N/A  Springers and Plinking

Did you add finish to the Maccari stock? Looks really nice.
Two coats Minwax Antique Oil sanded in. Thank you. I couldn't stand the factory stick.
I have another HW50 that I plan to get a Custom Stock thumb hole for. With a slimmed down forearm. And skip line checkers. No grip cap. Their fat forearm needs a bull barrel to look right but not what I'm after. I want a slimmer sporter look. I keep putting it off. Too busy and I have other projects to iron out anyway

Porous Moderator Design Tests

I meant only that I wasn't going to use TPU for printing a moderator. I have used the stuff to make a butt pad and "rubber" stopper for a salt shaker. If I don't need the properties of TPU I would use something else. The stuff prints slower and strings more than PLA or PETG. PETG strings more than PLA and overhangs and bridges are harder to do. However PETG withstands higher temperatures and better impact strength and with your data better sound deadening.

For most people I think PETG is the way to go. If you use PLA and go shooting on a hot day in the sun it may deform. You can anneal the PLA to get better temperature resistance but it will probably distort the dimensions. I had a button I printed for an oven with PLA it deform badly when I used the oven to 450F. I printed a new part and annealed it buried salt at 210F for 1 hour. After that you can put it in boiling water without it going soft! The dimension changed less than 1.5%. That would not be the case for a moderator with cones inside!

One theory is material with a higher density would better attenuate sound. If that is so then nylon or FPE may be worth a try. I'm guessing FPE would be the way to go.

Airforce  Airforce Texan .457 original

I had something similar with my Condor. The safety and/or trigger would get stuck and/or it wouldn't cock right. Eventually I removed the auto-safety metal piece (video on youtube), so now I still have a safety and it works much smoother. It is easy to bugger up the frame removing the pins, so be careful!
My wife's stock CondorSS works smooth as butter, but she won't let me shoot it. It looks like a newer design.

65 gal pickle barrels and FT/EFT targets

On the 1/2 shell ones. I guess you could use some ply and make a bottom floor.

I made easy clips to fasten the ply to that 1/2 barrel .

May make for easy cleanup of spent pellets then fighting then out of the grass (??).

Raking up pellets off the ground what got me on this stuff .. fight grass, dead grass, leaves and whatever . Then had to shift all that rake up trash to get to the pellets to put in the spent pellets can clean..lol.
