I currently do not have access to a quality sound meter thus my question:

Will the use of an oversized or bigger caliber moderator create a noise reduction benefit or is it just a waste.
Example high flow thunder ordnance.30 in a .177 application.
Would the same oversized moderator improve airflow behind the pellets?

I am getting familiar with my fairly new hw35, and eagerly awaiting my hw97 from AoA. Being retired, I am shooting every day and as this is my first springer, I am learning a great deal from the rifle and the kind folks on this forum. Not being blessed with any semblance of handiness, I tend to learn by trial and error, much too much error. Anyway, I survived my latest crises and learned that I did not, in fact, break two scopes in a row, in the same day. The great shot groups, followed by erratic groupings turned out to be loose stock and ring screws.

Despite having no skill with my hands, I have accumulated a large number of screwdrivers over the years, yet I seem to have none that are a proper fit for the screws on my hw35. Forearm screw, rear trigger guard screw, front trigger guard screw and Rekord trigger screw, I have screw drivers of reasonable width, but not thickness and/or shank length. It is clear I will need to tighten these things regularly, so I need to buy proper screwdrivers.

Can someone please tell me the specific sizes of screwdrivers I need?

Also, I have read here that I need my Sportsmatch rings to be about 30lbs torque for the bases and 15-18 lbs for the rings. How about the torque for the stock screws?

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

I was snooping today on my new compressor (while I'm impatiently waiting on the Avenge-X to show) and wanted to see how it ran so took the cover off. I noticed the small fan in the internal power supply wasn't running while it was pumping. Just curious if this is normal - ie it has a temperature control switch that kicks it on or if I need to do some EE on it. Anybody with the CS3-I, have you noticed if the power supply fan runs continuous or cycles? If this were my design, I'd have it run continously. I was running it from 120Vac. I guess it could be only needed for 12V input?

Afternoon and happy Labor Day Weekend.

I have way more airguns than I need, probably like most of us on this website. I hardly shoot anymore and sorta could use the $$ now that wife and I are retired and want to do some traveling in our recently purchased used 5th wheel camper.

I have 4, maybe 5 PCP's that I'm considering selling as a group collection. Here's what I'd like to put in the classified section here in a few weeks or so:

I'll make a solid plywood box for the rifles with plenty of protection from damage. The compressor which is very heavy and air tank would ship separately in a well built shipping box. I have another exact compressor to keep, they are really really good machines and super low noise.

I realize that this is something unexpected and unheard of, I guess, but I don't want to piece meal these out in the classified section here. I'll still have more than enough airguns to keep me entertained. None of my kids would be interested in my collection if I should kick over so I'd rather enjoy the exter $$ now rather than my kids selling them without a clue how to sell them.

Most likely I'll be asking less than half the original selling price I made which sounds dumb but I want a quick and easy sell.

No auctions are allowed here and I'm not interested in that so my asking price will be fixed.

When I place the ad in a few weeks I'll post a thread here, no photos or descriptions here in the General Discussion forum.

Long post.......but oh well.

I have a DFL Fatboy, with muzzle break, and two end caps 1/2 and M14. Basically new. Didn’t care for the bulk of it. Sold all together.
FOR AIRGUN USE ONLY. $250, shipping included within CONTUS

2 items first are to fake muzzel breaks one is 1/2 28 other is 5/8 24 asking 25$ each

Greetings.

I checked for a thread that discussed this topic but did not find any. I try to avoid redundancy if possible.

How do you guys clean your synthetic stocks? I have Marauders and a Crown and want to do things rightly rather than make an assumption. The cleaning I have in mind is a general maintenance one as there is nothing like sap, or glue, etc., on either gun. I just like ‘clean.’

It’s a simple question, but I am erring on the side of caution by asking. I am thinking soap and water, but who knows.

Thank you.

With the threads speaking of Extreme or Magnum Pistol running at 20 fpe & 30 fpe respectfully & 55 to 100 yard distances. They are BOTH being done as there own class / venues.

So how about Nurturing the use of Pistols during a regular 10-55 yard RIFLE Spec Field target match ?

Being the Rifle "FREESTYLE" rifle class had hit a brick wall .... The Rifle Open class is nearly dead around here, Lets take the idea of doing FT a different way and PLAY with a Pistol is lets say more an OPEN class sort of format.
I'm going to put out a news letter to the SVFTC members that spell out what class I'm going to promote here locally.

For now we'll call it OPEN PISTOL
Same size AAFTA pistol spec ... >25" oal / 3" Fore end ahead of trigger guard / 15" total barrel * Tho for now an LDC can be utilized for noise & comfort of other shooters.
Eye cup allowed, No shooting jacket or gloves allowed. No other attached miens of pistol support ( >20 fpe limit ) as we're still shooting >20 fpe targets !

Can sit any way you want be it Ground, Bag or low bucket / seat ( No backrest )
Use of a unattached Bi-pod allowed.
Any optic magnification, Clicking allowed.
THIS TO BE ALLOWED in 10-55 yard Rifle Spec & troyer matches.

Want a REAL Challenge having already done it 3 times in the last year ... It is HARD it is FUN and just mixes it up as too what amount of effort & skills practice each shooter can or wishes to deal with.

I have this Hatsan 22cal Flashpup. A PCP and it is maybe the easiest in my collection to shoot. The rest are classic long rifle style. So that got me wondering. Is there a bullpup springer? Is it even possible? idk

Thanks to one of the members here and our trade I’m a proud new FX Crown Owner.
Haven’t had much time playing with it but I am very happy with it initially. Can’t wait to stretch its legs on the farm this hunting season!

Not looking to really do anything specific with it besides enjoy it and my wife will take it when we go out and I’ll use the Gamo Magnum. Just loving the accuracy on this with the 18gr JSB but now I’m in desperate need of a portable compressor! Lol

Scope: 4-12 Hawke Airmax

Could I install the updated adjustable hammer spring in an MK2? It should work right? Only thing I won’t have is the front assembly part I have circled…and that’s only there to combat the loose hammer spring from the MK2 (if you recall you could move it back and forth).


Let me know. Thanks.

Does anyone know if Vern is still making grips? Sent him an email last week and haven't heard back. I haven't seen any ads anywhere for his grips in the last few months either. I want a set for my Crosman 1701P. I have several sets of his grips and all are works of art.

I placed an order with these good people yesterday at 10:22 AM. They are located in Galeton PA. It was shipped by Fed X. I received the package in Summerville SC at 1: 36 PM today. I ordered a Owl Ear front bag for my tri-pod and a pillow bag. Both of these products are made with quality leather and are tightly filled with sand. I will be doing business with this family owned company in the future. Try um. You'll like um.

Brocock Owners,
Having just purchased a used Commander XR I had no knowledge of how smoothly things should work. Inserting mag for the first time it felt cobby. Shot til empty and quite stiff to remove, Seemed odd. Reloaded and was able to insert for the second time, When empty unable to remove. I am not weak, I could not push hard enough to get the mag out. It took drift and a small hammer to drive it out. On inspection the center allen screw was backing out making the mag too wide. Worse still the internal spring had come loose. I performed some magic and all is good now. Take a close look at look at your magazines, Don't let this happen to you. What a smooth rifle these Brocock guns are, Great trigger, Power and Accuracy.

I received my new Scandinavian Arms (SA) tank bag today and boy is it sweet! The build quality and materials are top notch. Fits my Omega 74 cu. ft. (6.8L) tank perfectly. You can use it in both the upright or flat postions. It stands upright like a champ due to the reinforced bottom sleeve. The bottom side has rubber feet to prevent rolling. Well padded, well engineered. and great accessories pockets. The two side pockets are removable and even have elastic sleeves inside to hold pellet tins. Heavy duty carrying strap and handle with padding.

This is everything I wanted in a tank bag at a great price. Best tank bag out there by far, IMO.

I made a mess of the hammer screw on my Crosman 1322 while installing a steel breach. Despite multiple warnings about stripping the Phillips screw. I ended up having to grind the screw head off.

Surprisingly I did not have to drill out (easy-out) the whole screw. Once the head fell off, the remaining screw shaft unscrewed easily by hand. The old screw head revealed why - the screw was lock-tighted with blue lock-tight compound, but only under the screw head. There was no lock-tight in the screw hole.

Now that I have my new 2240 I want to avoid the screw removal problem. I think that this requires more than just using the correct size screwdriver. Can someone help me out with suggestions?

I have the crazy idea of using a cigarette lighter to pre-heat the screw before trying to remove it.
