Flashback :grin:

My first (and only) PCP rifle was a Manitou... No idea about your question but just had to mutter something :oops:

Welcome aboard!
Titan were taken over by Falcon back in the 90's IIRC. The Titan and the early Falcon FN series are essentially the same gun with a few small differences (e.g. sloped breech on the Titans). As with most manufacturers there have been small changes and variations over the years but you can replace most Titan parts with Falcon ones.
Falcon are part of NSP (that also own air arms) but have pretty much been discontinued as I understand it. Parts are still available though.
