Umarex  Umarex Zelos, how are we feeling?

I'm interested to hear more about this design. Is there a design file for the shroud insert? Are you still considering selling the now shortened Notos? I think that shorty would be a blast for kids with the stock attached! I'm a couple days from being able to send/receive PMs (still too new), but if you're willing to post more about this in the thread, I'd appreciate it. And thanks for sharing!
I sent you a PM, hopefully you can reply and we can talk and share.

American Air Arms  Crosman Model 160 .22 cal

I made 11mm dovetail bases for a Variant 3 160. The front base held on by the barrel screw. Rear is epoxied on. It's been on there 30 years even though it's gone out in the field.. But I'm not clumsy with my guns.
I think I have 2 more with that Mossberg sight. And a Variant 2 with slide safety and convertible peepsight.
Neat guns

N/A  Brass barrels

what is hard about machining titanium? as I remember it was soft similar to aluminum.. but I remember it is hard to weld.
Mark

Titanium is extremely poor at transferring heat, so the heat builds up very quickly and will ruin the part or the tooling unless lots of coolant is used and proper feed rates. It is harder and tougher than some steels, but not quite as hard/tough as many stainless steels. It is in a different universe than aluminum when it comes to machining. Aluminum is among the easiest metal to machine and can even be cut with wood working tools in a pinch.

And Ti is indeed also quite difficult to weld since it becomes very reactive when heated to welding temps, and also due to the poor heat dissipation mentioned above. It often needs to be welded inside of purge gas chambers, but it can be done normally if great care is taken to shield the weld areas on both sides.

Sekhmet M8X1

FX are 1/8 bspp or G 1/8 The Orc air is 1/8 bspp. Unless they began making the M8 as well.
Old thread but happened to see it. Orcair does make an M8...at least now not sure when this thread was fresh. It's on Airguns of Arizonas website for under 50$ I think. It's cr2032 operated tho. Honestly I could care less about that versus rechargeable but I read somewhere that you have to degas the gun and pull the gauge off to change the battery....??...and I'm not into all that but that may be false also I don't know

FX Impact Barrel Touch Up

Over time the cocking block on my FX Impact M3 has worn off the black finish on my barrel. Also, pulling my barrel in and out of the gun has left superficial marks and scratches. Is there a way to touch up or refinish the barrel back to it’s glossy black glory? I’ve thought about using a bluing chemical like Brownell’s 44/40 or Birchwood Super Blue, but I believe those only work on carbon steel. I’m pretty sure the FX Impact barrels are stainless steel.

Let me know if you have any suggestions, thanks

FX .25 cal 700mm “Superior Slug” liner

Eventually I will…. But I have a suspicion this mistake might be a very good pellet liner. So I’ll try it out with pellets before I work to get it refunded.
Maybe you ought to try a round ball out of that liner. Maybe FX had a run of BB gun liners and you got one.
