    Artemis P15 side lever conversion.

    Ken, Sorry for the delay. That's dye from Keda on the stock, I have a couple of threads with some stocks I wound up doing. The dye is in powder form and you mix it with alcohol or water. Mixing the base colors, will get you just about anything you want. The issue is that you have to keep...

    Diana 6G Saturday rebuild

    RidgeRunner, I was surprised that I got a notification for this thread. I haven't been active on the site for some time and haven't kept up. The funny part is that I wound up getting a Diana 10 and had to do the same thing. It was a time capsule, but the seals had long since expired. Good luck...

    Rekord trigger group

    I bought two new ones out of Portugal. I can see what they cost me and I'd be willing to sell one. If you're interested, send me a PM. Mark

    Best way to clean out inside of a CF cylinder/bottle

    Again, acetone should be fine, or you could just flush it out with brake cleaner.

    Best way to clean out inside of a CF cylinder/bottle

    Augie, Loctite usually doesn't play nicely. Acetone might break down some of the milder types. You may have to be satisfied with what you can remove mechanically. Hope all is well for you. Mark

    BSA Super Ten in .25? BSA didn't, maybe I should ??? :)

    Okay, it's been a productive day. Tore the rifle down, found a used Lothar Walther blank and made a new barrel. Only trick pony was grinding an internal grooving tool for the barrel O-ring. Not a big deal, but it was the only tooling item I had to make for this. The bolt was hardened, which...

    BSA Super Ten in .25? BSA didn't, maybe I should ??? :)

    top, Great suggestion for potential donors, but I already have a few barrels that will be donor material and I'll be spending money on the Huma unit and a bottle. This is one of those typical projects that you invest way more than is sensible, but you get what you want. In my case, an act of...

    BSA Super Ten in .25? BSA didn't, maybe I should ??? :)

    vmaxpro, That's great to hear that you gave that a try. I'm not trying to convert the masses in favor of lobbing .25's along, but having at least one set up just for giggles is nice if you have a gun that you can set up easily that way. There is an odd satisfaction when that big pellet lumbers...

    Edgun Matador r3 .30 info!!!

    Juan, I had one and it was a great rifle, it liked pellets and slugs in the 47-53gr range, excellent accuracy and decent power. Many current models can make greater power than the R3, but it's no slouch. I traded mine off because I didn't have much need for the power of a .30. It's an Edgun, so...

    BSA Super Ten in .25? BSA didn't, maybe I should ??? :)

    Serdac, Sounds like you have had fun travelling the slow road quite a bit in the past with some of your .25's. I love how easy it was to drop the velocity in my Leshiy, just a matter of hammer spring tension and no other mods. I'll wind up making it a bit more complicated with a build like this...

    BSA Super Ten in .25? BSA didn't, maybe I should ??? :)

    top, Nothing new to deal with a rainbow trajectory. I once lobbed 3 pellets out of my Leshiy into a group that all three touched at 50yds. THAT WAS A BLAST!!! I know normal people are always questing for more power and accuracy, but I'm telling you that I love what you can do with low power...

    BSA Super Ten in .25? BSA didn't, maybe I should ??? :)

    No worries. The carbine aspect and a non-factory caliber is the draw for me. I like how fast and nimble that platform becomes when you lighten them up and knock about 9" off the overall length. The blank I have is plenty long and I might leave it full length during initial function testing...

    BSA Super Ten in .25? BSA didn't, maybe I should ??? :)

    vmaxpro, Thanks for the support, it's reassuring that there is someone else that sees an idea like this having merit. Bear in mind, I might be able to achieve that kind of power, but I won't make that as a requirement. I have one of my Leshiy's, in .25, dialed down to 19FPE and it's crazy...

    BSA Super Ten in .25? BSA didn't, maybe I should ??? :)

    Anyone that has been horrified by my aberrations and seen that I have a fondness for the BSA Super Ten, also knows that I really like carbines. That's why I have two Super Tens that I got creative with and made carbines out of in .177 and .22. Through a bit of horse trading with another member...

    Got my 78G grips from Vernon Austin

    Thanks for the info, I'm pretty sure I saw his products and hesitated ordering sooner because a friend was CeraKoting it. I'll look forward to his next run. Mark
