What Folks are Saying about Flying Dragon

"I just got my XS-28, .25 cal, today. It's a beautiful piece, can't wait to try it out, but I don't have a single pellet in the house that fits it. This is my fourth purchase from Mike, I wish everyone gave his kind of service." - Larry

"After speaking with Mike Melick at Flying Dragon I ordered a B26-2 with low comb and lube. The gun arrived today. I'm just plum tickled. The gun has a very nice stock and cocks easier than any adult rifle that I have handled. The action is super smooth and the trigger is the best of any of my guns including my RWS 34P."

"Mike Melick's B25 line are excellent clones of the RWS34. They are tough, powerful, accurate and reliable. Best of all is the price - with a super tuneup from Mike thrown in. He is a super nice guy and one of the most sought after tuners out there."

Industry Brand Model AR2078

Industry Brand AR2078
The AR2078 CO2 Rifle improves upon the design of the QB78 by using the familiar QB platform and adding a host of performance enhancing features. The most obvious difference with the AR2078 is the beautiful thumbhole stock made from Beech, stained with an attractive deep finish, and fitted with a vented rubber butt pad. The trigger is an adjustable unit and can be adjusted for pull weight and travel to suite your preferences. If you opt for ordering this rifle in tuned configuration, expect a trigger that is surprisingly smooth and light yet very predictable.


A competition Diopter Peep sight is included with this rifle which combined with the interchangeable front sight insert and hooded sight provides a highly effective targeting system that many owners opt to retain due to its reliability instead of switching to a scope. If you do opt for a scope, this rifle is already fitted with standard rails for fitting 11mm scope rings. The AR2078 can be powered with one empty and one full CO2 cartridge, or given a full charge with two full CO2’s. This rifle is also easily upgraded with a variety of fill options including bulk fill adapters and fittings for attaching paint ball tanks, making this air rifle truly versatile in the power source department.

In 177 cal versions velocities around 600 FPS are the average at temperatures above 70 degrees, while 22 cal versions hover around the 550 FPS mark. Just like the rest of the QB78 based series, these rifles respond extremely well to tuning and modification, and many owners have seen FPE of 13+ and velocities of 700+ FPS in 22 caliber easily achieved. Those converting these to bulk fill can see even higher energies. If you want the most from your rifle, e-mail or call us to discuss the various tuning options we offer as we can professionally modify and tailor these air rifles to suit your needs.

AR2078 Rear Sight

Accuracy from the factory is rated at ½” CTC at 30 yrds which often appears to be a conservative appraisal with many owners achieving 3/8” CTC consistently.

Like the rest of our rifles, the Industry Brand AR2078 from Flying Dragon is inspected before shipping and also available in professionally tuned configurations, providing a greater value and better performance and reliability than the standard versions offered by other retailers. Why pay more for someone to just look your rifle over and shoot it through a chrony when you can get a rifle that has been tuned by one of the best tuners in the business and will provide better performance instead?

Note: All our QB78, QB79, and AR2078 series rifle ordered in factory stock configuratation still receive a free standard inspection and test fire over a chrony before shipping. Most retailers charge extra for this service, making this is an unbeatable value that ensures proper performance straight from the box.
