats a beauty. Very nice!!!!!
1.6 inch at 342yards think I might just sell all my guns and take up knitting. But on the other hand might just to build one and try to better your group. Seriously excellent shooting Cedric. Thanks for the inspiration to try to beat your group.
Does the light and heavy cocker make any differences in shot fps or accuracy?
Very cool
Awesome build !
This is indeed a very nice rifle. Thanks for the video
Thanks CJ. More coming. Just gotta get over this heat wave first
@Tofazfou Can't wait I enjoy watching your videos. Keep well
FPS?
I do not think you are casting with 100% lead that has to be a bullet alloy 92-6-2 my guess.
thats a beast man. the single shot action is the only thing that steared me towards AEA. but the power is definitely there. now im looking at the western airguns. they have everything. would be nice to see ppl customize a AEA megolodon... i got the m50 and that thing is a beast too
I don't know why you guys can't machine a new frame than using the noodles frame from the original airforce.
That’s sweet. I’m just getting into the af and pcp in general. Any advice where to get better valves. Or how Doug does it. I know a machinist that would help me out
Curious about the hammer weight and spring weight? Delrin Breech? Hammer cocker or breech cocker? How much of barrel carbon fiber wrapped? What mold for .224? Is 1:12 of twist alot of twist for an airgun? The added friction is working ok and able to avoid valve lock with bigger Dyotat .257 valve? I remember that the issue of valvelock was once a concern long ago when I once suggested .17 cal and when considering faster twist rates in .257 for longer heavier bullets. It seems Doug does alot of custom tuning on each valve and that he overcomes the issues with each valve/ hammer and spring being very application specific. So much care goes into the overall complete package. He does so much more as a true custom masterpiece. So much more goes into each specific application as a whole as opposed to just slapping on a bunch of mass produced aftermarket products. That's the type of engineering and fabrication going on when pushing the limits beyond where anyone has gone before. What A/F airguns have lacked in refinement and luxury, they have made it up in power and simplicity. Glad for all the research and work you and Doug have done and then openly shared with the community! I wonder how many A/F sales could be contributed to the work that you and Doug have done and published? It would be interesting statistic if it could ever be quantified. Nice gun!
Beautiful rifle Cedric and you’re right Doug is one of the best out there. I have two 257 from him and they’re awesome. And thanks to you, I met Doug. Much appreciated.
Whats up Jose? Good to see you brotha. Its been awhile. Glad you met Doug also.....😉
Awesome build 🔥🔥 .. there are non high bc mold aviable.. a group buy for a down size version in the 60 to 64gr of the Arsenal 280-107 bt would be great..
Very very nice , you must of had the place custom build that part on your stock ( the k&l but pad mono stock) cause I could not find it on there sight , anyway good work on the gun and thx for pushing the sport to new limits
Just amazing !! Thansks for sharing
Wow what a great airrifle ! thanks for the video
Man bruh that is phenomenal! Poor critters. Flat out don’t stand a chance😂
This film reeks strongly of American propaganda for idiots.
Amazing custom again ❤
Awesome!
Great to hear again from Doug.
Brother don't cliffhanger us like that.
Very nice! I love the AirForce Condor platform. Looking forward to the next video.
Thanks brotha! Yes siiiir, I too love my AF air rifles
Very cool. Doug has mad skills. Go long with yer bad self.
Hell yeah!! I can't wait to see the next vid!!
Very nice. I can't wait to see it on action. 👍
Real nice
Stop teasing, get with it man🤡
LOL, well, you know us working men don't have time to just shoot all day er day.....lol
I was honored to have a small conversation with Tofazfou on old airforce condor forums back in 2010 or something. Have to say this channel improved in quality so much! Keep it up, great stuff 👍
Really nice custom hardware you have, I have a .224 Valkrye,never took off it seems but I believe it’s underrated,nice little round👍
Oh man, I wanted the Valkyre but just like you said, I was ready to click the "buy" button but, NOTHING! Seems like its trying to make a comeback though. Of course, ammo, powder and primer shortages don't help with the advancement of any caliber
193!! That's amazing. What's the FPS?
FPS vary with weight. 1138 FPS with 67 gr Altaros Slugs. 1300 FPS+ fps with 40-45 gr slugs. Thats top speed. But, AirForce airguns have a power wheel so the tuning (fps/fpe) is infinite. This rifle can literally shoot down to a couple hundred fps all the way up to supersonic
@@Tofazfou that's crazy fast. 🤪
Hi sir nice to see u again With awesome result
Good to see you again also. Thank you and..................STAY TUNED for more!
i want one
That's a true custom. Another incredible piece you have there. Can not wait to see the shooting vid!!
Thank you. More "custom" stuff coming too! I appreciate the comment
193 HOT DAMN!!
Yeah, I just verified again last night and it was 1138, 1125, 1114 and 1113 fps with the Altaros 67 gr untethered. That tells me my spring preload was a little too high and that I could have gotten the numbers closer together. But hey, Im still leaning this rig and I have a ways still to go.
Amazing craftsmanship! I look forward to seeing some video footage as only Tofazfou can present.
I appreciate it and I know Doug does too. More video content is in the works. You know i'll start postin stuff up!
Awesome looking gun my boy.
Thank you! Much appreciated
It’s been awhile in the making but I know it’s going to be good .
And with your slugs too....😉😉. I also appreciate talking to you and bouncing ideas off one another
Again, you make us wait!? 😲🙄😬 Anticipation is making me wait!... dag nabit. 😊
HAHA, JAMES, i tell you what, NOTHING hurts me more than Me Myself having to wait to shoot and film again.....lol! Man, this work crap is getting really old, really fast. The older i get, the faster it gets old.....lol! Wish i could shoot everyday like many airgun CZcamsrs i see. I NEED A SUGAR DADDY!
@@Tofazfou Momma, you mean!? 🤔
@@jamesdenny4734 yeah. Yeah. That's what I meant. Sure🤣🤣 In case you forgot, I'm a construction guy LOL
Dude that thing looks amazing. I just know it's gonna be another blisteringly accurate rifle. Are you going to make some solid flat point ammo as well ? Can't wait to hear and see it slam some targets (ground squirrels)
DB! DB! COME ON MAAAAAAN! YOU KNOW ME! I have been having FP and HP molds for damn near 2 years since i concepted this build. I have the, Arsenal 225-47 Grain FN "Bowman", NOE 225-39-FN, Lee C225-55-RF, RCBS 55 gr FN and a couple of M&P molds on loan too. With Mr HP, VarmintKnockers and my own cast, i have over 19 slugs to test. That includes, HPs, RN and FN
How is the barrel connected to the action(threaded, set screws and friction,...?) Thanks
Same thought occurred to me, but I think with something this powerful it's gotta be threaded.
Great question. NOT THREADED. No need. So, this is a custom fitted barrel. The barrel is simply held by set screws in the frame that go down to dimples in the barrel. My barrels are over 1" in diameter and are custom machined down. All airforce airguns barrels are held by set screws and collards that surround the barrel and have been since their inception many moons ago. And yes, once you remove the set screws, my barrel is till held by friction. So you would still have to twist it out
@@ToreDL87 No sir. Answer just above this comment
@@Tofazfou Thanks for the reply... Awesome channel...:)
I’ve been waiting for this one!!! Bad ass build buddy
Me too. Like almost 2 years🤣worth of waiting. It was really painful seeing all the airguns coming out shooting 40 gr slugs at 1040 fps knowing I had something in the works that shot the same weight bullet at the same speeds ON LOW POWER.....lol
@@Tofazfou I bet!! However One of the issues I have, with my Vulcan 3s for example. I can get big power out of them. 49-60grain over 1000fps aka altaros. But they don’t shoot good over 930fps. Maybe you’ll be able to get better accuracy having the ability to send them even faster yet. Will definitely be fun to keep updated on!
I really like the idea of sabots on barrel life, plastic has gotta extend the life.
Could this do a groundhog at 10-15yds
The AV is hunk of junk, It lasted one and a half fills and I can't get the o-rings to seal...Trash!!! How has the alkin held up?eed to know Man 3 year review comin up?!!?!? Shoot me some feed back I'm waiting : )
