I'm friends w/ a person w/ a business that cleans out estates. These folks had already moved and only wanted a clean out and cleaning. This was going to the dumpster, believe it or not. Guy asked about it after and said we should have also taken its compressor. At the time I had no idea what I was looking at or that one was required. I bought a floor hand pump so I could try it out. Seems totally functional and it is legit. Attached picture of other related mounting hardware,etc, All included. I can thro in the floor pump if needed.

Other Wasn’t looking for another but…….

Like the title states, I really wasn’t looking for another rifle but this strange one came up and I jumped on it. This time another UK made rifle only a Webley. A very good condition Webley Osprey supertarget. This is my first Webley and my first tap loader. Strange setup indeed .The previous owner ( member here ) had it posted on the CAF with a few minor issues like the trigger wasn’t working but the price was right.
I received the rifle and was able to get the trigger back together and working. I shot a few pellets with a red dot mounted at 10 yards ( indoor range) single hole. Didn’t put it over the chrony as I knew I was going to get into the internal workings to freshen it up anyway. It was shipped with an Anschutz blade sight and a globe front sight. I promptly scoured the internet and found an Anshutz 6705 rear and new glove front sight set that are correct for the rifle. I am however missing the Webley adapter that sold with this rifle when new from 3/8 dovetail to 11mm. I’m still looking for a solution for that one.
Anyone who’s ever held one of these rifle can attest to how muzzle heavy it is with the 3/4” OD barrel in 19 3/4” long. What else could I do but chop the barrel. I removed 6 1/2” , took the OD down at the muzzle end to refit the globe sight block. But I ran out of my supply of blueing solution. I’m pretty fond of the Brownell’s Oxphoblue . If you take your time with it I find the final blueing turns out nice and black compared to other off the shelf products I’ve used. The seller also sent me an HW seal which I’m still on the fence if I’ll install it or not. We’ll see once I tear into the internals. That’s three springers over the last two months. I swear this is the last one . Hahahhahhaha

Big thanks to Rich Briscoe of BARS Slugs 
Not all slug makers are the same—and Rich proves it. While many big-name brands chase one-size-fits-all designs, Rich takes a different path: building slugs that actually fit the shooter’s needs. No generic molds, no mass-market shortcuts—just precision, consistency, and a real understanding of what works in the field.
I’ve moved away from buying what others want to sell. Now I run what’s built for my setup, my goals, and my standards. That’s what Rich delivers—and it makes all the difference.
Thanks again, Rich. You’re raising the bar for what airgun ammo should be.

Pistols don’t count!!!A .30 caliber is going to require A LOT of air. How are you going to fill it? You are going to need a tank and a compressor. Will have to budget accordingly.
I agree completely. Life is too short to have only one PCP. I settled on five. And a couple of pistols but they don't count. Really, it's fine. Well I might need one or two more now that I think about it.
Remember that. It got me out of trouble the first time I said that to my wife.
Problem was that I was dumb enough to use it a second time…

Started working on some custom foam for my Karma EQ hardcase. The case comes with cut foam, but I needs to start from scratch in order to make it work with my Zulus and also make a spot for my Moderator, magazines, etc. so here is my first attempt, not too bad! At some point after I get it all dialed in, I will use some spray adhesive to make it more permanent.

Hi marflow very nice build. What velocity and number of shots do you get with the 13" barrel? My chaser only has 8.2 inch barrel I get about 465fps with about 4 mags. But still loud with wasted gas. I just received a brand new 19 chaser barrel to cut down into a carbine length around 12" but have not settled on length yet. I also got a right hand unmarked stormrider style breech to finish its rifle mode.
