    FX Bad valve? Maybe?

    Wouldn't be surprised if the valve is leaking but you also have a regulator issue now as well. I recently had to fix the valve in my Ranchero which is very similar to the gladiator I believe. I had to lap the valve with the seat together to make a new sealing surface since the delrin seal was...

    ❓ What magnifying(!) sights are there with unlimited(!) eye relief?

    https://www.truglo.com/traditional-2x42/ This is the only magnified sight I'm aware of with infinite eye relief. A magnifier, in my experience, has short eye relief, and this would be applied. Just look up photos of them mounted to guns and look where they are mounted.

    Primary Arms SLx 4-14x44mm FFP IR, ARC-2 MOA

    That would be a preferable reticle. I got a deal on mine, and quite like it. Can't say I have any issues with the reticle at all, but yours is for sure better. Was more or less saying that I like these scopes in general, and they seem to be of good quality.

    Primary Arms SLx 4-14x44mm FFP IR, ARC-2 MOA

    I don't think it had the slx attached to the name, but it looks basically identical in form, function, and features. The reticle is fairly fine with an illuminated chevron and a larger horseshoe around it. The horseshoe is very nice for low mag/closer shots where the chevron is reduced down to...

    Primary Arms SLx 4-14x44mm FFP IR, ARC-2 MOA

    I have an older r grid one that lives on my fx crown. I like mine very much.

    Skout Barrel Collecting Lead

    I'd polish the bore, personally. I also recommend gunzilla as a bore treatment after cleaning. Extends my accurate shot count 2-3x in powder guns. Also worth nothing that shooting airguns real hot (fast) can exacerbate this issue. Normally an issue I primarilly have using slugs.

    You won’t believe the answer I have gotten to this problem

    Ridiculous and unacceptable. If anyone asks, I tell them not to buy mtc as well. I had one of their connect scopes. Not impressed.

    Hatsan Hatsan Bully .25

    Cant say for sure but you'd probably need the valve as well. But I wager it would work.

    Functional versus Superior Quality: Finding Value in Airgunning

    Quality > quantity if at all possible. I've had a number of airguns over the years, some crosmans, daisys, a gamo nitro piston (surprisingly good with a trigger upgrade), a norica, couple hatsans. If at all possible, I'd choose to wait for a bargain on a nice gun, or save for full price. If...

    N/A Decocking pcp!!!

    That's debatable, but even the speculation of which makes me want to not leave them cocked.... I think what primarily causes fatigue is repeated compression and expansion. It is likely in some scenarios that storing compressed would cause some minute amount of fatigue. Any of which is...

    Diana Soft Transport Case for Diana Bandit

    I have a midway case that would probably work. Would need to take the mod off and put it in a sock or something. The boyts one is quite large as well. Otherwise you are looking at a carbine case that will be excessively large.

    Evanix ar6k barrel

    Fair point. The key is to not mess it up! Haha. Never stopped me from screwing things up, though. Is the barrel easily removable? If so, it'd be real easy to get a kral barrel prepped for the Job.

    Evanix ar6k barrel

    Have you considered working with the one that's on it?

    N/A What are these grips for ???

    We have a winner.

    An experiment I would like to see

    Educated guess would say between 120-200 would be ideal. For larger objects like an intake runner on an engine I'd lean toward 300-420. Honestly, it's a hard concept to put into words. But look at some real world experiments on this, and you'll see the affect for sure. Almost like air or...

    HW/Weihrauch Weihrauch Stainless

    I've noticed the blued HW finish is top tier as well. Never one issue. I have no stainless guns, but these are all keepers IMO 😎

    A hypothetical question

    Right now. Traditional format, air tube, not bottle, compact. Or at least not overly long... hmmmm. I'd be real tempted to give a short hw100 a try. Whatever model it is. Or maybe a daystate. Or a BSA. But with that budget I could get a Sabre tac fx crown and slap a 220cc airtube on it...

    What a difference a bit of bling makes...

    Thought it was a Royale or boss at first 😂 Looks nice.

    Better wood on air rifles

    I also much prefer a nice piece of walnut. And it is a shame that it's hard to get a decent piece. I know plenty of guys wouldn't mind paying a premium, myself included. This is probably the nicest piece I have. Gary Cane made this one for me from a shotgun blank. I couldn't find a...
