Is that the right order to connect the filters? Compressor-->desiccant filter-->coalescing filter-->dive bottle/gun cylinder.

I thought to put the coalescing filter first, to get more/ longer use out of the desiccant.

I was not talking about the order of using filters, but of the choice of only two paths that would be certain to prevent condensation from occurring in reservoirs: either 1) a desiccant filter to adsorb the water vapor, or 2) a chiller to cool the air charge below ambient with a coalescing filter as part of the set up.

That said, using a coalescing filter before a desiccant it a very good idea, because it should help it last longer - of course the trade off is more "wasted" compressed air that evenetually gets vented rather than used. An even better idea would be to put that coalescing filter in a bucket of ice water to further cool and condense even more water vapor into liquid before the desiccant does its thing . . .

@Hamdanali89 : You should not be posting a slug press in this thread about pellet swaging. 1) it's completely off-topic to the pellet die application and 2) you're obviously hawking equipment for some reason. Go start your own thread if you are compelled to spam the forum.

He isn't hawking equipment. Been following precision slug press and this guy is just a customer giving his experience and feedback with the press. He posted on the wrong thread probably because he saw the name "Thor" and was just giving a comparison and feedback with the press. His English might be rough so cut him some slack

Thanks all! I’ll give those a shot

Yes that foster has a small screw with an O ring. If the screw is too tight it smashes the O ring and it won’t take air. If you unscrew the assy from the end of the air tube with the foster still attached, you’ll see the very small screw. Back it out very slightly. It may take several tries to get it right. Of course degass the rifle before unscrewing the end of the tube.

I don't know how much I spent, but I would guess about $700-$800 for everything. At the time I purchased the Yong Heng, the availability of other compressors was much more limited. I don't remember when the Tuxing 032 was released, but I know that when I was looking to buy the compressor initially, it didn't come up in any of my searches.

Supply chain shortages have been a major bummer…

So apparently I posted this in the wrong place. Anyhoo, I answered my own question. They shoot just fine, forward or backwards.

Is that the 110 or 220 version ?

Greetings to all, I am new to the forum. I appreciate the opportunity to share with you. My name is Javier. I currently have the Airforce Talon P and the SS. Excellent rifles in my collection are #1. I have tested them at good distances and I assure you of their effectiveness. .

Hatsan has no quality. They are really crap.

And yet I have several that just work as designed. Pellets in, pellets out, pests and targets dead. I did break a few things modifying them but that isn't Hatsan's fault. Amazing how after 2-3 years I haven't seen the issues whined so much about. But then most of the whiners have never owned a Hatsan or pretty much any rifle, AEA, they whine about.

Where they do fail is HEAVY.

Thanks for sharing your trials with us! That's more information and certainly more pictures of the internals than I've been able to find so far. Thanks again!

In CO2 tanks a 'siphon tube' is inserted into the valve to pull the liquid CO2 from the bottom of the tank. Since these tanks are used upside down, it would probably have the opposite effect. To keep the firefighter from breathing in any possible moisture?

You're probably talking about a dip tube to goes to the very bottom, like in a can of spray paint, right? The tube in these things only goes a couple inches, like in a propane valve. But yeah the reason is probably is still the same, to keep them from breathing moisture.

I found this video useful.

Has anyone tried the new Warne skyline pro? The minimum height is quite appealing to me. I'm wondering how it compares against an Accu-tac?

I’ll pass something along that you guys might find interesting if you don’t already know it. It may help as you try to stay out ahead of a groundhog population. I’ve hunted a couple farms for groundhogs for over 40 years. A field that has 10 mounds, a groundhogs house, for two years or so gets all the groundhogs cleaned off and mounds flattened. Eventually groundhogs will find that mound, even if we can’t tell where it was and reopen it. So once they take up residence, even under a shed, rouge grundys will eventually find the abandoned groundhog house and set up shop.

True true.

Have seen the very same thing myself over the course of 25 years in my back hayfield.
No need to leave seed stock, they shall return.

I use the ROCKSHOX 600 PSI pump Schrader adapter with teflon tape to pump up my HW90/.25. Works great, adapter cost 9 bucks:

Use small metal rod to tap out pressure. For this unit, using either old DIANA MAGNUM 20grain or H&N FTT 20.06grain, i get 19.0FPE from factory setting with 60LBS cocking effort, ~18.51 FPE=20BAR with easy 40LBS cocking effort; 12.5FPE=14/15BAR with very easy cocking. BAR measurements using Rockshox High Pressure Fork & Shock Pump-

Cocking force measured with bathroom spring scale. The brass AOA Quick connect male to Schrader valve only works if I take off stock, because our Benjamin hand pump's female QC head is to big, causing interference with stock.

Better scope mount for the 3120

Airgun Al · Jun 29, 2024

Thanks for the info.
Ive mentioned this several times before, here at AGN.
I suspect that many web surfers in United States, have no idea that they are automatically being re-directed to a different web site.
In my opinion, the arken U.S. web site its a dis-service, and is NOT Arkens main web site.

Arkens latest and greatest products, are not even mentioned on the US site.
Its almost as if Arken has been hijacked ???
I choose to take my United States buisness elsewhere, as a result.
I really like Arkens products, but Im not a fan of whomever the mystery person is, that runs the Arken US web site.

Moral of the story:
If "US" is in the URL, then you are NOT on Arkens main web site, and your being short changed on the latest products and information!

Every 48/52 that I ever shot was way over sprung. A proper tune is a necessity before considering any stock alterations.

rootdude · Jun 29, 2024

Thanks kindly for the suggestion - I’ll read some reviews and see if it fits the bill.

Thanks,
Mark

Thanks @coastal drifter
As much as I really like my V-1, the need to choose a velocity profile is vey inconvenient (for me)

Are you happy with the V-2?
Any issues?

Edward

I have never selected a velocity range in mine and been using it for over a year ??

Hey Guys,
I wanted to share with you something that happened to me , now, a month ago.
While filling my Crown mk2, I had "attached" my quick fill from my cf bottle to the filling port on the Crown, making "sure" that it was fully locked, so I thought. I started building pressure in the micro bore hose. At about 2500 psi , the qd came loose. Luckily, I make it a habit not to stand over the filling port while filling, just in case . Well, the hose did not hit me but the sound sure did.
I'm not sure what the malfunction was because the l locking sleeve was tight, so i thought. SOB, that was loud.
For a month now, my right ear has been plugged and it sounds like ocean breakers in that ear. I haven't sought medical help yet but in another month , I will.
Won't hurt to take time to put in foam ear protection while filling. I am.
Hopefully, this sharing will make you think about ear protection while filling your pcp. As much as I love the beach, it's never ending noise can get tiring.
Thanks for reading,
Mike

Things that will help
#1 ice the affected area/ear. 15 minutes at a time for a few times a day - this will calm the injured tissues. It works wonders!
#2 rub peppermint oil around the ear and eustachian tube descending from behind your ear… towards your throat- it’s a vasodilator.
