HW/Weihrauch  New HW97K

I started with a pcp and liked air rifle shooting so much I decided to try a springer. I got a HW35 and was smitten. Suddenly, I no longer found hand pumping the tank of my pcp tolerable. Sold the pcp today and realized I needed another springer. When I got the hw35 I was actually looking for an hw30 but couldn't find one so I bought the hw35 and preordered a 30. Once again, I looked for a 30 in stock and couldn't find one so you can see that I had no choice but to buy the hw97. I ordered it from AoA and do not know when it will arrive but there is no point in waiting till the last minute. So, I am going through my available scopes and have a Vortex Crossfire II 6-18X44 and a Votex Strike Eagle 4-24X50. The gun will be shot off the bench at bullseye targets similar to the Green Monster, for score. I would shoot field target if there were any such shoots in my area but no luck there.

Not having seen the rifle in the flesh I am wondering if the better scope (Strike Eagle) might be too large and heavy for the rifle. Any thoughts on the best size scope would be helpful. It seems like a heavy enough rifle to handle a large scope, especially with the underlever cocking, but I am just guessing.

N/A  A target I couldn’t resist

Got caught again at AGS. Went in to get a scope (Element) and rings. I have a HW98 .20 en route. Also scored 10 tins .20 cal. rounds.
My antenna went up , I could smell a squirrel. I saw him and took him home as well.

I couldn’t resist, a Balistic gel tree rat.

Because of his size I tortured him with a HW30 .177. Few shots to the head and heart. So cool.
I would think most other springers would go through.

‘When I’m done with these. I have to get a slow cooking pot at a yard sale. These will melt down for reuse. I have the mold for it. Crow
Forgot to mention. We can expect the new Air Arms in soon.

Accessories  SOLD Mini Lathe (7X12) for sale.

03 OCT 2023 SOLD SOLD SOLD and delivered to New Mexico.

Back up for sale. My new to me lathe is now up and running so this one is superfluous to my needs.
This little lathe has 3 features that my new bigger lathe doesn't have:

1 .Ability to change speed range with a lever behind headstock.
2. Ability to stop the carriage drive screw rotation with a lever in same location as above.
3. Thread position indicator dial which makes threading a breeze.

I have outgrown my 7X12 mini lathe. It has served me well. I have used it to thread barrels, chamber barrels, make adapters for muzzle devices, make valve poppets and a lot of other general fabrication of small parts for other machines.
I have used it for nylon, PEEK, delrin and other plastics as well as aluminum, steel, stainless steel and titanium.
I am getting a larger one so this one must go.

It has steady rest and follower rest as well as a chuck plate for mounting odd items (never used).
4 way indexed tool post.
Drill chuck / key and MT2 shank for mounting in the tail stock.
A set of change gears is included.
A set of inside and outside jaws as well.
Lathe chuck is 3" and includes a wrench.
2 metric end wrenches included.
Original Box (cardboard)

It comes with both metric and SAE thread rod kits (carriage drive threaded rod) , metric is installed.
Manual included as well.

The head stock 3/4" bore will accept most airgun barrel diameters.

I do not have PayPal since they refused to pay me the balance by check from my account quite some time back and have expressed sociopolitical views entirely incongruent with my own.

I will accept personal / business checks, cash, gold or silver as payment.

Price is $400 plus actual shipping cost.

It weighs 90 lbs. so shipping will be high. Pick up would be the best option and I'll throw in a free 1 day predator / hog hunt on my property as well.
You get everything in the pictures below:

FX  Impact barrel cleaning

I've owned FX rifles and cleaned the barrels occasionally. They were dirty of course, but not overly. Cleaning the barrels on my Impacts is a different story. After less than a tin of pellets, they are absolutely filthy, by comparison with other FX guns that I have owned. It's the same on both the .22 and 25. Cals.

It's not a big deal, and it doesn't seem to affect the accuracy. I just wonder what might be the cause and if anyone else has had the same experience.

Pellet pouch for shooting afield.

Most of my shooting is from a table so there's plenty of room to have pellets easily accessible. With my deck under construction my table is gone. Today I tried to shoot offhand in the open yard. Bending down to the ground to pick up a single pellet for every shot made for a short session.

I know back in the day people made pellet pouches that attached to their belt. Is there something that would work similarly that's readily available or made?

PCP Rifle  SOLD AEA SF Standard, .25 Semi Auto, Very Low Price

I will sell the gun for 1/2 of its' retail price which is $800 plus shipping and taxes. Shipped to your door for $400.00
The gun does not include the scope, bipod, or suppressor.
The gun does include the following:
1 3 magazines
2 Fill probe
3 Donnyfl 1/2x20 adapter
4 Tube band with picatinny rail.

The gun came from AEA Northeast. It started jamming in semi auto mode so I sent it back to Pete who claimed it was fixed.
The gun arrived and continued to jam, so I sent it to Bin Tac the AEA USA importer. The gun arrived and still had jamming issues.
I was told it was user error, nothing wrong with the gun. I don't believe that. The jamming issue is still unsolved.

So what you have is a gun that works perfectly in bolt action mode, holds air, reg works well, but will jam in semi auto mode.
** It is important that the buyer understand the jamming issues. I am trying to be completely honest, it will eventually jam in semi auto.

Umarex  Notos O ring List- Lets put them ALL here

Okay guys I wanted to compile the O ring dimensions used on the Notos since I couldn't find a schematic. If there is one available please post it here.

In installing the plenum I was told by the plenum seller to check barrel o rings cause my FPS was lower than it should be. I found one article listing what size for OUTER o rings to get and I ordered them.

They arrived and look like this
20230830_203914.jpg

The two vertical are OEM and others are O Ring Store. You can see the OEM are bigger ID. Yes OEM might be stretched but they definitely were chewed up from the factory hence FPS loss.

I measured the OUTER 2 barrel o rings here:

And OD

OD

If someone got different results let me know I'm not a machinist just a casual caliper owner lol

Please post the rest of the O ring sizes for whomever to use so we can keep these awesome Notos's shooting strong!

Taipan  A novelty

Now this is not a recognized staple of this platform, but I felt it should be known anyway. I recently obtained a vet 2 in 22 cal. Well we all know the high power capabilities with this gun as it’s often mentioned. My post regards low power performance, particularly shot count. I tuned the gun down to 18 FPE, or about 715 FPS with 16g pellets which includes diabolos, polymags, and atomics/ hades. From a 240 bar fill, I got 145 shots on that single fill down to 120 bar. Seems remarkable to me. High power stock was 40 shots at 45 FPE with 25.4g redesigns going 895 FPS. Gun may be heavy to walk around with. However, seems quite versatile.

Brocock/BRK  Atomic/Ranger XRs, Not pistolas…

There are some that believe the Atomic/Ranger XRs are first, pistols, that convert to sweet mini carbines. But please understand only a minute minority would ever consider using them as such. They’re just too big for any practical pistol purposes. So getting that out of the way, the Atomic/Ranger XRs handle like SBRs. Easy to manipulate and deploy, outsize punch for their sizes. And they consistently perform when it counts. Pests or game rarely give a second chance. With my BRKs I send at pests with high confidence and don’t need a “second chance”. Mostly, one shot kills… Like bow hunting, get close, or let them come in, then send. The Atomic/Rangers XRs are not designed for bench rest, target shooting, etc. Yes mine will group awesome when I do my part. But more importantly, its in field use where they shine and consistently perform. Mine are with me for the long haul and will be passed down… They’re that good.

  • Question
FX  New gun or modify existing?

Hey was looking for some opinions. Have an FX Impact M3 in the compact version. In 30/22. Wanted to get more into slugs so would you guys modify the compact for $700 ish or buy a dedicated slugger? Also own a huben in .25 and a prophet 1 in .22/.25. Plus some others in the mid range. Adding more guns seems like a waste of money ant this point. Also are the prophet RPB barrels competitive with FX barrels for slugs?

Crosman  Discontinued but not disregarded

The Crosman 1720t is highly regarded as one of the most accurate pistols made. Minute of fly’s ball sac. I’ve never considered buying the 1720t as a pistol as it’s too big for my taste. But when I saw one in a bullpup stock for a great price I jumped on it. Took me a bit to get used to the bullpup stock, it’s not the most ergonomic. After I figured out a comfortable hold, I was able to shoot tic tac sized groups consistently (@ 25 yards). The dfl Koi that came with it makes it so all you hear is the hammer hit the valve stem. It’s currently set up to shoot 10.3 gr dome pellets at 750 fps for 40 shots. It’s so fun shooting this little pup that I don’t mind the single loading or the rear cocking bolt. Don’t know why crosman discontinued this gem.
