So in the past days i have tried the hunter approach to getting a air rifler > 1.77 / 4.5 mm

The law here state there is 2 ways you can do that.

1: you can be a hunter with a hunting permit of course, in which case you just buy what rifle / caliber you like.
A "large " caliber rifle must of course be stored like any hunting weapon so a lockable rifle safe.
Additional you can get a hunting licence, this is generally dont by taking a evening class on the subject ( not idea how many weeks this is ) but you can actually take a crash course and get a hunting licence in 4 weeks, this if course will cost something VS evening classes which i think are free.

Anyway passing a 40 question written test ( need 36 correct ) and then a practical exam in weapon handling and discharge + range evaluation / safety, that is still a lot i feel to be able to procure a air rifle to shoot paper.

2; Via a membership of a sports shooting club.
I dont think this is possible CUZ with air at least they only shoot 4.5 mm and the traditional disciplines
Also i am not aware of a single such club that have the opportunity to shoot benchrest, and for sure not distances over 50 M, only if the club have handicap facilities would this be somewhat possible i assume.

So having depleted my options ( fast ) in the hunting department, i am left with the sports clubs, and these i have today contacted 4 of by E-mail.
So will be interesting to see what they say, but TBH i have my doubts that this is in any way possible, i suppose due to a set of HYPER strict and complicated rules, and maybe a bucket load of conservatism in the clubs,,,,, " anything new is dangerous and should be avoided, and we better not rock the boat "

If any Danish members know of a easier way ( legal of course ) well i am all ears,,,,, Dumbo sized ears.

I recently received my new Impact M3 from Allen Z… he set it up with a Helix scope and a full-barrel moderator which is his design (700mm). He did a fantastic ballistic tune and set my scope up with yardage marks on his custom turret cap.
I’m 79 and don’t have an understanding of all the tuning adjustments so I paid a true PCP expert to do it. Wow! It’s deadly and mouse fart silent. He’s the man if you want precision. Thank you Allen for your work.

Hi everyone, I was just wondering if anyone had some ordering experiences they could share about Natchez. They have a great deal on the air gun I want, but I am not sure if saving the money is worth not ordering from a reputable air gun dealer. Does anyone know if they test fire and examine like some other distributors? To me I’d rather have the peace of mind of ordering once and getting a working gun versus saving the money and having to deal with returns. Thanks in advance for any advice or opinions!

Anyone see this new offering at Shot Show yet? Appears to be an upgraded Sortie in a way. Maybe a Huben knock off?

I really love shooting my Cricket .22....for the past couple months I've really been into deer hunting and shooting my powder burners. I got a new 220 20 ga. slug gun and bought a mold and casted my own slugs and worked up an awesome load for them and got a new Ruger PCC 9mm, I worked up another awesome load for it with the 124 XTP bullets...my poor Cricket has just been sitting in my shop in the case. Today the weather was nice and I pulled the Cricket out and shot it some on my backyard range at 50 yards. The first target, I shot two clips at the same bull with the Nielson 17.5 slugs and it made me smile...... The bull is 2 in dia...........

Mounts will be made available for many models as well as a universal mount. They will be available in the next few weeks on Skoutairguns.com and at your favorite airgun dealers!

Good day,


Selling my Diamondback tactical ffp 6-24x50.
No issues, no scratches, doesn’t come with the scope rings.

What I’m looking for seems like it should be simple to find, but I’m not having any luck. Can anyone point me to a CO2 semi-auto pellet pistol with one of the following to allow mounting of a red dot sight:

• 3/8” dovetail
• Picatinny rail (on top, of course)
• drilled and tapped for rail mounting

When it comes to air rifles, finding the right balance between performance, features, and affordability can be a daunting task. Thankfully, the market offers a variety of options that cater to different preferences and budgets. In this guide, we'll be exploring the top 5 air rifles under $1000 that are making waves among shooting enthusiasts. From semi-automatic powerhouses to sleek bullpup designs, these rifles deliver exceptional performance without breaking the bank.

1. Air Venturi Avenger

The Air Venturi Avenger takes the top spot on our list for its exceptional versatility and performance at an affordable price point. With a fully customizable design, users can easily adjust features like stock length, comb height, and accessory rails. Its regulated design ensures consistent shot-to-shot accuracy, and the Avenger's ability to shoot both .177 and .22 caliber pellets makes it suitable for various shooting disciplines. The sidelever action provides a smooth and effortless cocking experience, while the adjustable two-stage trigger enhances shooting precision.

2. AEA HP Carbine (Semi-Auto)

For those who crave the thrill of semi-automatic shooting, the AEA HP Carbine is a remarkable choice. This air rifle blends cutting-edge technology with affordability, offering a semi-auto action that enables rapid follow-up shots. The powerful PCP (Pre-Charged Pneumatic) system delivers consistent power, and the adjustable power settings allow shooters to find the perfect balance between velocity and shot count. With its sleek and modern design, the AEA HP Carbine offers a dynamic shooting experience that's perfect for target practice and small game hunting.

3. Benjamin Armada

The Benjamin Armada holds a prominent position on our list due to its tactical design and accuracy. This PCP air rifle features an adjustable comb stock, enabling shooters to find their ideal cheek weld. The integrated Picatinny rail system provides ample space for accessories like scopes, lasers, and bipods. With a bolt-action mechanism and a 10-shot rotary magazine, the Armada offers consistent and rapid-fire capabilities. Whether you're a dedicated target shooter or a hunter, the Benjamin Armada's reliability and adaptability make it a compelling choice.

4. Air Venturi Avenger Bullpup

Combining the renowned performance of the Air Venturi Avenger with a compact bullpup design, the Avenger Bullpup offers a unique shooting experience. The bullpup configuration shifts the action and magazine behind the trigger, resulting in a shorter overall length without compromising barrel length. This makes it highly maneuverable in tight spaces and ideal for field use. The adjustable power settings and regulated system ensure consistent accuracy, making the Avenger Bullpup a great option for shooters who value both performance and mobility.

5. Benjamin Bulldog Bullpup

Closing our list is the Benjamin Bulldog Bullpup, which is specifically designed for those interested in air rifles for hunting larger game. Chambered in .357 caliber, this bullpup offers impressive power and stopping force. The ambidextrous design, coupled with a reversible sidelever action, enhances the user experience. The integrated pressure gauge and regulator contribute to consistent power output, while the sound suppression system helps to reduce noise, making it a practical choice for stealthy hunting.
(currently out of stock at NEAG, but we have the Benjamin Bulldog in stock)

What are your thoughts?
Do you agree or have any other suggestions we should have considered for this list?

Selling my DonnyFL Tanto .25-.30 1/2x20 moderator. $85 shipped to you.

Okay…. I want to try something but I’m hoping someone has already done this and can give me an idea of what to expect.

I want to do a ‘dry fire’ (obviously no ammo) of a big bore at full pressure in an apartment to perform a test.

Obviously I can’t do this without suppression. Here’s my question- Has anyone wrapped an airgun in a heavy comforter or wrapped it in blankets and pulled the trigger and did it almost entirely muffle it or was it still extremely loud/where on the spectrum did it fall? Also don’t worry, I’ll make sure to record it & get decided level if I wind up doing it and share with the community

If so, kindly share some pictures. I'm seriously considering one.

There was a thread a couple of weeks ago about this tripod and it is cheaper now. $13.52

Just thought I would post to let you know.

Picked this up a couple days ago



Vulcan 3 500 .177 Sub12 (booo uk gun laws)

Fitted a Vector Taurus 6-24x50 scope, it probably deserves better but it will do for now and it’s got my Ranger 1 Tactical bipod up front

Selling my Daystate Black Panther in 177 cal this gun is in perfect working condition and holds air perfectly
I've owned this Daystate Black Panther for 5 years and have had it in my collection "Total Safe Queen"
This gun was rebuilt by Scott AKA Motörhead it holds air and works like it should the stock is soft and it
is missing the Hamster it was missing when I got it , it comes with a charger keys original magazine and a
Ronin Engineering single shot loader . Scott AKA Motörhead has done the tuning on this Black Panther and
he has redid the electronic solenoid so the gun shoots much quieter with much less valve noise.


Asking 1,350.00 with PayPal and the preferred payment with Friends and Family or add the extra for the Goods an services
Shipping in the CONUS is included with the price , This is a very rare and hard to find airgun. Thanks for looking

Will be used for 15-30 yard target shooting in a neighborhood back yard, so noise is a consideration. Would like to stay under $500, $250 for scope and $250 for rifle.

Not going to recommend a PCP because of the huge operating expense.

How many shots do you get from the little co2 cylinder? Are bigger cylinders readily available? How may shots? My thinking is the co2 wouldn't eat scopes like a springer, it would be like a PCP for recoil. What co2 rifle do you recommend for quality, accuracy? Best bang for the buck!

I know Springers can get very expensive. So I will ask the same questions. Best bang for the buck.

Thinking through building a range and wondering what would you have in it? Targets? Distances? Firing line? Would love to see pictures of home ranges and ideas others are using.

I just picked up a almost new silver star 177 and just chrono it at 337 fps with 7.9 crosman and 346 with aa 8.3
...what are you guys getting? Is something wrong ?
