Cheap steel 3 or 4" gongs work (Ebay). Easy to figure out your own rack from which to hang them. 1/4 or 1/2" steel won't be penetrated by airguns.

All (3) of my traditional RAW stocks came with a too-tight fit. I just sanded the inletting down a bit until the fit was snug but not a bear to remove. I then sealed the inletting with Royal London Oil.

Hi Dunk,

I'd let the Sportsman fix it under warranty. You have 3 years and once you go into it your warranty will be invalidated. It shouldn't cost you a penny.

It is the inner rotating holes that are not aligning correctly (centering) with outside hole). So, dremeling the outside hole won't fix the problem as the pellet probe is hitting the edge of the inside rotating holes. Dremeling all of the inside holes would make them all ovals which would make all the pellets loosely flopping around in a large oval hole. Furthermore, there is only a very thin wall between the internal rotating holes so there is very little to work with. Am I not understanding you, or are you not understanding me? Please clarify if I am missing something.

Just pointing out that when you tried to post a picture it showed your file directory which had your name in the file path, just from a security standpoint something you want to avoid just remove your post that I replied to

I would love to see a simpler, more utilitarian replacement stock for my macavity MA2..

I love the rifle, but really don’t like the stock.

Something more similar to America air arms EVOL would be ideal with a rail along the bottom of the tube..

It would be essentially a pic rail along the bottom with a trigger gaurd and ar grip mount and then up to the ar stock mount..

I’ve worked on some stuff with Buck Rail. I will check with him to see if he is releasing a stock for it. I agree with you, the platform seems great, but the looks of it aren’t the best.

Got to talk to AOA today. Got a used Daisy 888 and used Crosman 2300S bought. With the 887 we are set the heck up. Well maybe we need one more pistol . Thanks for the heads up.

I've got an HW99s in .22 unmolested and it is sublimely accurate and easy shoot with very little recoil compared with my Hatsan Striker in .25. The Hatsan is a totally different beast and I haven't hunted with it or done any pest control yet, but for smiles it's the one!
My 99 is almost surgical and .22 is the perfect caliber for it. It's my go to for any job that's required.

We tried it on an actual M1A and it didn't fit on that.

This is the lenght and weight of .284 (7mm) from the noe 106 mold that has been drcked down

You're right about the skirts being thin, and I think that's why they work at .216, the air must be expanding the base to make contact. I'm gettting great speed, and accuracy, so I know they are spinning. My skirts, in my tins, are not damaged. This surprised me too, because I was expecting it. Lucky so far, I guess, and I hope it stays that way.

Lubrication helps

Many years ago I did that to the stock of my Daisy Safari. It was for point sooting only as the sights really did nothing.

Received the Omega today, and when I tried running it for the first time I had an issue. Called AoA up and they promptly connected me with their tech who troubleshot via text with me and got me going. This is precisely why I went with AoA, and I’m glad I did. They are a class act over there.

And yes, it looks to be a re-badged GX E5K1 but with AoA backing. Worth the price given my experience already.

varmint knocker 30 cal. slugs are back in stock

Beautiful gun, think that is what I will get grandson for first air rifle. Accurate and fun to shoot.

I ordered one in .25 in he larger model took forever to show up and came with .177-.22 end cap! Tried several emails to remedy the problem and no response. Need weeks now! Not very good customer service!

Uh oh. Not cool.

i think at this point, shooting iguanas is more of an environmental benefit for local airgun hobbyists in florida. i can’t say that i’m not envious. those are targets that can be eaten.

Are we still talking about iguanas here, orrrrr……?

Can be used as an affordable training tool or for plinking in the backyard. It is powered by a 12-gram CO2 cartridge to propel .177 caliber BBs up to 300 FPS. Boasting a 17-round capacity with correct ergonomics, it has a blowback action to help simulate recoil.

Be careful you don't pull a muscle

Max, hope it settles in for you. I went out this morning & popped a couple HOSPs & starlings each. Took a pigeon down ,but my cat buddy stole it before pictures! G-hogs are out also ,but too far out for airguns of mine.

Thank you. Yes, I think it will sort itself out when the weather gets warmer. Have fun shooting them pests! I am gearing up for the Spring shooting as well.
