never thought about talking , i just shoot S 510 no fiddling necessary just have to fill with air every so often in the 6 years i have owned it .Nice shooting
I wonder why there isn’t more talk about Air Arms?
I haven’t seen much since their merger
The one that came on my 230V model was 5 feet long.Going to order mine in August. Have the Electrician coming week of 8/11 to install a 230V, 60Hz 2-prong 30 A circuit in the garage. Q. How long is the power cord?
Don’t want to use any extension cords.
Dog proof traps. Even if a cat does get in one it can be released unharmed. Might not be a happy camper though!Haven't seen? This is what I'm wondering. If I get the rest of them, will I be ok at least till the next breeding cycle?
They are so comfortable here right now. The first 2 were always here early, 10 pm. Now they're gone, the cam saw nothing till nearly 1:30 am when the next showed up. I can't be sure but I think there's a mother/cub and one other loner.
We really are terrified what these things could do to the chickens. We've heard a million horror stories. I have no love lost for these monsters. I'm hopeful to end it at least for a while.
Traps are mostly impossible because the cats will end up there. Also, what fun would that be![]()

How long is the power cord?You are quite welcome...I love my coltri compressor. I never worry about air when shooting. I have two tanks that I always keep topped off.
Yes i copied his drill and set screw fix , works great . But the new one i just bought is a tight fit to the rails .If you look around just right you may find mods and fixs on these zr mounts .. hector mendosa guy use to beef them up
Nice shootingI think this might be my best target card I have ever shot.
Ten shots at 50 yards from a bench. With 9 shout under 3/4 of an inch.

Break Barrel Spring Air Rifle Shock Reduction 20MOA Scope Mount Picatinny Rail | eBay
This mount is what you need to protect your scope. Compatible Rail Type: Picatinny. Mount Recoil Lug Material: Steel. Shock Reduction : Top rail of the scope mount is spring-loaded to absorb the shock and vibration from shooting your springer and will keep your scope from taking the beat.www.ebay.com
No, the reg can come out without affecting the plenum. However, the block that holds the reg is part of the plenum and valve body assembly. It has to be rotated to allow the reg to be pushed out...and it only rotates until it contacts the barrel. My reg barely clears.Do I have to that the plenum and valve body out too? Or can I just bust the reg out?
Looks like a carnival game where you shoot out the star. WINNER!I departed from my usual off hand shooting today and picked up my FWB 300 S and put her on the bags. She never disappointsView attachment 581416
Do I have to that the plenum and valve body out too? Or can I just bust the reg out?I degas, remove the bottle, remove the barrel shroud and aft shroud mount. The reg block has to be rotated ~30° (guessing) to allow the reg to clear the barrel. It may be easier to remove the barrel...it is that close to not clearing.
You do have to remove the barrel and lift the picatinny rail (don't fully unscrew the screws or remove it) to get the reg block, plenum and valve body out. The picatinny rail holds the two action halves together...and in alignment. It can be fiddly to reinstall if taken totally off.![]()
Ooof doesn’t sound terrible but I’m still not keen on it haha.I degas, remove the bottle, remove the barrel shroud and aft shroud mount. The reg block has to be rotated ~30° (guessing) to allow the reg to clear the barrel. It may be easier to remove the barrel...it is that close to not clearing.

I think the point is to have various viscosities to ensure performance over a range of temps.
What do I have to do to get to reg? I’m guessing you have to take the bottle off to get to it?
And recovery rate is very normal. The faster the better over course. Mostly I don’t want to fight the reg to know what my tune is.
is it a new one or older , i have both and the older (6 or 7 years) one can be wiggly . the rails were a bit thin . The new one i just got is very solidThis Diana Scope Mount is also a barrel droop compensator.
correct?
If so, then mounted in the above orientation it will help adjust for low POI
Please, please correct me quick if I am mistaken
Thanks
