Does anyone that shoot in the back yard have a neighbor come over and question what your doing as your PCP sounds like a gun going off?

How do you deal with that ? What do you say? I looked at the local laws here in GA and it's totally legal to shoot a PCP rifle on your property. I explained that this is a pellet rifle and shooting targets. She still seemed concerned as her kids on occasion may walk through my back yard as it's easy access to the woods and creek crossing as I have a small bridge and makes it easy access. Honestly I dont mind. I dont want to stir up anything nor do I want to create any tension in the neighborhood. I didnt say anything to inflame the situation like hey keep your kids off my property or there trespassing or nothing at all. I do not want to stir stuff up. Regardless If I hear kids in the back I stop shooting and just call it a day. In this particular instance the kids were no where near my property or the back yard the parent still felt compelled to ring my door bell and question me as she heard me shooting.

I understand thier concern as I have kids too. Just looking to hear about what if anyone else out there has said or done in a similar situation.

The setting: I live on a flood plane so there are no houses close to me. My back yard is HUGE since its a flood plane there are no homes directly behind me for at least 500yds if not more. I have a house on each side they sit about 30 yds on one side and I have a vacant lot on the other and the next house is like 100yds away. I shoot from a window that faces out to the back of the house. It's all woods with a creek in the back. Kids from the neighborhood like to go back into the woods and play in the creek which runs behind my house.

NOTE: I added a picture of my back yard. For more context. I live at the End of a cul-de-sac which backs up to a wooded preserve (30-50 acre) flood plane. I see more dear and coytee back there than kids. BUT they do wander back there and I'm sure this summer when it warms up there will be more showings.

I have an old wheel barrel as a backstop to my zero targets. As you can see in the picture. Do i need to move it closer to the targets?

Just want to share some mods I have done to my AVA. Yes people will say I did the crowning on the wrong end it's because I want to improve round feeding and the other end already has a slight chamfer on it already from the factory, grinding it would make cleaning up much difficult.

I started out with AE Swede's starter pack: shroud adapter + bottle adapter and tube block off + plenum
I bought the bottle regulator from aliexpress now they are available on his website as well.







I didn't feel like going all "tacticool" by wasting $150 on a couple thin pieces and the chassis isn't aesthetically appealing to me either. I'm not affiliated with Aaron by any means but you can tell his stuff are well made(7075 aluminum will kick your butt if you try to drill it) at a very REASONABLE price. I have had several conversations with him and I found he's very knowledgeable and easy to work with. I understand people like hajimoto need to make profit to feed his family but his stuff is way overpriced and he promotes his products like they are the sh1t and they are better than the rest, anyways not a big fan of him.

I always keep budget in mind as this is a budget gun it doesn't make sense to throw $500 worth of parts to "upgrade" it, at the end of the day it'll just be a ricered out Honda compared to a well made Porsche like the Impact M3.

Everybody nowadays likes some CF stuff so I think for less than $30 why not then I bought some CF tubing for shroud and barrel. It just happened that the shroud is almost the same diameter as the stock one and the CF barrel tubing fits perfectly over the barrel. I epoxy'd the tubing to the barrel for more rigidity.




After I installed his kit I wanted to make a reinforcement block that would shroud the port sections together as I didn't have a barrel band in the front at the time. It took me 40 hours of R&D and 6 iterations to finally make it fit like a glove.




Top 3 holes for shroud venting
And I also 3D printed new barrel dampeners to keep it centered.



As I have mentioned above it's a budget gun so I made my moderator with a Costco soda bottle with some closed cell foam around a PVC tubing, it worked surprisingly well. For the bipod it's the same story just a couple sections of PVC tubing with street elbows nothing special.


Now that the front is rock solid I moved my focus to increasing the air flow. I port matched the barrel port to the same size as the transfer port(whatever size your drill bit will fit into your transfer port that's the size I used). I did not want to fully take the receiver apart to work on the transfer port from the block as the top portion is threaded to open it up you will ruin the threads and have to tap for bigger size threads. I don't feel confident in doing this much work on a casted piece so I only worked on the barrel instead, honestly for a 22cal I think this will be enough.


The final mod that I just finished was to fill the buttstock with silicone rubber to dampen the echo from the cheap plastic. But in order to do that I hot ironed around the logo to lay down a bead of epoxy as it was leaking water when I tested it.


This silicone rubber kit worked great. You don't necessarily have to use a vacuum chamber like I did as the kit states the mix will degas by itself I'm just doing it for extra insurance and finish.




If anyone wants to do this mod I suggest you keep the foam to save yourself some material and also to not make it overly rear heavy.

This should wrap up my adventure with my AVA. Now that I have my M3 on the way I don't think I will perform any more mods to this gun. As of how well it shoot and the statistics, I'd say it's as accurate as it can be at 50 yards, I detuned the regulator to only 1200psi, when at 2200psi it was shooting Crosman Premier Hollow Point Pellet .22 cal, 14.3 Gr @ ~850fps so I would guess it should be around 750fps now just don't have time to get it chrono'd.

Hello everyone
I have bought the FX crown continum MK2 last year, with 380mm and 700mm barrels, but on the end of barrel from the pellet probe side there is ( one hole on up side mark with P and and on down side 2 holes mark with S), what does it means
Plz guide me

For you that shoot CO2 pistols. If you could only own one CO2 pistol. Which one?

My pick would be a 38T .22 the reasons. It's a .22, very fun to shoot. Accurate single action, a great trigger not bad as a double action. The history behind the two models. It almost all metal construction. The gun is not complicated to repair. 5 easy mods for it. The revolver has the weight, the size, the correct grips, the adjustable sights, firing action and all the features in which the pistol it replicates.

Oh did I mention how much fun they are?

This might be dating me a little bit, but many of you out there still remember the great comedian, Red Skelton. This is inspired by him. If there isn't another bird a despise almost as much as the greasy invasive starling, it's the pompous ruckus grackle. The grackle is back in bigger numbers then before, maybe due to the mild winter in this part of the country. Woke up to a gray cloudy misting dismal day and resigned myself to a shootless day. But alas, the dreaded grackke was settin in the top of a tree a mere 50 yds away as if chiding me in his squawking voice. I tried to resist the temptation, but my trigger finger started to twitch! I grabbed my trusty 22 Mav Sniper and beaded in the grackle, Gertrude, sitting on the tippity top of the tree. Gertrude sit there squawking as grackles do presenting a side profile to me. I lined up the crosshairs on her wing area and pulled the trigger. Anchored her with nary a flap. As soon as I did this, her mate, Heathcliff landed in the same spot looking for Gertrude and like the compassionate gentleman that I am, I helped Heathcliff find her by sending him down to her! I used 27.5 gr .2175 NSA HP slugs fired at about 960FPS. The photos show on both the barely discernable entry and the blown out exits. No more robbing the bird feeders and chasing the protected birds away! Both Gertrude and Heathcliff together forever! And for the trolls---

I’m in the market for a new scope and I am considering placing an order for one of these new “lightweight“ 30mm Arken’s…. Anyone here using one of these yet?
How do you like it?


I am still open to other recommendations for something similar/comparable as well. Looks like these Arken’s are 2-4 weeks out on shipping currently...
This will be going on a Brocock Sniper XR Magnum in .22 for reference and I’d like something with 20+ power but I’d also like to keep the weight down.

Thanks!

I've tried my Fatboy on several different guns, with little love, money fer nuthin. It actually sorta works on pistols (under 700fps). But yeah, looks a bit silly.

Messing around today, I took it apart, removed the felt or whatever the black stuff is that's wrapped around the baffle assembly.
WHAT, will work, as tested on my full length, RTI Prophet Performance I. Shooting at about 820fps.

Note - the info below was tested indoors, by ear only. No cheap, $50 gadgets, no million dollar, dB (proper way of writing the symbol) chamber and test equipment.

- The factory black (felt ?) stuff, wrapped around the baffle. Quieter than nothing, but not back yard friendly by any stretch (even at my low fps !).
- Nothing, just the big can, with a bare baffle. Not much difference than with the factory wrap material, slightly louder.
- Closed cell foam, around the baffle. Slightly...louder than the factory black wrap.
- Open cell foam, around the baffle. About the same as the factory wrap.
- Old Levi's, pant leg material, wrapped semi-tightly around the baffle. Woo, what the hell, this actually worked pretty well.

Now I can hear much more of the mechanical stuff under my ear, from the receiver, than with any of the other tests ! The sound is slightly softer also, much of the "crack" is gone.
Yes, the factory screen was and is still in place for all of the tests.

Worked pretty well in my case, give it a try if you have an old pair of Levi's (brand) laying around .
No guarantee implied !!

Hello everyone
I want to buy FX crown MK2 synthetic in.22 cal,
Plz guide me frnds should i buy this airgun or not
Because some body told me that this airgun has some leakage issues and accuracy issues aldo

I was resisting buying that barrel tuner for a good long time and got it only when everybody had at least one ... I got one for my .25x700mm barrel.
Then after several months the barrel tensioners surfaces, me again playing smart and not buying it yet, but so far I cannot say the tuner is/was a wooow improvement.
My current winter project is about swapping my MK2 barrels from .25x700 to .22x600 , and of course the 700 tuner doesn't work - without chopping the length...or get a new 600 tensioner ...
Now my question to people who have both the tuner and the tensioner ... obviously one works better then the other one ...
Which one is placebo and which one really works better?

As a new Weihrauch owner I am seeking AGN member advice on beech gunstock maintenance. I have recently acquired two new rifles (HW50S, HW30S) both of which have the new-style beech stock (cutout under cheek area) and would like suggestions on what can be done to treat these stocks for long term use. The options I'm considering at this point are Tru-Oil, some type of wax or polish (Tru-Polish?) or boiled & thinned Linseed Oil.

The Beech wood seems light in color and I expect some sort of darkening if any treatment is applied. I'm planning disassembly for cleaning / kit installation shortly and felt that it would also be a good time for stock prep. I'm thinking that some type of light oil-wax solution might be just right.

I'm also open to any information regarding the current factory finish on these stocks and whether leaving them as is is the preferred option. I'm not interested in any treatments that would involve removal of any factory-applied finishes, just some preservative-type actions or treatments. Thanks in advance - I've searched the forums for info on this subject but didn't find anything directly related.

So here it is. Selling one of my three Leshiy 2’s.

It’s a .25 350 with an alpha precision barrel set at 150 bar. It’s pushing 33 grain NSA’s at about 830ish+.

Everything you see comes with it. Functions, flawlessly, in excellent condition. Three mags, shroud, Magpul grips, the whole shabing bang.

Looking for $1,750 shipped. PayPal F&F or add 3%.

Thank you,

I purchased a compressor for my Evol 30 but the fill whip doesn't fit the male nipple that comes in the Evol. AAA recommend me to Air Tank Plus but honestly dont want to spend 80$ on a fill whip. Any recommendations out there? Can i maybe build one?

Joe Brancato TJ3 Dual Gauges SCBA Slow-Flow Valve with Din300 fill adaptor. Very good conditions, M18 thread (for most SCBA sourced from china). The 2.5' glycerin filled main gauge reads out clearly and accurately the air going into your gun. The 1.7″ dial gauge shows the air reserves in the air tank at all times.

Listing price $169 shipped to CONUS. Plus $49 for a new Joe's 40'' microbore fill hose. I prefer PayPal F&F or buyer add 3.5%, also accept Venmo. No trade, thank you!

I just got this Crosman 760-C. I dug out an old Marlin Micro-vue 4x scope that I have. I've never had the scope mounted to anything. Figured I might as well use it now,,,lol. Would this be considered an ok scope for the 760?

I have run into a bit of a snag though. I can not get the front bell off the scope to put the front scope ring on. And the scope really needs to move back. I fear if I use any kind of tools on it it will damage it. Could I maybe heat up the threads with something? I assume a micro torch would affect the bluing? What about a soldering iron? Or should I not use ANY kind of heat?

What would you guys suggest. Or I guess I could just use the rear ring,,,lol. I've seen people do that but I think it looks goofy.

Thanks for any input.

So go to Walmart to grab some spray paint . I just use the cheap 89¢ stuff to cover the pellet marks or just clean em up a bit . I get to the shelve and could not believe it's now 2.89$ .

I was like "man im glad im not using the good stuff " ..lol... Still what a jump in price. I had to walk around some to think about even getting any .. wow.

Then I guess i better hope my bank dont fail before the charge card clears..

About 15 months ago I bought a great white tank which I tried to have filled locally at a dive shop. They told me on the phone they could get me close to 4,500 psi.
But when I got the bottle filled it read 3,600psi and by the time I got it home and it had cooled off, it was at 3,300 psi. My AEA airgun fills to 3,3300 psi, so that's next to useless for me! My backup plan was to buy a Alpha filter from Joe, along with the tank, but they didn't have any in stock at the time. So now my $$$ airgun setup has been sitting collecting dust for over a year.

I have a YH compressor but would need a good filter before I use it to fill up my tank. Alpha filters are $400 from Joe. Money is not a problem, but that seems like a LOT of money for a filter. A lot has changed since I bought my YH 5-6 years ago. Am I better off putting that $400 towards a better compressor with a built in filter, like the Tuxing? When I bought my YH it was just to fill up my marauder to 3,000psi, not to fill a big tank to 4,500psi!


I have a serious case of analysis paralysis and need some good advice guys!

Actually the question is two fold, is it a good idea to polish the Belleville washers in a AMP, or any other regulator, does it actually help? And two, what are the darn dimensions of them, I did something silly and reassembled mine before measuring them, anxious anticipation and itchy trigger finger. Oh sorry, it's a Maverick, details details.

Ah hah, got lucky, found part of the answer across the pond, 10mm od, 4mm id, .4mm thickness.

Why so many you may ask, well one...they are cheap and two, I've got 2 Mavericks for sizing and if I mess up the polishing, I'm good to go.
