Well, Mike and all of you know as time goes by things change checking today non tomorrow
whoever was making the grip were on top of their game because Beeman would not take anything other than good quality i would assume
the Black stripped wood is Bolong ETA and that wood come from the Philippines and they would have had the skills and craftsman to make the grips and that would be my guess

trigger is double action,
but a pretty short throw
(not an inch long pull like co2 pistols)
and on the light side for a double action,
i have no problems with it shooting fast fast fast.

accuracy was surprisingly better than i had hoped,
like i said previously,
soda cans at 40yds arent much of a problem,
and at the 5-25yd distances i speed shoot,
it centers everything,
never measured groups,
but no bigger than a quarter size groups,
and alot were much smaller.

takes alot for a cheap gun to impress me lol

Does it have a threaded muzzle or would I have to get creative?

Today i was working on my new Hatsan, to be able to adjust the level on the scope turet.
So i came up with this idea:
For a ski clam has angled grips, i cut 2 pieces of plywood to fit the rifle.
As clamped and trimming the rifle picatiny rail and the scopes turet level, it appeared that tightening the vice-grip more or less,
the level can be accurate trimmed.

Sure....."your wife"....sure bud, if you don't want to own up to it. See if they have a size 12 for me...errrr...my wife. Lol

haha size 12 would be scary

Got bored and swapped the bottle for a long tube. It added an inch to the shroud length, but I added a baffle to get it even quieter. I have a 20mm CF tube I will eventually make he shroud out of and that will fill that gap at the breech.

200cc tube, and it's so much lighter and better balance now. Plus it makes it easier to get a hand on the tube for a grip. Just feels better. Didn't need 425cc's of air on the 177 anyways.

This might be the case. On another note, the OP still hasn't posted a pic as several have requested.

So simple... And so likely. This is best case scenario.

hey @jwrabbit123 , wanted to check in and see how the press and die are holding up 6 months later? I'm interested in the gmi dies due to what I've seen in this thread and their extremely fast response times.

@dp621 Try this thread. He continued here

I degassed it to change the gauge last spring. Upon regassing its old orings gave up. So it got a total reseal. And I’ve been chasing this leak ever since. I was about to loose my mind. Can’t believe it’s the new gauge. It just hit me this morning to balloon it.

I've had to replace a few gauges on my inexpensive guns, not for LEAKS but simply because they were no longer reading correctly.

These gauges really are cheap crap but, I'm not yet convinced the expensive ones are any better?

To my untrained eye they're a cut above. They're my go to for moderators, 3 Falix and 1 Sarissa. I prefer the Falix, more manageable length for a walk about.

I do chase them around from time to time when I am fiddling with my M4 but put theme back where they belong and have no problems .

I just went to the Midwest Airgun Show website and it looks like it’s been hacked. Perhaps someone here should contact the owner(s) and let them know?

*** Moderator edit *** do not link to pages that have been hacked.

I have 2 sidewinders and 2 frontier and 2 Althon and IMO the hawkes are hands down the much better scopes.

oh wow, looks awesome.

For all users of scopes with adjustable scope rings where the rear of the scope is higher than the front, how do you measure the actual height of the scope so it will align with ballistics calculators?

I would think it is still the center line if the front lens to get the distance between the bore and the scope site, that tilt is part of the relationship

It cost a dollar. Lol, hopefully it is the right one.

Looking for an AGN member who has access to Full version on Fusion 360.

I use the "free" version of Fusion 360 for most of my design and 3d printing projects.
The free version does not allow the conversion of mesh files (.stl) to "parametric prismatic". Which would then allow me to modify the .stl files easily

I have approximately 24 .stl files which I need converted to parametric prismatic.

I dabble into some 3d printing and willing to trade 3d printing for some file conversions.

Thank you in advance

The lesser numbered models are solely air cooled

Click to expand...

Yes, my understanding is that all models below the CS4/CS4-I are only air cooled. However, it appears the temperature gauge is only included on the CS1-I and not on the CS2 or CS3 models. Possibly due to better overall cooling on the CS2/CS3?

Your barrel will tell you what it likes. However I have four .177s. All four group best with .452, head size. JSB and Air Arms brands are what all four like.

Wolverine HP .30 took it's first Jabalina.

thank you all for interesting ideas
: )

It would be interesting to reshoot this with a good bench set up and compare the results.

Reximex, Kral, Kuzey and whatever else.

In the end the design was made by a small group of people.
You may call them engineers!

The guys making things will never get rich from that.

I really like my Pelican case with the Magpul DAKA Grid foam. This one is the Pelican iM3100. The Magpul foam is great because I don't have to commit to cutting a solid foam for a particular loadout. I have 2 rifles with different configurations and it's nice to be able to arrange the foam to accommodate either one depending on which one I want to carry.

It is a bit heavy but I love the peace of mind it gives that I can just throw it in the back of the car along with the other luggage without worrying about the gun.
