@N2Shooter Well you certainly look prepared. Which caliber and gun did you use? What's that that you have rigged up to skin it?

The first time I got a squirrel, I had a difficult time skinning it. This device makes it a piece of cake even for city slickers like me!

Hello gentlemen.
I was wondering if there was a specific term for these type of buttstocks for MCAR and Edgun leishy 2 where the bottles are attached in reverse.



Also, are there any aftermarket buttstocks like these for other airgun models?

Thanks a lot and much appreciated in advance!

I was wondering what it was I wouldn't agree with, as on my laptop all your headings are invisible!! I only managed to see it when I selected it and all the headings suddenly became visible.

If you're going to use BC's then you may as well use multiple BC's as they will never entirely match the drag law of any pellet other than the one used as a basis. Me personally, I'm a purpose drag law man, but I know most people won't have the means to get them. Even with purpose drag laws, you will often require calibration factors (fiddle factors) to match flight measurements. What's good enough for the artillery is plenty good enough for me.

Fiddle factors are what make or break many models, definitely a love/hate relationship with them, perfectionist me says to heck with em, while the other half of me that enjoys making things functional gives them praise.

I call BC ballistic calibration now that I understand them and how they function. I can see why the likes of Hornady and yourself are purpose drag law driven. BC is an antiquated method for calculating ballistics, but its the best hobbyist have until every projectile has its own purpose drag law and we simply use projectile diameter/reference area opposed to BC to calculate drag, at least from my understanding.

We had a beautiful day for the NC state FT championship!

those looks like peice of normal black foam place on top of the wood stock. Doesn't look nice imo. I like the look of the cheek riser on the magpul but not sure if it would line up with the notches on the stock notos. If anyone have the cheek riser for the magpul and test to see if it fits on the notos stock would be nice.

Click to expand...

Yeah It wouldn't look good was just suggesting something. I got the Buck Rail Notos adapter kit which uses AR buffer and whatever stock you want. I used this for riser on normal ar stock

Why not wait till the M10

Hey guys I have a little update. So my Avenger squished out an o ring and I need a replacement, need to know the size I posted about here https://www.airgunnation.com/thread...e-plug-o-ring-for-bottle-adapter-kit.1321150/

Anyway since it was out of air I decided to pull it apart and get the poppet under inspection.

Poppet is totally fine. I think the issue is the lighter replacement spring is not ground flat. The spring must rotate certain times of shooting and the coil hangs up the poppet and makes it stick sideways. See photos




So I am going back to original spring.

Hoping this stops the brrrrrt air dump!

So I have This Scope and im looking for flip up covers. I measured (roughly) the diameter of the housing of the objective and eyepiece lenses. eye piece is 43mm obj is 55mm. I was looking at These covers and im not sure if they wouuld fit or not since the eyepiece measured around 43mm. but as i said those are rough measurements. I couldnt find my calipers and had to use a ruler and so those are rough measurements. im thinking maybe the eye piece is ACTUALLY 44mm and my measurement was off a bit. Does anyone have the Hammers 4-12x40 and know what size flip ups i need? TIA.

@Grundy1133 These cost less and I use them alot. Be sure that your measurements fit within the size parameters in the "objective diameter" and "eyepiece diameter" drop-down menus. https://www.amazon.com/Monstrum-Rubberized-Flip-Up-Objective-Diameter/dp/B0B75WRY5L/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?crid=1DD7GWGPUPOKR&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.L1rXTSatxSSfY-j1f8UnLrahHole-1dZZ_l5mfIXc5LtkfoZrl5LcYjfNYWbydZhqOhrgM2rDPlNrHt4YlsScA-XJMH9N2fKllZlFYLmJsZLhCpYAWMwT7I3Djk8PFMMv5Jb5weGVs2iw9J90D6iN-JDWDv7rupJMgMvlgEtrEqtFFGqmUU-wvXh3RU-c-tfVNbDWBmTquA6CvvbBezDJY8M9TDRfGTHIn9YkDZWEAZZSzL7mla9TKKnfyYjLLdbAQYhcd8Uy7sLTPdDuMsv3VbcWnzSUpGsGfP8hLRaf_o.f04L0RshRiJKBkRmO9EnyhvTMv-0Vmjp9U6FXKwOM0Q&dib_tag=se&keywords=monstrum+scope+covers+flip+up&qid=1728387237&sprefix=Monstrum+scope+covers,aps,321&sr=8-1-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY&psc=1

Nice rifle.

oooh I like the sound of that ..

Thanks @TMH - I found the view but now I have another problem that I had when I got the gun. One of the M4-10 screws (15) came stripped when I got the gun new, so I have never been able to take the barrel off. I guess I'll have to figure out how to remove it and then replace it. I may try and take it to a machine shop and see if they can't get it out for me. I don't have the tools to do that. Here's the problem screw. Then maybe I can get it apart to change the o-ring.

Your welcome. Crow

Thanks. Crow

Thanks. I thought being Webley‘s couldn’t go wrong. Go for it. Crow

Thanks for that info. Had no idea. I’m the same age as the Senior. I was used a lot more than it. Have the scraps and dents to prove it.
This Senior hasn’t been used, but it will now.
Are they similar to a rifle to work on? Only smaller scale. Crow

yes, and I think simpler too.. great find.

I could have sworn I saw someone mentioned that they got a Huma-Air regulator for Vulcan 3 in 30 caliber that can go over 175 bar but I can't find that posting. Anyone know of anyone that has? Was wondering how it performs and what foot pounds of energy at 200 bar it's putting out for different grains.

ask kyles1990. the reg was something specifically made based on their development/input.

i think you might be looking for this:

Sorry, came out wrong. Meant go find the guy who took his stuff and get it back.
Nice shot on the squirrel at that distance. Shame about getting the gun stole.

Nightforce with the mill c reticle is money in my opinion.

I got my 100bb magazine in, Wow super fast shipping , Cant try it out as I have the gun loaned out to my inlaws and daughter about 30 miles from me.

The Minnesota Air Field Target Assn. will be holding its October match next Saturday the 12th at Oakdale Gun Club. Arrival time is 09:00. After setup and a short safety meeting the match will commence. Weather forecast looks good and I hope to see you there. Uj

Thanks. I might give it a try.

From the muzzle. I started at max and came down. Mine didn't fall off till till the second mark from the muzzle end and was significantly easier to cock. If you're not seeing any increase with additional hammer spring tension it's just wasted air.

I'm starting to get packed up and head over a few days early. Looks like a great weekend for us!!!!
Thx

Daystate made a custom fit gun case for their Wolverine Sapphire BUT failed to provide adequate protection to prevent shifting - resulting in a loss of a $3200. Airgun, because it rode on the muzzle end with less than 1” of closed cell foam in front. That wore through quickly and the first ape to drop it nose down deformed the shroud and ooooh well. So as nice as a hard case is to prevent side wall damage the gun must be packed to prevent either end from shifting - they have to be secured in the middle.

Click to expand...

Those Daystate and Brocock custom-fitted Styrofoam-lined boxes INSIDE A WELL-FITTING SECOND CARDBOARD SLEEVE are the best-bang-for-the-buck factory packaging I've seen. Unfortunately the less than 1” of closed cell foam in front of the muzzle is the weak link. And apparently the more incompetent the shipping-company delivery-driver, the better his (or her) nose becomes for sniffing out weak links in packaging.

I've received air pistols damaged in shipping that were shipped in FOAM-LINED HARD-PLASTIC GUN CASES inside a cardboard box sleeve that the muzzle blew right through the end of ALL that packaging when an ape dropped it end-first onto pavement. Yes, the seller is a lawyer. And yes, when I attempted to educate him how to properly package to avoid damage he cut me off with proclamations about how well he packages. He then put the pistol inside a soft-cloth sleeve inside the otherwise would've-been-adequate-packaging; thereby rendering the otherwise would've-been-adequate-packaging totally ineffective.

When I have the correct Daystate or Brocock packaging for a gun I'm shipping, I use it... but always reinforce the weak link enough to make it no longer a weak link (that apes can smell as easily as they can burning cannibis).

.

I have a Sidewinder and an Air max on springers. Thousands of shots. Not 1 problem. I like the Sidewinder best. Holds POI and is repeatable.

I have had three.
I sold one and gave one to son#1.
I will keep this one:
