This is an Air Power Vector. It is serial number 32. Lets se what you all think. It was manufactured in the 90's, and has a low enough working pressure that I can put my finger in the chamber and fire, without losing the tip

Because of doubters. Using that low of pressure it won't chop a ball easily, instead the bolt stops. Flick the safety on it, and it resets the action.

I think that the grips are styled from Heckler and Koch (sp?)
I am not the original owner, I bought it a month or two ago.

It can run CO2, or HPA. It seems to work better with regulated (secondary reg) HPA though.

The barrel does come off. That dot on the barrel under the carry handle is a spring loaded button. Push it in, then pull on the barrel.

Rainmaker Good eye. Same designer. It is basically a non-electro Rainmaker.

Ah yes, the Vector. I've actually played indoors recently where a guys was still using one, and it still worked like a charm. I know, i was on the receiving end, lol. Prior to the Vector, Air Power used to make the Apex Elite, one of the primo pumps of its day.

Thank ya thank ya. It's super loud too, which makes it a little more fun. I also have an Air America Intimidator loudner for it. These have been "clocked" at 130 decibals in a closed room.
