So Peri supervises and does overwatch, while you‘re brush hogging and bush whacking? That Is one smart pup, glad to see the passion returning to your shooting. Takes a lot of effort to maintain such a sweet range… So who drove the remaining 3 hours? Peri?

I’ve been thinking of a new air gun since I only have 2. I’m imagining prices of most of the foreign made guns will go up at our USA suppliers run out of existing stock.
A good reason to buy a new aigun , just not sure which one.

I too would like to see some stats.

Well, My friend and I took the gun apart and after observation and experimentation, it appears most likely that the ADL feature is malfunctioning and in effect, tells the gun it's already loaded. Thereby keeping the magazine from rotating. I've reached out to Marek at Taipan to send any info on the ADL feature so we can adjust/repair it to normal operation.

Set up the new courses last week, the off hand lane is almost 30 degrees...that is down from the previous cliff mounted target angle.

It's been awhile since I actually made a video. Last night my neighbor who's flowers are being ravaged called and told me to go out on my deck and take out a culprit.

Great shot & video. We just put $$$ in plants this past week before some major rain hit ( again) . No sense spraying repellent as the rain washes it off. So before the plants dried a rabbit visited & "sampled " several of them ! My Queen has suggested strongly to make use of the the "lead projectile propulsion devices" to HER ( & MY ) advantage. Oh man , Traps, fencing , more spray & shaker bottles of repellent, then maybe,,,

Welcome. Great folks here & all are willing to help. Stop over sometime and shoot my HW95 as we are only 3865 miles apart!

Ahhh that’s not too farmy brother actually lives in the States (Iowa) so maybe when I’m visiting him sometime I will give you a shout.

So, you do install small set screw there to tighten it up, correct? I don't see one in there, so I guess I have to go find one at the hardware store I guess

Click to expand...

It’s like a M3x4mm. And like I said, don’t tighten it up. Just snug. The gun isn’t a Harley.

Has anyone found an alternative multi pump, pistol as powerful as the Alecto/zoraki?

No. But I've only wished for something like that for sixty years.

Ain't that the truth?

And if you haven't yet tried weed trimming with an airgun, you owe it to yourself to try it out! Something about it is so very satisfying.

This one is fun because with a short burst of auto it will take out woody plants up to a half inch. Mark

in my old heavy silver hampster from Raw the set screw and insert are 5/16-18 coarse. Martin may have used different ones at different times. Just make sure your set screw and insert are the same size.

Does anyone have any insight on when the Aveng X .177 kit will be available? It's been on backorder for a long time.

​

I thought for sure some one with there machine shop would make a better pellet probe for the Notos 22??? I put some heat shrink tube on mine and it helps a lot with the pellet sliding in the barrel,,,,
Has anyone put a bevel on the barrel, Where the edges are not so sharp??? Seems like that might fix the problem of the pellet twisting ?? I will have a spare notos barrel in a week or two , I might try it .....
Everybody warned me about the Notos money pit , But its fun to work on and the big key is LEARN...Funny you buy a 2000 or well over gun and a few videos come out .
This cheap 250 dollar gun and there is 500 videos showing you how to tear it down build it up and screw it up just crazy...Lots of after market parts , Some just took the China hit.
Mike

Thanks everyone

Burris Signature Rings can give you up to 40 moa, that works well for my 75s.

Pumped to finally upgrade to the new Alpex scope! Been eyeing it off for a while—can’t wait to get it set up and see what it can do!

My old Alpex weighed more than the gun. After hearing about the light weight of the new one I think it will be a game changer.

No clue if this is the proper place to post this, but just wanted to give people a heads up that (at the time of posting this), that there are 4 Edgun Leshiy Classics posted for sale at Airguns of Arizona. All varying prices and 3 in "Good" condition 1 in "Very Good" condition, meaning scratches/markings on them BUT do not let that deter you if you've always wanted one. Edguns, especially the Classic are built to last and nicks and dings wont stop that.

My Classic that I have recently bought off a member here, shoots like a dream and the lightest trigger on an airgun I've ever fired thus far

@triplem
You’re good. The “General discussion” forum would’ve probably been a better spot for members to see this sort of post, but either way some will be happy to see it.

Unbox it yet?

Do these have unlimited eye relief like other red dots? Can't find that information.

Click to expand...

I watched a video & read some brief reviews. Not sure if it's unlimited eye relief but it clearly can be used set well forward on ARs, SCARs, etc.

Does anyone have photos of the compressor with the covers off?

Housings often appear to be similar or identical to me, but when the internals are revealed, they are completely different.


For example, The New Warrior or Benjamin appeared to closely resemble the GX CS4, but are completely different compressors.

Click to expand...

Here's an example: Is this compressor the same as a Tuxing?

Opinions....

I will say this, my impact was capable of this with pellets right out of the box to 75 meters with 18gr jsb, I've spent a lot of time, effort and money to make it do this at 74 fpe with slugs, and just as much time work and money to make it shoot 1 pellet well again along with slugs.

The raw is untouched and does that good with h&n 23gr slugs I tested and mrd pellets.

I'm of the opinion that Martin has curated his own world of perfection which is why there's no diagrams or factory supplied oring lists, or externally adjustable regulators.

FX seems to be good parts (generally) and potential in a box, all externally tuneable. Which I love as a perpetual tinkerer. If that's not your bag and you're going to drop 2200 usd for a gun, I might point you towards a raw, specifically one from Martin (rapid air weapons) before an airforce gun (rapid air worx). His pricing on everything except orings seems to be really fair, and he will tune, repair or modify them how you want for a reasonable fee.

Perfect for Airgun Marksmen – 1/8" Biathlon Targets Built for Precision​

If you shoot airguns and want to train like a pro, our 1/8" Biathlon Targets are could be exactly what you’ve been looking for.

Tailored for Airgun Use
These aren’t overbuilt rimfire plates or flimsy gimmicks – the 1/8" thickness is just right for air rifles and pistols. You’ll get a loud ping and smooth paddle action without stressing your equipment or your budget. Whether you're plinking in the backyard or running drills, these targets are made to perform shot after shot.

American Steel You Can Count On​

Crafted from genuine AR400 steel, these targets are laser-cut right here in the USA. That means consistent quality, no shortcuts, and the kind of rugged durability you'd expect from a veteran-owned business that actually stands behind what it sells.

Easy to Set Up – Easier to Love​

These targets mount cleanly to standard ¾” EMT conduit (readily available at any hardware store). We include all the spacers and mounting clips so you can get up and running in minutes. The smart design lets you focus on shooting, not fiddling with gear.

Train Like a Biathlon Pro​

From beginners to seasoned airgun competitors, these targets are a hit. The smaller paddle sizes let you increase difficulty as your skills improve, while the solid steel construction ensures they’ll be around for the long haul.

Immediate Feedback = Faster Skill Building​

Every successful hit rewards you with instant visual and audible confirmation. That makes practice fun, motivating, and productive.

NOTE: I have currently priced the 3/16" versions of these targets a full 40% OFF​

Be aware that the sound and movement with the 3/16" will not be as apparent as it will be
with the lighter 1/8th inch.

​

Get Your Biathlon Targets Here​

From what I understand there's not much benefit from a pin probe in this platform.
Slugs don't center very well in the factory mags and the pin probe can make loading not as smooth. I think they get cocked a little going into the chamber.

If only fosters were truly standardized! Different manufacturers seem to apply different tolerances. Sometimes it's the o-ring, sometimes it's the way the fosters seal (or won't seal). I have a zip lock bag full of all kinds of fosters & o-rings for those occasions. I can always get SOMETHING to work.
Where exactly is yours leaking from? Threads? Foster fitting?
