Update. The adjustable rings helped greatly!

Now she is finally usable again! I wish I had gotten these ages ago. 1000 rounds of pellets more or less lost trying to figure this out.

I do not condone yesterday's negative conversation. I removed all my input that wasn't productive, and I offer an apology to anyone who may have viewed the transaction.

@Ricochet We're good. The thread remains focused upon the Argus and the OP's experience with it.

I got a stupid idea last night. And those are the worst because they nag and nag.
So the 499b is the world’s most accurate BB gun. How about a target stock with an adjustable cheek piece, butt hook and plan rest? Maybe laminated wood.
I can’t make a stock I have no skill or tools. But I could hack up an existing stock to fit the 499 frame. Maybe a rugged 10/99 stock. They are inexpensive.

I just wanted to come on here to give a shout out to Terry from buckrail. I am so shocked that this little $30 25 cal moderator made my gk1 mousefart quiet on full power!!! At first when i shot it in my house i didnt think the mod was doing too too much. I noticed i was wrong when the next shot i made without the mod left my ears ringing. Today was the first day i used my gk1 outside and i have to say i am so so so happy with this mod. This thing literally made the gk1 sound like a toy outside. Im sure DonnyFL's are great but i could never see myself spending hundreds on a moderator while something this cost effective and sufficient is on the market. Buck Rail seems to be one of the only companies looking out for the less fortunate who want to indulge in this hobby. Figured i would post this so future GK1 owners know that this is a great addition to the gun. Once again thank you Buck Rail!

Lookin g for a power tune for my FX Dynamic Compact in .22

Currently about 45 fpe with AEA 19.3gn

That pellet has prven to be the most accurate of any of the MANY I've tested.

Can someone suggest a power tune above 60fpe? (and that is accurate)

Happy New Year!

Coloque un parche de tela ajustado alrededor del cepillo y vuelva a intentarlo.

No tan ajustado como para que el cepillo no pueda moverse por el cañón, pero lo suficientemente ajustado como para que no se resbale al girar.

Realice la medición varias veces para asegurarse de que la precisión sea constante dentro del 5 por ciento.

No habia pensado en lo del parche de tela, muy buena idea. Muchas gracias, lo pondre en practica.

AFAIK the PM2 has 26 mils of elevation travel total so if bottomed out 26 mils up is all that's there, not including using the reticle for additional hold overs, or perhaps in conjunction with a wedge prism.

Putting 40gr Altaros Kings at 950 fps my app shows 21.8 mils for 400Y so I'm assuming 40 moa of scope angle/base combined with cantilever should be 11 mils or so of compensation.

Anyway that's cool shooting so far out just dialing and having enough down to sight in at 38Y!

It's part of the reason I got my March Genesis so I could do ELR using a normal zero because it has 86 mils of travel.

My bad ... scope was not in front of me ... was thinking 25 mil per rotation x2

Looking at scope it is 14 mil per rotation x2, tho not a full rotation on second time around ... yea @ 25 mil you can dial in from zero'ed

I fixed the knock lever and now it shoots great. This gun is super easy to work on, reminds me a lot of the old qb78/79 guns. Thanks for the help on this one guys.

Blackdog,
You’re gonna need to go to at least 140 bar on the regulator to get decent power.
The shot count will be …. What Ii will be

Yeah Ive been from 150 to 120 bar . 150 gives 14, 15 good shots with H&N field target trophy 20.06 at 900fps
ran out of those pellets and have been testing with various others.

Biggest advantage from regulator so far is consistency from shot one till it drops off reg. With no regulator speed would build for the first ten shots . Then it would still climb slower for another 6 or 7 and then start falling .

A couple of things...

The 25 and 22 tends to have "jamming " issues with certain pellets and slugs. With pellets, particularly in the 25, anything heavy and too pointed can move too far forward in the magazine. With slugs, anything fitting too loose in the magazine will allow them to move forward enough to cause the jamming.

The other "jamming" issue with the semi auto is when the cylinder air pressure falls below what is required for proper and complete cycling of the action. The only fix for this is for the operator to pay attention to the pressure.

Have ypu tried any long, heavy slugs in your 177 yet?

yeah I don’t let it go below 10mpa,
I do have some 10grain zan’s slugs,
which I have not tried yet because of cold outside.
I am just using 7ish grain for 5-10 meter indoor shooting.

I didnt say accuracy. If you like that pcp, that is great, I do not myself., it also lacks a good magazine, nice trigger and being lightweight.

Plant a mulberry tree in your backyard and you will never run out of targets. Neighbor in Missouri had a huge one in her front yard and no matter how many of us kids gathered around, they wouldn't fly away until it got dark.

I've got one on the way.
Sounds like a much cheaper version of the Immersive's, which I really like, plus I've always really liked the Veryons.

Interesting, find. Please let us know your experience with it once you get a chance!

Por partes: Os cuento lo anterior, pero lo ampliaré un poco más.
En España la potencia máxima permitida para las carabinas de aire comprimido es de 24 julios, cualquier carabina que supere esta potencia necesitará un permiso de armas, estas carabinas tienen que salir de fábrica tal cual, y su fabricante debe tener licencia de fabricante de armas de fuego, al igual que Weihrauch, Steyr y Daystate, armas de aire comprimido que se producen en España con licencia de armas tipo E. No se pueden modificar, no se puede modificar un arma de cuarta categoría para convertirla en un arma de tercera categoría, que incluye las armas de fuego.
Lo que llamáis zonas privadas son cotos de caza, donde se paga para poder cazar, también está prohibida la caza con carabinas de aire comprimido y por supuesto para poder cazar tendréis que tener licencia de armas.
Sólo las empresas que cumplen los requisitos que marca la ley están autorizadas a erradicar plagas y no les resulta fácil conceder dichos permisos.

All this monkey business is why I don't post pictures on Gateway or Airguns BBS. I would have never even posted this information about Noricas and it's been very helpful to so many owners. There's a lot of them out there and very little info. Two year old thread and here it popped up again yesterday. I'm really pleased that I am able to help. I also have a bunch of informative threads with lots of pics on Warriors in "metal shop". A lot of hard to find Prewar BSA stuff. Everything was just simply loaded from a file.

Beeman S1, Marksman 45, Norica Jet tool

I made a tool to disassemble a Marksman 45 made by Norica out of an iron pipe nipple. I bought the nipple for $2.50 and turned it to a useable dimension and then milled slots so it can reach the spring to depress it allowing the trigger mechanism to be removed prior to getting the piston out for...

Happy new year to y'all airgunners as well.

Sawney Bean · Jan 1, 2025

I rarely shoot tethered at all, but I think it's something that has a lot of potential for future airgun designs. For airguns that are big bores, semi/full auto, pistols or replicas, having a remote tank of very high pressure air makes a lot of sense. A gun like the Mordax is limited to about one magazine at higher power. Air shotguns are limited to only a few shots per fill. Replicas could be made significantly more realistic and more powerful if they weren't limited to 12g CO2 for power. For any of these, having a small remote SCBA tank would be a good option. It would also allow for a lot of design creativity. Imagine a multipump pneumatic where both the pump and the reservoir were remote.

marflow 777 · Jan 1, 2025

with no preload adjustment on the sear at what point does your get engaged
with all the standard trigger components you can get the trigger down to under 2mm in movement
it is an interesting setup
