Making a telescoping shroud for the Airmaks Krait

[@kevinstoughton8476]

You’re the man!!! You make some of the sweetest parts and accessories for so many already great airguns…Making them that much cooler! I wish I had just half of your knowledge and all the tools you do! Awesome!

[@sub12airgunners]

Thanks Kevin, we do like to make them our guns 😊

[@lisawood516]

Awesome design. I would love to have one of those for my FX Impact. That and the Carbo fiber tension kit would be a awesome addition to the gun. Great work and awesome video

[@sub12airgunners]

[@henrymoreland8719]

Oh, First few minutes the thinking was , I want one of those, Then I seen the work that went into it, the thinking became, I can't afford it. Great video, thanks. Good luck.

[@sub12airgunners]

yes a lot of work 😁 thanks for watching

[@paulspeller968]

i tell you maté absolutely stunning . makes a very sweet rifle look excellent and very practical 👍

[@aaronparnell3987]

Any plans/chance to do a shroud for the Dreamline tactical compact?

[@sub12airgunners]

not at the moment but maybe in the future

[@darrenrichardson6803]

Very well explained as always! 👍

[@sub12airgunners]

Glad you think so thanks for watching 👍

[@iangoodsell3257]

Top job again Jake

[@sub12airgunners]

Thank you

[@zzzycho]

Very inspirational, love watching all your projects, I still can't make my mind up on which air rifle to buy, I look at a gun and think this needs done or that needs modified, or maybe even ,that looks dangerous (press gauge at end of barrel), so seeing all your finessing is great. How about a manifold block to angle some pressure gauges to a more user friendly position, just some food for thought. Keep up the good work.

[@sub12airgunners]

thank you and thanks for watching

[@johnrichards5440]

Stunning work 👏 yet again ,your cutting inserts really cut well ,please could you tell me what brand you use many thanks, and thanks for all the great videos .

[@sub12airgunners]

Hi thank you 👍 they are VCGT inserts polished for aluminium, i always try to get YG brand ones when i can although the ebay ones are pretty good

[@johnrichards5440]

Much appreciated, many thanks 👍

[@danbrown6255]

Couldnt be made better fantastic

[@sub12airgunners]

Thank you 👍

[@three-phase562]

Cool idea, brilliantly executed. The Krait you could buy a longer case for I guess, but there are plenty of rifles out there, such as my Effecto PX5 that would benefit from a telescopic shroud as I can't find a long enough hard case that will take the rifle with the moderator still attached.

[@sub12airgunners]

yes we could have got a bigger case but we have wanted to do a telescoping shroud for a time now and this seemed to be the perfect excuse to do one 😁 thanks for watching

[@IvanIgnath]

Does it hold poi when the moving part is rotated? In my experience most carbon tubes are not 100% circular on inner diameter and little less on outer diameter. When I was making mine for Katran, I had to glue it in a fixture to get the front and rear part concentric.

[@1001space]

that's mint great video

[@sub12airgunners]

Thanks 👍

[@sspider9523]

Awesome design. I want to hear the sound with ammo.

[@sub12airgunners]

it's a lot quieter with a pellet in 👍

[@jimdwight4973]

I enjoy your videos even though I own only cheaper PCPs, so far. I really like P35s, for instance. I've seen the negative postings about the Krait on AGN and enjoy your detailed explanation of what you like and do not like. One feature someone mentioned that I do not think you've addressed is the fill valve. It was stated that the Krait has an O-ring with a screw threw it for a fill one-way valve (like my P35s). I did not see you address this on the teardown video. Is that true? If so, what is your opinion about this sort of valve. (It is working fine in my 3 P35s but it does seem a little crude to me.)

[@jeffhello1444]

nice 😁😁

[@sub12airgunners]

thanks

[@2speed818]

Man you are amazing 👍 awesome job. Can you make a regulator for a umarex origin? Thought I would ask.

[@sub12airgunners]

Thank you no sorry we don't do for people, we do our guns for the vids, sorry

[@chrisfigueroa3361]

I have never seen or heard of anyone like you on KZbin or anywhere else, for that matter, how you can make these parts and accessories ..... you make it look easy and awesome. I like how you talk us through what you are building the measurements and what it's for ... have you ever considered building an air gun? I'm sure you can build a gun from scratch I know there some people out there that are going to read this and say I'm kissing your ass I'm not I'm just simply saying you have some awesome skills 😎 keep up the hard work thanks for sharing bsafe buddy 👍

[@sub12airgunners]

Thank you very much 👍 doing our own gun is going to happen it's just getting time but we do have plans 😁 thanks for watching

[@chrisfigueroa3361]

@@sub12airgunners oh man I can't wait and I hope they are fir sale 🙏

[@vainparasite]

I wish I could still get access to the lathe and other machines at work. I have been waiting for 8 weeks for the shroud spacer for the breech end of my red wolf and there is still no sign of it showing up. It would only take me 30 minutes or so to knock one up. Retirement isn't always fantastic 😂 I don't suppose you do stuff to sell like that do you? Waiting for daystate is a joke 😞😞

[@sub12airgunners]

No sorry we don't, thanks for watching 👍

[@bugsyboy705]

Leonardo da Vinci with a lathe 👍.

[@sub12airgunners]

Thank you 😁

[@ootahbeefz5501]

🔥need something like that for the p15

[@sub12airgunners]

[@garybashaw8245]

What glue are you using Great vid btw

[@sub12airgunners]

24 hour 2 part epoxy 👍

[@sonan7216]

Good morning, if I had to choose the krait, it would be among the first three, thank you.

[@sub12airgunners]

[@hunteracw05]

❤❤❤❤

[@sub12airgunners]

thanks you

[@keithtaylor8688]

Nice work ... But why ?

[@sub12airgunners]

because we wanted to, we had never done a telescoping shroud so this was the gun that got one 👍

[@jonahchua]

thats awesome, are you a custom shop? I'd like to have some work done if you are @sub12airgunners

[@sub12airgunners]

Hi Thank you 👍 no we are not a shop we do these bit to our own guns for the vids
