So, you can chase golf balls with a pellet gun, SWEET.I was given permission to hunt groundhogs on a golf course that was shut down a few years ago. They were thrilled that I stoped and asked and told me to do whatever it took to clean them up. They told me they would give me free passes when it all opened back up.
Ya,...Talk about false advertising. I took a screen shot and was going to post but never did. Looks like a HW97 in the picture?
I thought that too!From the title of your post I was expecting to see a beautiful walnut stock on your HW50.![]()
It may be the power setting? Eu would be limited power?I believe any of them imported into the USA in the last few years have that stamp.
Sounds perfectly normal to me.Was driving home from Tawas City , Michigan and decided to stop at High Pneumatics to buy some pellets. Looked at a new M4 and now it’s all I can think about and I already own two impacts. Whats wrong with me?
I had a hunch but didn’t get a chance to deep dive on that.Air Venturi & Pyramid Air share the same physical address in Ohio.
I've owned guns from both the Czech Republic and from India and from what I have seen there is a world of difference between the two. Czech guns have always been top notch IMO, and from a standpoint of precision and accuracy I'd actually rate them above guns made in the UK. Indian guns on the other hand I'd rate significantly lower than their British counterparts. Some seem to be of good quality, while others are abysmal.It seems that no matter how clear Claire and AA try to be, people still misunderstand.
I have no insider information whatsoever here, but from all of the public statements alone, the partnership with Precihole is 1) so that Air Arms can import and distribute Precihole rifles and 2) Precihole can produce lower end Air Arms guns so that AA has an option at the entry level price point.
People seem to forget that years ago an Air Arms S400 WAS considered an "entry level" rifle because of the price point it fell into. Decades of inflation later, along with an incredible advance in quality of guns from the Far East, that isn't really the case.
There's also the elephant in the room that the S200 (which the Indian produced X200 will replace) was also NOT made by Air Arms but rather made in the Czech-Republic. Eastern European manufacturing has not always had a solid reputation either, yet that gun is extremely well regarded. I am confident that the X200 will do the same since it has so many features that people have been clamoring for from AA rifles (reversible side lever cocking, a BOTTLE, external hammer spring adjustments, etc.). Why is it a bad thing that Air Arms is bringing a less expensive rifle to market? There are so many threads on this forum that complain about the rising prices in this industry but when a manufacturer actually tries directly address that problem we get threads like this.
There is no evidence whatsoever that Air Arms will outsource any part of production for their existing product line to India. To make that claim is disingenuous.
Looking forward to getting my hands on the Indian produced X200 and taking it to the podium at PA's Gunslynger event at next year's cup.
EDIT: Typo.
Daystate make a gun that is suppose to shoot slugs and yet they haven`t supplied a program for them...Sounds very british indeed. Thanks for sharing. I am sure Daystate will come about this. Like I`ve said many times Daystate don`t test their guns with the different ammo availble on the marked at the factory. Strange guncompany or just british.Had it out for 2 hours today. Good quality all around.
On the factory 13.43g and 15.89g setting - very easy. Just put speed ind and you are ready. Very air effecient too.
My only complain is the lack of factory settings! There should be MANY more options for pellets/slugs.
if I want to shoot a 16g slug I need to go to advanced and adjust hammer (V)/dwelltime with no options for using the software to calculate speed by pressing desired speed.
Come on Daystate.... This is a major issue.
