I have a Brand New DFL,FX 25-30 suppressor 100 shipped

New to the PCP world. What brand of fill hoses and fitting brands does everyone recommend TIA

I've seen lots of posts about super far pcp kills. Not much about springer max distance kills targets are one thing but I'm wondering how far a springer can carry a well placed pellet and still kill*I'm talking small game,not boars and deer* so far my max is about 30 yards on a dove with my rugerfor now!
So im starting this thread! Hahaha Let 'er rip!

Sorry to say, the Lil Foot does not have magic powers. I really thought it did. He made it about 4 months, which is 1 month longer than the NOMAD 2.



That's why I have a backup compressor (NIB Yong Heng) ...that should get me through the next 60 days hopefully.

Was I supposed to lube something? There was no oil port. The lil foot started blowing the 35 amp fuse one after another when it hit about 200 bar. Then I put a 40 amp fuse in it today and it kept running but about 1 minute in it started makeing terrible noises from the engine: like it was breaking apart inside. I'm pretty sure it's done.

Gotta go unpack the Yong Heng so I can finish this video. -Nate @ Airgun Channel

A bit of background: I work in import and private labeling. A lot of the compressors on the market look to be rebranded units from other makers from around the world.Most of them are mass produced but the parts can be upgraded at the factory they are made in.

Right now, I have one of my overseas contacts trying to source a high end compressor that will also fill the large tanks. While I don't expect to hear much until after the Chinese New Year, I think the same principles can be applied to these compressors as what I have custom made. We are talking upgraded parts and durability testing instead of some off the wall already made design with budget components.

So my question for all of you: If you got to choose every detail of a compressor, what would the things you would want to see in it? Think about the parts that normally break pr wear out quickly as this custom manufacturing can address those.

Once I have a list I will get one produced and run it through the ringer and see how it holds up against the named good compressors. Thoughts?

At the conclusion of two separate Pro X shoots, 100 pellets or so, just for fun, I did a quick test comparison with my Taipan Veteran. What was the same...conditions, 18 gr JSB pellets, what was different, Styer 820fps, 16X scope, shot off bages, trigger untouched from factory. Veteran 870fps 40X scope, shot off my knee...no bench...and a perfect trigger...IMHO...and the knowledge of what the Vet can do after three years familiarization. The target board bottom left is the Veteran 5 shot also the single group shot on a different day, 5 shots also...the rest are Pro X groups 5 or 10 shots except top right the 3 shot bad group was CP domes 14.3's. Biggest factor was trigger next scope and magnification. The Pro X trigger must be addressed to challenge the Veteran, the Pro X has it's moments but needs more consistency...two nice airguns...feel blessed to own them!

I have a good condition HW35e .177 for trade. Stock was in rough shape so I sanded and applied Truoil 7 coats to the raw wood. Finish turned out really nice. A few areas that aren’t perfect, but I like it. I installed the Tinbum MAXI tuning kit and she shoots really smooth and nice. Shooting 7.4 gr Crosman pellets around 750fps. Lubed with JM Moly Paste. It is missing the sling studs, safety button and front site inserts.I can also text you more pictures if needed. I’d like to trade for pcp in .177.

My .25 caliber Impact has been pretty consistent, reliable and accurate. My latest tune has had me at 877 fps average with ES from 4 to 7 and SD from 1.7 to 2.1 and grouping MOA or better at 30, 50 and (usually) 65 yards. I've been pretty happy with it! But lately that's all gone to hell in a hand-basket with ES of 30 or more, SD close to 10 and shooting as though almost every shot is a flier. I might get one fairly good group, then have a whole magazine that's all over the place, like 1"~2" spreads. I've made no changes to the gun since it was shooting great and the weather has been relatively mild - no drastic temperature changes, etc. I cleaned the barrel and got the same lousy results. I'm thinking about stripping it down to bare stock components and stock settings and starting completely over. Any suggestions are welcome.
Here's what I've got right now:
FX Impact M3 w/Power Block (not labelled as such but it's a 216 serial number)
600mm with stock STX Superior liner - all stock - with carbon fiber sleeve
Donny FL stock FX suppressor that came with the gun
FX Integrated Harmonic Barrel Tuner
Saber Tactical TRS Compact Top Rail Support
No internal modifications, no reg creep, nothing very fancy in the whole setup

Just got a tank and have been calling around to see about getting it filled. My plan was to find a firehouse that fills them and show up with 8lbs of shredded bbq for them all to eat.

Plan shot down as they told me they won't fill the tanks locally. At least I have dive shops locally. I don't see what the issue is when our taxes paid for the equipment they use and the tank is certified and in date.

Anyone else have trouble with their local Fire departments too?

Got more scopes than rifles, Like new condition. Comes with everything in the pictures, $275 shipped Pay Pal F&F or buyer pays fee.

Well less then 200 pellets in the TX200 ate my Hawke 4-12×40 AirMax lol.

Take a shot and the scope goes fuzzy, point the rifle upward and it comes back to focus, the parallax is shot.

I find the TX waaay too hot for it's power level, probably gonna trade for a HW97.

I don’t want to offend anyone. It’s just the most honest thing that comes to mind. Someone should hire me.




I’ve owned a few FX. Really loved them. This came to me via some friends. Thanks for lefties. It’s a cool little build for sure. I’m honestly impressed overall.
Far cry from the fine machining and much more controlled design. I would prefer FX, make no mistake but it’s a Ford/Chevy to Rolls Royce comparison. Both drive and work. Shot count and precision are lacking but it’s a solid build. Way more power than I really need.
That’s a huge difference as FX would allow adjustments easier in ways.

Just thought the FX with no Finesse was funny. If it’s iffy in any way please remove it immediately moderator

Selling a lightly used ultra se with a ton of extras. Purchased last year from AOA. Currently getting around 68 shots per fill at just under 12 ft/lbs. Quietest gun I have ever shot and very accurate.

Its set up with a larger transfer port and an HDD that eliminates hammer bounce and air waste. Asking $800 plus shipping. Paypal only.

$1800.00 shipped for everything pictured. This the last week that I’ll offer this pistol for sale. I really got the price set to “NO BRAINER”. This is a top tier pistol! If no one picks it up, it’s back to popping itty bitty steel targets at my “shooting gallery”.
Thanks

Is finally here!

so I decided to shrink wrap tank and man was it a pain. Got it all done and decided to do barrel also. Thanks again for info brawler1588 !!!

So first of all…round of applause to Weihrauch. The finish on their rifles could go through a hurricane and be fine I think. I had to use about 8 coats of Kleanstrip to remove some of the finish, not even all of it. I had to go in with 60 grit and 150 grit sandpaper to remove a good chunk of it, but as you can see there is still some finish left. The end near the buttstock is particularly annoying because it just won’t come off no matter what I do.

Thoughts? How should I remove the rest of it or should I just leave it and see how the new stain I bought blends in? It could look like an art piece I guess…

I was inspired by @seangabrell who refinished his LGU. I chose a different color, mine will be carbon grey. Will look cool I think. I bought this HW77K for a very cheap price…total cost with parts put me at $245. Paint puts me at $265.

After months of research, several straight days and evenings reading past threads I finally made my choice.
My wife would walk by and see what was on the screen, then tell her Mom I was looking at "air gun stuff" again. Gotta love her.

Anyway, I called AoA today and spoke with "Darrin". Great guy. I told him my situation and what I wanted to do. He not only helped me with what I wanted, he got me
everything I needed.

So now, I am Ralphie. Waiting with baited breath for my new air gun.

I purchased the Daystate Revere regulated .22cal. I got the,"We The Plinkers", package. Seemed the prudent thing to do since I am starting from scratch.
A couple thousand JSB exact Heavy .22 pellets in 18.3 grains.
Omega 75 cu Patriot w\standard valve and hose with QC's.
Primal Gun Gear tank tote.
Darrin said he would go back and find me nice dark walnut stock, nothing blonde.
I believe I am ready to begin.
Just want to say thanks to all who answered my newbie questions thus far.
I will post pictures when it arrives and an update on how it shoots.
Thanks again
Doc

Hello Airgunners, greetings from Peru!!! .. This is my first post in AN... Maybe you can help me to have the right understanding to get the correct setting when I'm going to the highlands with my Rifle.
Normally I shot at sea level up to 1500ft , and my Rifle (a Cricket Tactical 2 Cal .22) works pretty well and accurate with a constant 940fps per shot.
When I go to the highlands for trout fishing I reach altitudes of 9000ft to 11000ft . Sometimes I bring my rifle with me, but I noticed that the accuracy of my shots up there change at all. My shots seems to have a flatter trajectory as the one they have at lower altitudes. Therefore, I try to fix my shots but without having all the factors which I should consider and the resources/tools that I have at home.
Does someone have tips that I have to consider when going to highlands?? What does really happen with the FPS and ballistic behaviour of the pellets? (btw I only use JSB 18.13gr and 25,39gr)
I will appreciate your help....thanks

This R&D done @ 2 years ago to the month & originally shared on the GTA forum.
Pending caliber of slug, depth & diameter of HP cavity a different size Phillips or Pozi-drive tip will give the best results.
* The tips used in doing this were thinned slightly to give cleaner scoring lines, tho not required pending tip used.
If wanting the back story .. here: HP slug modification

To show you what is the results of some testing ... here a few pictures of .177 NSA 12.5g as well .22 NSA 20.2 & 24.8g

Thought the AGN membership may find this of interest if a pester and using less costly NSA etc slugs.

On which one of you goons made this?





Only ask because I want one! Lol

Hello everyone,

Just received the Steve Corcoran Wood Grips for my Crosman 1701P Silhouette and they feel so good in my hand. The photos do not do justice to how beautiful they are and all of the curves and the refinement of the wood. Also they really dress up the Pistol.
