First up, nevermind the mess on the bench. Just finished another job and tossed all the tools on there to sort them..
The Throne Gen 2.
Sorry to say thus far from what i understand a European affair only, one derived from Kral. Same folk that run them both and have to say that i happen to like Kral, out of the several Turkish made guns.
Some iidiott dubbed this "an Impact killer". No. No, itīs not. Even by a longshot. An Impact look alike then? Well, i can see where that comes from, but the truth of the matter is that the Throne Gen 2 is a gun that out of all aspects stands tall on its own power.
As i do what i do what was on order here was to pick it apart and figure it out. Where the FX Impact is a gun SYSTEM the Throne Gen 2 is an at least decently thought through gun, and whatīs more rather well executed.
Yeah. That there is the bare bone chassis, for lack of better words.
Note the extensive use of pins, instead of per normal small screws..
Right. Kral. So the thing of course sports a "power adjuster". As to what avail, you tell me, but one thingīs for certain.. that power adjuster is a constant topic with the Kral crowd. Be it for modifying it or.. it leaking.
Out rear in turn thereīs provision for a hammer spring adjuster. Seeing the spring used though...right.
As the charging handle is mid ships that brings a linkage as this is a bullpup. Indeed the mag is inserted at the rear due. Pellet probe in turn is a of "slug" shape and in turn within reason adjustable (itīs snout is screwed into the rear part of it)
Yeah. Like i said. Pins. IMO this is rather smart as smaller screws very very often gets over torqīd and what not, rendering threads that get shot with time and what not. In turn using pins brings that whoever is to take this apart better have some drift on hand that fit.. good. Cause thatīll most likely make Bubba scarce around these.
That lower slot cut into the receiver/block is for a guide screw bolted to the hammer.
Yep. A 22.
To my knowledge these can be had in 177/22/25.
A lot going on in one pic! Well designed and performed. This is a regulated gun right, and the adjustment thereof is that chromed wheel center picture. From what iīve experienced thus far that reg works reasonably well, making for at least decent repeatability shot to shot. Yes, in turn a Foster fitting to fill the thing up. In turn a small pic rail to fit your bi-pod or whatever and in turn the adapter for the buddy bottle, which is out of aluminium stock.
..aaaand the trigger.
The god awful trigger. Youīll see me get back to this, over and over but the truth remains. In stock form it absolutely sucks.
Now. In all fairness the Throne Gen 2 certainly doesnīt cost of an Impact either, on the contrary. More along less than half even.. That being said should downright design flaws be forgiven?
U guys tell me, but.. stay with me here and weīll get to the bottom of it. Mark!!! The triggers on the earlier Kral guns ainīt exactly a "trigger fest" either, something that has been handled since. (Why this *rap surprise me even more)
So. A trigger blade midships and then the sear group on that actual receiver block.. and a rod that runs between. The actual "stops" on said rod being regular small e-clips.
Setup such that the trigger first up is a single stage and in turn is like pushing a rock across a gravel road.
So. At first all i had i mind was making this thing at least a 2 stage jobbie, which i set out to ponder. But.. yeah well, read on..
