@Ta-Ta Toothie Is this compressor still doing well. I see on gx it is back in stock at 999 plus 10% off with their code. Seems a great option for 900 bucks.

I thought you were talking about the 5K2 and I was going to cry. Paid 2500 for mine, then they dropped them to like 1700......

Yeah my AGT fill kit is nice enough too. It's supposed to be a bit pricier than this Altaros so I was wondering if there is a noticeable difference in quality.
I like my FX the best, or maybe on par with the AGT. The Best Fittings I have is next to garbage unfortunately. Gauge is always nice though.

Let me ask this, How do the pellet's fit in the GKI 177, I am sure the 8gr are going to be loose , But how about the 10 and 13 gr pellets Any problem jamming. Do you have to seat each and every pellet??? My GKl 25 pellets H&N and the GTO fit so tight my thumb gets sore pushing in 50 to 80 pellets ,,,

So far the JSB EXACT 16.20 shooting the best in my .177

I like it, but the air cylinder, plenum, and barrel length needs to be sized up just a bit so it isn't directly competing with the GK1, and this will give it a full magazine worth of high power shots instead of just a portion of them.

One thing I really like about the Mordax over the other siblings (Sidewinder regular and compact) is that it moves the action out forward of the shooters head. I have the regular Sidewinder, and the thing I dislike about it is that the action is so loud with my head sitting right on it - I also have a Huben K1 and although similar, it is much quieter in this regard. The Sidewinder is just not a pleasant gun for me to shoot, when compared to others.

It would be cool to see a Mordax action and trigger set up paired with the bottle set up from one of the others. The length would kind of negate the value of the folding stock, so that could be fixed for what I am thinking of. That would be a much more pleasant gun to shoot than the Sidewinder, and obviously add more shots and power too.

"They don't really provide support, but they do have pockets. Anyone who has had to carry someone's purse because they didn't think about pockets knows the value of pockets."

hummmmm - no comment I might get kicked off here

I did my best with the trigger this afternoon. I hosed it out with solvent and took out the trigger blade. Nothing in there that looked worn or rough. I got some nanoparticles on everything and adjusted it the best I could.

I fine tuned it between shots with the adjustment screw and got it working dandy.

It's actually pretty sweet. It breaks nice. Maybe not crisp but no lumps at all. About a 1# pull. If you take up the first stage and release it, you have a light single stage trigger. You don't get a second stage wall back. It's just a smooth (long) single stage release. It's not bad at all. You just have to remember the wall is not there or you will pull through a shot.

I put another 350 shots through it tonight. I purposely released the trigger and pulled it again many times. It's actually silky smooth. Just no second stage wall. The fine adjustment was the key. It just needs to be set perfectly and things work great. If you back the screw out too far things are lumpy and "roll over" when it breaks. A little too far in and it goes off before you feel your second stage. There is about a half turn on that screw between too much and not enough. Once I hit that spot all my problems disappeared and I had a really nice trigger release.

I had an Alpha Proj and loved it! No clue with the AP20.
The Alpha Proj has a trigger that takes a bit to set up and isn't perfect but is very good. The consistency and accuracy were outstanding.

Hi, I'm totally new to PCP rifles and this is my 1st post/question on this foru. I received my M4 Standard today with the Air Marksman Loki rail.
I have a question for you, is the rail touching the bottle?
Thank you

Well!
Searching tonight I found the 910 Airguns Dreamline Disassembly & Reassembly videos
What a great resource!
(links below)
But if you have any insights please reply

I have that pistol, so unless it changed ... info is solid

Here's my backstops

I similarly use cantilevered rail extenders for my scopes that have trouble mounting close-enough to my eye.

I think I only had to do it for two of my scopes, the "no eye relief" prismatic scope and the Sightmark Wraith Mini. Everything else I have either has a built-in cantilevered mount (like my thermal) or they're fine being mounted further up. For the Wraith Mini it was kind of borderline -- I don't really need the rail extender, but it makes it far more comfortable for my neck.

My preference is the ADM rail extenders as they're quick-release. So if your scope doesn't have a quick-release on it, at least the rail extender gives you that option. They also pretty reliably find zero on re-mounts. I haven't tried every variety of rail extenders, but ADM is high quality and gives you quick release, as well as making mounts compatible with a wide variety of scope bases.

I have the same setup. I only use that filter when filling air tanks. If I am filling an airgun, I would just connect it directly. I think the description states it has a built in oil and water separator but who knows how good it is.

Click to expand...

Decent. It's got charcoal and molecular seives and some felt pads. It's kind of a "Lego part" for chinese air filtration. The purple filter and even my big tuxing compressor use exactly the same acrylic tube filter insert. Condensing water before the filter helps it last a LOT longer.

Well a good days work and a few cuss words and the drs is back to holding air and shooting .. I found several other orings that you could delaminate using fingernail .. I’m guessing I just had a bad batch of rings on this gun . Went on to the tube 100yard range and shot a .565” 5 shot group using griffin boat tail slugs .. she’s back but when will I need to go down this road again .. hopefully next year at the soonest

good

Yeah Dave, .30 cal. Such a great shooting gun. The Huma HP reg I installed last summer (set at 160 bar) has been amazing. I couldn't shoot Hades in it before with the OEM reg even though they're the same weight as the 44.75 diabolos. Just not enough oomph. NOW it's pushing 66 grains with MOSH (minute of squirrel head) @ 50 yards! Next time out I'll see what it does at 75 & 100 & how much holdover is needed.

Click to expand...

Cool. You should be about 725 fps with 77 fpe. Should be good at 50 yards, but drop at 100 will be much more than the .30 pellets you normally shoot. About 7 inches more holdover than you currently use. About 2 Mil.

I also used the pen method for both out and in. For the in/assembly, I simply used a rod (like an aluminum knitting needle) lightly pushed down the hollow pen tube to dislodge the regulator into place.
Super easy.

Oh my, spirits too? We may need an exorcist! Or maybe it was too much baby food cooked in aluminium pots. It is dangerous you know? Perhaps the country of Kalifornia has declared those terrible pots and pans to cause reproductive health. Lord knows it has messed up the minds of their government. Next it will be hazardous to shoot air guns. But wait, it already is! We are certainly dooooomed as airgun enthusiasts. Dito.

I gave up hope when I learned the California surgeon General informed me the split shot sinkers I've been biting onto leaders since age 5 were known to cause cancer. Permanently in the moment... It's been 34years...any minute now.

Got my M4 25cal compact Monday. Tuned myself. 1.5 groups at 75 yards. Off shaky tripod. Reg 110 macro 8 micro 3. 970 fps. Just slug Kit JSB 25.39 Still fine tuning. Haven’t tried my slugs yet. Two mags on fill.

Would a Pard NV007v 12mm be a good NV option for a TX200 with a Sightron STAC 4-20x50?

Hey, a .243 to the head is no more messy than a sling shot or pellet gun. Great tasting fare no matter how they are brought down.
Congrats! I sure miss hunting bobwhite quail and eating them even more. I remember a 13 covey day in central Kansas back in the early 1990s.

I have the Edgun Leshiy 2 in .22, finding a 22 caliber magazines is nearly impossible. I purchased one that is 5.5s, for slugs. Do I need to do anything to the gun to shoot slugs through it?

Click to expand...

Nope - just choose the slugs that fit the mag. If they’re like my .30 slug mags (.300), they will shoot .220 slugs. Take a look at thepelletshop.com.

No, I’m using the 300b 300cc AirMarksman bottle & valve.

Click to expand...

Sorry I worded that poorly. I was just curious about the bottle size.
9-10 extra shots is a gain worth considering

I’ll keep an eye out. I’m looking for a little atom myself. Kick in the ol nuts atoms are only like $70 in the UK. Someone posted a bunch of huggets in one of the classifieds a month or so ago. They had quite a few brand new ones. I think it was on American Airguns. That place with a bunch of scammers

Good luck on your search

Wonder what the LOP is on the Fenix. From the photos, it’s hard to say if it will be comfortable for those with long appendages…
