Went to get in my car and noticed these. I had damage chewing to my dump truck. Don’t want them anywhere near my car. Got in my attic in the city and my store and sheds. Major damage. Never again. Crow

My Wife let me retire last Friday ...... now my daytime activities will mostly be filled with the "Honey-Do" list.
Landscaping the yard, replacing the carpet and painting the inside of the house are TOPS right now, but ...

I also just bought another RAW HM1000x - .25 caliber - Blue Laminate.

Further, I purchased two LW barrels, (1) .22 caliber and the other .20 caliber. I will be fitting them on my lathe, getting new CF barrel tubing as well as making LDC's.

It's gonna be fun ....

Lightly used Donnyfl 25/30cal with an additional insert, I'm assuming is a 22cal (slightly smaller). I bought it from a member a couple of months ago and decided to go a different route. Asking $125 shipped, PP F&F please. It is the 12" X 20 version.
Thanks

I currently just put my name on a reserved list for the Evanix Viper; I want to know what kind of experiences yall had with this PCP.

Somebody has to be shooting Skout. we've heard no reports from the users, good or bad, leaks no leaks. Hit's no hits, ergonomics no ergonomics. somebody has to be shooting these things. who's hiding what?

I have an excellent DrozdMax Blackbird full auto machine BB gun. It slings bbs at about 1000fps and can be varied with air pressure applied. 400+ rounds per minute. Capable.to run off of CO2 or HPA. This one is upgraded with a longer barrel and full auto chip. It also has single shot and 3 shot burst with the full auto. It is alot of fun and the most powerf bb gun i habe ever seen. Makes short work of coconuts at 25 yds and penetrates much more than most anticipate. This is for sale or trade at $800 shipped, cash is king. I would love to keep it, but i do not own a compressor and hand pumping this thing is a chore, doable but not fun.

Welp, I wasted $499; I have trouble with the SS hp .25 cal. The bolt rod is stripped because it can not handle itself. I experience jam after jam; my magazines stop functioning properly the second day using it. I feel foolish for paying so much for something I thought would be awesome. Can anybody point me to the right website to get genuine replacement parts?

saw this on the leshiy 2 Facebook page

Picked up a 22 cal HW97k on the classifieds. I was impressed with the fit and finish right away. The seller indicated that they installed a p3 ho kit and added some baffles to the mod / muzzle break. Well, finally put a few shots through it. That's when my jaw hit the floor! Now my only previous experience with spring / gas piston guns was a "bear river" 177 of my friends and a Benjamin trail 22. Both of those have a rather robust kick upon firing. trigger pull was anywhere from 2.5-3.5 Lbs and frankly, no fun to shoot. I was also only able to achieve minimal accuracy. Now comes this platform, no ping, spring twang is very muffled. trigger pull 5-6 oz, yes! I double checked my lyman gage. the DB output? A dull thuded 99db. Outside of cocking the underlever for each round and a very manageable recoil on firing, I'd think I was shooting a PCP. I originally bought this for my friend, but , I may just have to keep this jewel. Going to shoot groups in a bit and see how bad I am. Never thought I'd be looking at a breaker more than in passing. Wonderful piece of machinery. The current stats:
Trigger pull - 5-6oz
Loudness - Dull 99db, no twang
Energy - 15-16FPE
14.3g - 690 FPS
14.6 - 707 FPS
15.9 - 664 FPS
18g - 635 FPS

Looking at my first higher end rifle to buy in a few months(hopefully) after I pay the IRS their blood money for the year.

Anyhow, I'm more interested in carbine size guns, so I'm wondering what's everyone's input on these fine British offerings?

I'm currently thinking the daystate revere, BSA Ultra CLX, or an Air Arms S410. Caliber will be 22 only, not interested in those little 177s and I've got 25 covered.

I had a BSA ultra jsr for a couple months and loved the action, I just couldn't use it well due to the tiny grip area. I could barely get 2 fingers on it and it was awkward. I actually enjoyed the rear bolt on that gun, so the AA s410 with a rear bolt would be fine.

So who has these and who likes which better? Give me a rope and harness to drop only so far into the next rabbit hole!

Thanks all!

Yes Folks, Mr. Air Pistol's (all-round) favorite air pistol of hundreds owned, tested, hunted, competed, and chronicled may well be the Russian-made Ataman AP16. But is it perfect in all regards? No. However in my book(s) it covers more bases extremely well than any other. However, One should always "consider the source" of glowing reviews. Even the most experienced air pistolero's opinions are only that- ONE individual's OPINION. And although I've been smitten with my AP from the get-go, the latest changes heightened my appreciation of it even further.

Per my usual pathology, one of my highest priorities after initial testing was to explore maximum power potentials. Air pistol EXTREME Field Target competition as an excuse, the AP16 maxed-out three foot-pounds shy of the 20 foot pound power limit. However it was comfortably above the fifteen foot pound minimum I recommend to drop LARGE, HEAVY extreme field targets reliably to 55 yards. The APs (relatively) light weight is a handicap in EPFT, but it's stellar trigger action and excellent accuracy really "hit the spot" (if the shooter does his part).

It's nothing less than a phenomenal hunting pistol. Air pistol hunting being a small-game and pest proposition, most air pistols limit maximum hunting ranges to 20-30 yards. While the AP doesn't, most shooters skills do. Humans simply aren't capable of better than 3/4" groups at 50 yards with a handgun, even from a good sand-bagged bench-rest. The AP16 is capable of such remarkably pistol accuracy.

The changes mentioned above that heightened my appreciation for this wonderment of air-gunnery relate to reducing the maximum power by just one foot pound. Apparently hundreds of rounds must have also contributed to the startling, 70% increase in shot-count; from 23 shots per 280 BAR fill at 17 foot pounds, to 40 shots per 250 BAR fill at 16 foot pounds.

That she's running so much more efficiently now might also explain why the muzzle bark is enough less painful to shoot without the muzzle gizmo, thereby improving the aesthetics considerably. Enough to warrant the 'nudie' photo above.

I've read numerous posts concerning barrel polishing. It seems the general rule is to start with JB's bore cleaning compound, followed by something something like JB's Bore Brite; with cleaning the barrel between polishing compounds. What I've read is mostly in reference to new barrels. Does the same two step polishing technique apply to barrels that have many rounds through them? My FX Dreamline .22 barrel has had over 20,000 rounds through it.

The small vent hole on the side of my shoebox is venting a small amount of air during operation. I believe the problem is the very small O-ring that sits inside the space where the vent knob is located. Anyone know what size 0-ring I need for replacement. It is NOT the burst disk.

I am seriously considering getting one of these rifles. I really like having a semi-auto option. Does anyone have personal experience with them? What are the pros and cons. Is it a legitimate deer hunting rifle, or should I get something else for deer hunting?

Was at Wally World yesterday and found this on clearance. Set it up in the basement at 10 yards. This is going to be a lot of fun. Nothing like standing at 10 yardsticks open sights trying to hit a moving target. So far best is 7 shots to get all 5.

I can see where I am going to need to source more foam balls. Tried ping pong balls, but they are too heavy. May have to re-engineer it for more power for the ping pong balls. And an AC power source will last longer than the 4 D cells.

I am finally ready to get serious about placing my order

If Im not mistaken, all the Alkin compressors are freight shipped directly from the manufacturer regardless of who I order it from and the prices are all preset by the manufacturer as well… so I suppose it doesn’t make much difference which authorized seller I choose to do business with as far as attempting to find any “better deals” is that about right?

Is there any source you know of that actually keep inventory in stock? I kinda wish I would have been able to finalize my purchase prior to 2023, as apparently Alkin no longer offers the manual shutoff version which could have saved me enough to pay for a JB Great White!

Where do you guys recommend I place my order through? I’m in California near Sacramento if that affects the recommendation - Thanks!

I arrived at a neighbors farm today and saw one pigeon on the nearest silo. Got my 25 cal Impact out and snuck down to the equipment shed for a rest and a closer shot. It had flown off the nearest silo and landed on the farthest one that I ranged at 95 yards. Lucky for me, unlucky for the pigeon I’d just come from my range and had shot the Impact at 100 yards. I knew exactly where to hold and took the shot knocking it off the silo. Farthest kill shot I ever made with an air rifle! Went into the barn and scared a couple more into the hay mow. Took me a minute to adjust to the light and found both sitting on a beam and dropped one at maybe 15 yards. The 25 cal really hits hard compared to my 177’s!

I walk my dog at night, we are experiencing a coyote population explosion.

Fairly populated area, don't want to use a PB. Just want to be able to fire a number of pellets quickly in the dark if the need arises.
I'm thinking a red dot ready CO2 would do the trick.

I usually am wearing a headlamp, so a gun mounted light wouldn't necessarily be needed.

I have the red dot. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Bob

I think mine will be a Coltri MCH6 compressor. It kinda hits a high end sweet spot for airgunners since Alkin raised their prices, and I'm tired of maintaining and repairing the (cheap Chinese) water cooled compressors. Of course Shot Show 2023 just ended - lots of goodies coming soon - so...what's your next purchase?
