FX  FX Impact M3 - fired with bolt open

My buddy just purchased an Impact M3 from this site and was shooting it for the second time so it’s still brand new to him. He accidentally fired it with the bolt open and now it’s leaking at the first regulator gauge. He emptied the magazine (25 or so shots) and it functioned fine. It‘s still leaking air.

Where does he start? He’s a powder burner gun builder but new to PCP…

Any help would be appreciated.

N/A  Slow isn’t the word

Just picked up an order I made. Ordered 4 sets of Vortek springs on Dec. 26th.

I thought they were lost. Ordered springs from the UK 2 days after the Vortek order, got it 2 weeks ago. I could have driven there (Vortek)in just over 6 1/2 hours. The Pony Express would have been faster. Month + is ridicules. I called Tom yesterday but line was busy. This will be my first under powered set to install, going in a 95 .177, try it? Also one is going in a 97 .177.
‘All together since last winter I’ve collected 17 sets to install from 3 different manufacturer.

Now I have match up springs to a rifle. The fun begins. Crow

Pellets VS. Slugs Redux

So I was just reading a thread from back in 2022 about shooting pellets vs. slugs and what was the fascination with slugs. Many of the posters in the thread talked about no factory slug gun/slug combo that could out shoot pellets at that time? Have things changed since then 2 years later? The talk and buzz about slugs still seems as hot as it was back then but has anything changed to make shooting slugs a better choice than high quality pellets?

What new gear are you getting with your tax return refund?

The IRS has officially opened for filing.
If you are one of the lucky ones who anticipates getting a refund this year, what is the top new gear on your list to get with your check?

Stocking up on ammo? Getting the new rifle you haven't had the cash for? Third party accessories?

Huben  GK1 Perfected (v1 and v3 differences?)

GKP.jpg




The GK1P (Perfected) is almost finished, I need to check more tolerances with test prints and polish a few things, but you whould have it soon on cults along with my loading gate and moderator and treat correction mod.

In resume, is a new handle that eliminates the waste of space of the original (that protudes far beyond the upper slide) and incorporates an adjustable power wheel on the base with indicator (up to 4 revolutions, can be limited with add on piece to comply with local airgun laws), plus detachable rear stock, plus optional piccatiny rail down the tank, wich I found it pretty stupid but people like those.
I also changed the trigger system, now its press on instead of rotation axis, I like those more, less prone to double shot than the original I think, the rotation still happens and no extra pieces needed, the trigger itself push a rotation lever, that allow to place the trigger further, even made custom ones to fit position.

Now the things I want to know... I only have a V1, so all is based on that, It should work on a V3 as long as everything is on the same place.

Mi question... the power adjust valve on the V3 seems a bit shorter that in V1, that forces me to design a variable length power wheel, you use a real allen key fitted inside (just saw cut a little chunk of it, or 3d print one if you have acces to stronger plastics...) but I still want to know if the valve is on the exact same spot (just shorter) or not, cause if not I'm pretty much screwed.

Besides the allen key, you only need a shorter bolt to place it on the same spot that the original, you can cut the original... but better not to to destroy anything of a so much stupidly expensive pistol.

Are there any other differences on the down part of the gun beetween V1 and V3? caus I REALLY need to know that before put the thing to download.

[UPDATE] General Advice Dealing with Roll/Pins/Punches

Hello Friends!

I made a comment in a thread earlier today that made me realize I should probably ask the wider community for advice as we have tons of highly skilled tradesmen, crafters, and engineers amongst our ranks.

I’ve always struggled with pins, initially it was because I was worried I’d break something so I babied them (aka not enough force to get them to budge). But now I’m trying to remove the pin that holds the Leshiy 2’s “Locking pin” in place and I’m having an extremely difficult time ejecting it.

Do people have any sage advice regarding dealing with stuck or frozen pins? So far I’ve applied Kroil and confirmed it has seeped through.

Put a drop of Kroil in here
IMG_7572.jpeg


and it even made its way through as evidenced by the wet spots surrounding the other side of the pin and the locking pin

So far I’ve managed to get the pin to move by probably 2-3mm but it won’t move any further. Any advice is appreciated!

And just general tips or advice people have found to be useful when dealing with pins.

Thank you!

PCP Rifle  SOLD Snow Peak M60b .22 500 shipped

Snow Peak M60b .22

Shoots jsb redesigns like lasers and hits hard. Only had it about two months enjoyed hunting with it. Really just wanted to try out a budget gun and see how it measured up. Now with new toys on the way this one will get set aside.

The only change I made was bumping the reg up to about 150. This version has a foster fitting for fill instead of removing the bottle.

500 shipped. No trades

Cheap PCP vs mid end springer?

im looking to buy another new airgun (makes 5 this year I think...) im not looking to spend a ton of money on this one, Im thinking about $350 is going to be my limit. on the PCP side of things, the avenger is looking dang good, but what springer would anyone recommend at this price point? I have a couple gamos and a couple crosman break barrels and yea im not super impressed, not disappointed, just not impressed. would the Beeman r7 be a good option? I should probably add that the main use for this new gun would be small game hunting and pest control at moderate distances. are any of the Diannas any good?
