Tuning  Umarex M1A1 Thompson Repair

Yes, I thought about that also. The telescoping black plastic tubes got my attention. So I decided to compress the black tubes which exposed the sear in the gun after I removed one screw holding the tap cover, it slid forward after I pulled the trigger. After looking at it I started to think about where id the return spring? It must be in the larger tube. The Large tube is stationary, so I compressed the small tube and got a good look at the bolt release. There is a small round peg, probably just a stop, I was thinking how about a smaller spring in the small black tube as an additional buffer?
I do not know without thinking about it some more. What do you think?

I don’t think adding a spring will do it. I’d fish around to find what stops the bolt’s rearward travel and add a soft plastic stop. The bolt spring should push it forward and the Co2 should push it back, but what limits that rearward travel? Now, it’s possible that a heavier bolt might not travel back far enough to hit the frame. That would be ideal … if the Co2 has enough kick to reload but not enough to ram the bolt against the frame.

Air Arm S510 targeting rats again

Max , great video as always. I went to the barn this past Saturday & hung out throughout 3 separate T -Storms . Not figuring on much activity, 'cause I've taken 8-10 over the last month. I took two magazines (12 shots ea.) with me into the barn. Rats were spotted earlier in the day by the farmhand so I figured 24 shots would be plenty. As soon as I turned on the IR light I spotted eyes everywhere ! Long story short ,I missed a few but came away with 10 rats plus a couple mice in the bucket with several rats not retrieved because of extra messy conditions in the holding area.No time for pics as the rain slowed enough to toss the bucketful over into the pasture for the"cleanup crew" & get out of there just in time for the next storm dump ! I was using my Kral NP03 ,w/ a bottle/reg conversion .I emptied both mags ! It's tossing Hades 15.89gr.s at ~ 650fp.s at the current setting. My ranges are close to what you were just into. Also, several rats were just a bit larger than mice , so the next generation was coming out & about on their own.
Nicely done! Always bring enough ammo as you never know when you will need the extra shots. Good job tagging them rodents. I am hoping the rats will repopulate quickly so I can come back out to feed them some tiny .177 cal lead, lol.

I will go to the other farm for some outdoor and much larger rats action with my FX Impact MK2 or with my HW100T. Cheers.

Other  Walther 210

These last 2 orders I received are probably were nerve racking to say the least. Had 3 rifles 6 months to the day get delivered. And this gun was shipped in June. Two weeks ago Purolator called and told me they had no idea where it was. They would refund the sender. Next thing I know I get an e-mail to pick up your package. Which I did today. 45 min. drive away.
I bought 3 rifles from this guy. All the same case and locations. First bill was $55. Second time they wanted $171. I asked if they were for real. Ended up paying $91. I was pissed. This time, it took almost 5 weeks, (pony express would be faster) $71. Same case and locations. Lesson learned.
Any who this is what I was in a panic for. Even more so than the other 3 rifles. Those I can reorder, this I can’t.
Walther LG 210. I was told it was a j model, don’t see it.
I don’t remember hearing much about this rifle, but it’s a Walther.

Other  Market value of Aeron B96 CO2 match pistol?

a screw what does it tell us
when the edges are rolled over and it is scratch it tell me the person with the screwdriver had the wrong size and didn't care but that screw doesn't belong there as the pictures i posted shows
i will state i am a damaged screw snob, i can't stand to see them and if i have one they get replaced or as least repaired
rusty screws get me going too, they are the window of how the gun was treated

RAW Rapid  LRT stock or chassis?

I have a .25 LRT in an MPA chassis like @woogie_man pictured above and a .30 LRT in a black laminate stock. I mistakenly sold my original R.A.W. chassis and missed it so just bought one from another AGN member. I like all of them - just depends on what you are comfortable with and what you are doing - field shooting, benchrest, etc. Bottom line is that the HM1000X LRT action is great!. The barrels are great! And it's an air rifle I don't have to constantly work on, replace o-rings, tune, fine tune or anything else that takes away from shooting time and pleasure. Oh yeah - also accurate as hell!

Vortex Venom 3-15.. hmm

I purchased the MOA version to try out based on Joe's review ( Cyclops) some time back..
I had read some people having issues with the 5-25 with maybe not the greatest glass..
Well I can say for sure that the 3-15 x 44 that I got is an extremely clear picture all the way to 15 with very good ranging and focus that isn't too finicky.
Yeah the turrets a little mushy compared to others, but the crystal clear image more than makes up for it..
I have never had a Vortex but had to try.. Glad I did.
Any idea where the venom line stands as compared to Razor, Viper, Diamondback, Crossfire?

HW/Weihrauch  Ok Weihrauch Airgunsmiths, I need some advice... HW35 Barrel Latch Worn

...so what? He has to tap the barrel down as on any other Weihrauch break barrel. The barrel does not flop down by itself?...
Chuck's right. I'd like the rifle to perform as it should. I shoot from a bag for the most part. If I plop the rifle down on the bag a little too hard, the barrel will break open slightly. I'd prefer that the latch worked properly. It's still very accurate, but it's a piece of mind sorta thing.

HW/Weihrauch  Ok Weihrauch Airgunsmiths, I need some advice... HW35 Barrel Latch Worn

Chambers….but maybe not for 1770.
Of course the new compression tube would cost more than the rifle is worth.
Ooops.... That would be an early model indeed. 🤣 I think that I've got a way to repair it. I was just hoping that someone had come up with an easier way.

SC Johnson Paste Wax Discontinued!

Just found out Johnson Paste wax that I have used on the metal and wood of my guns for years has been discontinued. Such a great product stopped with no reason to the public. Not advertised for guns but one of the best gun finish protectants on there. Was sold in a big can at about $6 in stores. Now leftover cans going for $100 on EvilBay! WTF!!!o_O
Been discontinued for years..........:confused:
I have a can of McGuires Gold Class Carnuba and Trewax. I use the Trewax on the inside of my barrel. Seems to work very well.
