Yeah 16 is more than enough… sometimes I just want to pick the particular hair on the squirrel I am going to take off, hence the one 35 power scope
have two x24 because I like to adjust parallax on x24 “ballpark” and then simply zoom back to x16 or something like that and call it good for +/- 15isj yards other than that all 4-16 or lower power…Upvote 0

Pan and Tilt mount

If you are a bench shooter, long distance and large volume, and need to re-aim on multiple rings... the ballheads just asking for trouble.
Much better with floating/levelling head (this one I put together from two heads into a single unit - pans and rotates)
And again much better with gimbal
And if you can figure a way to adjust the bubble, you are the King of BR
And now pay attention, how many segments you see on this tripod legs?
Only one segment, and it is filled with #9 lead shots.

300 bar bottle

If you’re wanting to leave your tank valve open and the fill hose connected you will need a regulator set at no more than 250 bar. That way you never exceed the guns max fill pressure. That method is referred to as “tethering”. Typically used when bench shooting, although paintballers will backpack a small CF tank for large volumes of air/shots.
Here is one available regulator, it’s quality but pricey.

REGMAN 2.0 – External PCP Airgun Regulator
If you are bench shooting big-bore air rifles at longer distances or shooting other airguns a regulator is a great piece of gear.

Trying to upload and sell an airgun

I thought this thread was a goner, but since you directly copied me,
the rules were pointed out by moderator!!! I also was in the process of pointing it out also when the forum popped up a notice up about other replies, I saw the mod's comment so I canceled my reply!
You jump on the dogpile with all capitols , indicating a loud yelling response that as a newby , i would see as 'unwelome mat' being set out by the NON owners of the forum
as to not needing a quiz to join, it is just a suggestion to help solve a problem, It is a problem or you would not have made your first comment about reading the rules. I see many many newbies make the same mistake over and over,,, it is not the rules I have a problem with and I never indicated that,,, it is the new guys can join without reading the rules, they just check the box that they did, so the new guy problem is real and their many posts are the proof in the pudding.
and you did jump on him, like a dog in a pile on, with
face to bootreview what you said to the new guy, he has not been back since ya all dog piled.

www.airgunnation.com when I first join we were able to post replies directly into the classified section, but were told not to in the rules, somewhere, i guess.
I got a mean note from a mod about it,, shortly there after, they fixed the forum, so you could not even post a reply in the classifieds.
they can change stuff here and they do time to time,,, always room for improvement.
your avator ,,, mayby we don't need to be so septic towards new members.
any way have nice day,,, spread it around, be a zippity do dah kind of attitude

HW/Weihrauch More "Easter egg" peeps...
- By beerthief

Informative as alwaysMore gadgeteering from the dark recesses of accumulated stuff...and my sketchy old memory.
Back in the day, Robert Law at Air Rifle Headquarters in WV commissioned Williams to make airgun-specific peep sights. These were similar to today's FP and GR series, but with fixed mounting rails mating with each brand's dovetail spacing. They are secured by setscrews on top, to snug the sight up tight against the grooves.
This is the "ARH 624," a sporting peep sight (Weihrauchs had wider 13mm grooves back then, so the ARH peeps are a rare alternative to HW's own match diopter of the day). Seen here on an old HW 30:

And here on a vintage HW 50 is the "ARH 834T," the target version of the same sight, adding finger-knob adjusters and a taller elevation arm.

Next, a challenge - a BSF S54 Match underlever. This eccentric design has: A) relatively low front sight; B) barrel set below the top of the receiver; and C) high rail for the rear sight...so any rear-mounted sight must adjust VERY low. BSF's match diopter works of course, but is fragile, adjusts coarsely, and doesn't take German eyepieces! ARH also had custom Williams sights for BSF barrel-cockers, but they won't go low enough for the S54. The one sight that WILL go low enough is the current FP-GR, but its tall elevation arm strikes the gun's wood (note: the FP-GR may work as-is for those versions of the S54 with narrower stocks).

The solution was a mix'n'match. The base is from a brand new FP-GR, with the shorter top from an "ARH 833T." A tidy setup, with the bonus of better precision than the OEM sight.
View attachment 532286
And a surprise bonus...the other half of each sight was not wasted. The 833T's rails are about 11mm, so its base plus the FP-GR's top gives a 1980-vintage HW 35E (with 22-inch barrel) a sight radius that's almost silly.

Here is the whole motley old crew with their new "eyes," ha.
