    RTI RTI MORA ?

    I'm looking at a new Mora in.25 after all my POI issues with FX. I understand everyone's hesitancy, but I preordered a GK1 and the Version 1 is actually better than Version 3. I have both versions. So it depends. There could be a significant discount if preordering.

    Carbon fiber tank question

    There are so many threads in the archive on this subject. Please look there. You are reinventing the wheel. I will state one thing. High Pressure Air (HPA) is expensive. It is more expensive than any element in this hobby, including your guns. You get what you pay for. Small, inexpensive...

    N/A Artemis PP700S-A leaking.

    Yes that is the size you need, but it is always advisable whenever you acquire a new air gun to order at least 10 of every size of "O" ring or seal that the gun uses and just put them on the shelf labeled by both size and part number because they are cheap and they are a consumable. If you shoot...

    N/A Artemis PP700S-A leaking.

    Thank you for making the water test. This is a factory problem. The cause is an under size "O" ring. I created a thread on this issue a couple of years ago. The Band-Aid is a gasket like MrP said, but the fault is ITEM number 34 part number M10-054. The parts diagram says it should be an "O"...

    FX FX Barrel/Liner Problems - with picture

    You can do as you want. No one is holding your feet to the fire, but be advised that the folks on this forum are shooters, not engineers. They reply based on what they understand is true, not necessarily true technical understanding. This problem is everywhere, not just here. However, their...

    It may not be hammer forged, but that process is still called forging.

    FX Not convinced an FX Crown bottle clamp is a good idea

    Saber Tactical. You will note the clamp is made using a fiber reinforced plastic The fit around the shroud uses a rubber like cushion. The gap between the the shroud bore and bottle bore is perfect and places no lateral stress on the bottle. The clamping screws fit into brass fittings molded...

    FX FX POI Shift : SOLVED ?

    I am very happy for your success, but I suspect it is premature. There are many things that will cause POI shift, but the real reason which you cannot correct is the receiver to barrel interface. To prove my point, just remove and reinstall your barrel from the receiver. The gun will not shoot...

    300 Bar Easy Quick Fill Adaptor For PCP and Airgun from AliExpress

    It's a great idea. It really can save a lot of air being wasted, but it is frail and does not work reliably.

    300 Bar Easy Quick Fill Adaptor For PCP and Airgun from AliExpress

    I received my ordered second one. They will work well at pressures not to exceed 200 bar. After that with higher pressures they start failing by first not bleeding down once the lever is released. Then with continued use at higher pressures, the actuating pin fails. The seller has received many...

    N/A Artemis PP700S-A leaking.

    If you want help, you have to do better in answering the questions asked. We have a lot of experience with this gun, but you are there and we are not. You have to be our eyes. Taking the gun apart and resealing can cause as many issues as those that you can fix. This is especially true with the...

    Moderator Caliber Question

    Subscriber is correct. I have been an air gun enthusiast my whole life. Air guns are short range and residential area friendly. I never go to a shooting range with an air gun. Their value is that can be used in an urban environment safely. In so doing, moderators are very much part and parcel to...

    Moderator Caliber Question

    There are two primary factors that influence sound reduction. There are others as well but are actually quite minor. The first is volume and the second is moderator bore size. When it comes to volume, the larger the better. When it comes to bore size in my experience, .020" (.5 mm) diametral...

    FX Not convinced an FX Crown bottle clamp is a good idea

    You are correct, a long taper would not be appropriate. A short , keyed taper and a clamping nut is the correct answer.

    What's your point? That photo is not a barrel clamp.

    FX Not convinced an FX Crown bottle clamp is a good idea

    FX is avoiding this subject because it makes very public a serious design fault. It is no safety issue using a bottle clamp. There is no stress on the bottle. The design fault is the weakness and flex of the thin wall barrel design, but the real cause of the POI shift is the loose coupling of...

    Huben GK1 LEAKING WHILE trying to Fill air

    Foster fitting leaks are unfortunately very common because there appears to be no enforced dimensional standards for these quick connect fittings and can often cause the fittings to blow apart under pressure, which can be very exciting. When this happens, it very often ruins the internal O ring...

    Huben pistol.

    I believe it is a degassing screw, but if used others have stated, it will not properly reseal and can cause the gun to leak air.

    Other Perspective on off hand shooting

    I shoot my pistols everyday at least 20 rounds, usually 2 magazines. It is not economical to print your own targets. They are much cheaper to buy in bulk and they are made from heavier paper stock. I use the 14cm square, 5 1" bullseye 10 meter rifle target at 25 meters. I can now consistently...
