I just do not understand the distance thing , when i was on a farm you had to get close enough to throw a stone at birds to get them to move .
Do modern birds fly off when you step off the porch 150 feet from the barn ? watching the video's one shot and poof all fly off ? when i was a kid i would shoot one and maybe a few next to it would move . But my old red rider did not make much noise and you had to get close to kill .

So about two months ago I snagged a set of refurb ATN Binox 4-16 binoculars.

I bought them so my buddy Matt could come pesting with me at night. His job was to spot for me, thats why these were bought. I was asked by another member if I would give a review on them.

So looking through the sightmark 4k mini (or any NV scope with a cusp for that matter) can get extremely strenuous on the eye when viewing and scanning for long periods of time. Having SOMEONE ELSE (key phrase here) being able to spot with these binos has made it amazing. The FOV is small, so small its almost disappointing but what Matt and I found was that he could see my IR beam in his view and I could see his, so for spotting where you have a second spotter, these are awesome, it makes target acquisition so fast. We purposely focused his IR beam so that it really stood out in my FOV looking through my sightmark. I would say that looking through these binos is less strain on the eye as you are viewing with both eyes but it is still tiresome due to being focused in on a TV screen essentially very close to your eyes.

As far as picture quality goes, its bad unless its mounted on a tripod, or you can remain completely steady.

Video quality is superb and I am hoping that my video is going to upload for you to see.

Clarity is very very good looking through these binos, far far better than the atn 4k pro scope I had, they make that scope look like fisher price. The microphone also barely pics up my voice with my standing directly behind them, or in front of them, or to either side of them so there's that to think about as well.

It also sucks battery down pretty quickly if you are out using it continuously , much like other NV scopes with the cr123 batteries.

In the end I would not purchase these with the intention of using them to spot for yourself due to the small FOV and the strain on the eyes that is still there albeit not as bad as looking through a monocular optic. If you have the luxury of having someone else pest with you without a rifle then absolutely a pair of refurbs will suit you well. I would also say that if I didnt pay refurb price I would be far , far less thrilled.

EDIT: I think I figured out the Mic thing, bad hand placement, I had my hands placed differently when recording this video so maybe I was covering the mic before?

Hello Everyone - just saying hello.

*Update* updated pics and measurements taken*
Tuned by the ol famous Will so it's running good and shooting hard. Rifle has been babied but it does have scuffs and scratches from the previous owner. Holds pressure. I believe I have spare o-rings x2 for it as well. I also have Wills pressure numbers, just have to find it.
Shoot me reasonable offers. Gun shoots great. Bought from a member here a year or two ago. Have some decent scopes for extra dinero.
New, they go for 700-800. Will attach pictures tomorrow and sort out what I'm willing to throw in. Have lots of goodies for it like lots of ammo, hand pump, air compressor, sights, soft case, extra magazines, and a sling. I would prefer to unload everything all at once. I am willing to let it go for a good price just don't low ball me.
*Edit* Pictures added. The scope you see on the rifle is the BugBuster by UTG, 3-9X32 1" and has AO, RGB Mil-dot, QD Rings. I also have a nice little red dot sight but I have to find it first.
As you can see I have slugs and pellets, not pictured above, but I have a box of about 5-10 tins of various pellets/slugs with different grain weights, if interested I can dig them out for you.
Last picture is an Orion Motor Tech compressor still sitting in its box from the day of delivery. It's currently on Amazon for $215.

Saw this video from Rick or shooter 1721 and WOW!!! Even this Impact fanboy didn’t think this much power is possible with a compact or 500mm barrel! Mind bending!

.25 Marauder w/2 mags
HDD - hammer de-bounce device installed
1" Scope mount - BKL - link

Hardly used with upgraded hammer de-bouncer. It shoots accurately I just don't shoot it anymore. Holds air, no problems.

PP or Venmo friends and fam or you pay fees.

Picked up a D56 and it was shooting great. Noticed the slide became pretty loose and wasn't locking forward the way it was supposed to so I gave the rear detent screw maybe half a turn in. That was enough to keep the action from sliding back down under its own weight. I know I can loctite that down but I'm holding off on that for now.

My concern now is that the action didn't seem to release from lock up when fired. I assumed I had over tightened the rear screw but upon removal of the stock I found the front slide was just sticking pretty badly. I removed the guide and front slide and just put a thin layer of moly down and worked it in. Its freed up a bit but still seems a bit "friction-y".My question here is whether or not there is a better way of going about this. Should it be polished? Oiled? Something else?

Thanks in advance!

Just got a power block and 720 plenum installed on my MK2. Went smooth no leaks after but my power is way down.

Seems to be making more power at 110 bar than it did at 160. This is the first impact I've played with that doesn't have the return spring in the plenum. I've even tried it with no return spring at all only pressure keeping the valve shut. Seems very timid.

New spring, 6 gram hammer weight, new hammer. Even tried an 8 gram hammer weight I have it's no better.

C1 is bottomed out around 5mm of reveal, I'm stumped. Seems to be an insanely short dwell.

Air Venturi Avenger .22 caliber at 22 yards

Please explain:

I zero the JSB Jumbo Heavies 18.13gr
Don't change a thing on the rifle
Then switch to JSB Diabolo Hades 15.89gr
No wind

Got that?

The point of impact doesn't go up or down. It goes about an inch to the right.
This makes absolutely no sense to me.

Thanks in advance,
Ponz

I’m the original owner if this fine air rifle I special ordered with walnut stock with cheek rest for right hand shooter. Along with custom super tune with nickel plated piston. The rifle is in very fine condition, with just a few untouched marks on the stock, with no scratches or lines. There’s just a slight bit of tarnish of the bluing on the barrel, but nothing so that would warrant re-bluing of the original patinas. I’ve decided to sell and would love to know what it’s worth. Very pleasant shooter, fast and accurate, with ability to hit aspirin pills at 25’ repeatedly. Thanks for your time.

If head temperature remains low - max of 54 Celsius - do I need to let my YH cool off? I’ve been running it 15 minutes at a time and purging moisture ever 5 minutes, and turning off for 5 minutes every 15 minutes - but is the 5 minute break really necessary if temps remain 50-55 degrees?

Been about 3 months since behind the trigger. Glad to see the HW’s hold zero pretty well. 30 and 50 yards as usual, German engineering at its finest. HW97 and HW98 in .20.

Well due to a change in NH hunting regulations for hunting small game, ie squirrels and rabbits, with an air rifle you need at a minimum 22 cal shooting a minimum of 12 fpe. I did have a 22 cal in the works but it delayed do to back order, 22 cal RTI Prophet Performance II. So one of the current herd needed to be changed, but I wanted to still have a backpackable gun and I only have one choice, my 177 Ranger XR aka Spector. So with a call to AOA they are trading me (crediting me) the 177 for a 22 cal version. I shipped the 177 ranger today to AOA and the 22 is paid for and coming this way in a couple of days. Spector I was is a very accurate gun and I hope she finds a good home.

Hello everyone,

I am curious if you are a bit relaxed when shooting at some practice targets, in other words not as serious as you would be shooting a competition target? I shoot a lot of practice targets to try and stay sharp and keep my skill level up to be able to shoot a good competition target. I know that I am not learning or improving my skills if I shoot any target without giving every shot 100% effort and concentration. I have been shooting a lot of 30-yard and 50-yard targets lately and decided to focus on shooting some 25-yard this morning. I set up my Pellet Test Target at 25-yards and shot at the center Ring first ( first photo ). After 5 scattered shots I realized that I was only going through the motion and not concentrating at all. I put my brain in gear and then placed 5-shots in the same hole on the next four Rings. Next I set up my MOA 25-Yard Target and shot 29 out of a possible 30. Anybody else out there that finds their self target shooting while sleep walking .
