Looking for reliable side lever pcp breech short rifle in .22 cal. that is accurate out to 50 plus dependable has good reviews with available parts, no pistols or bull pups . What do you have please post pics . thank you

Hi all,

I just got my first focal plane scope Athlon Midas Tac due to readings that it doesn't matter which magnification you're on, one doesn't need to do hold overs like SFP scopes. My question is, does it matter which distance and magnification I zero the scope since there is no hold overs to worry about? Not sure how this works. And it's raining cats and dogs here so I can't experiment to understand the concept.

Thanks,

Hello all,

I've been troubleshooting my old R7 and in search of new barrel shims and pivot bolt assembly. Both are fairly worn. I've visited the usual sources with little success. Anyone know where I might find some Weihrauch small parts?

Thanks!

So whenever I pick the cal for a new rifle, I don’t even consider .177. I mean, there is whole countries out there being sad about the fact that that’s what they’re stuck with… I’ve got plenty of space to plink so why cripple myself (or so I thought… ).

Yet, I find myself thinking about a .177 more and more due to “some” people’s influence (not looking at anyone in particular @JaceSpace1369 @RabbitofCaerbannog)… I am almost caving in so maybe talk me out of it? If you want to talk me (even deeper) into it that’s fine as well, ideally with a recommendation for a rifle in this case Since it’ll be an experiment of sorts for me I’d probably want to get a used medium tier one first to see how I like it, should shoot slugs though since I’d like to use it for small critters (besides plinking)… Thanks in advance!

Looking to sell one of my EP5 mil reticle 5x25x56 scope in like newcondition .. because I want to try the new EP5 7x35 .. $420 Shipped PayPal ff or add the fees .

This is a new TX200 full length .177, right hand rifle, with a nicely figured walnut stock.

Bought this locally from a guy who won this at an FT match. However, he only shoots PCP’s, so he sold this to me for $650 a couple months ago.

I pulled it out of the packaging and put it on my indoor workbench and had intentions of putting a Vortek kit in it. But I wound up getting a tuned TX200HC, leaving me no reason to keep this. As such, I took photos of it and put it back in the packaging and now listing it here.

Just looking to get my money back out of it. These are $880 plus tax currently. Selling for $650 cash firm. That’s just over 25% off on a brand new gun.

Only looking to do a local sale in Ft. Worth, TX area, as I don’t have a second box for this and don’t have time to drive around to attempt to find one.

I got a chance to shoot a card before dinner yesterday with my slug gun. The wind was far from ideal but there was nothing I could do about it. I saw maybe 5 mph every once in a great while....and gusts 15 plus about as often.

My strategy in conditions like these is to avoid the gusts and identify something that is repeatable and able to hold for at least a second or two.
I then set up for that condition and I'm ready to make slight, fast corrections based on what I see.

I'm not able to process 3 flags that are constantly changing....so I break it down to finding 2 that seem to be operating somewhat together. My front flag would not hang with the other two very often..,so I chose the far two flags as the ones to watch closely. If you have read about how I space my flags...then you know I space them so each flag will represent a zone of equal drift. If you space your flags evenly...the flags will not be representing equal influence. So with this system I'm hoping to get things 2/3 correct most times.

Anyway...I identified a condition where the far flags would push the tails out fully at about the 10:30 to 11:00 position. Because of the drastic change in jump that occurs as the wind crosses 12:00....I wanted to avoid anything too close to that position. The condition would usually fully flow out the tails for about 1-2 seconds. A fully extended tail is the only way you can really know what is most currently happening. If the tail is curled or fluttering....the wind has already changed and the tail or vane has not caught up to it yet. Sometimes it will curl and ,although, the vane never really changes direction...you can be sure the wind did temporarily.

A variation of this condition seemed to present itself about every 25-30 seconds on average. The variation was that of wind strength at the time...so I opted to make my wibdage adjustment the one I could quickly change on the fly. If the tails looked flatter...I jumped to the right and fired...if they were what I expected I stayed put. You get the idea. I started at the bottom left and went up in a serpentine pattern.

When I got to the top row...my condition seemed to disappear for good. I had given up on
It an had to take a few blind shots which were still ok but not optimal. Then all at once the condition showed back up for my last couple.

I actually still had a couple minutes left...but was getting a little panicked toward the end.

I'm sure there are a lot of ways to handle that type of wind...but that's how I did it.

After chatting with some guys here on the form I'm set on getting this one from Walmart. It has water cooling , so I'm going to upgrade the pump right off the get go. It uses reg motor oil , and can fill a 6.8L tank in 47 min. Like the ones I have for sale on classifieds for $35. It also says a 500 cc bottle in 3 min.
Some guys said here they had it 4 years. Is there any reason I should or should not buy it ?.

I have a dirty 30cal /350mm barrel for the Leshiy Classic. These are hard to find almost like hens teeth. I'm asking $250 now $220 and Finally $200 shipped. Deal by texting me at 92zero 4two79six08 or email me at [email protected]
Buy with confidence as I have about 10 pages of all Positives on the old Yellow BOI and only a few here. Will post pics ASAP.
Thanks Richard

Hello, my name is Mark and after a long absence from any air gun forums, James Kitchen and yellow, I decided to join AGN. As my handle says I live in the state of misery. I just bought a new Notos, scope and rings and am having problems getting a good picture in the scope. I have one inch high rings and they are still not high enough for a good sight through the scope. I have to push down so hard on the stock with my face that I cannot get any kind of accuracy out of it. Anyone have any suggestion on what i can do to solve this problem. Mark

I adjusted alkin w-31 to a hair over 4800 PSI , Yep pulled my three great white tanks in the garage Nice day 65 degrees, no wind and no humidity,,,, Air all three tanks and all check out at 4800 PSI.,. About two hours pass before I get them in the house , Once in the house I check gauges , Yep the ole cool down thing.. All read 4500 just about perfect on all three.
Brain fart here , Now if I adjust to 5000 psi will I blow my pressure reliefs ???? If it's not one thing it's another with these dam guns yep should I shoot the flat heads or the domes tomorrow, Should I trade out that scope for a red dot just for kicks???? 177, 22, or 25 caliber tomorrow, Yep just another thing .

For sale is a Tactical Stock for the Taipan Veteran 1. This was bought a few months ago from Talon Tunes. This sale does NOT come with the cheekpiece.

Please keep in mind that even though is stock is in very good condition and I've looked it over to find any imperfections, you are still buying a used stock. Minor nicks and scratches are to be expected. I have looked over the stock as closely as reasonable and the only thing I found that is worth mentioning is a minor nick (pictured with the red circle) which came that way from Talon Tunes.

Price is $235 shipped to continental USA with PayPal or Venmo.

Although I don't have much feedback here, I have 1,000+ positive feedback on eBay. Please message me there at CarnivoreGreens username and I will reply back to confirm feedback reputation.

Thank you for looking!

The video does not say what type of tank was involved or its intended uses.
Just an oxygen tank.

Ive upgraded my .177 600mm drs classic and put on the shp plenum, .25 liner, Inlet and probe.
The hammer weight the classic came with (10g) did not manage to open the valve past 120bar. So I bought a tungsten hammer so I could push some 26gr slugs atleast 950+ with 130bar. Its super loud (with a mod) and I can see airsmoke coming out the barrel after a shot.
Is there some other parts that the pro has so I can get the speeds and shot count listed on fx website? I now the pro is 700, and I wait for the carbon tube to come soon.
As it is now I have no chance to push 33gr slugs at 950+

Sold 2/16/2025 pending funds.

For sale is a like new Taipan Veteran 1 in .22 caliber with the red laminate stock. It comes with 3 .22 magazines and all the other hardware it came with in the box when I bought it such as the fill probe with quick disconnect and the single shot tray.

Regulator: The stock regulator on this gun is set to 130 bars. It is tuned at around 33.5 FPE

About the barrel: This gun comes with a .22 caliber CZ unchoked barrel. I have not confirmed for myself if the barrel is indeed unchoked but this information comes directly from an email conversation with Taipan. When I bought it, August 2024, Taipan has told me that all the current stock of Veteran 1's that Talon Tunes had at the time were all definitely CZ unchoked barrel. Again, this is the information that I was given so please take it as it is. I've only shot pellets through it at around 30 FPE and it is very accurate.

The gun is in very good condition. According to my logs, there is only 346 shots through it.

Please not that the anodizing on the barrel shroud and the air tube is the type that is very matte. As such it does pick up minor marks. I wouldn't call them scratches but they do not rub off with the hands. I wouldn't call them defects but it's just the nature of this type of anodizing. I've had 3 of this gun in different calibers and the finish were all the same. I'm just stating for full transparency.

Also, please keep in mind that even though is gun is in very good condition and I've looked it over to find any imperfections, you are still buying a used gun. Minor nicks and scratches are to be expected. I have looked over the gun as closely as reasonable and I have not found any that are worth mention.

Price is $1125 $1099 (or best offer) shipped to continental USA with PayPal or Venmo.

Thank you for looking!

Check this thing out....if we could only get it delivered to the US!!!

I recently bought my first pcp rifle. The Avenge X tactical.
I have been trying out different pellets and slugs. However I am extremely inexperienced in the process of figuring out tuning, speeds, ect.
Past week I have been focused on JSB 13.43 knockout slugs. Just when I think I am shooting accurately, NOPE..... Hitting 50 yards all over the place....
I have installed the Nova Vista Power Plenum. Reg is set to 2000 psi. Adjusting H.S. from zero moving up 1/4 turn at a time creating speeds from 825 - 950 fps.
No matter what I do my accuracy is that of a 3 year old on speed coloring inside the lines.

I am struggling to determine if my barrel just doesn't like this particular slug?
Is it the wind?
Am I tuning wrong?
Is there a issue with my regulator?
Issue with something else I'm not thinking of?

Please advise.

I have several PCP's but not a single Springer. I might get 1 before too long, (still doing homework).
My question is this: What are some decent quality FFP AO scopes up to a max of say x25, that will hold up to the recoil forces on a Springer? I am NOT putting any of my fairly high $$ (at least to me anyway) scopes on it just to the rifle thrash it in a short amount of time. Thanx guys.

Has anyone changed the buttstock on their 250Z yet? I have a really good Luth-AR on my Armada that I want to change over, but for the life of me, I can't seem to get this original off the "buffer" tube. I tried just swapping out the whole assemblies but the Armada is MIL Spec and I can only assume the Barra is Commercial because the Armada tube is ever so slightly larger than the Barra's. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ok. Here it what I did.
Went to General discussion forms.
Jumped to the very first page the back one. I seen some 1969 but that was not right then clicked on there names , and seen 2015 ect. So has this form been around for 10 years man a 10 year celebration is in order. Some of those guys were on here today.
Some only lasted a year. I whish I would have found this 10 years ago.
I'm 64 but have a love for airguns that can't be undone. It all came about when I was 7 then at 13 got that Sheridan blue streak at Monkey Wards.

Shot some JTS 25.39s out of zelos 22 . Ok 890 fps avg. Went on to 22.07 at around 820 fps. Not paying much attention and writing it down in notebook went to JSB 25.39s 770 fps ok … wtf. Shot the JTS 25s again, yup 890 fps. Get the scale out — 18.4 g

I'm experimenting with a .172 cal firearm barrel on my airgun and the guy who was making me ammo is no longer making the same style of slugs he was in the past.
Is there anyone out there that can make .172 cal slugs?

I was shooting, and in the middle of a magazine it just stopped working. Essentially, when the hammer dropped no air was released (as if there was no air in the cylinder). There was just under 3000psi in the cylinder though. There was no air leaking, and I was guessing that a valve was stuck closed. I tried topping off the cylinder to see if that would help, but no luck. I ended up taking it apart to see what was up, and found the small brass cone part of the poppet had broken in two. Thanks to the past here with the parts diagram (Thank you!), I know what to call at least some of these parts.





When I opened it up, the Valve Core Pin was free to slide back and forth through the Exhaust Valve Core, while the little cone bit in the picture above stayed sealed in place against the Exhaust Valve Core. This is why it acted like there was no air in the cylinder - when the hammer hit the Valve Core Pin, it slide though the Exhaust Valve Core, and even though it pushed back the Exhaust Valve Core Sleeve (white polymer part of the poppet) the brass cone bit stayed in place (sealing the valve). I assumed when poppets go bad, the polymer bit would be what breaks, not the brass bit.

The Notos is less than 3 month old, so I contacted Umarex, and we will see what they say. Hopefully they can just send me the tiny part (not ask for the whole airgun to be shipped back).

Before anyone asks, I haven't done any mods, the Notos is all stock. I haven't fired it without pressure in the cylinder (I hadn't ever had it empty since I first got is and filled it). The hammer spring is stock, and I have the hammer set pretty light (would rather have more shots as opposed to more FPS). I admittedly have shot it a lot since I like to sit down in the evenings and shoot 100 pellets of so at a time. I'm not sure how many tins of pellets I have gone through shooting cans in my back yard, but its a fair number. Still surprised how it broke though.

Hopefully I can get the parts quickly. I've really enjoyed the Notos.

My Pathfinder heard about the Atomics’ double kill and wanted to get some: All shots at 30 yards. The chickens pecked the crap out of one starling and made off with a sparrow… There were lots of them pest birds, but I was short of time. I will be punishing them going forwards…
