P-Rod or Bullpup

Going further down the rabbit hole. I would like something a little smaller, lighter and handier than my M-Rod. I am happy with the power and accuracy of my M-Rod and would like to stay 22 Cal. Haven't handled anything but read about the P-rod/stock and the Benjermin bullpups. Going to go used since they are a bargain. What should I be looking for?

Excuses

Why is it that almost all groups or target scores, no matter how good (or bad) seem to have an excuse added in to explain why they aren’t perfect? Just about every post I’ve seen over the past month starts out with “I was shooting in hurricane winds” or “the bench was so wobbly it would barely stand up” prior to or after the presentation of the group or targets.
Listing your shooting conditions is one thing, but phrasing it as some excuse for what you shot is something else.
Even some of the very best shooters do it - here’s this 100Y group 25 shots of 0.53 inch C2C, but it was swirling 15 to 20 mph winds and very cold…. 🤪
Am I being too dramatic or picky?

Shady "Expert Opinions" offered on Value of Highly Collectible Items

Just a little advice on some of the "Expert" opinions on the value of ultra rare vintage items of high demand...
Price/ Value quotes I got from some people (some of whom really are experts).
The difference in price quoted was huge depending on whether the person wanted to buy it or was just giving me an honest answer.
The "Experts" wanting to buy the item $500-700. The experts that were not wanting to buy gave value at $1200-1500.
The Khamsin sold for $2200 total price paid w/ shipping, taxes, etc..
The Camargue AL sold for $2500 total buyer paid (auction ended early, top buy price met in two days)
And quit slamming Ebay, it is the only place to sell the top end vintage stuff if you want to avoid the shuck and jive hussle from the "experts".
The guy that wants a super rare item real bad but will not pay it's true value on the open market.
Some of that is very understandable and all part of the negotiation process but offering an expert opinion that is that far off is very noticeable
to even a novice like myself.

IMO this rant only applies to the "Holy Grail" ultra rare pieces everyone is looking to find,
That is where the "Experts" lose their minds and integrity...

Disclaimer: Gentlemen on this forum were not as bad as elsewhere.

just think about it... before you get mad and offer more ill advised expert opinion.
it just ruins the ability to sell the nicer vintage items on ANY air gun forum classified page.
That is why it is all newer items being sold most of which are loosing their value very quickly (some of that is Shady too)

A persons one expert opinion cannot control this market, it is too big, no matter how many Bluebooks on Airguns get written and/or how influential a person is in this genre of collectibles. I have seen this for years in other things I collect (Classic Cars, car parts, vintage fishing/hunting gear, etc.) and never have bothered to chime in with my opinion but this niche of air gun enthusiasts is a pretty decent bunch of guys... and gals, Lol
The Best of the Lot !

Cheers, David

How do I make a backyard friendly pellet stop.

I am wanting to shoot my air guns more in my back yard but I live in a fairly populated area. How can I make a backstop or pellet trap that won’t make a ton of noise and be able to stop my pellets completely. I would just shoot metal targets but I feel like the pinging of the pellets hitting the metal every few days would become annoying for the neighbors.

Cocking issue R5M

Had an odd issue start popping up for me lately. After taking a little break from shooting I noticed that my .25 R5M is having issues with cocking. Specifically, when I cock the handle back it cycles just fine, but the action doesn't remain to the rear. Instead, it tries to spring back forward without being pushed. I take that to mean it didn't cock. Does this mean I have an issue with sear engagement? Anyone else exp this?

Pulling the cocking handle back and trying to get it engaged multiple times, I ended up putting 3-4 pellets into the barrel once. Not ideal.

Hey Vendors - The Little Things Get Noticed

I just received an order from High Pressure Pneumatics and feel compelled to give them a shout out. They did everything right. Not only did they have a good price on the Wika gauge I ordered but they shipped it in a timely manner, did not over charge for shipping, and packaged it very well. Bonus plus they included a bite size pack of M&M's....

When a vendor gives that extra effort I take notice. Good job High Pressure Pneumatics. I will be back!

Some Precision Airguns For Those On A Budget

we took some out some Zbroia Kozaks to the range and tested um out with different ammo, scope cam and target cam. Let us know what you guys think :) these airguns with the right ammo are real tac drivers, all for sub 1k. We know the some airguns are just out of reach for many, so we thought it'd be a good idea to remind everyone how amazing of a value the kozaks can be :)

That went badly

Been working on my 1960 vintage Blue Streak to get it up and running. New pump cup & seal kit, all the usual suspects. Got the front end back together and did a dry run on the valve nut turning it CCW till heard/felt the thread start - then CW to seat. So far so good. But not so simple with all the parts in place. Lots of spring pressure made finding the thread start really difficult. So wound up stripping the first two threads In the tube - verified with bore scope. Any hope of salvation?

Air Gunners

Are air gunners more informed on ballistics and scopes?
I've been to out local shooting range many times talking to other shooters about bullet drop and noticed most have no clue what their projectile does after it leaves the barrel.
I'm on the hunt for a small scope to fit on my Dream Tact. I do have a small Discovery scope but the scope rings block the mag.
I thought about buying a cantilever rings but I first thought about looking if our local Sportsman's Warehouse had a magnified short range AR scope. Something with holdover points.
While I was there, a sales-dude asked if I had any questions. I was looking at Vortex's prismatic scope and asked if the 5x scope had parallax error at close range.
The guy looked at me and said, "You only need to adjust your parallax if you don't have perfect eye sight, you have astigmatism, or if you shoot with one eye close."
I tried not to laugh but I asked him where he heard that, and was told the sporting goods manager told him that's what parallax was for.
In a polite way, I told him the reason you adjust parallax is to focus two lens inside the scope to your target you are trying to hit. You can notice parallax error if you move your eye up and down and see if the reticle moves. If you take out the parallax error at a certain distance, the reticle shouldn't move. He looked at me and said I was totally wrong and walked off.

Of Airguns And Humans- by The Voice Of Experience

Given the steady stream of posts on this forum by newbies and experienced airgunners alike on subject(s) relating to airgun weirdnesses, thought this might be a timely opportunity to quote the Voice Of Experience. Some of It's more profoundly memorable quotes-

1) "Airguns are like people. Each has it's own quirks, foibles and idiosyncrasies. And although those three terms are largely synonymous, when talking airguns or people, the three terms are NOT redundant!"

2) "Airguns develop problems or issues for any number of reasons... or no reason at all!"

3) "Airguns are no more schizophrenic than gorgeous red-heads... on crack!"

4) "Airguns are no more psychotic than my fourth ex-wife; who I left after the third time she stabbed me. Damn I miss that girl!"

5) "Why did I buy a springer? Because since I left my fourth ex-wife after the third time she stabbed me there's a whole in my soul marked 'Aggravation'."

6) "Under the definition of 'schizophrenic' in the Websters dictionary there's an image of a spring-piston airgun."

7) "Under the definition of 'psychotic' in the Websters dictionary there's an image of a cheap spring-piston airgun. And an image of my fourth ex-wife."

8) "Want to lose a friend? Help them buy an airgun."

9) "Want to make an enemy? Broker an airgun transaction for a friend."

10) "Want to avoid damage claims when shipping airguns? Package them in such a way as to make it IMPOSSIBLE for package-handling apes bent on destroying the contents to succeed."

11) "Shipping claims are to be avoided at all costs. My one and only damage claim took NINE MONTHS OF AGGRAVATION to settle."

12) "Want to avoid incompetent and/or agenda-driven postal or shipping company clerks refusing to accept your package? Take a printed copy of their company and federal regulations on shipping airguns with you. If a clerk still refuses after you've provided inarguable evidence of her lies, ask for her supervisor."

13) "Want to have as much fun as possible with airguns and Humans? See #12 above."

14) "I used to be normal; then got into airguns."
