Oplo Hits Assembly Phase

Oplo's first fully machined and anodised base is currently being assembled with the first batch commencing assembly shortly thereafter. This unit will be used for test and evaluation (machining passes are a bit faster).

Components will be either highly polished or glass bead blasted and anodised in silver or champagne. Feet and foot screw knobs (in image) are raw Aluminium requiring bead blasting and anodising in black for the feet and champagne for the knobs. Column carriages and front spherical bearing mount are already bead blasted and require champagne anodising.

Under base coarse mechanism bay with machined pockets are ready for installation of components. This F6 is for a right handed shooter. For left handed shooters all components are the same with only machining to the opposite pocket required.

An additional 4 lightening pockets will be machined into the first batch. Later batches will have the pockets cast in.


A TITANIUM VERSION IN F6 WILL BE AVAILABLE

Versions: F6, F6-Ti and F7-Ti PRO

Optional extras: Counterbalance with 1 barrel weight and extra barrel weight if required

F7-Ti PRO will be available mid 2021 with tuneable joystick sensitivity
