I’m just tossing this out there. Do think maybe, possibly, that this is the best airgun platform out there because of the rules? Maybe they enable it to be? A lawless town would be fun for some, but I doubt it would be a flourishing productive town.

I agree, so far AGN is the best airgun forum out there, nothing can beat it IMHO . And the rules are here for a reason. Rules do not restrict me from having a very informative and ultimately helpful discussion about airgun technologies, repairs, maintenance and tuning straight to the point without flooding. And, most importantly, classifieds with all the rules imposed there is the safest place to trade. So yes, I think rules are good for this community.

Here’s a pic of my HW97k .20 in walnut.

The Pellet Shop, always arrive perfect.

Just wanted to show some options.

I just bought 2 impacts M3 700mm in .22 cal, and I am struggling getting good results shooting jsb ko 216. One was shooting 1 meter group at 50 meters, I guess something is wrong with the liner the other was not grouping so well 5 cm group at 50m. My previous impact mk2 was shout under 1 Moa group at 100 meters using same slugs !!! Anyone had this issue ?

.218 is the diameter that works for most in FX liners. Try .218 H&N heavies or the new H&N long range slug if its available.

Can you shoot on paper when it happens? Maybe a bad read from the chrony?

I own Both.
The Atom only works on a 16Joule gun. A bit, but never great. Nice to look at.
The Belitta does better, but not far so good as a Weihrauch for example

it could be done by a very skilled man on a lathe but what about the bolt or the mag
to say the barrel is complicated would be an understatement, plus the loading side problems
here is the parts diagrams at Weihrauch
cost aside it will be difficult

It is getting g a little late in the season now. At least outside.
But over the winter we all need to spread the word and get word out.
Once we have a group or a couple people we can look for a suitable public or private place to get together.

Yes sir. Are you close by?

well i disagree about the 3 and 2 adjustment screw
there are 3 screws in the trigger, but the center screw is for the safety and it put pressure on the spring and ball under it and was never used other than that
i for one took that screw and made it flush with the trigger by removing material off the top
so now the original had 2 screws and the new one has 1 screw but after some thinking the safety screw has now become an adjustment screw and back to 2 screws
in any case the adjustment screws on the CP2 or new Chasers are hidden and without the removal of the grip frame and adding a much longer screw at the rear screw 8-12mm and then finding a longer screw for the safety hole
so in reality the pistol was never a 2 stage trigger, when the front adjustment screw rests on and pushes against the sear, that cannot be a stage and the rear screw or the front screw just pushes the sear to fire
as the pistol comes from the factory early model there was no stage really the front screw rest on the sear and he rear screw did nothing as it was too short to reach the sear
the work around on the newer pistol is the right way to go and with the shorter sear adding a adjustment screw at the front of the trigger might not be worth while
i have ideas how to fix it but they are just ideas

Looks better than the S45 or the hp max. Liking the long barrel.

Hello eu comrade,

i have to ask, is 20,4mm the outside diameter?

I normally buy special sized orings on special shops for them, like HUG.

If its inner diameter is 20,4mm, you could try this:


Maybe the chinese dont mind the 0,05mm and declare its a 20,4 but in reality its an 20,35....

If its the outside diameter, maybe this could possibly fit (i calculated 20,4-1,8-1,8 which results in 16,8mm inside diameter):


Maybe it would be good if you measure the oring exact by yourself, so that you have clean results.

Interesting. I for one am not going back to JSBs. All my guns prefer the JTS 18gr definitely over the JSBs. And consistency wise is not even a competition. I haven't noticed any difference in barrel cleanliness out of my guns. And hardness wise I wouldn't say they are CPHP hard. They are more in line with H&N which falls between JSB and CPHPs. I probably avg .33" groups at 50yds with these pellets out of my Taipan Long. My Taipan Short isnt much behind that probably .45" avg. I can't beat that with anything. I will say I had given up on JSB 18gr a few yrs back due to inconsistency and found the 16gr better. Still not great but better. They had my money for years and it was theirs to lose. Got tired of wondering if the next tin I opened was gonna be as good as the last or just how many are gonna be bent up. So far 2 big orders with the JTS a year apart and pellets shoot the exact same and same skirt thickness, depth, everything. I'm happy. If JTS/AEA keeps up the consistency I'd see no reason to change. JSB would really need to tighten things up for me to consider going back.

Motörhead, it’s the times today. Most just want the quick answer and not do their due diligence anymore. I’ve catch myself doing the same thing. Someone has something I find will help me, I ask where they got it, they say amazon. Thst should be plenty enough information, right? But what else do we ask for? A LINK! Cause we’re too lazy to try and surf amazon and do it ourselves!!
Yeah I’ve done it, but I’m aware of it and I try to research stuff on my own.
There’s a fellow member who I’ve bounced back ideas with who actually replied on this thread. I consider him up there in pcp knowledge. Actually, he’s on the list I call “the bat phone” list, where I’ll make the call only if I can’t find the solution. Very sharp cat, and if he reads this he knows I’m talking about him.

But both him and I have vented about when we advise someone, it’s funny but a week or two later they’re advising someone else with basically verbatim of what we’ve said, and acts like the ideas were all his. Never once was it said “yeah i actually learned that from so and so and I’m just passing on what I learned”.
It crack us both up. People are funny, I

Equally amusing is the trend for some to read something technical, embellish it with some other abstract info that may or may not apply, then re-posting said embellished info as the new reality of the original. ( which many instances was posted originally by someone being pretty matter of fact )
Lot of variants of what could be called PARROTING ... that of just repeating what read that many times is a diluted or altered version of original data points. More the mis-information circulates the more it seems to take on a life of it's own.

Thank you FireWalker!

Tony of talon tunes posting the Vulcan 3 video on his advert post. This was the video from Steve AVS with my gun couple years ago. We were early acquirers of the platform. We never achieved top tuning before I was forced to sell via economic reasons. Now both myself and Steve are definitely supporters of this platform, and I feel it’s slightly better competition is the epic 2. But, in reality, the epic 1 in 700mm is the direct comparison. But several hundred more.

I installed the new 500mm barrel and had it out for a bit. It shoots very well at about 830fps. Acceptably quiet also. One nice thing about the Crown is the amount of adjustment it has with the transfer port and the power wheel. Seems very efficient with approx 100+ shots and maybe 70 bar of air. I'll have to make a point of figuring that out the next time I have the opportunity to get out.

NSA also very expensive here in Denmark.

In my epic Two ( CZ barrel no choke ) the 16 grain fly well, also 13 and 10 gr JSB KO MK3, shoot all of those out to 123 M
In my Maverick only 13 work well ( heavy barrel ) but others can shoot 16 grain Zan just fine, but not me.

Yes a good, long, hard course. Sorry to miss the upcoming GP due to work. I look forward to shooting this course again in the 25 lane, one shot per target configuration.
