Karma  Karma EQ in pieces..

Addendum:

I woke up this morning and realized that the valve body seating issue isn't a "bug", it is a feature.

The valve body has spanner holes around its periphery because it is an adjustment. This is the "power wheel" of the EQ. Moving the valve body aft to "fully seated" = max power...and max air usage (meaning fewer shots per charge). Moving the valve body forward (using the spanners holes to turn the body in its threads) reduces how far the valve opens, regulating the volume of air available to the transfer port.

Now we have the full tuning suite:

1. Cylinder pressure
2. Regulator press
3. Power valve
4. Transfer port
5. Hammer Spring

You got it now you have a completely fully adjustable accurate and hopefully reliable rifle. I’m happy with mine, but I just haven’t had the time to go to a range big enough to test it at long distances. Thank you for all your contributions.

Vevor water cooled, looks like a GX CS4 clone...

No internal filter
No grease pot
Cs4-i has an internal inverter
No over temp safety shut off (at least not mentioned) vs having to watch a temp gauge.
I would imagine there are other significant differences as well.

Maybe someone will buy one and pop the cover off...

Yeah, I was hoping someone already had...

Anyone else in your house as into AG as you?

My wife isn't the least bit interested, except in what the hobby does to the bank account.

I might pester my daughter about it again, but I don't think she's interested. Her long-term boyfriend doesn't seem to be interested.

I have two brothers in town, but they don't care either. They both have pb's that gather dust. Not big shooting fans.

I have a nephew that also lives in town, I might nag him and my brother again. If I can get my brother interested, that'd be a big win. Thinking of the look on his wife's face when he starts spending $$$ on airguns warms the cockles of my heart.

GX-E-5K2 PCP Air Compressor, 5800psi

Just adding my two cents as a GX E-5K2 owner. It's quiet, fast, and drama-free so far. I highly recommend it. Also, buy the GX filter at the same time, they're a great pair.

I have the 5K2 and it's an awesome compressor I also have the GX filter and feel the same way.

Need help for a PCP

Vana2
Hear you about the arthritis... it's what makes us grumpy old guys grumpy. ☹️

Have the S510, it's a very pretty PCP but heavy, limited shot-count and only only rudimentary adjustability. Accuracy is good. I found the ergonomics of the S510 walnut stock to be incompatible and had to exchange it for and adjustable laminated stock. I suggest that you handle the S510 before committing to one.

Check out the FX Crown. I have a .22/500mm MK2 and it's my go-to all around favorite PCP out of the dozen or so PCPs that I have. The Crown is one of my lighter PCPs (only my Maximus and DRS are lighter), shot-count is good as are the ergonomics and performance. It's fully adjustable (transfer port, hammer spring and regulator) as well. It fills to 250 bar maximum, my regulator is set to 130 bar so anything over that is fine.

Good luck in your search!

Cheers!

I was wondering,are the100yd. groups getting better

because of the better choices in slugs and heavier pellets? Asking because there a lot more accurate PCP,yet many of those PCP have been around for years.
Click to expand...
Yes.

Something learned is that pellets don't need a fast twist barrel to shoot well and too fast a twist can make the pellet spiral at faster fps. Plus there are higher BC pellets nowadays. The 30 cal 50gr AEA seems like a top contender with IIRC a .06 G1 BC.

Then slugs with faster twists like the LW 15.75 twist in my Skout EVO or the 16 twist in my Thomas HPX, both 22 cal. These barrels will stabilize longer and higher BC slugs.

Many have had great success at velocities of sub 1000 fps with slugs which is achievable with some older guns.

I thinking this,I really do not want to buy another air gun,

boscoebrea
the ones I have are enough,but then the want or inch comes,I think I will just customize the ones I have,after all I keeping them for me.I have bought custom stocks for some.Making mine mine gives me more personal satisfaction.I been lucky in the past because I was able to buy someones personal air guns that they spent a lot of money on making them theirs; they had good taste,plus they were lefty,custom beautiful stocks......it is a very long wait for something like that to show up.
Reminds of the custum rims and tires on cars,the difference is on a a "gun" the fit is most important.Just feels right.
I am bubbling,anyone else feel that it may be better to customize your air gun for you rather than to buy another air gun?:unsure:

Need help for a PCP

Teep said:
I'm looking for some help. Last year I got tired of messing with the air tanks and PCP's in general (I only had an AirForce Talon at the time and did not like leaving an air tank inside a hot car) and made the decision to go back to spring piston airguns. I had an R7 and HW97kand then purchased and R9. In June things went south, I spent a week helping my son move, a lot of heavy lifting and pulling dollies up and down slopes with heavy loads. I'm 79 and this brought arthritis in my hands to the point I can no longer cock the R9 or HW97k without pain. This leaves me with only the R7 to shoot.


I really want a more powerful air rifle than the R7 and that means that I will once again need to go to a PCP rifle plus I want to keep it light as the weight of the HW97k with a scope does cause pain in my hands just to carry it. I like to do a lot of shooting in places away from the house so shot count is important. I would like to stay away from rifles that require over 250bar as I plan on getting a small compressor and not stressing it. I keep looking at a Daystate Huntsman and the AirArms S510 but I would really like a larger shot count and easier adjust-ability. The other choices are an FX Wildcat or Maverick. Before purchasing one of the FX 's I really need to get hold of one to see how they will handle; central Missouri is a dry area for airguns. I do like the adjust-ability of the FX guns as I am really looking at .177 and running around 15 to 18 fpe and this will be for birds, squirrel, and rabbits. The ability to quickly turn the FX's down with the power wheel for shooting starlings and sparrows in barns is also a consideration plus they will be easier to handle inside barns.

If you don't need a repeater, look at an old Benjamin discovery. I'm running one in 177 at 16 fpe for home birds and I can make 60 yard bird shots all day if not head shots. Meanwhile I have a 75 fpe impact with a ballistics solving optic and range finder on it and a 43 fpe dreamline that aren't being used for this. It's single shot, it may require a spring and an hdd to do it, but im getting 25 shots on a fill and it's so precise with good glass I don't need to use my repeaters. I can't believe I slept on this gun when it was being made and got a 25mrod instead that I don't use for anything.

Something to consider might be the Crosman 3622 (Discovery replacement). With a scope, air and a .22 pellet in the steel breech the rifle weighs maybe five pounds. The rifle only fills to 2000 psi and gets about 20 shots per fill. It does have a little bark to it but that can be addressed easily.

I really like mine. Easy to use, easy to fill, easy to shoot and easy to carry. Airgun Revisions has them in stock and can be purchased with a steel breech for scope duty.

Crosman 3622 with steel breech

The Crosman 3622 PCP unleashes .22 cal fury at a down-to-earth price. Expect earth-shattering 900 FPS to pulverize cans, varmints, or bullseyes at 50 yards. This beast boasts pinpoint accuracy for PCP power without the PCP price gouging. Forget expensive refills, the hand-pump friendly 2000 PSI...
