I didn't remove anything. I took the action out of the stock to bend and re-assembled to test fire.

There is no shroud nor spring around the barrel of this rifle. You can see the muzzle in the photo. There is just a front sight up there.

The maple jig fits around the barrel behind the sight. The pressure is on the barrel alone.

The Hatsan has some baffles in a plastic lug. The barrel does not extend very far into that assembly. Again I put the saddle over the barrel. Not the "suppressor" assembly.

It takes a buttload of force to bend a barrel. If you rested that jig on a plastic part and torqued it you are going to break something. Common sense dictates that the jig apply force to only the part that needs bending.

Sorry my mistake. I mixed it up with the 48.

Suddenly I have a craving for a nice iguana taco. I'm going to have to make it out to Florida one of these days and let you show me the ropes. That looks like too much fun.

...I mean shooting them. Not the birth control thing.

Come on down and we'll show you a great time!
I also agree with you on the whole BC thing.

Are you going to offer these? Charles

Yessir. There are actually a few new ones on the way. They brought back the laminates too which I've been really looking forward to.

Sometimes wish it were easy to remove the cylinder head on CD4 and do yourself like in CS3. That way you know for sure. Was so quick and easy.

Noladad · Jul 18, 2024

I have some experience tearing down and tuning springer but have never attempted an underlever, much less one with all the trappings on the top that this thing has. Lots of plastic add ons and such. Are they basically just a B3 ?
Insight and BOLO's appreciated.

Check out this video of us taking the M4 out on a Prairie Dog hunt to see what they were capable of!

*Warning - video contains Hunting content*

Hi Utah air guns,
In the video with the rifle that was left “stock standard” for testing purposes. What length barrel and what size slugs/pellets were you pushing out of it? I’m reading lots of different views on max sizes for the standard liner? It would be helpful to know where to start.
Cheers

How much does 3cc of plenum increase fps? 5-10?

Good point.

Hey guys .

I have a Scout Epoch .22 awesome gun I love It . But every now and again when I press the safety off button It will fire without me touching the trigger a little unsettling to say the least , anybody else had this problem ??

I haven’t had any issue like this either. Have you made any adjustments to the trigger settings?

This is the mold you've been looking for:

.22 air mold 8 cavity AL mold - MP-molds

Best moulds for casting lead bullets. Hollow point, hollow base or solid bullets. Molds are Brass or aluminum. The best money can buy.

www.mp-molds.com

Get a .222 sizer and you should be in business.

Yes this is a excellent slug for the 222 barrel I like to cast in pure lead and they drop at .223" or just under that
if casting with that MP mold using a little tin they cast at .224" a good speed is at 960 fps they'll cast at 35 grain

I just mounted this Seals 6x24x50 scope on my QB78S rifle. And so far it’s a good combo.

addison · Jul 18, 2024

So far I'm impressed with this platform! The accuracy is what you would expect with a fx higher end platform. Consistent Gatorade bottle hit at 125 yards with a 22 cal shooting 15.89gr fx pellets/jsb. Stupid accuracy at 20-55 yard. Only thing needed now is rail to protect the bottle and underside of body of platform. The trigger sucks out of all fx guns I've shot. It was a toss up over impact or panthera compact.
Next gun will be a .177 because that seems to be the best gun for my usage and application.

25.cal · Jul 25, 2024

I’ll take a look. Didn’t see the one on the IA 1350

Echo · Jul 19, 2024

I got the FX Planthera Hunter Compact in 22 cal. I swapped the stock for a folding stock and attached a carbon fiber stock. i was able to knock it down to 3228 grams with a scope mounted. I really like how it feels and it shoots great.

And before you pay, have a call with the seller and make sure it's a landline or a cell, not a VOIP temporary text now crap https://www.phonevalidator.com/

Just checked and this service list my number as being in a large city 50 miles away. Naturally the County tax map ( harris maps is who they use) does show my correct info/address.

Personally, it's the worst new model anyone could have (eagerly) anticipated. I've only had my M3 18 months and was ready to dish out another £2k, because I expected more than a part removal and colour change.

I would replace it with an fx amp as it should be free.

Ok ill wait and see if they get back to me. I always had velocity issues with this rifle , First 3 shots always below desired speed, then every fourth shot or so velocity would drop and impact would be inch low at 50 yds, otherwise it is very accurate avg 8 to 10mm. groups. thanks again

I definitely noticed with my t9 that the more I used it the less buggy it got.

Most definitely. Also the best slugs for mine are NSA 79 grn. Those spit like sunflower seeds and cycle very well. Gonna try the NSA 93 grn next.
I also noticed that one of my magazines are a little bent on the inside. I noticed it after trying the Texoma 102 grain. It didn't cycle fully and got bent and I had to push it out of the magazines. Too heavy. Now I definitely get random cycle issues when I use that magazines but I am aware of the damage. Other than that, with the good mag I cycle perfectly with JSB Diobolo & Hades pellets, and NSA 79 grain slugs. Gonna try NSA 93 because the NSA 79 seems a little small in the mag but function very well

Thank you @Nomadic Pirate 66!

john8 · Nov 25, 2024

I've often wondered about switching the lever to the left side. It would appear to offer you the ease of loading while leaving your trigger finger near the trigger. It's a moot point in my case as all my rifles are semiautomatic.

The thread title has to do with a longer barrel…..not a micro carbine. Modding what one has is a common theme in airgunning.

Dave

gotcha.. my bad, i would check the barrel o-rings first, just to make sure those are in tact. the loss in velocity can be attributed to those o-rings being damaged.

Yes indeed I am still waiting for the "HOLY GRAIL" of slug world to appear

Is it really so much to ask? Lol.

I don't get why not same premise as hybrid, in 25.4 with a closed hollow tip. I don't care about heavy slugs I want the same energy to fly further. A 34gr pellet vs a 34 gr slug at the same velocity, the slug is superior... the slug isn't AS prone to err as diabolos from minor issues such as a tiny imbalance and GP turning it into a whirly bird. My 890 in a slug will hold the same energy/velocity at 120y as a diabolo Will at 25y. So far the light ZAN and NSAs HATE my barrels yet heavier slugs up to 34. Do better, but my damn near 90 shots turns to 40 real quick when I'm giving the required HS and preload to hurl 34gr at 860+.

Anyway. Decision is made to cap it at 30gr with slugs and stick with the hps for 80 and further on larger than crow/squirrel game. Hybrids within 80 are the tool. Winged friends get pellets.

c3521141 · Jul 19, 2024

thanks I'll give both a try I kind of done the vice coin pliers and stuff and bent a quarter into, tried a good screw driver not much luck so I'll try heat next. Where does one even sell something like this?

N2 Shooter · Jul 22, 2024

I have had great terminal performance with my .30cal Hades on a few groundhogs. The problem is their accuracy falls apart after 50 yards or so. A great substitute is the FX Hybrid Slug. It holds more long range energy, but it has rapid expansion, which quickly sheds energy in prey. This may prevent passthroughs on some game.

rangur1 · Jul 17, 2024

Yes, there is a mammoth price difference with these two options. So, why buy them? I found the glass on the 6-24x50 HD scope awesome in glass quality and affordability. It’s my go to. However, for target shooting, the Delta Stryker is beyond belief with the field of view at 100. My target shooting friend dumped his Athlon stuff and bought 3 delta scopes according, after using mine. Yes, price is a bit**. But they produce! It’s a get what you pay for deal.

JaceSpace1369 · Jul 18, 2024

Not really big bore power here but the kalibrgun 9mm gives you about 20 regulated shots from 300b to 200b and can shoot 68gr hybrids at 870fps.
