That particular fill was from below reg pressure. Hmm I’ll have to pay more attention to if it does it if I top off before I hit reg pressure

I'm in Cincinnati Ohio.

So...they were sold as functional, but you caught 4 out of 5 losers.

I wouldn't say the guns I won at auction were "losers." They simply didn't work. Externally they were in good to great shape, plus they're rare, hard-to-find items that I was fortunate enough to obtain at a fairly good price.

Not sure why you're going out of your way to make it seem like buying Doc Beemans collection pieces was a bad move. Do you have a grudge against him??

I think you're reading waaaay too much into what I wrote. Regardless, I apologize if contradicting you caused any offense.

Interesting design. It's venting into the shroud presumably to provide a little sound suppression. The P35 has a much different and even larger aluminum piece screwed to the end of the barrel but it is short of the end cap by several inches to allow space for baffles.

I don't think we can discuss it here but if you pm me I can refer you to guys on GTA who might be able to help.

I still have another - The best example I have from Mike that is squirreled away somewhere. Will post when it is unearthed. Haven't seen it in at least 10 years.

For all our jokes about Jim, he really works hard out there. Between complaining about not having enough targets and then complaining about having to Cock his rifle for too many targets you can tell he's really enjoying himself.

Hi! Thanks for sharing your detailed experience with our adapters and gauges.

Regarding the stability of the side adapters, they tend to secure more tightly above 50 bar. This is by design, as we primarily intended them for use on airgun cylinders and regulators, where pressures usually stay well above 50 bar during normal operation. However, we do acknowledge that with the Epoch's low-pressure gauge (under 50 bar), the situation is different, and we appreciate you pointing out the challenges you faced.

About using 1/8 BSPP threads in place of 1/8 NPT, especially in high-pressure applications, there are significant risks involved, including gas leakage, which can lead to safety issues. We always recommend using the correct, compatible thread types for each specific setup to ensure both safety and optimal performance.

Your suggestion about the adapters being adjustable to different positions is also noted. I've passed it on to our product development team for further consideration. If you have any other ideas or run into more issues, please don't hesitate to let us know. We're committed to improving our products based on user experiences like yours! THX!

Hi, I was not advocating others using the gauges on the wrong thread but in my case I have in the past used similar threads when no direct adapter or in this case not ideal before, and because the apertures/passages used in the gauges are small the overall force generated is much reduced, the actual internal threads are not tapered and the use of a decent bottom seal like the ones supplied by yourselves coupled with a decent amount of theads and the use of a decent sealer I am happy with the resulting seal, but this i purely for my use only.

But I completely understand you disclaimer and agree, Despite the main gauges when using the angled adapters being under bottle pressure IE up to 4,000psi I still found them to be rather easy to move which as I mentioned above is due to the actual force being reduced due to size which is why I mentioned this to outgun and while my attempts at securing them I was still not happy with the amount that the gauges stuck out which is why they now reside in the STD threads with no adapter, I have heard that you are thinking of producing your gauges with a range of different threads on the gauges themselves is this correct if so it would make fitting to different guns much easier.

However, your gauges are a great asset to PCPs and much more accurate than the average fitted gauge.

I stumbled over an old, but very nice Steyr Match LP some years ago. I asked the owner if I could buy it. He replied that it was leaking and had been laying unused for many years, so I could have it for free if I wanted it. He was happy just to get rid of it without throwing it away. I switched out some o-rings and gave it some drops of oil here and there, and it was up for service again.
This summer I got into a conversation with a friend of my old father. Airguns came up and he gave me an old Webley & Scott «the junior». He had possessed it for several decades, and now he felt it was time to pass it on.

Hi not exactly northern coloado but I’ve used Airguns outdoors in Parker which is outside of d Denver. Spoke with someone there about moderators possibly the owner. Ended up ordering an Impulse Air moderator which arrived in a timely manner. Very happy with his advice and purchase.

Looking at it now nothing noticeable. So far my velocitys and accuracy has been stable 500fpe+ time will tell. Maybe some are better than others.

Devink,

Some show scraping or gouging of the receiver inside that curved slot. Not good.

Mike

Thank you for responding. Ill look into this.

It was a fabulous day. The wind machine, sounds like a landing helicopter, went off just before the match started. Glad Bob is back.

Happy Holidays

Is this in regards to the Jet 1, or Jet 2,

I will keep this in mind to be extra careful, thank you.

Ah yes, I blew up the photo and now am able to completely see the gauge that you said showed pressure.
Sorry for the miss.

I think if you settled to how where and why you are shooting you would find the ghost better than the s410. I say this because i just came in from my 10 m indoor range and put 40 shots in a 1/4” bull with my field target gun. And that was from bucket and styx. The ghost is an exceptional gun so long as you’re not changing things all the time.

I was being facetious. I started shooting pcp’s around 20 years ago, and my point was that it started out very simplistically , and then became very complex, as it does for many here on this forum. The S410 represents the simplicity.

How did you mod it? I have one and would be interested in doing so as well.

You can see a carbon barrel stiffener, which puts the barrel under tensile stress and thus stiffens it

@LRP in my quoted post there was dirt in the middle of some grass with a pink lighter or something next to it. What was that supposed to show us?

There are some pretty good deals on their website. They are out of stock on the Yokozuno I would like to have but there are others in stock.

Some better photos. The wingnut is used for the rubber clip mount.

Hey @maxtrouble
Where I come from when you warn someone off a something/someone you follow up the comment by recommending a better alternative.
Can you help us out here?

oops!

I ditched my Edgun for a loss and swore off the brand. There are too many other excellent manufacturers and rifles available.

I suggest Daystate, they have a very good reputation and excellent customer service. My Taipan has been bullet proof and accurate to a fault. I am enjoying my new Ghost, another excellent rifle.

That does make sense given the amount of data streaming off that 4K chip. It is one of the areas we suffer for getting so much performance for so little $$. The Starvis is a security cam chip and speed may not be among it's greatest attributes. The engineers have to give up something in the price/performance equation to be competitive. Firmware updates may improve performance.

Here are my Taipans - both Vet 2s in .22. They both shoot slugs and pellets well, but I use the 550m barrel gun for mostly pesting at shorter ranges (sub 100 yards) and the 700mm barrel gun for over 100 yards. They are the guns I can just pick up and take and they work and are way more accurate than I am. I just bought my youngest son a Vet 2 standard with the grey laminate stock for Christmas.

Didn’t know Athlon made dark earth color scopes?

It's more like a Bronze color with satin sheen.

I believe I've previously posted a picture of my AEA 357 Challenger with a camo wrap. The wrap had a dual purpose: firstly, to blend in during hunting season, and secondly, to experiment with its appearance. It was time to remove it.

I own three Arkens, 2 ELP 4-16, and one unmounted 6-24. I like the IQ of the glass for my aging eyes.
