If you were wondering why I went to the trouble of fitting a new LW barrel to my Epoch here is why, I thought I would take some close up pics, there is practically no definition of any rifling and what is visible is uneven in both width and depth there is also a pic I found of a borescope that someone put down a barrel, and you can see the moon crater finish, but it looks better than the ones I have even so, there is also one pic of a LW barrel guess which one!

Yesterday I had one of those amazing airgun days.
First, I got to drive out into the countryside in Baldwin County Alabam.
Second, I got to meet up with a a fellow Airgun enthusiast.
Third, I got to play with some of the most beautiful Sheridan pumpers I’ve ever seen.
Best of all I learned a bunch!!!
And what the hell, I shot a beast of a Hatsan break barrel.

Thanks @Bear-of-Grayling !

Hi AGN, It's been a bit. I have a 22cal Hatsan Flashpup bolt action I bought 5+ years ago. Great gun,zero problems except for the magazines. witch is not a problem for me.
So,,,Hatsan has came out with an upgraded version of the Flashpup . A Flashpup S version.A Side lever. And I would really like to get it . Yes yes there are the synthetic versions here in America. "BUT" The USA distributor does not have the model I want and they say they can't get it." did they even try? " If you look on Hatsans main site in Turkey you will find the version I want. It has the the wood stock. Is there any way I can get it? I don't speak or read Turkey so I don't see how to contact them. Come on AGN,make my day.

Does anyone have one, what are your thoughts on the rifle.

I have 2 helo gen2 btr and I I like them .
Im hoping the cronus is noticeably clearer I know i could have got it cheaper to oopsso here i sit waiting anyone have cronus gen2 chime in if you like thanks

i just got my first Skout and I chose the epock compact because of it’s weight and size. im Coming from fx airguns I have an m3 impac, maverick and a dreamline and I have never been happier with an air gun the quick tuning is amazing not having to degas the gun to tune the reg is the best thing sense sliced bread I decided to max it out today and it shot a .30cal 68g slug 887 fps consistently that’s 118fpe out of a 17inch barrel that Is beast mode my 700mm m3 can barely pull off 125fpe .
this is my experience what power lvls are you guys pulling with the longer barrels

Dirty filthy pigeons! LOL

Shot and killed 10 starlings today, but could only recover the pictured six and the lone sparrow… All shots at 30 yards, sending CPHPs, TP on low for just under 20 FPE at the muzzle… They simply crumple when hit center mass…

I am selling my barely used FX PANTHERA. I purchased this in November of 2024. I came to the realization I prefer shooting .22. This is brand new. Comes with all the basics from a regular dealer.

My elevation was spot on, though admittedly the gusting conditions made the windage calls on the 100-150y shots a bit challenging. But overall, we crushed a ton of pest birds! I'll upload some individual video clips as I find time to splice them together.

#1 Crow 80y, Collared 40y, Starling 60y

For the tuning and setup process leading up to this hunt check out this thread in the PCP section.

Bought this last weekend thinking I had a .25 and wanted to add a .22 well I was wrong….I now own two in .22 so moving this one along.

It has a new Huma reg installed and at 130 bar with medium hammer spring is shooting the 18.13 at 915 with PLENTY more available if you want to tune for the Redesigns or slugs.

Carbon fiber stock, fill probe, 2 magazines and original Kalibrgun reg included.

Scope, rings, moderator not included.

1,000 and can split the shipping. PayPal for pmt.

nice Huntsman R .177 just in the classifieds if it was a bolt action i would be interested but it's a side cocker . oh well .

This is a MK2 that has a 500mm barrel in 25cal. It has a bigger bottle. I sent this off to one of the gurus of impact work here on AGN to go through. He rebuilt the reg and completely broke down and replaced every oring in the gun and tuned it originally for the Jsb mk2 34grainers. It shoots lights out. I had him put a saber tactical bag rider on it. An airmarksman medium backbone. He replaced all the screws with stainless ones. I had him put the FX impact mk 3 ambi cocking block and lever on it. It is set up on the left side for a south paw now. It has the K&L pellet probe block on it. It has the saber tactical check riser on it and the saber tactical pic rail on it as well. It has a new ball and spring in the valve adjuster, new power wheel spring(hammer spring). It has a black arts barrel band and the fx 2 screw barrel clamp on it. A 0DB moderator. One factory mag and 2 new mags and speed loader for it never used still in box made from a guy off of AGN. It will ship in fx case. Asking 1150 plus shipping to lower 48.

I had UA convert this M4 from a .22 pellet shooter to a .25 slug shooter. They installed a 700mm .25 Superior Heavy barrel/liner, and a .25 Slug Power Kit (probe, spring, hammer weight). I installed an AirMarksman Loki rail, Sportsmatch adjustable rings, Element Optics Nexus G1, Hawke Frontier Red Dot on a 45 degree offset mount (for 20y or less quick shots), a digital gauge (regulator), Impulse Air 1350, and an 580cc 300b AirMarksman bottle and valve. The goal was to make a relatively high powered (80-100 FPE) .25 caliber slug gun for hunting pest birds at the local Feed Lots.



If you're interested in learning how to tune an Impact this is a great video:

In a nutshell... I started by opening the valve return all the way. I started with the regulator about 120b and the QTS about 2. Then I gradually increased the regulator and QTS until I reached the desired velocity (actually exceeding it by 20-30 FPS), then I used the valve return knob to close the valve quicker which decreased the muzzle report, wasted air, and dropped the peak FPS by about 20 FPS. My reg is set at 155b, and the QTS about 3.5.

I was using the H&N 36g slugs for all the tuning. Once I had them "happily" shooting 1040 FPS, I cleaned the barrel using a Patchworm, and I took it outside to see how it would group at 50y.

To my surprise neither the H&N 34g, 36g, or the ZAN 35g, 37g would group above 1030 FPS. I left the reg and the QTS at 3.5 and went to work reducing the valve return. As soon as the velocity dropped to +/- 1000 FPS everything started grouping great.

By that time I had almost ran out of H&N 36g slugs so I changed to focus on the ZAN 37g slugs. They found their happy place at 990 - 1000 FPS. That gave me a solid 82 FPE with a BC of .107



I zero'd the Hawke Red-Dot for quick shots at 10-20y. I optically centered the scope, and then zero'd it at 42y using the Sportsmatch adjustable rings. I added the scope & projectile data into the Element Ballistic App and that gave me a zero hold at 30, 40, 50y, and hold-over after that.



I moved off of the bench and onto a standing tripod at 75 - 80y. I dialed the elevation turret to 1.0 and shot (2) 5 shot groups which was enough to instill confidence for the next days hunt.



I quickly connected and tested my Side-Shot scope camera



Then I pre-loaded a bunch of Stud Mag Loader magazines & Feeders, and packed up the rest of my gear.

I am saving up money for an FWB 65 and wondering what a good price would be for one in excellent, good, and fair condition.

does anyone have the contact info for Jan Kranner...
looking to get an FWB 124 worked on

Thank you

Want to trade my bejamin marauder .25 with buck rail moderator and scope looking to trade for a bullpup

Has anyone had problems with their barrel not locking? I have the latest model. The silver collar next to the red air breech spins around and prevents the barrel from locking in place. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.

But where to get them, most companies i find only sell like 100 min or even 250 for some sizes, and that is a bit more than i want to horde something i will not use very much.
And locally it seem even harder, which is just freaky to me even when i mean local as in the EU territory.

Where do you guys buy O-rings like 25 / 50 for a given size ?

A co worker picked one of these up a while back and has had some good feedback. We use it on hydraulic systems but the brochure says it’s good for air also. I’m real tempted on picking one up. They are quite a bit bigger than the average gauge but a few rifles have the space. I’m thinking of the bottom plug on an MK2 Rapid. https://phoenixsensors.com/products/wireless-pressure-transducer-weps04/

I looked thru the AAFTA rules to see if the was a minimum/maximum distance between lane stakes and I’d not see anything. I thought there was a rule for this. I went and read the WFTF rules and they have a one meter minimum spacing between lane stakes rule. I don’t really care if there is an AAFTA rule on this or not and not trying to stir up the pot. I have been working on an extra set of lane stakes for ASC to use at their GP/RoT match next month and Nationals later in the year. I got to thinking if there is a spacing requirement I would build a couple spacing jigs to make set up faster. Just figured I would ask to make sure I didn’t miss something in the AAFTA rules.

Looks fresh in the box new, only mod is flip up loading gate, and huben factory moderator adapter. Includes all factory parts, manual, case and tool bags . No blemishes. $1100 gun only or $1250 with hugget snipe moderator .

Hi,

This will be my first time taking part in a shooting competition, which is at a distance of 35 (sitting) and 50 meters (bench rest). I have an FX DRS .177 using H&N Baracuda 10.65gr pellets shooting at 830 fps apprx. This set up is pretty accurate at 20 meters (only distance available to me). Will it be useable for the 50 meter competition, or do I need to change anything here? Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Last night my oldest son and his wife and my middle son came over for dinner. Afterwards we went to the basement to shoot a bit. My daughter in law was born in Chicago and had never even shot a gun before and to my delight was eager to give it a go. She was shooting bullseyes right off the bat and was thrilled with the experience. By the end of our shoot each kid had cut a card. Everyone had a blast, especially me and I never fired a shot
