I was under the assumption that a longer barrel yielded more FPS. I swapped out my .22 standard Vet barrel for a Vet long barrel which is 3.5” longer. I crono’d the standard barrel at 870 FPS with a 22 grain pellet. Then replaced the standard with a long barrel and shot the same pellet, at the same tune and it averaged 873 FPS. I figured that I would see the FPS increase more than 3 FPS. What am I missing here?

Does anyone happen to know of any airgun stores in Pennsylvania with a good inventory? Im located in central pa but will travel within reason. Google wasn't much help as I only found one store with a functioning website. I'm looking to handle some mid to high end pcp rifles prior to purchasing.

A man in a brown uniform just delivered this in time for the weekend…FX King in 22cal, brown GRS stock. I will be mounting the scope(Leupold)VX-3 HD 6.5-20 fine duplex) tonight and heading out to the range tomorrow. More pics to follow.

I have a whole pack of the 480's left. This arrived new in the box about 6 days ago and was only shot from the bench to film a demo video. As new, but I expertly cleaned the barrel with my Patchworm Shotgun insert before filming the video. I got alot of sludge out till that barrel was shining! Better than new! Front grip and scope are not included. Includes M-Lock Pick rail added under and about 25 Mr. Hollowpoint .58 rounds. Also has a fitted padded box, o-rings..included full warranty.

$1200 free shipping. You can PM me here or call or text me at 360-844-0962 Thanks -Nate

Ships well packed and double boxed.

Hello everyone. I hope you all are having a good day.
My local gun range just opened up some airguns range slots and I’m thinking of getting a membership at said range.
They do not have electrical hookups, so, I would have to fill my airguns via the battery on my truck.
TBH, I’m not crazy about doing that. I was looking at some 12 volt/100 mah rechargeable batteries from Amazon that are advertised as RV/trolling motor/etc. batteries.
Do you guys think a battery of this type would be able to power my compressor reliably?
I have a water cooled CS compressor if that helps.
Any ideas you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

*** SOLD ***

I bought this gun 'used' (actually NOS) from Airguns of Arizona in April of 2024. And it doesn't get shot much, so onto the selling block it goes.

I don't see any blemishes on the gun anywhere. The chrony data I have shows that it liked AA 16 gr pellets at full power (883 fps), but shot the Hades best (most accurate) when backed down 1 click on the transfer port (842 fps). I have done nothing to attempt to tune this gun since received from AoA.

This is a handy little package, at only ~34.5" OAL and with an unscoped weight of 7#2oz.

Comes with OEM magazine (BRK new style flip-open), OEM single shot tray, fill probe with male Foster, various spare o-rings, trigger adjustment hex wrenches and owner's paperwork.

$585 payable via PayPal Friends and Family, including CONUS shipping.

First 'I'll take it' PM wins.

Thanks,
Tom

Airgun Nation honors those who've made a sacrifice for this country. Many Manufacturers & Retails choose to celebrate our freedom by offering discounts around this holiday. Feel free to share all Memorial Day Sales within this thread. We will encourage our Sponsors to do the same!

When my sons were very young, they were taught to approach people in uniform and say "Thank you for your service". We have always respected those in uniform.

When I posted our Memorial weekend coupon, I was attempting to make a post that was solemn, and respectful. I had pictures that were of families at grave sites, mourning loved ones. I didn't want to post "HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY", when it is all about those who gave the ultimate sacrifice.
John 15:13 states: "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends".

One member respectfully pointed out that those pictures could cause those that lost loved ones pain. That was in no way my intention, and I am truly sorry if it caused anyone pain. I have removed the pictures. If I did, I never meant to hurt anyone.

I am not asking for forgiveness, as that is a gift from you to me. I am truly apologizing if I hurt anyone's feeling, which is from me to you.

I have two OG Taipan Vet Long .25's.
And it's time to sell one of them.

My best shooting buddy passed away in October, and I almost always shoot solo these days.

Typical trouble free, super accurate, quiet Taipan.
Superb trigger, anti-double-load.

Currently shooting 25.39gn at 935fps, no moderator needed: Backyard Friendly.

There are a couple pressure marks and a couple nicks in its black stock. Metal is perfect. Functionally perfect.
Price reflects this.
Scope and rings are not included.

$810. SOLD
Firm. takes it. shipped.

He appreciated the relationships he had on this forum and enjoyed sharing his shooting experiences. Thank you

If so, would it be easier to get parts from Kral or Benjamin?Also, what are the best resources for tuneups and mods? Properly here. Thank you Jesse

Gun: Benjamin marauder
Goal: thermal(night) optical (day) scope set up with over 10x max magnification.
Budget: Low

Can I use a magnifier with an LPVO to increase its total magnification or can I not get more than 8ish with any LPVO set up (optical only)

The current scope I’m leaning towards is the Athlon Talos BTR FFP 4-14x44mm. After doing research I’m worried this scopes bottom magnification is too high and will be too pixelated from the zoom.

Last, I’m just hoping for recommendations on good quality but budget clip ons that could pair well with the talos or something else if there’s other recommendations

Have 3 veteran ones for sale. Standard 177 with grey laminate stock SOLD standard 25 grey laminate $900, 22 long with tactical stock $1000. All plus shipping. Also another tac stock, and a red laminated, $200 each.Red stock sold. No trades, offers considered. Email for pics at [email protected].

Huma in their instructions say they include a M3 screw that would go into the top. People tie fishing line to it so they can retrieve it and tune it.

Mine didn’t come with one and when I inquired huma said they’re outdated directions and the screw is already installed. I don’t know what they mean already but do you guys know if it’s safe to put a screw on the top now?

EDgun Leshiy 2 in .22 Caliber 350mm. Excellent condition and clean, no leaks, no hiccups, fully functional, Russian made, and in original factory configuration. IMHO, could pass as like-new but with certain light angles you can barely see a finish mark or two (gotta look hard for 'em). I've had new ones not as nice as this. Comes with 2 mags, 2 mag carriers, fill probe, manual, and original box (beat up some). $1985 Shipped/CONUS PayPal Friends and Family or Zelle. No trade offers please. Pictures upon request.

Managed to get my hands on the new Alpex 4K Lite—can’t wait to get out and properly put it to the test. Had to sneak out before sunrise for a quick look through it, just to see how it handled in low light. First impressions? Absolutely blown away by the clarity and how well it performs, especially for something so compact.

Let me know your thoughts if you have seen one also.

I know there is no exact definitive answer to this but just looking for a ballpark figure as I don’t have a lot of experience shooting 22. I’m curious on average how many fps slower 22 gr pellets shoot than 18.1 gr shot on the same tune ?

I'm just getting an FX DRS Pro to shoot fair with cast bullets. I'm a cast bullet PB Schutzen guy for years and mainly a spring gun guy with airguns. This cast bullet PCP airgun thing now has my attention.
it's so inexpensive to shoot compared to 22LR ammo.



Suggestions?

Wanted a 700mm carbon fiber tube for my drs and as of yet Europe Air hasn’t had.
So around the house I noticed I’m not using the longer guns like the drs and raw and
Kratos.
They did have a 500mm carbon tube and I bought it and the barrel .

Here's what I brought home from today's flea market. Nothing to get excited about.
Top is another Ruger Mk IV, my second one so far, next a Daisy Power line 15XT. And my fifth or sixth Marksman. It all was cheap.

New in box 300 bar 700cc carbon fiber bottle…

140.00 shipped PayPal F&F for pmt.

Has any used or seen the new AEA 177 13.73 pellets? I was looking for a picture, but could not locate one. The tin picture looks like a 10.34 version, so I wanted to see what these look like. If anyone has some of these, could you post some pictures?

Many Thanks!

Element Helix 4-16x44, MOA FFP Scope with the APR2-D reticle, QD mounts and arken level.
Asking $300 shipped CONUS, as pictured.
(Don't have the original box but will ship well packed.)

Yesterday I shot a varmint and there it laid. When I went out to retrieve I was surprised when I saw breathing. In a small game hunting situation you would have to dispatch the animal quickly and it may appear very violent to do so. Well I went in to get my quiet Beeman 177 pistol to discretely get it over with. It’s still as my now 4 pcp pistols rather large .

Question: is there a small, cheap, preferably pcp pistol to finish small game off ?
probably no pcp so how about CO2 ?

Greetings. How can I add a pressure gage on my regulated Marauder that shows the regulated pressure?
