  • Question
FX  New gun or modify existing?

Hey was looking for some opinions. Have an FX Impact M3 in the compact version. In 30/22. Wanted to get more into slugs so would you guys modify the compact for $700 ish or buy a dedicated slugger? Also own a huben in .25 and a prophet 1 in .22/.25. Plus some others in the mid range. Adding more guns seems like a waste of money ant this point. Also are the prophet RPB barrels competitive with FX barrels for slugs?

Crosman  Discontinued but not disregarded

The Crosman 1720t is highly regarded as one of the most accurate pistols made. Minute of fly’s ball sac. I’ve never considered buying the 1720t as a pistol as it’s too big for my taste. But when I saw one in a bullpup stock for a great price I jumped on it. Took me a bit to get used to the bullpup stock, it’s not the most ergonomic. After I figured out a comfortable hold, I was able to shoot tic tac sized groups consistently (@ 25 yards). The dfl Koi that came with it makes it so all you hear is the hammer hit the valve stem. It’s currently set up to shoot 10.3 gr dome pellets at 750 fps for 40 shots. It’s so fun shooting this little pup that I don’t mind the single loading or the rear cocking bolt. Don’t know why crosman discontinued this gem.

Lubing with Gunzilla

I've had a couple of barrels that benefit from Gunzilla lubed projectiles...

I just found a couple tins I lubed maybe 18 months ago in this state....
PXL_20230830_064547330.jpg


Luckily it's only one full tin, and a couple tin remnants like this one.

The carrier in Gunzilla seems to have gassed off, leaving the solids. This looks like oxidation but isn't, as it can be wiped off easily. It's almost like a toothpaste consistency.

I was warned of this but hadn't yet encountered it myself.

I'll still use the Gunzilla as a lube and especially as a barrel cleaner, but will be more careful not to get too far ahead of my active consumption with lubed projectiles.

2023 N50 Nationals, NRA Whittington Center, Raton, NM is history. Constant threats of thunder storms made us nervous but good weather prevailed. Every late afternoon met us with thunder and lightning . Saturday morning gave us surprising strong switchy winds and Sunday's conditions were more pleasant.
Really nice folks (old & new) in this sport - I'm happy to call them all my friends.

Sorry guys.. It was dumb to post only the top ten. The reason - I was tired and that's my "excuse". I apologize.

Benjamin  Killing Tree Prod

When I bought my current home in 2013 it had one large oak tree on one side of the back yard and 6 on the other side. Squirrels would normally go up the one tree and sometimes jump to the closest tree on the other side while up in the trees. For 7 years I killed a bunch of squirrels out of that one tree. Sometimes I got on from the trees on the other side but the one tree, I called it my killing tree, was the primary location of squirrels when I shot them. My Prod was my main airgun during the time that tree was alive. It's killed 15 squirrels, most of them out of that tree. My Avenger also got one and my P35-25 got many of it's 18 out of that tree. I'll include a sunset picture of the live tree and a picture of my then 3 year old grand daughter standing beside the tree after it fell.

It fell mainly into my neighbors yard and I hired a tree service to get rid of it but asked them to leave what was left of the stump. I cut that up into slabs that I then dried. First I used a piece to make a buttstock. Then I made grips. Last week the 2 inch thick piece I wanted for the forend was down to about 8 per cent moisture content and I made the forend completing the stock. Because it came from the stump of a dying tree the wood is highly figured and there is some spalting. That is the white areas although not all the very light colored wood is spalted.

EDgun  Based on the thread "L2 explouse in UK".

Dear friends, users of EDgun products, haters of EDgun products, those who doesn’t care but is interested in what, in fact, happened in UK in the beginning of this year.

Shortly:

  • There was an information bout the case in beginning of February 2023.
  • Dave, the owner of exploded L2, was so kind that arranged the shipment of the remains to Russia.
  • I got them in the beginning of the summer and then made the contract with the special laboratory to make the test.
  • At the end of summer I got the results.
Here are the conclusion of expert, in Russian, that is understandable 😊, for those who wants to make the precise translation – Google translator will help you, no doubt.

For those who wants to know only the final parts it sounds this way:

  • Expert failed to find some production or metal fails which could lead to the explousure. Conclusion – the material, processing and manufacturing is OK.
  • Based on the examine expert found out that there are much remains of the oxygen in the area of corrosion.
  • The destruction started from the corrosion spot.
  • The material of both reservoirs, the remains and the test one was tested to meet the standard according to the chemical proportion. It is D16T, as it should be.
Based on the conversation with the expert I can say, that they have no tools to find out what was the reason for starting the process of the corrosion, but he said that misuse of the owner could be a reason. He underlined that using the compressed air with the moisture in it (that usually happens while using the small compressor and hands pumps without the proper dryer), can lead to that result.

Unfortunately, the moisture with some addings (like oil and so on) in the conditions of the high pressure can be very aggressive to the alum alloy.

That is why I, personally, avoid using undried air and use ONLY air from the tanks, filled at the fire department or dive centers, who use air for breathing.

My recommendation to those who has no possibility to use dry air and have to use small compressors or hand pumps – use the best dryer you can find and make the check-out of the inside surface of the reservoirs on the constant base.

From my side, as the manufacturer, I cannot see any mistakes, which was confirmed by this expertise and with my light heart keep going on making the guns using all necessary measures to make them as safe as possible.

With the best regards

Ed

Tuning  HW50 177 & Vortex scope

So am having an issue with getting my HW50 in 177 zeroed.

Backstory: Bought the gun used from a fellow member here. Gun looks great barely used, has an upgraded Vortex kit.

Purchased TO4C rings for the gun based off of suggestions here from pyramid air.

Purchased vortex 4-12x40AO scope new from B&H. Went with Vortex over Hawke due to VIP warranty.

Mounted said scope and rings on gun and tried to zero and scopes elevation was bottomed all the way up at 20 yards to get a 1.5-2” low zero.
IMG_6230.jpeg


Took everything off today and double checked rings and ring tension. Re zeroed scope and same issue. Scope has to be cranked all the way out to the Upper limit for a 1” or so low zero at 20 yards.
IMG_6247.jpeg


Gun shoots great. Tested 2 pellets and shows great consistency. Even with the low zero I am able to make hits out to 50 yards.

Rock at 50 yards on fence post.
IMG_6244.jpeg



So my question is what am I missing which is requiring the scope to be cranked all the way up to be zeroed?

Someone mentioned barrel droop in my scope thread but the gun does not appear to have that issue. Is there a way to measure for that? If it is barrel dropping how do I fix it?

IMG_6240.jpeg



The only 2 things I can think of is something is wrong with one of the rings causing a zero issue. Or scope is defective in some way.

I measured the rings and both seem to be the same size from receiver to bottom of scope. They were taken off and inspected today and reinstalled.

I also cranked the turret down 12 clicks and the response was reflected on the target so it appears the scope is properly tracking.
IMG_6249.jpeg



Seems as if I have 2 options. Send the scope back to Vortex, or shim the front ring to gain more elevation and rock on.

What’s yalls thoughts on the issue?
If shimming the front ring what’s the best way to do that?
Was thinking of a small strip of electrical tape in the bottom of the front ring.

Wear your PPE!!

I was degassing my AEA HP SS by loosening the pressure gauge. Then, with a loud pop the gauge blew apart! I was NOT wearing my protective eye wear. This was a very unexpected event to occur in respect to what was done. I am very fortunate to not have been struck by the shrapnel.

WEAR YOUR PPE.

New Member from Oregon

Hello everyone! New member here trying to get my ten post to buy my first air rifle off of the classifieds.

I apologize if this topic has been beat to death but I’m looking for some advice. I have a budget of $400 to purchase my first rifle, and about $100 for a pump. Oregon does not allow big game hunting yet but does allow for coyote management. I’m needing some advice on what I should be looking for at this price range. I.e cal and even better if you can point me at a specific rifle or brand. We have a pretty big problem with coyotes on our farm. And in the area in general. I’m backed by about 5k acres of timberland.

Thank you everyone.

HW/Weihrauch  Too good to be true

I took my HW90 .20 out on my range this morning. As usual I was stunned by its performance. Once zeroed it was flawless.
IMG_6577.jpeg
Odd for me to say, because a HW90 .25 was the first Weihrauch I bought, absolutely hated this gun. Sat on wall after, for 2 years.
A member Jayjay did a post on the 90 which blew me away. That’s when I bought the HW90 .20 and the pump and gauge. At the same time I bought a few Weihrauchs, so again the 90’s sat and waited.
On a post of mine a member Frogy kept posting his 90 .22 cal. how awesome it was at 18 bar. Finally gave me the drive to dig out the 90’s. I put mine at 18 bar, presto, you wouldn’t think it’s the same gun.
‘Love the triggers, on the .25, it went from a danger to a dream. All I did was turn it down to 18 bar. No explanation.
‘Cutting a 10 oz. Mushroom can in half hanging by chain 30 yds. Best with a 97 .22 was 38 shots. The 90 .25 blew that away with 34 rounds. With the 90 .20 today, killed it at 30 rounds. What a gun.
IMG_6579.jpeg

I’m not sure which model was a Beeman, like to see a few. If you have one, or a 90, love to see your gem. Crow

PA FIELD TARGET PICS HERE!

I haven’t seen too many pics yet of the FT event, so thought I would just post the few that I took. If anyone else has any please feel free to post them. I myself had a blast in the Benchrest and Field Target and really wish I would’ve entered the gunslinger “ springer” event.
