  • Question
Rendering a Huben K1 "safe" at the range?

I'm contemplating getting a Huben K1 but I'd like to take it to my local firing range, where they would expect it to be "rendered safe" when not in use. Usually for conventional firearms this means safety on, unloaded, and chamber open.

What's the closest I could get with a Huben K1? Based on my understanding of how the gun works, the best I can do is empty the magazine and put the safety on; is there some way to obviously render the gun "safer" than that? Without being able to remove the magazine and without a bolt to hold open, what could I do?

Best Barrel Sleeve Material?

Hi Y'all,

When talking about sleeving barrels (i.e. epoxying a sleeve to the barrel to make it stiffer), what is the "best material"? I'm particularly concerned about exacerbating any temperature sensitivity.

I know carbon fiber is the go to, but is there any particular reason why that is chosen over aluminum or steel? Aside from weight of course. What is the ideal gap size between the barrel/liner and sleeve? I know fitment needs to be close but not so tight as to prevent epoxy from filling the gap.

Thinking about adding a barrel sleeve to a rifle and before I go carbon fiber as I have in the past I wanted to see what other thoughts were out there.

Thanks,
Nico

Another tale of the 20

The 20 cal pellet gun has been popularized in the 80s by Robert Beeman and many attribute the continued existence of it to him. As far as I know, it was first introduced with the creation of the Sheridan A Model in 1945. From what I can remember, the designer chose the 20 so that no inferior ammo would be used as was common with the 177 and 22 of that era. He was striving for the best air rifle of that time. All Sheridans models have used the 20 cal since.

Fast forward quite a bit... I purchased 5, 5mm LW barrels that were left over from the Sterling springer rifle project when it was moved to the USA, then quietly faded... I seem to remember it being in the late 90s. A couple of years ago, I fitted one to @Franklink's Vet Short and he has been quite happy with it and has documented it well.

Sooo... I decided to use one to try on my Delta Wolf /Ghost. I fitted it so that the 22 bolt and magazine would be used. To say it is amazing is a bit of understatement.

So on Saturday , a friend came over to plink and we had a great time with a number of air rifles, including this 20 in the DW. At the end of the fun, I put 5 standard clay pigeons out at 208 yards on a sand dune in my range. We shot at them a LOT with several 22s with MRD's, my 30 cal Safari w 51 gn, and this 20. Now the wind on my range is QUITE tricky because of the tree spacing and wind direction but I'm sure we lobbed well more than a hundred rounds at those 5 pigeons. Both the 22s and the 30 would group around them but randomly have 1 that was FEET away. It was somewhat frustrating actually, but we were determined. The little 20 w 15.89s was the only one that kept them tight around the pigeons and the final was 4 for the 20 and 1 for the 30.

Now I've related some impressive long range shooting with Wally, my RW, but on this day, even Wally was throwing them out feet away on frequent occasions. Keep in mind that ALL of these were quite good on that day at 100.

I'm definitely not trying to convince anyone of the need for a 20 or that it should be a long range consideration... just relating an IMPRESSIVE display of predictability and consistency.

It was a fun day 😁

Defense against racoons?

Hello. New member here. I have been battling racoons getting into my garbage, knocking over the cans even when I put five bricks on top, gnawing through fasteners to keep the lid closed, etc. and I was ok with that. But now, they just destroyed a brand new screen door (ripped the screen, broke the skirt), got into my sun room, got their dirty paw marks on everything, left me a giant poo and pee to clean up, and I'm done playing nice.

So I got my Leshiy 2 REPR .30 cal ready to go to war. I've seen racoons dispatched with this gun on Youtube but I'm wondering if more people have experience putting down larger animals like this with this caliber? Do I need a headshot or will double-triple tap be enough?

I'm planning on getting the new 9mm version but it's expensive so I need to sell all my air guns to get it. :oops:

GOOD BYE HAND PUMP

I am a newbie to PCP'S . I am 55 years old. Only took two times using a hand pump to treat myself to lazyness or just plain smart.
I got my first PCP last week. A 22 cal. JTS Airicuda Max.
So impressed with the rifle when I saw the new compressor from JTS with upgraded interior cooling fans and water separator on youtube , I ordered one.
This morning I used if for the first time.
I was surprized how quiet it actualy was.
I am going to keep my hand pump for back up but I am pretty sure it is going to sleep for a long time.
VERY HAPPY with JTS Products.
I better start ordering more pellets.

This is an upcoming show from an attorney I follow. All he does is use of force law. This show is about using BB guns ( title) but prob air rifles in general for use of force defense. Think it will be interesting.

MOD Edit: Link Removed. AGN does not condone the illegal, unethical or self/home defense use of Airguns.

Why did they quit makin' these???

Next to the Taipan Veteran (1st gen) the Daystate Huntsman Regal bolt action is my next most favorite PCP...their size weight looks dependability accuracy, I mean ACCURACY!!! Several interesting points to this thread...Yesterday conditions were WINDY...18 MPH L to R and gusty...but like fishin' either fight it or don't do it...I wanted to shoot...I resolved to do a simple shot count with a Huntsman Regal .20 calber, just for something to do. I shot off bags which is rare for me, had to hold gun to keep it from being blown off the bags! From the start grouping was FAR better than expected @ 30yds using JSB 13.73s running 825ish considering the wind, so good in fact I stopped and cleaned the barrel aired it up to 250b and got serious. Using a freshly opened tin I shot a 30 shot group than a 20 shot group to back up the first group. I have an FX 6x18 scope on it...heavy but nice looking...I always knew this Regal was a shooter...never shot it much being such a hard to find caliber...trigger isn't even tweaked yet...unbelievable...it just kept puttin' them in there...30 and 20 shots and was still going but my eyes were fuzzing out...old age you know...I did shoot a .177 10 group with my .177 Regal in the same conditions for comparison...10.3s at same 825fps same 30yds with predictable results...wind was down to 14 mph. These .20 cal

20230502_122703.jpg
groups would be noteworthy on a calm day...Such a shame the .20 Huntsman isn't offered any more...don't get me started on the .20 calber lol! This was a fair accurate test...a testament to a great gun....20 calber pellet in the wind...and pretty fair marksmanship if I say so myself...had a great shoot in spite of the wind...Why did they quit makin' these things????

China side lever?

I freely admit I did not know how to use search for these questions. Woe unto me!
I bought a china side lever gun at the flea market. It looks to be in fair shape. I cleaned it and lubed what I could reach on the outside.
When I went to shoot it things went down hill a bit. It seems weak in the power dept. I also have no idea where it is shooting.
Is there a rebuild kit for these things,I looked on ebay and did not see anything.
Did these guns have a safty? Please tell me anytjing you know about these guns. I already know they are pretty much junk so you don't have to tell me that.
Thank You

Ok, this is not an airgun but it shoots pellets in the air and other things.

I bought this Slingshot several years ago and it is extremely accurate and totally fun to shoot. I put the laser and light on only because I could, not that they will ever be used.

The mallards just dropped in so I had my wife take a snap shot. No, it's not duck season and I did not fire. :)

I have Stainless shot and plastic balls to sling off. All fun. And yes, I'm big and fat. :)

PCP Rifle  SOLD WTS HATSAN .45 HERCULES BULLY. $125.00

This rifle used to work great but all of a sudden the cocking lever will not lock in full position. I've looked at some how to fix on this site and I tried that. It worked then it didn't by adjusting the screw for the trigger. I've had it with this gun and will sell it for $125.00 which includes shipping in the lower 48 which could cost between $50 to $100. All I ask in return is if whoever decides to buy this and is SUCCESSFUL in solving the problem to please let me...us all know what you did. It has the muzzle adapter for the DFL suppressor. It was a dead on power hitting gun when alive. I thinking have 4 mags to boot.

I'll accept personal check, no sweat.

Let’s here your opinion, I find this maddening

22 yrs ago I had 3 Diana’s 24. .177 about 410 fps. Is not the fps a problem because I didn’t have a licence to own a gun over 500 fps. Two of the 3 guns the safety housing cracked.
2004 I had to get a gun license, the Government wanted my dad’s guns.
I went to a gun shop and bought a Diana 34 classic .177. Same safety I was bummed out when I saw it and it cracked. I gave a 24 away, traded one for 12 pitas. 😜 and sold the 34 classic, disappointed with plastic breach and safety.
When the 54 Pro came out, had to have a red lam. Took a month to get here and pricey. When I opened the box, it’s probably the longest I ever balled my eyes out. The same plastic parts as the classic.
Now I have a few Weihrauch’s Air Arms and FWB. Don’t recall plastic parts on any of them.
It doesn’t end there. The few months back I pick up two used rifles a Diana 34 premium .177 and a 460 rsw .177. Both these rifles have a different barrel breach. I would take either one on the 54.
The 34 premium is very accurate with a good punch. JSB 10.34 impressed with this one.
Here’s the 54. Plastic
IMG_5495.jpeg
Here’s the 34, steel
IMG_5496.jpeg
Here’s the 460, steel
IMG_5497.jpeg

I’d have more of their rifles if it wasn’t for this.
IMG_5493.jpeg
And I have to mention the safety. Joke IMO.
IMG_5486.jpeg
I like my guns with no plastic, I find it’s cheesy. The guns are all deadly accurate and hard hitters.
But why can they make a breach for two guns ( both different )from steel and not for others? Crow
What do you guys think?

EDgun  Deep scratch on Lelya 2.0 air cylinder

I'm in the process of fixing a leak on my Lelya 2.0. Eventually, I tracked it down to the gauge and contacted EDgun West about it. They were unresponsive, so I turned to EDgun Shop and ordered a replacement gauge from them. That one arrived with what looked like corrosion on it, so I returned it for a Wika, which arrived yesterday. Today, I slid out the air cylinder as carefully as possible so I could degas it and install the new gauge. Upon inspection, I noticed two ~44.5mm parallel scratches on it, with one of them being deep enough to catch my fingernail. Had both been superficial scratches I'd chalk it up to me removing the cylinder. But the deep one concerned me. Something like that would require considerable force. And then there's the issue of them being the same length and completely parallel to one another. It looked like something had repeatedly and consistently scraped across the surface.

IMG_1795.jpg

With these ideas in mind, I took out the calipers and began measuring. One of the first things I noticed was two pins sticking out of the carriage assembly. I measured them.

IMG_1804.jpg

They're approximately 10.84mm apart. Next, I measured how far apart the scratches were.

IMG_1805.jpg

Ah, there we go. 10.84mm on the dot. But what about length? Why would both scratches be ~44.5mm long? Can you guess how far the carriage travels when you cock the gun? That's right! About 44.5mm! But why is one deeper than the other. Well, I almost always grab the left lever when cocking thereby tilting the carriage more to that side.

So, at this point I'm not sure what to do. I'm afraid to fill it, especially considering what happened to that Leshiy. EDgun West ghosted me when I brought up a faulty $30 gauge, so there's no way he'd offer a much more expensive air cylinder. And even if I got a replacement, wouldn't the same thing happen again? Man, the Lelya was supposed to be something I buy and not worry much about it. I really like the form factor, but this thing has so many little problems. Maybe I should've bought something else. In any case, do I fill it up and chance it?

PCP Rifle  NLA WTS Brocock Sniper XR .22 Sahara

WTS Brocock Sniper XR .22 Sahara 32.25" long without silencer, 17" barrel, 7.3lbs and 480cc bottle, factory color, not painted($1,499 value). Purchased from Airguns of Arizona new by me on 01.08.2023. No adjustments or modifications to hammer spring, regulator or trigger. Have not adjusted the power adjustment selector either, just shot the following pellets on high a few times to see what they measured over my chronograph: JSB 18.1 grain @ 805 ish fps, JSB 15.9 grain @ 840’s fps, Predator GTO 11.75 grain @ 910’s fps. Pellets were not weighed, lubed or sorted. Airguns of Arizona chronograph shows: JSB 18.1 grain @ 810’s fps. Item is mint and holds air, have not inserted the fill probe into the air rifle or threaded it to anything. I have not done any long term or comprehensive accuracy testing, the air rifle came filled with 200bar from Airguns of Arizona and I’ve shot it down to about 100bar. Comes with factory box, papers, 0DB 110C silencer ($149 value), one 10 shot factory magazine, three 9 shot CARM magazines ($90 value), two single shot CARM loaders ($60 value), one factory single shot loader, one Magpul 1913 Picatinny Bipod ($100 value). If purchased everything new you would pay easily $1,898. Will sell everything except scope and rings in photo for $1,300 firm, PayPal’s and Shipped to lower 48, friends and family. Will not part any items, not looking for any trades. Only selling because I hardly shoot and any shooting I do I can do with my break barrel. Flawless feedback here under Sedac.

What’s up with the very thin airgun barrels.

I have noticed that many airgun barrels are so thin. Is it because there are less pressure than powder guns. I disassembled my pp700sa and my god under that shroud is a pencil thin barrel. I can’t even see the crown. Also with the muzzle end being threaded there is not much room from threads to crown that the edges of the muzzle is ragged. I have to take the sharp edges off and re crown barrel with brass cone and lapping with valve grinding paste. I’ll take pic of that. Second I used my barrel camera to look inside OMG I don’t know why this barrel shoots lights out with the way it looks.

Surprised how quickly my PCP rifle sold on AGN.

I know that new members here must have "X" # of post before they can sell something. I sort of thought that was silly because I didn't think stuff sold all that much in the classifieds. Man-O-CanO was I wrong!

Last week a placed an ad for my LCS SK-17 and got hits within a few hours and that puppy was SOLD in 24 hours and is on its way to AZ.

Just a few minutes ago I placed another add for my HATSAN BULLY .45 for $125. It needs some TLC that I'm tired of trying to fix. I'm not a gunsmith I guess.?? :)
