    Daystate Huntsman, enable me

    Have you had a chance to shoot one with a bolt? I'm on my second one, both bolt actions. Not a deal breaker but the bolt takes a little bit a tug. I've polished every moving part that I could and started using a Carm self-indexing magazine to eliminate the cocking linkage. Between the...

    Hey Americans, Thinking of y'all today. God Speed.

    We had just left camp in northern NM after an elk hunt and heading home to SE NM. My hunting buddy called me once we had cell service and told me to turn the radio on.... What an unforgettable day and even worse, when we got home and got caught up on the happening. I think of where I was every...

    Yeah, that looks like a good one.

    Testing compressor and tank gauges

    Huh? It sounded to me like the OP was just trying to figure out how to test pressure gauges and figure out which ones are correct. I'd get a good/decent digital test gauge.

    Best Fittings Sale

    Those female fittings are kinda of odd for some of us. Be sure to find the mating male connections to fit your purpose. Maybe those needed to connect some 1/8 npt quick connect fittings.

    Crosman Target Style Wood Grips

    Waiting on UPS or FedEx I guess and ready to chase them down if needed? Other than that reason I don't get it, but that's what my wife says all the time.

    FX 400 just died. What happened?

    Probably the best way to have emptied the bottle would have been to loosen a gauge. Sorry that you have issues now, but this suggestion may help someone in the future.

    FX I hate the fx impact.

    Most are simple fixes with the correct O-ring. The only one that is a little tougher is the two related to the regulator, the second and third photo. Do a YouTube search and you can find out how to remedy these. Might be a good time to try a Huma in this instance. There is a internal O-ring in...

    Krypton compressor issue

    I guess you've tested the compressors gauge with a known good, dead-head gauge to the verify the shut-down's are happening at the same pressures?

    FX New Royale 400 just delivered - photos plus target results

    Did the newer regulated guns come with a regulated pressure gauge like a Crown? Never mind I just saw a photo of a newer Gray Laminate (Greenarrow's)and it didn't have one. I regret selling the one I had.

    Questions about tuxing model TXET061-1 spraying water

    If you're new to all this, I would stick with the white filter. If you're seriously talking about using kitty litter for a filter that might cause additional issues. As far as bleeding any water off I usually go 10-15min on my AV4500 but I also have a secondary filter downstream of the...

    My compressor won,t release pressure?

    Before you try to disconnect the hose from the gun and risk your health could you remove the bottle from the gun (if equipped) and dry fire the gun and relieve the pressure that way or even just loosen a gauge but then you'd have to bleed the whole gun down bottle/tank and all. Just a thought..
