I've been doing a little research regarding target rifles. I haven't ever competed and don't have any immediate plans but hopefully down the road I may give Silhouette and Field Target a try. So for now a target rifle will just be for my enjoyment shooting silhouettes and other various targets. One rifle that really has my attention is the Walther LG400 FT. I have a couple questions for those that own or have shot this rifle. Since the FT version doesn't come with sights I was wondering if it was possible to add aperture sights in the future. Can the parts be ordered from Walther to add those type of sights so that I can also use the rifle for ten meter style shooting? Along that same thought, I know that the LG400 has an adjustable hammer spring. How far can you reduce the power using just the hammer spring and NOT touching the regulator? Can you get the fpe down into the ten meter target range? Thanks for any help that you can send my way.

I fill from my tank so no breaks from the heat to refill my AR, the tank usually lasts a week then gets topped off inside. Even inside, I run the compressed air through a couple of moisture absorption filters to ensure no moisture makes it into the tank and then my AR. If I stopped shooting to refill my AR with the compressor, I’d probably get distracted and end up taking another nap.

Looks great.
I was able to shoot a good bit today. I would shoot awhile then duck into the shop or the house to cool off then go back out and shoot some more. I run the compressors in the a/c in the shop so filling guns also gives me a break from the heat. A least the temps are dropping some. We may be over the hump.

Ok guys.... here is one for you.

I have been adding more Theobens to the safe and I am wanting to add more spares to make sure I can keep things running. I took a look over at the RAW site and found the spares that I am wanting......BUT....... the shipping rates are NUTS! For 10 little bits and bobs,

Barrel location screw for Rapids × 2
Bottle "O" rings (pack of 5) × 1
Bolt Circlip × 5
Authentic RAW Rapid Air Worx PVC Patch × 1
RAW Pressure Guage × 1

and the shipping is around $30!! These are all little parts that should be able to fit into a padded envelope!

Is there another source for reliable parts that are not going to cost half the amount of the of the parts for shipping?

A few minutes with a utility knife. Junk into a target stand. Leave out in the weather no problem. Shot it and break it, easily replaced with another piece of junk.

Lower Alabama? I’m in Eight Mile. When it cools off enough to shoot in the afternoons (with a fan and a big umbrella), the showers and thunderstorms roll in. Made it out today to get an hour of practice in with the DRS Tactical .25. I cut my deck railing down for my built in bench.

Impulse Air IA-1350 Moderator is what Utah Airguns is pushing.
Looking at a .25 cal and wondering if this is actually any quieter in use than any of the others?

Thanks for the kind words...
Good chance of rain today and even though it's under shelter I don't like to expose my shooting equipment to all that moisture in the air. It's already bad enough that we have everyday high levels of humidity here in lower Alabama without adding rain.
I'd like to get my .25 Avenger with the Buck Rail Tactical kit out and do some shooting from the new bench but we'll have to see what the weather does.
Might just hang out in the climate controlled shop and tinker with the DLX Windows software for the Pro Chrono instead. I can open the shooting window and keep most of that moisture out.
BTW... I only run my compressors in the climate controlled shop and have yet to see any signs of moisture in any of my guns that I've checked
