I like the idea of the dot and chevron option. For anyone with an astigmatism like me, the chevron reticle has less distortion than the standard circle dot. At least for my eyes, I know everyone is different.

Biggest issue is that "Powder guns" are single level as in the receiver/barrel are in line being not very tall. While a springer action follows a similar profile, a PCP generally does not as it is much taller and typically a double stack being a lower tube under an upper receiver being much taller. Mono block type receivers can be taller yet. As such placing a PCP especially into a recycled stock ( Said Stocks ) often lacks the internal depth to properly have the action drop in far/deep enough to have some degree of correct ergonomics, trigger placement etc .... Some can be made to work.

Thanks Scott. That makes sense.

I was just experimenting with how I hold my semi.
When I shoot my Steyr ProX "the follow through" is critical for consistency, and also trigger being pulled straight back. If I don't concentrate on these a shot will go out father than one would think it should. Do everything right and nice groups happen. But yeah mine shoots better if I hold the gun firmer.

Be fun to try a Slash and compare both these.

I bought a Western Mordax Venom so I will compare it to my ProX and maybe a Slash someday in the future.

It's lighter than the Huben and Sidewinder. Neither jumped for me but this one seems to be able to do things those aren't in terms of accuracy. So far..
Neither of the others are dogs in the accuracy department either.

Charlies yes and no
the punch would work i guess but you still have to take the gun down to a bare tube at least in the back
now you would have to have the rifle held and the Phillips screw bucked with a screwdriver and then get in there and give a whack
now if the edge of the screw rivet has fracture off it might not be long enough to rebite
this is a little problem that is a huge PITA
those mounts that Hector used are on Ebay for a few bucks i have some that i have made Diana 5-6 mount for
but they are ugly and need to be refinished
now i hate to disagree with Hector but i will you see a Weaver mount would have be better and the why is you can get them with round bottoms
now with the round bottom the mount will always set north and south front to back it has no choice
you job would be to clock the mount top dead center, and you will have the old holes to use
but you are still in the weeds the gun still has to come apart
could it be screwed on maybe, could it be screwed on and epoxied better choice, could it be riveted on from the inside out where the rivet is peened on the outside i like that idea
BUT EVERYONE OF THOSE IS A HUGE PITA
here is that mount
https://www.ebay.com/itm/192258428863

that is my opinion and some ideas but maybe the rivet from the inside out is the best

10M guns (FWB, Walther, Diana, Anschütz) have extremely durable mainsprings, in part because they are low-stress designs. My LG55's 60-yo. mainspring was perfect, even when the seller had cocked the gun before sending it my way.

Looks like a store

Here in NE Ohio, the past few weeks (actually almost 2.5 months), it has been 85* + with 80%+ humidity. Too hot to even relax on the porch at night!

Last two days, it's been mid 70s, and low humidity ... absolutely AWESOME!!! It was even a touch chilly this morning as well.

As some may know the one downfall to the RTI Mora is the bottle rail. It isn't very sturdy, it has some wiggle to it. I came up with a fix for it. Here is the list of what I used.
Saber Tactical 60mm bottle clamp. I used the arca one.
Seekins 10 inch Arca rail.
You will need a 10x24 tap, hack saw, belt sander.
I cut off the arca rail on the clamp with the hack saw. Then sanded it down so it would fit under the rail. Then I lined it up with the hole in the Seekins rail, after I mounted it to the Mora rail. I marked where to drill and tap the clamp. Taped it with the 10/24 tap. Put the clamp on loose so you can get it all lined up, then tighten it all down. The screw that comes with the rail fits perfectly. Once it is all tighten down it is now very solid. View attachment 582714View attachment 582718

Nice, that works perfectly!

I don't and I've blown my fill whip off of my tank valve. It's a fat fill whip, not a micro-bore hose. Thankfully it happened early in the fill cycle. I make sure that I cover my nuts and wear eye protection. I usually keep a finger on the off switch.

I have one of these:



The problem was in the cylinder itself. It went bad right before it went out of its three-month warranty, so Amazon gave me a refund and said, "Keep it." After flailing around trying to buy the right parts for this thing, I said the heck with it and just bought the whole cylinder assembly.



So if you're sure the problem is in there...

"I finally caught the squirrel, and NO, you shooting it first had nothing to do with it."

If you over tighten the small real trigger guard screw it will distort the box binding the sear, best to lightly tighten that one with a bit of thread locker.
Safety will set indepently of the sear on the rekord. If going for a light trigger, a longer thinner wire spring works better... This will maintain working pressure on the sears without the spring rate-pressure rising fast when pulling the blade.

Oh yes, that is one big advantage I forgot to mention on the V2, the USB C charging! (Which can be mitigated on the V1 by using a USB adaptor kit as mentioned above!)

Got one of these for my older Discovery VT-T because, it too was stiff. Made a big difference.

Yeah, I tried one of those and they're too big for this scope.

I think I need to figure out why this happened before replacing any parts. Need an xray to see how it looks locked up. Good to know that is the part though, just ordered some bits from ARH yesterday.

Click to expand...

I just wonder being its a press fit if the fir was out of tolerance ( large) if time and pressure of shooting , closing the bolt and recoil just started pushing it inward .

Then of you pressed / drifted it back put to its normal spot like that ARH part needs epoxy glue to seal it in place.

(I'd Never thought you have to glue that gun together ..lol)

Hung the fx chrony on the bottle and recorded 12 (one mag) 15.89 hades and 24 CPHP.
Hades averaged 899fps and 28FPE.

Crosman averaged 928fps and 27FPE.

The pressure gauge started at 280b and indicated 170b after 36 shots.

The groups were pretty good for me at 4 cups of coffee and dripping sweat in the Mississippi swampy air. The backing for my splatter target is pretty much gone so the shots tear the paper....that's my story and I'm sticking to it!

No jams with the Hades on the one mag I have fired so far today.

please tell me you were shooting inside with no fan .

I was shooting indoors and you better believe I had a fan directly on me. It was 100 degrees in there!

Ole Graycrait has a FWB100 inbound! OK, I'm kind of excited. Reseal kit is on the way from another source. The FWB 100 should "nest" comfortably with my 46m, Daisy 777s and 717s.

I believe the stock Bulldog is an unregulated airgun. It is set up to give you a few shots at high power. You could easily reduce the hammer spring tension reducing velocity and gaining shots but you'd have to try it and see how you like it. If you decrease the hammer spring too much the valve won't open so the velocity will be super low. So then you have to decrease the fill pressure and any gain in shots is reduced. If you can figure out how to restrict the transfer port it would help gain shots without making the velocity swings really high. If you really want a lower fpe airgun with more shots it may be more practical to go to a regulated gun.

You can order a pack of shim washers on eBay , Amazon or McMaster Carr. The bottle threads are m18 and the neck of a carbon fiber bottle is 30mm. So a washer size of 18 mm ID X 25MM OD Would probably work fine. .2mm thickness , or .4mm thickness. Then you use a stack of washers to make it clocked correctly. As long as the OD of the washer is less than 30mm it wont stick out past the neck of the bottle.


Those would work if you were trying to clock the bottle, but you are trying to clock the adapter. So you need to verify what size the threads on the adapter are, and order a package of shims to fit.
