I posted some work with the AA 10.3's previously. I don't shoot 8.4 grain as often but they do pretty well. Here is a video using my TX200 MKIII in .177 (FAC) after being rebuilt with standard AA FAC parts. There is an addition of a 3MM washer in front of the top hat. This washer is supposed to help smooth out the shot cycle when using heavier pellets. I think it helps, but it could be a placebo.

I am running a Vortex Diamondback Tactical ffp 6x24 50mm scope. I am shooting from a bench using an Allen rest with a Protektor front and rear bag. This video checks out the AA Field Diablo 8.4 grain pellets at 50 yards. These are 4.52mm head sorted to 8.4 grains. There was some wind at times. There was also a biting fly attack, which messed with me while shooting target 1. I didn't delete nor make excuses. The video does have a time log and it is noted in the time log. There are 3 bulls. The sighter target has 5 shots for the 5 shot crew. Target 1 has 12 shots as I threw one and felt 1 needed a redo do to the attack. One is an opening flyer, and the second flyer following the bug attack. Target 2 is a standard 10 shot bull.

This is an update to some older posts of mine with new information about the defective bleed valve on the small Tuxing filter with the shutoff valve on it. If you buy this part, be sure to replace the bleed valve assembly with a better built bleed valve so as to not have a dangerous situation where the bleed screw can shoot out of the fitting under pressure like mine did.

If you want to be able to keep remove a filled gun from the fill whip without having to dump all the air in your water trap / filter just add these inexpensive components and you are good to go.


Diagram of where everything goes.




As noted above, be sure to replace the defective bleed valve on the silver Tuxing filter with something like this. I think that mine ended up being M10 but you never know what you are going to get from stuff off Aliexpress. Check it first.

Link to the part on eBay.




With all those items in place you can remove guns / tanks from the setup without losing pressure in your water trap AND restart your compressor with no load on it, saving quite a bit of time when filling multiple items in a row vs bleeding out the water trap every time. My double tube water trap takes longer to fill than most of my guns! Now there is no more waiting for it to fill.

Yes, it felt like a massacre of the starlings with so many of them getting blown up with my Impact shooting the 25gr H&N slugs.

Enjoy.

Hey guys. I have an odd problem which I have never experienced on any of my rifles and I need some help. If anyone had the same problem or if they now what it could be please chime in.

Backstory:
A friend purchased his first PCP (AEA Challenger Pro .22) and he wanted to make a nice photo of it. He put it on a fireplace mantle and of course the gun fell on the floor.
The damage he did (or at least that I can see) is that the barrel is bent downwards. No big deal as I've printed him a barrel band to center the barrel.
Everything else seems fine except the power. When the gun first came the reg was set to 90. His rifle is the new model with an external adjustable regulator. As the manual still shows the old rifle he didn't want to tinker and brought the gun to me to fix and check. Well the gun spews bullets. They reach maybe 4fpe on a good day with 300fps. So something is wrong.

What I did:
I tested the gun with my chrono (yes it does work properly) and it's true. You can see the slow ass bullet when it gets shot and the gun is quiet. No bark as some people mentioned.
I turned the reg from 90 to 130 and all the way up to 150 and there are minor changes to speeds (maybe 50fps). I changed the springs and the result is the same. So it doesn't matter if I use the hard (orange-ish) or soft (black) spring. Transfer port is on max by the way but I have tested it on all settings with same result.

Then I tore the gun apart and checked everything and I do mean everything (well I didn't open the reg as the reg gauge shows the proper number based on two different gauges so the plenum should have the proper amount of air). I even swapped out the gauges in case they got damaged. I can't find anything wrong with it.
The only thing I did find out is that the gun is so weak I can plug the barrel and the air won't come out of it and it will blast backwards that's how weak the gun is. I wouldn't do that on any of my rifles but there's clearly something I'm missing.

I have shot a few blanks to see if the air is leaking somewhere else but it's not. At least I can't find it. Also all the orings are in perfect condition (duh since the doofus broke a day old gun).

So if anyone has some insight please help.

Thanks and have a great day.

Selling an RTI Prophet Performance with the Walther Long Range barrel. Bought used from Airguns Of Arizona in April. I like the Gun just not using it. Comes with one 11 round original magazine and one 16 round, bought from Orion the Iguana Hunter. One Amazon bipod, a suppressor from Buckrail and a cheaper Monstrum scope.
Asking $1000 shipped.

Pretty much I would not need it for anything else.
Only to see if my pellets/slugs flying error free from the tune = no corkscrewing. So pretty much "one time use".
So far I could not justify spending $500+ for the rig, but also I stoped my club membership and have no longer access to multiple distance ranges to check the tune on every 5 meters if hits the same X.
Anything inexpensive cam on horison that can do slow mo in quality?

Couple going in the mail tomorrow. I need to take better pictures.

182 mm x 40 mm at 5 and 1/4 oz 30 caliber: 5 Tesla Baffles and one diffuser/stripper. FDM printed endcaps, resin printed baffles. EZtap steel insert.

103 mm x 30 mm at 2.15 Oz 17 caliber: 4 Tesla Baffles and one diffuser/stripper. Resin printed endcaps, FDM printed stripper/diffuser, Helicoil insert to accomodate a very short thread on the gentleman's rifle.

The Mav is resting @ FX waiting on the boat from Sweden. I jest, of course. Talked to tech today. Promising to get on it as soon as part of arrive. Cocking rod guide broken along with hammer spring. Only 2nd one he's seen break.
So I got a real gun. Kelly @ Krazy Kool set me up with a 25 limited. Whata gun!
Light enough to walk & stalk.
286 yds @ a 3" spinner. Been watching them forever but wanted the glitches out of them. This is a slug gun.254 diameter.
Of course a lot more dependable @ 100. All day bangers.

I peruse the Classifides virtually every day. It amazes me that very few springers and CO2 ever cross the auction block any more. Are they highly sought after and therefore not for sale or are people losing interest in them?
Thoughts?

listing my maverick that is just sitting. its currently set up in 177 but i have the barrel kit for .25 caliber. you can pick either caliber or both. it comes with 1 magazine in each caliber. im asking $1200 shipped + $ if you want the 0DB moderator. if you want the other barrel kit we can work out a package deal. im also willing to trade for something modern of similar value like a daystate, BRK , wildcat BT or even a krait. im open to offers also.

Is there an email address for John Thomas(the tuner)?

Helping a buddy get into the pcp hobby that’s left handed. I understand fx has the M3 test can be set for left handed cocking but now the aftermarket gets involved to move the mag to the left side, which I want to avoid especially for a starter gun.

What are the guns out there are benchrest worthy, that come either with fixed left hand cocking or can be made to be left hand friendly, with no issues of the mags getting in the way? I’d like to put together a list to present to my friend so he can look at his budget to see what works. After I had told him about my RMAC trip he showed enthusiasm in attending that event for next year.

Thanks, all

Groups? I'm really curious what you guys get at 60-75 yds plus....please let me see the target and gun used . This weekend I'm going to try 75 yds with my tx and hw97 for some fun.

Just before the months end!


…and you can too

I I live about 60 mile south of Chicago and the smoke and haze is so thick I can't even go outside!! Never seen anything like it!!!Hopefully the wind will shift and clear out some of it..

LIKE NEW DAYSTATE COLTRI COMPRESSOR 110 30 AMP 10 HOURS ON IT FROM NEW. HAVE ALL PAPERWORK ORIGANAL BOX. EXTRA OIL AS THIS ONLY HAS HAD THE RIGHT OIL IN IT, CHANGED OIL EVERY 3 Hours JUST TO KEEP IT CLEAN, WAS 2600 1700 OBO SHIPPED NO TRADES POST PICTURES LATER

Can anyone tell me what barrel krait uses? CZ berrel ? square or circular rifling ? Who owns the krait please give me some pictures of the barrel's rifling. 1 or 2 ?

Up for grabs is original Prophet Performance 1 .22 with the long range barrel. It shoots the .22 JSB monster redesigns light out at 970s. This thing has been just begging to be shot, but just been busy with other projects. It has been the most reliable gun that I have owned yet and incredibly robust. The gun comes with an externally adjustable flex regulator. The reg is not pretty but all the gauges work great. The deal from the guy that didn’t know what he was doing was just too good to pass up on the reg. This thing is a hunter and darn good at it. Shooting prairie dogs from 10 yards to 175 yards with pellets!

The camo vinyl stickers can easily be taken off without damaging the gun or bottle.

The gun will come with 1 original mag, 2 orion mags, jb3d butt hook with mono pod, short ODb moderator(not in picture) and barrel band. SCOPE NOT INCLUDED.

I’m asking $ 1500 $900 obo you pay shipping.

First picture group is at 100 yards with two little flyers.
2nd picture is top group 75 yard and bottom group 50 yards.

What does x represent, what am I solving for? Should be fairly simple.

x = ChamberVolume*(ChamberPressure/(PlenumPressure-PlenumPressure*PlenumPressureDropPercent/100))


x = ChamberVolume*(ChamberPressure/(PlenumPressure-PlenumPressure*PlenumPressureDrop))

Bonus points if you can tell me where this equation may apply in an airgun.

Up for sale is a LNIB Fx Maverick Sniper .22, this gun was only fired at Trenier Airguns to test functionality and check speed. A friend of mine purchased it from Trenier Airguns around October of last year and has never took it out of the case. The gun is still holding air from leak test before it was shipped out so there are definitely no leaks. I've looked this gun over and it is seriously like new. Asking price is $1250 shipped and includes everything in pics. PayPal FF or please pay fees if interested please PM me.

Recently I became aware of the block or ignore button. I have read a few posts about the issues that come with that. My question is this...
I blocked a member who (To me) was annoying and commented his/her opinion on EVERYTHING throughout a thread. In my privacy not through a beef I blocked him/her but since him/her comments on EVERYTHING many threads (i guess) don't appear.

Admin question: how do I UN ignore/ block this member so I can see threads? I can scroll past just seemed convenient..

Up for sale is this nice HW100 Carbine. Beautiful walnut stock and the factory moderator makes it very quiet.Includes magazine and fill probe. Scope and mount not included. Only selling because I do not have time to shoot it. $875.00 OBRO shipped to the lower 48 UPS adult signature Insured.
Paypal friends and family or postal money order for payment.

I moved from So Cal to Prescott AZ and thought the days of finding deals on craigslist were over. About 20 times less people. Then this pops up for $1000! I really didn't need it but who can say no to a deal right?

IMy wife and I was setting in the kitchen when a diet soda exploded in the cabinet, it was very loud, The can was bent all out of shape like I shoot it with a hollow point .
Now I have had a Carbon Fiber 4500 psi tank fail on me and the Carbon bands just let go with tiny little leaks.
Leads me to think the metal tanks when they fail the metal fails, On the Carbon fiber tanks the carbon bands fail and just let go very slow,
