We still have a few slots open for the GP next weekend. This match will be great preparation for those attending the Pyramyd Air Cup and the Nationals. In addition, we will have a pistol match and a springer match on Friday. There will be two challenging 60 shot courses on Saturday and Sunday that determine GP placement for the match. CCGC is very generous in their support for our field target program by providing a dedicated field target range with 160 targets. Registration info for the GP can be found here. See you next week.

smoothly run event from start to finish.
I’ll definitely be back.


WELL DONE !

It's a probe-less tube. I may need to snatch one on ebay next time I see it and give it a whirl on my dt

The most fun you can have with your PCP precision airgun! ​

Thinking about buying a second plastic one and doing some major milling of the unwanted plastic plus a nice paint job, will be an interesting project for a few hundred bucks, my guess I can shave a few hundred grams. The plastic one weighs 750g plenty of room for some carving

I don't have the slugs to measure so... Thank you!

There are a couple of Epoch/Evo threads with fairly comprehensive details you should also try the Skout website and look up spool valves as used on paintball guns for 20 odd years, and you will get an idea of how it all works.

Cavedweller swears his 2025 model FFP Athlon ETR 3-18 has a thicker reticle.

And so does the FFP Athlon G3 2.5-15 as well as the Helos G2 2-12.

Unless you have DFP you have to accept the downsides of either FFP or SFP. I prefer SFP for paper targets/BR, and FFP for most everything thing else.
Along with a recent appreciation for DFP applied to general plinking and hunting having a thicker reticle.

I would keep it stock and try something lighter like the Nielsen 34.9g slugs.

This is My new 22 cal Seneca Aspen picked up on line bid auction for 100$. Once I lubed and pumped my adapter blew off and I had to lube the O rings and eventually the next leak was the tube extension check valve. Multiple attempts of lubing and pushing the tip around the the gasket, bearing and spring it sealed up. Oh ya so was running thru the guys city 2 weeks after I won the auction in vacation so I didn't have to pay shipping anyways.... 10 attempts (24 hrs) at lubing, pumping, dry firing/degassing lube and air and its holding at 3000 psi for 2 hrs. I'm gonna Chrono it in the next few days. It's shooting beautifully but I need a different mount set up as this is just rigged to test fire. I'll post Chrono on several pellets and a good slug. I'm PUMPED to pump this test up!

I cut 2 dovetail x picatiny adapters down to size until some nice rings i ordered come. It's not bad. The scope is a cheap, simpleMidTen 6-24x50 AO Rifle Scope for... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D6VQY2MJ?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share it's well rated and simple but it's a clean view. So total expense is 200$!!!, 20$ pawn shop case, 50$ scope, 30$ in mounts. Got super lucky, now I'll post some Chrono and check out accuracy. I've heard good things, time to see

the question is who designed these pistols the piece inside are not cheap they are weel made but there idea of getting the trigger to work is just plain stupid and for the color well that is another can of worms
the rear sights could have been good but they are not
so you have a horrible trigger, bad sights and a color that should be a on a child plastic play gun
you have to wonder is this the best Umarex can do TODAY build junk
now i might buy one of these to see what makes it work and to offer advice to improve it or save 50 bucks and tell people to just run away
i one video it was shooting lights out at 10m to bad

I have the King .22 - 600 mm with a Sabell chassis, honestly it is quite heavy to hold in your hand and even more so if we are walking while hunting. I installed the chassis because the weapon would be destined for exclusive use in BR and for that it is fine.

Usually people want to have a bird feeder that is squirrel proof. Sometimes the reverse is needed. A squirrel feeder that is bird proof. I was nice and gave them a little ledge to rest their feet on while they eat their final meal. A .25 JSB King at 930 fps blew right through both lungs sending the squirrel flying through the air, DRT!

Bore a hole about 2” from bottom and fasten a single acting pneumatic actuator. When Mr Squirrel sticks his head in, thump him. Similar to the cow thumper used in “No Country for Old Men. “

I picked up a p70 with a custom stock. I also came with the original FWB Running boar stock. Why does it not have the lower bolt hole that comes up from the bottom into the action? Is that normal or is this thing a 2nd? The action has the whole just not the stock.

Also there is no accessories rail on the bottom.

Well, I guess you can see from my posts that I’m playing with the impact a little these days…

For whatever reason I noticed a clicking sound today when cocking and wanted to check it out. I guess it was always there and I just never noticed. Anyway, looked at the trigger and. Realized that the sear is being pushed up with a click of sorts very early in the movement of the cocking arm.

I then figured that the hammer seems to be riding on the rear part of the sear basically along the entire length of the hammer (almost). Made two videos trying to capture the “click” lifting the sear and trying to show how the sear moves and wobbles up and down if you pull the hammer back while trigger is pulled (sorry for quality… holding phone with one hand and handling trigger/cocking arm with the other…).

I then took the sear out just to check and the part that’s pushing the sear up so that it catches the hammer (the part the hammer seems to be riding on along its length) was pretty beaten up, see pic. Polished the sear up to mirror while I had it out but also checked the schematics and it seems they changed a part of the trigger, part 3 on the trigger drawing (well, at least the one I have is not the one on the exploded view…). I then went to see what videos are out there and the part I have is the same in Ernest’s video. Sub12 has a video on the trigger as well and he has the one that’s on the drawings… which has a bump holding the sear up, I’m guessing to avoid the wobble and the hammer riding on back part of the sear?! Obviously I’m now wondering To what extent this affects consistency… Anyone knows anything about that?

Just for the record, the trigger on the m4 is, imho, stellar. One of the best aspects of the gun for me. Will also call UA just to see whether they ah e any insights (and to get the part of course)…

No this is not normal after one shot from a 310 bar fill. Reading this I was thinking it’s a valve issue as well. I’m interested in what you identify as the problem. How far is your power adjustment screw cranked up? What sort of velocity are you getting at your power current setting?

Click to expand...

Screw was at 2 turns, maybe a tiny bit more. I was getting in the mid/high 800s for fps. It's still holding air today. Never leaked again after I refilled it. With 40gr slugs I was making about 45fpe. The shorty i haven't chronod after I put the new trigger on, I think it was about 750 fps last I checked.

Hammer must be resting on the valve with a lot of force for this to happen. No idea if this is by design or not.

You nailed it BoG!

I need a air pistol we just had a breaking over here at my house they actually came in the house and bear sprayed me. And tried to take control of the house the neighbor ran over thank God or who knows what would have happened.

Really nice looking airgun

Pretty much any of them will beat a hand pump. it really depends on what volume you filling and how often.
