For 74 year old eyes? Benchrest, not hunting.

I'm considering AEA aka BinTac airguns with the 250cc aluminum tanks (e.g. S45 single tank version) but I'm concerned about running 4,500 PSI (website typo?) in a metal tank. As you know, carbon fiber is rated for 4,500 PSI but aluminum is limited to 3,000 PSI, generically.

Can some aluminum tanks compensate with greater wall thickness or alloys? I like the streamlined look & size of aluminum vs. CF bottles on those guns. Not seeking maximum shot capacity, just compactness and quicker fills.

Another aspect is that CF tanks are said to be more fragile in terms of outside pressure, e.g. the Titanic sub implosion (they say CF handles far more pressure inside). I want a tank with less risk if something hits it accidentally.

Thanks for any details.

hello everyone! I have a question for all you seasoned pcp vets out there. im new to this, ive been a springer guy for years but just recently got my first pcp air rifle. I have my akela tuned with the hammer spring already being cut down, right now im running the 10.34 hades pellets at 905 fps (great stability, accuracy and power) I noticed the other day when the temp dropped that the fps also drops, makes sense so far...but today, the temp is 49F, and I saw that if I shoot my gun rapidly the gun hardly pushes any air at all. like pellets stuck in the barrel type of thing. if I shoot slowly, it seems to be fine. has anyone else had this problem? I did some quick research and it seems that manufacturers say the cold won't have much impact but im curious to hear some real world experiences. I live in Michigan so it's winter for like 6 months a year these days, so not being able to shoot my pcp would not be ideal. any thoughts?

Hello all!! is anyone local to northwest Georgia that does any hunting or target shooting!?

I recently moved to Virginia. I want to get my son into squirrel and rabbit hunting but he hasn’t had much contact with actual guns so I looked into air rifle hunting. However when I look up Virginia regulations the only thing I can find is that it has to be over 35 cal for deer hunting. Any additional information regarding small game in Virginia would help.

Is it possible and how can it be done. Would just like to have a option to do so

and you are trying to see if they had any history? beside,s going down to the post office and check the Bullant board?thanks again Willy

I'm a newcomer here but need a bit of advise. I bought a Crosman 140 (I don't know what varient nor do I know how to tell) but it needs to be resealed. I cannto get the brass piece off of the pump rod I've cut down a washer and tried that to no avail. I've tried a screwdriver which was no benefit. I absolutely cannot get hat brass iece off and it is worth mentioning that based on plier marks on the aluminum parts of the air gun that it has been worked on before by someone who obviously didn't know what thtey were doing.
My only alternative at this point is to buy some Liquid Wrench and soak the end of the rod with the brass piece and see if that will loosen it or buy a replacement pump rod with a new pump cup installed. So my questions are:
(1) Anyone with otehr ideas to remove the brass peice holding on the pump cup and
(2) Is there a source where I might purchase a rebuilt 140 pump rod with the pump cup already installed?

Many thanks!

I don’t want to fill my yard with lead anymore.

Been using Baracuda Greens in my .25 for general rodent / pest control.

However, they just lack the OOMPH and terminal ballistics of a swaged lead slug.

Is there a .25 lead-free HUNTING ammo with a surplus of OOMPH?

Trouble shooting my mk2 ,
1) regulator is not regulating .I changed the reg and put a huma in also swapped out Al O rings on plenum still not regulated
2) all air dumps out of gun when bottle is removed .?
Any help would greatly appreciated

Hi,
I have fx m3 177 600mm with saber tactical TRS.
I want to buy liner Kit impact 177 700 mm tensioned.. the packages include stx heavy liner, cf sleeve, barrel, tensioned barrel holder and carbon shroud..
Now my question is will the carbon shroud fit in the TRS saber tactical? Hope anyone can help me with the answer before i buy it...

I recently bought a used diana 48 I love the gun but the front site is beat up and I use a scope. looking for suggestions on muzzle devices, full length shroud, or possible just removing the shroud(not sure how it is attached)?

Any idea, anyone?

I recently purchased a Gladius .25 Long and mounted a Optima 4-16x44E-SFT scope on medium height rings.
The comb interferes with my ability to get far enough to the right to view thru the scope. The only way I can view thru the scope is to remove the adjustable comb.

I’ve looked thru all the threads on the Gladius and see no posts related to this issue.

Has anyone else had this problem?
.

First I want to apologize for the crappy pictures. I have been trying different pellets in my new used Cricket 2 tac 60 it shoots amazing and its not to picky about what you are using. H&N 18 gr. Extremes are great even Crossman premiers shot well , I had enough JSB JUMBO MONSTER 25.39 gr. to try. The distance was 35 yards both groups were 14 shots. The scope is an Arken Elp4 6x24x50.
Thanks Wolfmangeg for selling me the fantastic rifle

Sorry for my ignorance but since I'm from Europe I have no easy way of checking this.

What is the thread/bolt size of these holes?



I plan to design/make some kind of monopod so I need to know which bolts I need to order.

Thank you!

Looking for some advise I have a p2.1 that's blowing air from the hole above hammer/probe where you can see into the action. It's a blast of air with every shot fired any ideas what it is ?

I need some suggestions.

The short of it is I have a break barrel .177, .25 and .30. I've been getting away from the break barrels and moving to PCP So I bought an AEA 9mm, FX dremline .30 and an Air Venturi .25. I want a .177 PCP but can't find anything I like other than the air venturi which is the same as my .25. I really don't want two guns the same even though they would be different cal.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

What is your "Go-to" rifle? The one just come to "first in your mind" in like survival situation, not second guessing/overthinking. And of course, no powder burner.
1st: RWS Diana 48 in .22 simple, affordable than AA, HW and no need for support equipment: pump, compressor, tank, scope, etc. Just rifle and some tins of pellets.

I have a situation that I can't figure out. I have an FX Impact m3 in .25 cal with a 700 mm barrel. I have installed a Huma slug power kit with the 6.9 gram hammer and 1st and 2nd stage Huma regulators.

1st reg...........170
2nd reg..........140
Macro.............1
Micro..............3
Valve..............4
FPS.................960
JSB KnockOut MK ll 33.49gr.

If I turn the Macro Wheel to a higher number the FPS goes down. A setting of 16 brings the FPS down to 835. The Micro Wheel does the same, higher settings give slower speeds. If I turn the valve to the 5th line FPS goes to 1050.

Is there something I'm not seeing. Why is the Macro and Micro adjustments seemingly working backwards?

Thanks, James

Can anyone enlighten me on this rifle. From what I’m led to believe it was/is a better plinker then its bigger sister. Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks

Both compact which shoots better?

So I bought a crossman f4 (Walmart version) and for some reason after about 50 rounds the barrel is starting to face upwards to where now you can see it in the scope. Unfortunately it almost makes it unshootable since at 15 yards it is off by a foot of not more. I took the gun apart looking for any kinds of adjustment screws or any loose screws with no avail. Any one ever heard of this or better yet have a remedy ?

Ive had my yongheng for around 5 years, it has an automatic shutoff feature, but a few weeks ago the auto shutoff stopped working. Fortunately the burst disc saved the compressor. I’ve confirmed the compressor overruns by setting it to 2000psi, then running the pump and manually shutting it off at 3000psi.

It has no respect for the shutoff pressure.

Clearly something needs to be replaced. Can anyone advise on how to fix this?
