    PCP collection near complete

    My collection of PCP rifles has taken many turns over the years. Starting with a Hatsan AT44 Tactical in .25 back in 2006. I’ve done numerous disco conversions, had a BT65 that was putting out just a hair over 100FPE in .25 cal then came my first high end rifle. An FX impact MK2 in .22 cal...

    Optics Theoben/Anschutz blade sight and front tunnel sight

    I’ve got a Theoben labeled Anschutz rear sight with screws and an Anschutz front Tunnel sight with one post insert. Not sure what model Theoben this came from as it’s the only one I’ve ever seen. Asking 80$ for both plus shipping. The front globe sight screw will not tighten down on a 3/8...

    Theoben logo

    Anyone have a high resolution .JPEG of the old Theoben logo? I’d like to order myself a T-shirt or two from Vista print. For those who don’t know , vista print allows you to copy and paste pics onto t shirts, cups , pens etc . I like to have my custom t shirts made there.

    Beeman Crow magnum .20 inbound

    I put out a feeler looking for a Theoben eliminator in any caliber and with a bit of luck. Within hours I got a reply for said rifle in .20 cal. I’ve never owned a Theoben or Beeman variant or any rifle in .20 . This is exciting. The seller sent me some pics , there are some minor marks from use...

    RWS My version of the RWS 850

    I was looking for a high shot count , lower powered .177 mainly for shooting paper at my property. While browsing through one of our Canadian dealers I found an HPA converted 850 in a custom wood stock. I took a chance and I arrived yesterday. Right from the unboxing I knew I was going to enjoy...

    Diana Diana 54 air king pro 7.5J

    I have a 7.5 J coming and I’d like to see if anyone has ever converted one to full power. From the very little information out there about the low power versions it looks like there’s more than likely a transfer port restriction in the form of a washer with a tiny hole ( 2mm or less) as an air...

    N/A Thinking of a high shot count .177

    I already have an HW100 in this cal that I’ve got tuned to shoot at 16 FPE and it’s perfect for that application. What I’m thinking of is a low powered , 8 fpe ( 8.4 grain at 650fps) with a monster shot count. I’m not an airgun snob , but I refuse to buy a rifle from China and would prefer not...

    PCP Rifle AAA Paradigm

    CANADIANS ONLY I recently purchased this rifle from one of our forum members but my finances just can’t support my airgun sickness. It’s in great condition, comes in the factory box , two magazines , all the AAA tools, a spare regulator and a literal pile of good quality o rings. I’m asking...

    Kral Arms Reximex RP/A or Mito trigger

    Anybody here have a fix for these triggers? They say it’s a two stage trigger , but in all reality the only way to have this design work without 3/8” of creep is to eliminate the first stage completely. I have a friends pistol here for a reseal and he asked if I could do something about the...

    Shoebox on last leg

    After many years of ownership since 2008 a couple rebuilds , a few miscellaneous parts like belts and drive gears. It looks like I’m on my last rebuild. Yesterday while filling I started hearing the dreaded belt skip, I knew right away that the aluminum drive gear was worn and needed replacing...

    What’s your favorite target?

    I do shoot for groups using the usual paper and do hunt with my air rifle. This is a question for what else we can shoot at? Here’s my favorite , I’ll usually glue them down to the large popsicle sticks and spread them out at varying ranges. The kids love this type of shooting.

    N/A EVOL vs Epic two

    I’ve been watching the Epic two videos and reviews and something jumped out at me. Is this rifle a copy or possibly a euro version of the EVOL? I recently acquired a Paradigm and have had it apart to have a look at the workings. There are quite a few similarities and a few differences. Of course...

    Other Revisiting an old friend

    I bought this rifle about 6 years ago if my memory serves me correct. When it arrived I couldn’t help but stand back and admire the craftsmanship. Up until that point I had gone through some low end and midrange rifles like the Hatsan , Benjamin, Evanix to name a few and in my mind thought they...

    WIKA 1” gauge

    Does anyone know if these are even a thing. I can find all kinds of 28mm but nowhere do I see a 25mm. There are lots of 25mm/1” Huma gauges available from just about every airgun retailer but I would much prefer WIKA.

    Let’s see them work benches

    It’s Sunday morning and I figured now would be a good time to do a bit of a clean up. Not what I would call spotless but at least I can see the top of my work bench. I really like the poly sheets from our local hardware store. I think they are how shower lining. Easy to cut to fit and being...

    What’s with JSB these days

    I know this has been covered already for the most part but I’m gonna rant anyways. I was just looking at pellet prices , and it’s not like JSB is the only company that have jacked up their prices but dear lord, 30$ CAD for a tin of 500 x 16 grain pellets? 40$ CAD for 400 x 20 grain? We’re...

    American Air Arms Oops I did it again

    Over the last few months it seems my dream guns keep coming up for sale. This time a late model .22 AAA Paradigm. I just couldn’t help myself. To offset the cost, I’ve got a few from my stable for sale . A few that I never thought I’d ever move on. I’ve even started moving a few powder burners...
