    Need replacement parts for Alpha-Carette compressor

    I need to replace parts on my Alpha-Carette compressor. I also need to order O-rings and other parts that are normally replaced during regular maintenance. Does anyone have contact information for the manufacturer in China? Thanks.

    Alpha-Carette Oil "Breather" or cap

    I discovered that our black plastic oil "breather" was broken. I don't remember hitting it and I don't know how it happened. It seems too delicate. Even Joe Brancato talks about breaking one in one of his videos. I would like to find a more robust replacement for it. First of all, what...

    Alpha-Carette Compressor DIY Coolant Recovery Tank

    My brother (DrippinLead) and I purchased an Alpha-Carette compressor. We watched several videos and read many threads about coolant recovery tanks. We saw several very elegant installations which we liked very much, but we decided to install a simple, inexpensive coolant recovery tank for...

    Steyr Hunting 5A - What does this screw adjust?

    In the picture, the red arrow is pointing to a screw that was not tight when I turned it with an Allen key. I presume it may be used for making some kind of adjustment since it wasn't tightened down, but I do not know. I will appreciate a response if you know what this is for. I'm also looking...

    Quick detach scope rings

    I have found some scopes that I really would like to have, but the minimum parallax adjustment is 50 yards. I would like to be able to switch scopes on my gun, depending on what distance I am shooting. I would like to hear from those who have used the "quick detach" scope rings to switch...

    I just bought a beautiful Steyr Hunting 5 Automatic from AJ. I have JSB 15.9gr pellets that measure 5.52mm in a PelletGage. I dropped them into the magazine without applying any pressure, as shown in the picture below. Is this the normal height BEFORE applying pressure to push them into...

    Steyr Hunting 5 Auto with moderator

    I recently shot a friend's Steyr Hunting 5 semi-automatic .22 cal rifle, and fell in love with it. It has a Neil Clague moderator on it. I've seen several pictures on the forum of other Hunting 5's that have moderators. If I order a new Hunting 5 from the distributor, it will not have 1/2"...

    Ordering Pellets in Bulk

    The most pellets I have ordered at one time was 16 500-pellet tins. The heavy box that the carrier delivered appeared to have been dropped multiple times, causing damage to several of the tins. I ordered 16 tins because I thought it improved my chances of getting all pellets from the same...
