Was filling my Hatsan 1.6l
Buddy tank and right around 3800-4000 psi I heard a weird aluminum tin can sound
I looked at my tank and noticed the carbon fiber separating
Shut the comp down and immediately opened the valve to dump the tank
This is what I found

First off i wanna thank everyone for all their helpful advice on assisting me to buy my first pcp gun. and of course the inner "bro" in me got me to ignore most of the guns with good track records, instead i opted for something that "looked cool" lol. hey i get performance is important but i also think getting a gun just cuz it looks cool isnt necessarily bad either. im sure i will buy plenty of these in the future so im not too worried about it.

Anyways the for my first gun i ended up going with a hatsan sortie in 25 cal. got it for a pretty good price and it came with a vortex crcossfire optic so i decided to "pull the trigger" lol. So for those who have used the sortie, what type of pellets should i be feeding this thing for maximum penetration? Can i shoot 25 cal slugs in this thing? any advice about this gun is welcomed. should be coming in like a week. thanks everyone!!

Dead on out to 90, at 100 yds I'm 8inches high any ideas? Thank you

Hello gentlemen.
I was wondering if there was a specific term for these type of buttstocks for MCAR and Edgun leishy 2 where the bottles are attached in reverse.



Also, are there any aftermarket buttstocks like these for other airgun models?

Thanks a lot and much appreciated in advance!

So I have This Scope and im looking for flip up covers. I measured (roughly) the diameter of the housing of the objective and eyepiece lenses. eye piece is 43mm obj is 55mm. I was looking at These covers and im not sure if they wouuld fit or not since the eyepiece measured around 43mm. but as i said those are rough measurements. I couldnt find my calipers and had to use a ruler and so those are rough measurements. im thinking maybe the eye piece is ACTUALLY 44mm and my measurement was off a bit. Does anyone have the Hammers 4-12x40 and know what size flip ups i need? TIA.

Hello I'm new to this forum . I'm trying to learn more about my R9 Beeman .20. From what I've seen this German made R9 appears to be somewhat rare? Any info and idea of its value would be great. Thank you.

Hello I'm a first time lurker , I recently went to a range where a Air rifle club was shooting and I really enjoyed NOT heraing the Bang..
Those guys were having so much fun.
I inquired about one of the guys guns that was there and he offered to sell me one of his . It is a Virgin Model 54 with no scope .
It has a maple stock and by the pictures looks pretty good he said it was around a 2008 -10
I would like to know what they are worth this one looks like a 8 out of a 10 maybe .
If thats not a good brand what would be a good starter?

I am about to undertake my first reseal job on a vintage Pioneer G6435 Chinese Air Pistol. I know the seals will be leather, but I do not know what size the seals may be. After I take it apart and take my measurements, is there a recommemded tool for punching out the various sizes I may need? I do not want to use scissors LOL.

HI everyone.
I am having an issue with my Chronograph reading too fast, I think? While I am waiting for a replacement I need some help. My .22 Avenger reg is set at 1700 psi with "0" hammer spring and I am reading 955 fps shooting 18.13gr. JSB heavies. This is my 2nd Avenger and from what I have experienced before at those settings, I should be seeing maybe 750fps-ish. Normally I would need to run 2200 to 2400 psi, and 2 to 4 turns in on the hammer spring to get 950fps.

If you have an Avenger, what should the following settings give in f.p.s. roughly?

JSB 18.13's, 1800 reg, 2 turns in h.s.

JSB 15.89 Hades 1600 reg, 0 turns in h.s.

H&N Cuda s 2400reg, 3 turns in h.s.

Thanks for your help!

.22 wildcat mk3 BT comes with superior standard. .

Can that handle and stabilize 21-25gr slugs fine as is? All the ads I see say "for heavy slugs" on the "heavy" liner. Is all that is different the twist? Or is it left unchoked?

One thought I can't get out of my head. Every single Lothar Walther or CZ Barrel is 1 :17.7 give or take. How can 1:24 which doesn't bite into the projectile as much sufficiently stabilize traditional slugs?

Ok, I found one of these rifles. It looks to be in good shape. Holding air and oil in little window. I can buy these rifle in 25cal plus an 177cal pcp. for $650. I want to resale these rifles or trade to get something I want. Can anyone tell me what the conquest currently sell for? I only see two on web for sale. But it didn’t have dates on post so don’t know if they were current.(1,700-2,500) should buy?

I have a black bunker bm8. Anyone have a suggestion on what scope or red dot to put on it. Have a BSA 3-9 and it seams to wonder some when trying to group different pellets.

Anyone know the factory hammer spring setting ? Also how much adjustment is there in turns ? I have found past 2 turns will not let bolt go far enough back to set the hammer.

After a shot I went to reload and arrow would not go on the cylinder so I looked down the cylinder and saw this poking out from the bottom of gold piece that screws on the end of the cylinder/shaft that you slide the arrow on. I took the gold piece off and removed the white piece (pictured) and it slides on fine. The shots after removing this piece were hitting allot lower. I'm not sure what this piece is and if it is part of the gun or arrow itself so can someone please let me know?

Does BC change based on speed of bullet or is it constant regardless of speed?

I am in need of a sub-$200 dollar springer rated scope for my RWS Diana Model 48/52. I believe this is considered a magnum air rifle, so I want something that can handle its heavy recoil. I have heard good things about Hawke and Hammers scopes, but want a second opinion before proceeding with a purchase. Right now, my only criteria is $200 or less.

Howdy folks, Steven from Texas here. I have a squirrel and opossum problem. The squirrels are helping themselves to my pecan tree. The opossums are bullying my cat for his food. Originally there was just the one opossum, but last night I saw 3! They’re getting bold now.

Looking for an air rifle that I can can proudly call Ol’ Reliable. I’m also looking for quiet firing, since I will have to do night-time firing. I live my grandparents, and my grandma is a light sleeper. So silence is a big plus. It also needs to be powerful enough for quick and humane dispatching.

The distance I need to cover is from 20-45 yards. Again, I’m also looking for discretion and a low sound profile. I have started to look into forums and gather as much information I can. I’m thinking of sticking with .22 but is that overcompensating with the 20-25 yard distance?

I’m looking at PCPs because of the lack in kickback, and from what I’ve seen they fire more quietly. I wanted to ask the experienced and educated. Thanks y’all!

DO ANYBODY KNOW WHY WHEN I PUT MY CO2 CATRIDGE IN MY MK45 AND TIGHTEN IT UP ALL THE GAS COME OUT..THEY BRAND NEW CO2'S..N I REALLY NEVER USE THE GUN FOR IT TO BE DAMAGED IN ANYKIND OF WAY THE SEAL STILL LOOK GOOD...PLEASE HELP...EMAIL ME PERSONALLY AT [email protected].....I REALLY APPRECIATE ANY FEED BACK..HAVE A GREAT DAY...

My model c pumps and shoots fine. The problem is the pump arm no longer stays shut. It hangs down and doesn't snap shut like it used to.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks

hello everyone
so i bought the FX IMPACT M4 while still having the M3 .

i am shooting the JSB EXACT 33.95 grains and HN 36 grains slug
so i setup my new M4 with the same M3 settings
what i noticed is M4 cant reach same FPS as M3 with same settings

although reg on both 136 psi
hammer macro is maxed out to 5
valve is in the 4th line

shooting HN 36 grains
fx impact m3 with hammer wheel on 14 gives me 980

while in the M4 same settings gives me 900

so there is almost 80 fps difference between

anyone noticed power deferential between both?

Are there any PA guys or gals on here that do not have a bigger compressor for the very large CF bottles, 75cuft
If so, where can one get it filled, I am an hour of Harrisburg. Thanks in advance!

I recently started having the same problem with two of my Fx rifles. I have an Fx royal 400 and a Fx dream tac compact, they both hold air without any leaks, but after every shot I hear a small rush of air escaping from them. How do I fix this problem?

I'm very interesting in getting a Benjamin Marauder.
Was wondering whats the difference between the Marauder 32fplbs and the field & target 22ftlbs?

On the Dreamline, there's a grub screw on side opposite the power adjuster. It fits into a slot on the power adjuster assembly and prevents unwanted movement. I'm talking about the small screw on the bottom of this picture:



Should I be screwing this thing in until it bites into the power adjuster or back it off a bit? I'm just worried the grub screw will back out over time. Maybe some Loctite 222?

Thanks.
