Hello everyone,
I wanted to thank everyone for the outpouring of love and support over the last few days. The posts here, on social media, the messages and phone calls have been amazing!

Lewis made a post a few days ago asking for love, support and your prayers for one of our AGN family members. Although his post was cryptic, he did it to protect my family and our privacy. Lewis, you're one hell of a great guy!

My youngest son Cooper, 13yrs was taken from us last weekend. We're absolutely devastated and have been struggling beyond belief. The outpouring of support has been amazing and has really helped us with our grieving. My family wanted to reach out here on AGN and thank you all for the calls, texts, posts and messages.

Those of you that had the opportunity to know, hang out with, fish or shoot with Cooper were a lucky bunch. He was an amazing young man! Augie, you know how he felt about you... He loved hanging out with you and was already looking forward to RMAC next year!

Thank you all for the love and support!
Kevin(Stoti), Nichole and Alex Stoughton

1st off HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE.. Up until about 2 weeks ago my USPS delivery times have been very good usually early in fact.. now they are 2-3 or more days late and running all over the country.. Im in Indiana ordered a airgun part from Florida picked up by USPS and took 3 days to get out of Florida where it went to Ohio and delivery was updated to tomorrow.. I just checked tracking its now back in Florida and delivery moved back to Saturday.. no freaking wonder they are supposedly broke or cant make money. OK rant over, I thought Fed Ex was bad but USPS is trying their best to out do them

I have the various.22 caliber pellets for sale. The fx slug boxes contain 200 13.43 jsb. There’s an unopened tin of jsb 13.43 and fx 15.89. Most of the other tins are almost full.

$40.00 plus shipping to conus. PayPal or usps money order.

if you own or owned one, please tell me what you think.
thinking about getting my youngest grandson one for Christmas, he has about
wore out his hatty.......when he gets a little older i plan on getting him an HW80.
thanks !

Name this Springer....hint yes it's a Diana but very rare.....no I longer have it. This picture was taken in 2010....like to share because a lot people didn't even know they made this model which in my opinion was better than the TX 200!!!!! I had 3 TX 200 it out shoot them all at 35 yards!!! Scope was konus 6-24 when they made them in South Korea great glass!!! Tough scope too. Now they made of China

Happy Thanksgiving, we are truly blessed . I hope everyone has a wonderful day. This is my sunrise.
Terry

I was shooting my Bobcat Mk2 .25 the other day....owned from new in '18...just a casual informal target shoot, I was reloading the magazine when I realized I had never cleaned adjusted or otherwise done ANYTHING but put pellets in that mag in over five and a half years! I have a spare mag but doubt if I ever shot more than a few mag fulls through it. I have posted countless groups from this airgun over the years...every pellet originated from this mag that hasn't been touched for maintenance..
Just load and shoot....repeat... for years and years...smooth reliable and accurate. Easy component to take for granted....like a car battery that you don't think about till it quits. Just credit where credit is do...Happy Thanksgiving!

Since it’s thanksgiving I’m posting some AGN members names whose wisdom and patience I’m very thankful for:

@Motorhead
@Kerndtc
@Franklink
@Arzrover
@Sturkis
@zx10wall aka tenacious airguns
@BC
@Carey Hymel and BRAC
And lastly
@ everyone I have bought airgun related things from and everyone who has bought airgun related items from me - THANK YOU!

AOA has the R10 marked down to 699.00 which is a killer deal, I think they were a bit higher then that awhile back.
Well Ive been adding one to my cart and taking it out for the last couple months but at that price it stayed in this time so should be getting it next week sometime hopefully..
I ask them in the area where you can leave a note if they would pick me one out with nice wood, dont know if they will do that but cant hurt to ask..
Really like the looks of these guns hope they feel as good as they look, oh yeah ordered the .22. Was thinking about a Avenge-x but I really like everything about these guns.

1000+ grain projectile pushed by compressed air mixed with helium. If his numbers are correct, this is insane!!

Well... I purchased the thingy, even if I stated that they have no shame to overprice it so much, and I even take a crusade to made a 3d printed 80 bucks max on materials (the pcp kit for the crossman 2240 and a crappy barrel from Gamo) pcp, double action, 23cm pistol with small game power, that for stupid legal reasons I can't even print in my country (but I found someone that can on his) to teach them a lesson...




But finally I purchased the thingy because... I like airguns, and this is the best thing ever produced in pistol format, even if its overpriced has f***, and lucky me, I get the V1 version that is more expensive than the newer V3 versions... for some reasons.
Don't even shooted yet because I only have .177 pellets in my house and no airgun shop in my entire city, well, I dry fire it to adjust trigger sensibility, so I cant talk about accuracy or any feeding/shooting problems yet.




The good:
Best air pistol ever made, his direct competitor, the evanix Viper is eons away from it, as other patetic iterations as the Sortie, with plenty of malfunctions, and the meh Evanix Ar6 Pistol that has some problems with double action and depletes almost all the presure with 4 shots.

Internally diferent, at last! The secret of the Gk1 (and the K1) is a higher working pressure and using a valve system that is more logical and efficient than the old -lets punch really hard a rod to open more air flow- that has to travel a narrow space, with a really hard spring thats impossible to compress with a decent trigger pull, so more air wasted on reseting it, etc... etc... The firing valve on the GK1 reminds me off the system that uses the Umarex T4E series of crappy Co2 shooters, but in reverse and perfected.

Semi-auto, insane power, easy to regulate on the go (where is legal to do it).

Really lightweight!


The not so good:
The instruction manual on mine have an attached advice to not continuos rapid fire it... WTF... I will do it anyways.

The carbon fiber tank... are they suposed to have a much shorter lifespan, and have to be revised every 5 years? I don't know if its the case with the GK1, but I would rater have prefered a traditional steel tank even if it weights a little more for durability.

So much wasted space!! the grip protudes too much and increases the overall length, I thought the objective is to make an air PISTOL that could be called a pistol. I know its better to be front heavy and that helps with the recoil and control... in a firearm... But this is air, the recoil is totally controllable and you can make it front heavy anyways without increasing the overall lenght just advancing a little more the grip.
Also, the barrel ends before the endcap, so, this pistol could have been about 28cm long instead of its 32.5.

The charge rod gets in the way on left handed shooters, but I see that this is a problem solved on the newer V3 versions.

The air port is exposed to dust and dirt, just inexcusable.

The recharging method is just meh.

Trigger lenght is non adjustable and a bit too short for my taste, also come too light from factory.

The whole mechanism turns it into a always cooked and ready to fire gun. The only thing that prevents it is a small mechanism that I bet if the gun recives some hit, it may accidentally shoot. In the rifle format this isn't that big of a problem, but with a pistol that you could carry on your body to go hunting or something, on that dangerous permanent state... I don't know, maybe I'm wrong... but unless I see someone bashing his charged Gk1 on a table and the thing not firing, just seeing the whole mechanism makes me feel uneasy.



Things that can be 3d improved:

A plug to cover the charging port when you are not filling it!

Another grip that not protude out of the upper body of the gun. It will have to replace also the trigger guard and maybe the transmision rod to advance the whole trigger further.

A loading gate that don't cost 28 bucks, cause theirs is also crappy 3d printed.

Tuning gear connected on the regulator to adjust the power at any time, plus mechanical numeric indicators, it can be done... but for some reason the manual states that you must turn the valve just a quarter every time.... why? I don't see any mechanical problem with not doing it that way.

When I finish the Cheapo/poor man's Huben GK1, I will compare the two, and then maybe I'm gonna start making 3d mods for the GK1, wich I can never use on mine for legal reasons on my country.

I probably have shot 1300 pellets with my Crosman 1377 and have been reading and watching various info on whether to clean or not to clean. I am not new to firearms but I have not had an air rifle in over 50 years or more and never an air pistol. I read where some said initial cleaning but I didn’t do that either. This thing has always shot accurate from 25-30 yards from this rest even with stock trigger. It did not like the Crosman 7.9 grain hollow points which is what had me trying various brands and all were accurate but some remarkable. It seems like the 8 and heavier were best and domed the most. Well I decided on some Swab-it’s for the first cleaning and it was dirty. This was the first pull from breech to muzzle. I ran 3 with cleaner and 3 dry and the last was clean. Finally got to shoot a few and damn it even shot the Crosman hollow points and at 25 and 30 was shooting 1/2 inch groups. These cleaning tips are nice, hard to get to start in the chamber but once in they go very smooth. Chipmunks better beware, 31 down with a dirty barrel this thing will really lay waste when they show up this spring. . Also, waiting on the Crosman Two Stage Trigger, should be here in a few more days. I have the need hammer from AlchemyAirworks just waitin.

Oh man, good to be back. Went on an adventure to the other side of the world, met the girl of my dreams, but I still can’t seem to get away from this damn hobby even knowing it will drain my bank account : )

I’m sure I’m not alone in this regard, I absolutely love the aesthetics of PCPs (Airguns in general). They come in many shapes and sizes,from the elegant, to the tactical, and unique. And with the holidays coming up my gf asked me if there’s anything I’d like.

With that said I’d love to hear everyone’s thoughts on what you think are some of the best looking pic/mlok accessories, grips, foregrips, replacement butt stocks, scope rings, you name it, to kit out some of these beauties (if available for purchase please provide links).

This is my current top contender but looking forward to seeing what everyone posts!

Btw hope everyone has a fantastic Thanksgiving!

(Also sorry to drop this in general but it kinda bled over multiple other more specific sub-forums.)

It was a beautiful day in Texas so
I practiced being a human bipod like those PRS guys

Hi everyone on my quest to find a Huben K one I just wanted to share something with everyone that happened to my good friend who has an is the reason I want the Huben shot himself last week because he did not have the safety on while walking through the woods. He slipped walking down a hill and shot himself through the foot. He was wearing $250 red wings boots that are very well-made. But it was not enough for the human penetrated the boots penetrate it through his foot and penetrate it out the bottom of the boots. I have noticed from just my experience. And shooting air rifles and being around people shooting air rifles sometimes they can get downplayed cause they’re not a “real gun” but fact of the matter is a lot of them put out serious power so please be careful and always treat them the same as any weapon and keep your safety on until you are 100% ready to take your shot at your target. He is OK and just got out of the hospital but it was a 42 grain slug so if that shot were elsewhere, it could’ve been vital. Thanks everyone and happy thanksgiving

By the way the photo showing his actual foot if you look at his toe, there’s a green circle/ball that is the pin that looks like an Allen key and that is to grab it and pull it out once it’s ready. That pin goes through his toe to the back of his heel. Sounds painful as all hell

I am looking at replacing my .25 caliber with a ghost. I see lots of people have the Ghost in .22 cal and the gun seems to shoot the .22 33.9 grain pellets effortlessly. Is a .25 33.95 gr going to buck wind better than a .22? If the .22 is longer and the same weight will it have a better BC than a .25?
Range is 75-100 yards for ground squirrels and 50 yards for marmots.

Sold Pending Funds….Selling my Saber Tactical GEN2 Crown Chassis. Picked this up for bench shooting. Just not doing much bench shooting so I switched back to my synthetic stock.

Pay Pal FF please.

Hi all and Happy Thanksgiving. I saw that Harbor Freight has their rifle case on sale again for $99.00. I believe that for the price, they are bargain. I think you may need one of their coupons for that price. Unless you are an Inside Track member, it appears you have to wait until Friday to get the $70.00 off $169.00 price. Just a heads up regarding the price.

Have a great start to your Holiday season. Happy and straight shooting to everyone!

This worked out great. Using a belt across my torso, with the Huben behind me, it is a mini scabbard. It's, (the stock), is fully adjustable. Can go higher for scope use. I made a pattern and sent it, as well as measurements to my friend Jim in Ohio who did the fabrication. Many thanks, Jim. Also, I put a piece of thin plastic between the Huben block and the stocks mounting plate to prevent marring the Huben. Bill and Addi

I had a conversation the other day with a fellow field target shooter that led me to contemplate what "doing my best" vs. "doing the best that I can do" means to me. I think I put my finger on an important difference.

Doing my best on the range is achievable every time out. It means successfully using the skills and equipment I have and getting the best score I can expect under the conditions that day. It means not having any of those "Dang, I shouldn't have missed that one!" shots. No matter my score I come away feeling good when I do my best (conversely I still grumble to myself when I don't do my best even if I got high match score, lol). It is what I strive for every match. I witnessed the same from a competitor recently when he posted his "career high" score as he put it. He didn't win the match but he was still exuberant.

Doing the best that I can do..........I don't know what that is and I will never find out. It's somewhere the other side of the line I draw where fun becomes tedious, repetitious, nauseous practice. It's the tumultuous rare air occupied by champions who are never satisfied and always strive to improve no matter how good they are and that's what makes them champions. I don't want to live there.

I think I like striving to do my best best.

Hello,
I was wondering what you folks consider YOUR perfect squirrel buster rifle setup? Maybe you have it already who knows. What gun, caliber, pellets or slugs, preferred max shot distance, power level, etc. I currently use a rti prophet 1 with the 22lr barrel shooting 25.39 at about 947 for about 50fpe. I am sighted in at 30 yds.

Let's hear and see those squirrel busters!

Thanks
Jon
