Hey all.

One more question I have that I’ve always wondered about. Forgive my repeated questions.

When I shoot I use an old camera tripod to rest the front end on while I am sitting in a chair. I find this works best for my back and neck.

In looking at all these PCP rifles and bull pups I see more and more that have the air bottle out front under the barrel. I’m talking about the ones that are more “bottle” shaped than the “tube” style that bull pups have.

I would like to know if it’s OK to rest your rifle like I would do with that bottle resting upon the tripod. Would it cause the seal to loosen over time? Would it be safe to do it that way?

It’s one of the reasons I have been unsure about the models that have the bottle mounted in the front. I’ve seen some of the nicer models have a bracket that’s mounted on the frame of the rifle and extends out several inches to protect the bottom of the bottle and give you a place to rest the rifle on your tripod.


Can you give some guidance on this and whether it’s ok to do or if it should not be done unless you have a bracket protecting it?

Thank you all again for your help and time.

Necessity is the mother of invention. Lack of warranty is another. Here's a series of videos I found on YouTube of good detail and quality giving the DIY-er direction to scope disassembly, modification and or repair and then reassembly.

I found them when looking for direction and instructions on adjusting the ocular bell lense housing to move parallax adjustment to the given value (see video Part III at 9m50s) My parallax was off by a few yards from the minimum yardage that I wanted to adjust down to. It doesn't take much adjustment to move the focus.

Hello AGN:

I'm looking to sell an Edgun 7.62mm Behemoth Tri-Lug Quick Detach Silencer / Moderator / LDC w/ 1/2x20 UNF threads. This LDC is designed to work with 0.30 and 0.25 caliber barrels; it comes with the standard 3 baffles and plus the end section (or 4 sections total). LDC is in excellent condition and is very easy to use thanks to the tri-lug quick detach, which allows you to quickly install or remove the mod from your rifle. Price is $125 shipped...

Thanks!

I am very interested in fx panthera hunter compact .22
I would like to know the length after using the AR Folding Stock and how long is it folded?

Here’s a photo of my Tactical pair. Beeman QB 2. 1085 .22 CO2 rifle and Seals 6-24 scope. Ready to be sighted in. Charles

I was fortunate enough to get a another big hog with my Maverick last night! I was shooting 90 grain Griffin BT HP around 950 fps. I put it right in his temple at about 30 yards. That's the distance I zero at, and try to set up close that when hunting. He didn't take a step, and dropped in his tracks. Not even a death dance, just a few lazy kicks. The hunt was pretty straight forward. My buddy said he had been showing up a little after 6pm the last few days, so I set up down wind and waited. Sure enough, he came in on a string at 6:15. All I had to do was wait for him to give me the temple shot I was looking for. Ping-POP and he was out! The real adventure started when I had to load him into the back of the truck by myself. His fat arse and my skinny arse made for me being sore today, haha. The gun has a 32" barrel, and that is the tailgate of my Maverick pickup for size reference. I'm guessing he was around 250lbs, since I didn't get a chance to weigh him. He was really fat though.

Unfortunately, his cutters were broke off, so no skull mount He had been fighting pretty good, and had a few cuts on his shoulders. Either way, he won't be making any more hogs. I think it's time to switch over to my heavy .177 slug barrel on this gun next

Short, affordable, and traditional.
Im looking for a short carbine, that is inexpensive and traditional in apperance.

Id prefer:

1. LESS THAN 41" OVER ALL LENGTH
2. LESS THAN $900
3. .22 or .25
4. TRADITIONAL LOOKING. (Wood stock, no bull pup)
5. ACCURATE TO 50 YARDS.

I have the following on my radar that are close, but are longer than I would prefer:

44" Avenger X
41" Aircuda Max
40" DAR Dynamic Gen. 3

There must be other options.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Anybody here have a .20 air rifle? What do you guys think of your .20 compared to your other air rifles.
Again I'm limited to sub 12ft/lb limit.
I'm thinking to exchange my 177 hw77k for a .20 hw97k but the problem is there's only 5 choices of .20 pellets in every store online that I checked in uk.

I only ever plan on having 2 air rifles so if I do get .20 hw97k then the hw77k has to go.

have one?

I've got a .177 air rifle already for target shooting in my garden etc. but I was thinking my 2nd air rifle should be in .22 for the occasional pest & hunting if needed. I'm limited to under 12ft/lb because of uk

Is it worth buying the pro sport in .22. I'm thinking to use the .22 at closer ranges under 40 yards. Do you think its worth it?
Which calibre is better? I know the .22 has more loopy trajectory and .177 shoots flatter but .22 would give me harder hitting power at close range

What do u prefer in sub 12 Ft power. A .177 or .22? Or should I forget the .22 pro sport and just use the .177 hw77k.

Well boys, I went and did it. I finally got my first NRL22 match win! I had been consistently placing in the top 3 lately but yesterday was my day and I actually won one out at Beloit rifle club.
I'll post a couple of cool pics below, but first, let's look at the match and I'll give you a breakdown on the stages:

Stage 1:

Ok for this first stage, there is a lot of moving involved so you're going to have to have a game plan. I shot a 10/12 on this one and made a silly mistake that almost made me time out. I ended up asking "time?" on the final prone position with like 5 seconds left and somehow blazed the last 3 targets in that time - but this is something you should avoid. The game plan here should be to have your heavy bag ready to throw on top of the tripod and leave it there. Then have your small bag ready (to use under your stock) and toss it down on the prone mat right off the get. My mistake is that.... I forgot my small bag.... Oopsie. No problem, I just balled up my left fist and used it as my rear bag when shooting the prone positions. Also, from 25 years of competitive paintball I have the habit of having bent knees in sort of a combat shooting form. This is something I have to consciously think about when shooting off tripods and things like the pyramid/A-frame - and make myself straighten/lock my legs. I did that yesterday and shot way better than my typical paintball/combat bent-knee stance. The two shots I missed were from the standing position, and mostly due to a hasty position of my heavy bag where it was sorta sloping down on the left side, causing a not-so-perfect situation... Oh, also don't forget about the mag change. I loaded 2 mags with 6 each so it would force me to mag change (I may have forgotten without doing that!)


Stage 2:

This one is a single position 10 rounder with an easy to remember sequence. The key here is to take your time and shoot S L O W! I scored a 9/10 here. One flaw I have, also another good habit in paintball but somewhat bad habit in NRL22, is that I shoot REALLY FAST. I finished in like 58 seconds when I could have doubled that time and really concentrated on making my impacts. My haste cost me 1 impact.


Stage 3:

I cleaned this one, 12/12! I was the only one to do this at the match. For gear I always use an Arca bag for the pyramid stages because I don't want to fool with moving a bag around and wasting time. I usually take the top rung positions on the pyramid because I like standing tall. This time, my lizard brain whispered to me "get low" right before the "Engage!" call so I took a position on the 2nd lowest rung on the left side to start. Used my backpack filled with pillows to get stable and made my hits, then went up one rung on the same side and did the same. On the 55gal drum, my Accu-Tac bipod is the key here, since the legs and be positioned backwards 45 degrees. That allows me to lay the rifle across the top of that drum and create a modified prone situation which is very stable. Easily hit all 4 off of that. Then I repeated my previous strategy on the pyramid but on the other side since no positions can be repeated. This proved to be a perfect strategy, indicated by my clean score on this one.

Stage 4:

Tank trap stages are always a challenge. For this one I got a 10/12 and made sure again to focus on the locked leg stance instead of my combat habit of bending my knees. The other strategy here, since a mag change is required, is to load 2 mags with 6 each so it forces the mag change. A smarter thing would have been to load the first mag with 4 and then the second one with 8 so I wouldn't have had to reload in the middle of the 3rd tip. Pretty simple stage but that was my strategy.


Stage 5:


I cleaned this stage. For the seat position I used my Arca bag and my backpack squish bag to support my position. When I transitioned to the top I basically just did the same thing and made sure my pillow backpack was put to good use to get real stable. Also, I normally NEVER dial but on this stage since the targets are only at 1 distance I simply dialed 4MOA and held dead on. Easy stage to clean if your fundamentals are good.


I only missed 5 shots all day! Hopefully me taking the time to type this analysis early in the month will help people who will be shooting the Feb COF this month! Now, as promised, here are a few pics from the match:

I've switched to a redwolf so I'll no longer be using this kit. This is an excellent 5 position adjustable power S500 Xtra FAC, regulated, in a brand new laminate Ultimate Sporter stock with fully adjustable cheek and padded buttplate. The original Superlite stock is included. This gun with the Lothar Walther barrel is laser accurate and an extremely capable field target rifle.

The terrific SubMOA Systems hamster completes the package.

I’ve taken a lot of large coons in the past couple of years with air guns mostly with the L2 with slugs. However, the new Zan Br 100 pellets have brought a new joy to fur hunting. The power pup dropped this 40 lb coon in his tracks at 50 yds. While the entry was not of slug proportions. The impact was much more significant. Looking forward to more heavy pellet offerings in the hades and Zan.

I suppose I will add this big boy to the air gun room of taxidermy.

Looking at purchasing an FX DRS Classic in .22 with the 600mm barrel. Doing some research on the inter web, I found three sources that have them listed for pre-order. I doubt I will pre-order and plan on waiting until they reach real peoples hands to see what the true reviews are, but was just curious about pricing. For this comparison, I chose the synthetic stock, .22 with the 600mm barrel because UA only lists the Synthetic stock, so to make it apples to apples, that's what I chose.

Utah Air's price after shipping and Route Package Protection (which is automatically added with no option to remove it) is: $1043.59

My High Pressure Pneumatics's price after shipping and (optional Route Package Protection) is: $1048.52

Top Air Gun's price with free shipping and (optional) Signature Required is: $1002.95

I know UA is a reputable dealer and now the US face for FX, but just curious if anyone has ordered a higher end airgun from either of the other two vendors and what your experience with them was like? Any red flags or things we need to know? Thanks...

The stock is in like new condition. The photos speak for themselves. Beautiful wood grain. Nothing like the warmth of wood. $215.00 shipped and very carefully boxed. PayPal friends and family please. Lower 48 shipping only.

This is my first post.
Can anyone give me any indication as to what my Theoben might be worth.
It is a.
Theoben Mk2 in .22 . FAC....... It is in absolutely mint condition. I have 2 buddy bottles, 2 Mags, Hawk scope, Moderator.

Many thanks.

Any one know of Shot show 2024 video's ? i have only found a very few from people i have never seen b4 ? I was hopeing AEAC would put out his usual 4 or 6 part vid , but understandably he is busy with family .
So far i have only seen 2 videos of products . Bummer !

.

Going through a bunch of stuff and trying to get rid of studd I'm not using. No scratches maybe minor minor use marks. $275TYD any questions feel free to message me.

Tony offers a nice selection of high-end airguns, and I am curious to find out what the majority of you would rate as your top 3 pick’s if you could choose anything from his inventory selection… please list (in order), which offerings would make your top 3 including the make, model, and caliber?

Anyone ever use these type of scope ring adapters?

I recently picked up a Arken scope with a 34 mm tube.
Id like to install the scope on a rifle with a 11mm dove tail...

Not many options for scope rings.
I see adapters like these, and unfortunately, it might be my best option.
Anyone have a better idea?

Hey all.

I’m wanting to move to a PCP this spring. I only shoot at paper and targets…no hunting. I’d like to shoot at distances from 25 to 100 yards…maybe longer in some settings.

I’d like to know what rifle or Bullpup would be the best choice under $750. I don’t mind USED stuff as long as it’s in good condition and doesn’t need work or parts.

If you were going to buy a sub $750 PCP for paper punching…what would you buy?


I assume that .22 would be the best, most economical pellet to go with at these distances…would you agree? I might be persuaded to go with a .25 though if I can be convinced it’s a better round.


Thanks for your help and time.
Have a good weekend.
