Spray it down and find out, aea can leak from anywhere that holds pressure like any gun but the valve pin and tube orings were my issue on a smaller aea.

@Fays I think the Rattler .45 shoots .457 slugs. I suggest reading through the following thread. Post #4 in the link below needs a caliber correction.

edit: I double checked and I was wrong about the prjectile diameter. Tristan of Atlas Airguns specifically states to ship for .452-.454 ammo. My apologies. That info can be found at the 1:28 mark here

Thanks man! I'll check the video...

Just scheduled my 230V - 60 Hz single phase 2 prong 30 A circuit install using conduit ( which I Like ) for August 12th.

He asked me if anyone on AGN knows what the exact plug and receptacle configuration is for the ICON MCH-6. We looked everywhere and Coltri is Italian made, but we need to know which plug and receptacle is needed For the U.S. market.

I can ask Mitch also tomorrow, but if you have a visual also, that would be appreciated.

Thanks
Tom

Damn, really cool.

I’m currently deciding on getting either the Umarex G17 gen 5 MOS .177 pellet or the 4.5mm BB version.

I’ve been reading that you can’t field strip the pellet version - how did you get the slide off to replace the barrel? If the slide is removable then I’m definitely going to get this one and try and follow what you did. Really interested in modding it but I’m concerned that it might not be as easy as the BB version which has upgradable hop ups, barrels, etc.

Thanks!

Contact Donny @ DonnyFl....he helped design and he builds the Karma's I believe......

The only issue with the longer barrel is there's no shroud or anything that goes over the barrel, which in my opinion it looks ugly.

That was my first thought. It does look incomplete. I would have to fab up some form of shroud or it would bother me.

This is true but sometimes you like to hear the thoughts of someone who has actually preformed the tune.

For me it was not unlike archery. Working on visual triangulation, know your trajectory, use an anchor point like a bow. At least that was how I could hit birds as a kid with a wrist rocket.

Dog proof traps. Even if a cat does get in one it can be released unharmed. Might not be a happy camper though!

Apparently nobody has seen the racoon handcuff traps. If a cat were capable of getting it's arm in it, it wouldn't bother me.

I'd play to raccoons tendencies and capabilities vs other animals for traps.

Put the trap in a trashcan

With lower power airguns (under 30 fpe for a 22) I would use simple domed pellets. You may get an occasional pass through but it will not have a lot of velocity/energy. If you are worried about something behind your target what about what happens if you miss and the item gets the full energy? Best only to take shots in a safe direction and the minimal energy left in a pass through will not be an issue.

At this sort of energy level you also need to think about having enough penetration. You will on small game with a domed. Any projectile that expands much may not give you the penetration if the angle is not so great through the animal.

If you had 40 or 50 fpe in a 22, an expanding projectile would give you a bigger hole possibly dropping the animal a bit quicker and any energy in an existing projectile will be significantly less so it should not be a problem. But that is not what you get with the guns you mention.

Bought this about a year ago and never got around to modding it for one of my builds. I machined an adaptor to mount this folding stock on my 2289. Nice compact 10fpe build. I feel it's finally complete.

Me either at this point. I can also pull off headshots now.

I have a Diana 54 , think it needs a new spring , but i want to find out if i can convert it to a UK version <12 FPE . New spring probably transfer port work ?

I enjoy low powered highly accurate rifles and I bet the 54 would be one of them

Gen 1 or more modern? My Gen 1 mrod 25 needed a moderator to be quieter which also meant a bushing in the barrel band due to all the weight hanging out there.

It is an AEA reg. but I don't know enough about them to judge. I followed the guide too but mine would keep creeping after the "settling" dry-fires. All good now.

Click to expand...

Yeah and that’s why I think mine is just the reg settling because it doesn’t move unless I shoot it. Honestly now that I figured it out I like it even better. The barra tends to creep up so when tuning it I wouldn’t know the true reg setting for like a day after. It got much better after the reg butter though. I’m not affiliated with him in any way btw I just really really like that stuff. It’s hard to describe but everything about my 250z got better and “snappier” after I redid the whole gun with it.
