Does your head spin?

Is your shooting going to be mainly in the back yard? How close are your neighbors? A .177 Cal is cheaper to shoot and uses less air per shot . It also doesn't carry far so if you are shooting at a squirrel and miss you don't have to worry about hitting someone or something and damaging them or it. You need to take into consideration how much hand pumping to shooting is acceptable.
^^^^^^This advice from DesertSilver could save you $$$$$, time, fustration, and neighborhood peace!^^^^^^​

IMO, If your backyard is in a more suburban area then a .177 is cheaper, quieter, and safer. A Gamo Urban in .177 would be ideal.

N/A  Newbie looking to buy used complete set up

I would find that an Umarex Gauntlet 2 get the SL22 You can generally find them on Amazon for ~400$, get a compressor (avoid a hand pump for frustration's sake), I got a ToAuto 4500psi for $180, get a couple of extra magazines on amazon for $12 each, but personally I'd go on eBay and look up QD Fox and get his aftermarket mags (they are better and tougher), then get a Gamo Combo Pack of 22 pellets (1000 count) for ~$18, Get a scope and rings, I'd recommend Discovery Opt 2-12x, look for a review on youtube and you can find a 10% discount code from their website.

Stressing on Rifle Cases, here's a soft case that actually fits

I've got a couple of Flambeau hard cases that I bought on sale for $30 each, a pretty decent price for a reasonable case, but nothing special. I would guess that a manufacturer could find a similar case for $20 or less. That seems like a very reasonable amount to spend on protecting an expensive and somewhat fragile product, especially when you consider that even cardboard boxes cost something.

I've had three guns sent to me now in decent cases. My sidewinder came in a tactical soft case, my GK1 came in a hard case with molded foam and my limited edition Umarex SAA came in a hard sided double pistol case, which IMO was the best of the bunch.

Recent purchases from AOA have had excellent disposable packaging, being double boxed and packed in eggshell foam that was cut to fit. My only complaint about it is that the foam padding seems too good to throw in the trash, but is just slightly too thin to use in a hard case.

FX  What causes regulator to be same pressure as the rest of the air tube?

I'm agreeing with Motorhead 100% on the Bar Oil. You want a lubricant that well, lubricates without dispersion or adverse effects to the materials of the 0-ring. A good synthetic, I just happen to have Mobile One laying around. I use it in my shops machines, high speed embroidery machines. My lubrication times have gone from every few hours to monthly. The Belleville stacks have a range, a minimum and a maximum, need more, use thicker, want less, use thinner. By having them uniform you spread the compression force equally between them all. It matters not one bit if you have one reversed at the top or the bottom of the stack if you have an odd number stack, it just needs to be fully seated. My thought on synthetic oil is, if it's good enough to keep a F1 car engine running, it's more than good enough for my air gun. Plus I have a very bad experience with silicon, may have been a one off but not taking any chances. I want things slippery, if it moves or slides, it get M1.

You might want to read and follow forum rules about selling in classifieds instead of trying to sell in a round about way on forum.
Makes sense. I did not go into classifieds yet, as I don't know what I'm selling. Was hoping to get a ball park or some additional guidance before I put it up for sale. My father-in-law gave me a spring Remington a couple years ago and I still have my 40 year old Crossman. I'm not interested in having all 3 and I rarely use any of them.

What did you order / receive airgun related today? Thread

Just so you know.. those guns that are spelled out are Chinese guns rebranded by Diana. I have the Two Fifty. I like the gun but it has a heavy trigger and a harsh shot cycle. I had to put a Hammers scope on it. They are NOT German made Diana guns.
Might want to question Midway on that.

What did you do airgun related today.

I haven’t shot them yet. I just got the mold last week and finally tried it out yesterday. I’m hoping they shoot well out of my standard Challenger 24”. After I did my preliminary sort, I ended up with 240 of them for an hours work. I’ll get them washed and lubed today. I’m thinking of using the same 10w silicone oil as I use on slugs. Anything else I should try instead?
sounds like you got a good plan....let us know how they perform (y)

At the very beginning of my post I wrote , Chiana that's what another member called them , so yes I knew they were from China which is fine they are German design that can't be taken away , and I whish they were real German made. Once long ago the USA sent some small drill bit's to China , so they could see how well made , and nice they were.
The company in China drilled holes in those drill bit's put there bit's inside , and sent them back.
