Just want to throw this question out there. Am I too deep into Airgunning if I keep a COMPLETE Firing Range in the back of my pickup truck? And I mean COMPLETE, as in I can just jump in the truck, go, set up and start shooting complete. Ammo, Rifles, Compresser complete.....
I may post pics here later....

Continuing the saga as it settles. I am still getting a flyer or 2 per 10 shots. Which is what the chronograph was suggesting last test. I think those are settling out as well, but not quite sure yet. The 10-shot groups are consistently around 1 inch with flyers. It is not uncommon nor to drop 5 shots into 1/2". One target saw 8 of 10 in about 1/2" with 2 wild ones. This is reflected in the jump in "x" scores ranging from 6 to 9 now.

Some of this is me I am sure but not all of it. As flyers are consistently low, and chronograph is showing the random low reading, I am sure that is part of it. In order shot.

So I picked up a beeman 1358 underlever pup off the classifieds in pretty rough shape, solely to tinker on. Laying in bed dreaming of airguns and ignoring the miss' advances, I came up with this idea in my noggin.

I jumped out of bed around midnight and dug through a box of old gun parts, looking for my maverick 88 pump handle. It damn near slid onto the air tube of the beeman. I smiled with great relish.

Took some 80 grit sand paper on a dowel rod and stroked the inside of the handle harder than I've stroked anything in years. About a half hour of that got the handle to slide nicely on the tube.

So I made some marks where I needed to cut the stock and scope/trigger mount, and went to bed. Woke up this morning and got the saw zall and welder out. Badda Bing badda bang, I cobbled this together with some American ingenuity.

What ya guys think?

I rebuilt my TX200 MKIII after 10000 plus rounds. New FAC factory spring, different factory compression tube, new seals. I tested it, then added a 3mm spacer in front of the Top Hat.

The new spring was about 3/4" longer than the old one. The piston seal fit tighter in the compression tube as well. With my finger over the loading port I could press the piston down without stopping (slowly) in the old tube but the compressed air stopped movement with tube replacement.

I picked up over 100 fps and 5 fpe. It was running under 10 fpe for ES and about 2.6 fps for SD. So not much changed there. I am using this for shooting at 50-yards out to 100-yards so fps makes a difference.

First run out at 50-yards today saw it consistently under 1" for 5 shot groups and doing essentially quarter size performance. I was not "on" today and there was a slight breeze. I expect things to settle in pretty well with it shortly.

50-yards performance day 1.

Navigate me a products have been on the market for a few years. I’m trying to get a general sense of what kind of experiences everyone is having.

Anyone had issues with there Impact M3 randomly dropping speed, not a small amount, the fun is tuned to 960fps - 292 m/s for shooting slugs but every now and then the gun will drop to around 640fps - 195 m/s are around that mark, then back to 960fps - 292m/s for 5-10-15 shots. I've removed the 1st stage regulator and monitored regulator pressure, this seems stable and I've changed to the new brass piston also trying to remedy this...

Someone suggested it might be a Hammer issue, the internals have not been touched and they are as supplied by factory..

Any suggestions ?

Hello, I just wanted to show the suppressor I made with a can. Or should I say I made a “can” out of a can. Inside the actual can I used a 3d printer to make baffles that would fit inside the can snugly. Then, after filling the can with about 7 of them I created a part that would connect to the end of the barrel of my qb78. Then I glued and taped it together for the time being. I also have yet to come up with a solution for the end cap. This is a work and progress and my first attempt at anything like this but after testing it I can say it works. For the cosmetics,durability, and physics of it, I know it has a long way to go. Tinkercad is my best friend.

On my way to the Conservation Club to do some target practice with my Benjamin Discovery and Marauder .22, I went the back way.
I came upon a doe (and twins) crossing the road, a couple helping a turtle to not become a casualty. Lastly there was a large busted blonde wearing a green Izzo shirt on a jog. (Tom Izzo is the Michigan State Mens Basketball coach) Izzone
Life is good when you take the back way once in a while !!!

I spent 4 hours shooting at 10, 25 and 50 yards off my Allen stand, off-hand and a perlite filled bag.
Refilled the Discovery twice with my GX CS2 and the SynRod once.
I shot some PolyMag Shorts and JTS DeadCenter with the Disco from 10 and 25 yards.
The SynRod was used to shoot some JTS DeadCenters and AA Diabolo Fields from 25 yards.
Then spent some time shooting JSB Diabolo Jumbo Heavies taking it down to 1000 psi.
My goal was to follow each shot until impact and not jerking my head up to see the impact.
I can't say as I am ready to try Bench Rest or N50 but I am progressing...

up for sale or trade is my newly purchased tx200 in 177 caliber. . i put a few shots through it but i prefer pcps so it has to go. purchased from Cavedweller last week. scopes is included if the buyer wants it towards the trade or sale. looking to trade for pcp of equal value like a daystate,fx or a krait. im open to other offers.

I have a new HW 30,can you tell me what pellets shoot well out of the HW30....thx.

Ok I decided I am going to sell my panthera as it's a little to big for my kind of huntin. Absolutely like new.made the titanium moderator adapter....took it out prairie dog shooting and it shootings pellets and slugs equally well but the mags really don't like howler slugs which is the only slug I use and a few pellets hang up in mags. Heavy long slugs work flawless.

Bought the k&l stock adapter and fixed the thread in it while waiting for folding stock parts to come from FX....which is all included with sale. No scope but rings can go with. 4 mags

1600.00 obo you pay shipping

May trade for something awesome like small hunter type gun(krait 22)

I am interested in the 2.5-12 Heras. Is the reticle easy to see for aging eyes. As an example I don’t think the Midas is easy to see for me. But I am wanting to inquire about the Heras

For sale is a lightly used Artemis PP700S-A currently in .177 but also comes with a .22 barrel. The .22 barrel has been shot more that the .177. DonnyFL moderator adaptor. Home made pellet seater from a guitar jack. Seats the pellet the same depth every time. Folding stock. I was going to thread a finger adjustable bolt in the linkage but never got around to it. It wiggles, they all do. Dovetail to weaver adaptor. I was using a reddot on the adaptor. Attached a photo of test shooting in my basement. 12 yards with average chrono readings for 5 different pellets. Have the original box but stock will have to be removed for delivery. Holds air forever with no leaks. $200 shipped slightly negotiable.

After shooting hundreds of squirrels in my backyard over the years, this one wants to be friends. I actually shot this female a couple of months ago and she limped off. She has a bad leg now and I decided to give her a break.funny thing is the other squirrels watch me feed her pecans and dont run off like they used to.

Built this over the last couple months and finally finished it up. Now that I have the notos and my Ultra SE, I don't really see a use for it.

Multi shot breech, uses 10 shot Mrod or gauntlet mags. Has a 12" Prod barrel, shrouded with 5 baffles. Pretty quiet.

Mrod trigger, a metal trigger guard, refinish stock with Tru Oil.

Doesn't have a fill gauge, but I use my outlet regulator on my bottle to fill to 2200 psi. Gives me 50 shots at 625 fps with crosman premiers. Perfect for plinking and light pesting duty. Great for the grandkids too! It's very lightweight, under 6lbs, and only 34" long.

Comes with 2 mags and the sniper 4x32 AO scope that's on it.

I have more money into this build than I'd like to say, and my time as well. The breech and barrel were $150 alone.

More pics on request, just putting the feelers out on this one.

Hello,
My 8yr old son wants an air rifle to shoot with dad. I want a pcp since I have tanks and a compressor to fill it. Probably a 177 and a magazine with a good shot count. He will just be plinking and shooting targets. I don't want a huge gun for him and probably something with adjustable stock to grow with him. Price range up to 400. Any suggestions?

Thanks
Jon

Since I got my Ultra, which was my original "want" gun, im contemplating selling its big brother.

This one is a FAC model now, since I pulled the valve restrictor. Does 32-55 fpe depending on spring setting and pellet weight. Accurate as hell, just too much for my shooting range. Too long for my liking with the moderator on it, but need one here at the house.

Really is a great gun and in I'd say 95% like new condition. A couple small blems on the stock, no nicks or gouges, just some pressure marks. Bluing is still very good.

Will come with one mag and a fill probe.

Let me know if interested. Scope and moderator not included.

Hi, I only have one pcp a Brocock contour s6 that had a massive ail leak and sat in the closet for the past 6years because I didn’t think I could fix it myself but thanks to this forum and a 004 O ring is up and running again.
I now have the itch for another pcp and thought I would like to buy a made in USA rifle and found this on eBay (Link below)
if it stays at this price would this rifle be a good deal?

Thank you

Ok, their slogan of "ridiculous good optics" is spot on for their price point.

I grabbed a 6-18x44 neos a couple weeks ago to replace my westhunter 4-16x44 since the fine reticle is getting lost in low light and aging eyes. The glass is CLEAR all the way to 18x zoom, and they scream of quality. So I bought another.

This time, it's a 4-12x40 for my new to me BSA ultra. It's just as good as it's bigger brother. I compared it side by side with my 3-9x32 bugbuster on the notos, and the BB just seems like dated cheap glass. I'm thoroughly impressed to say the least and can only imagine how good their top their stuff is. I simply don't have the funds for that good of an optic for an airgun that won't push past 75 yards, so I went with lighter/no frills. I don't need an illuminated reticle, especially with the center X reticle the neos has.

I plan to move the 4-12 neos to my notos after I drop another $180+/- on a 4-16x40 talos to put on the ultra.

Athlon optics FTW in my book, and you can trust me... im an airgun doctor
