The stock loading gate, you can load 2 pellets or slugs at a time. Same as the K-1.

Yes , with stock loading gate on pistol. Same as K1.

Well, I think the facts can speak for themselves now. Hunter class has grown to be the dominate class in both numbers of contestants and ability to shoot the highest overall score in the race for the Grand Prix winners circle. Look how tight it was at the top and how all the classes were fighting for the overall win... well done!

I think we need to give some much deserved credit to our AAFTA BoG for getting it right this time... and holding off on changing again after the correct change to 16X allowance for scopes.

Thanks to the Board of Governors!

so i said i looked for a newer 618 piston and came up empty
now the video shows the piston stem broken off and the center of the stem looked very poor material wise
and if the post was pressed on front to back which would make sense, if you cut the front off then how is held together
so if you kept the post in front and epoxied the adapter on for a modern seal would that work
i concern is cutting the front stem off flush and drilling and tapping and it's ability to stay in the piston
the breech seal can be found or even made out leather but the piston seal is the problem
the normal size for the screw in those adapters is in the 4-5mm size range
maybe cut the front stem down on a lathe but keep some of the full-size part intact, i don't know

the problem i have is i don't know how the complete piston was made, how all the part interact with each other but welding them together could also be a way to do it

only if it was easy

looking a little more, is the piston rod screwed into the front of the piston
in the video at 3:22 he shows the broken off stem and the fracture is only in the center, now if you look at this picture enlarged there seems to be a gap at the front of the rod
just guessing at this point
could the piston seal been split to slid on the head when new, the cylinder would have held it together

Has anyone had any experience shooting these? I haven't seen anyone talk about using them, not on this forum or on any youtube videos.

Could fabricate some I’m sure.

Thanks. Let me get some specs and I’ll follow up in PM’s.

I need to figure out how they are attached up in there, so I don’t mess something up! I saw that the Red Wolf pins are screwed in, but I think I remember seeing glue residue on these.

My take on off hand shooting... I suck! I'm better off throwing the rifle at the target.. you all that can make off hand shots.... I'm jealous....

suburb condition
the front sight inserts will be 15.9mm if you want to add any same as FWB and even current Diana

Or, maybe an IQ above 50? But seriously they aren't all that hard if you spend $50 on enough o-rings to rebuild it 20 times and take your time with some simple tools. THE hardest thing is the regulator there are two o-rings that are a bear to install without a very special tool, the secret is, to boil them the then install, much easier.

Clearly I struck a nerve....You think a 55 IQ person could disassemble and reassemble FX impact's Ikea furniture on their own? k. Learn to take a joke.

For my birthday when I was 9 dad gave me a Sheridan Silver Streak (20 cal)
He said at the time "I want you to have a real gun not just a BB gun."

It was the only birthday party I ever had that I got to invite friends to.
Dad made a target so we could shoot in the hallway of the basement (length of the house).
That day everyone was shooting in the basement and all my buddy’s were talking about the "real gun".

I never got to run around the neighborhood toting the gun like the other guys did with their BB guns but in college that gun put rabbit in the pot.
(Used to shoot them out of my dorm room on weekends when i didn’t have a meal plan.)

I still take cottontails at least once a year with it.

Perfect, my medium height rings are at 1" so the 1/2" rail riser should put me right there.

In a previous post I was PM'd by a AGN member and accused of not respecting America because of the lower case "A" in Aoa. That lower Case "A" should have been cap'd but for Arizona not America. The Subject Line I couldn't change but I edited the rest to AoA. It's Air guns of Arizona not America. To those of you from Arizona I apologize. Was this error enough to chastise me? Bill

You could be like me?i get so much wrong" that the spell police gave up on me" Willy

Do you have one ?

First I want to apologize for the crappy pictures. I have been trying different pellets in my new used Cricket 2 tac 60 it shoots amazing and its not to picky about what you are using. H&N 18 gr. Extremes are great even Crossman premiers shot well , I had enough JSB JUMBO MONSTER 25.39 gr. to try. The distance was 35 yards both groups were 14 shots. The scope is an Arken Elp4 6x24x50.
Thanks Wolfmangeg for selling me the fantastic rifle

Looking for a used Carbon Fiber tank that already comes with a male fill assembly (prefer foster fit aka paintball style male fill assembly) all my local places fill this way and i already have a hose for it. might consider a different setup with an adapter if the price is good

Hoping it to be well within hydro test date (no expired tanks please)

100+ cu in/18~ cu ft (guppy) to 75~ cu ft (medium) size are fine

PM me or email [email protected]

Example of fill assembly style wanted:

I don't buy cars with new engine or transmission designs and for the same reason I don't want an airgun which uses 5000 pressure to get it's shot count up. If I had it I wouldn't fill it to 5000. I fill my Avenger to 250 bar, not 300 bar. A few more years with 300 bar guns may convince me that fill limit is OK but with only the Hueben using 5000 psi I don't forsee ever getting comfortable using that pressure limit. It's not just the gun that has to take it. It's the compressor, the filters, and all the lines. If anybody doesn't do the engineering right or cuts corners on the fabrication it could get ugly. I think 250 bar is OK and when my tank gets a little low, I fill down closer to 3000. Doesn't bother me to loose a few shots when it also adds some safety.

I have the Hw97 k in 177 love it. As far as weight it fine. I upland hunt with. Belgium built Browning A5 12ga 28 “ barrel

@N2 Shooter That’s actually a good idea and I have no idea why I didn’t think of it. Perhaps it’s because I have a buddy that uses a thermal scanner to hunt squirrels and I’m not a fan of this. As much as I like the sporting aspect of hunting gray squirrels, I may have etched it in my brain to not carry a thermal monocular. I guess I could start carrying my Asp Micro for retrieval on evening hunts like this. I don’t think I’ve used it in the daytime. I need to double check to see that sunlight won’t damage the unit. I’ve read of a unit that was recommended not to use in sunlight. I can’t recall which one. Thanks for the suggestion and the compliment. I honestly didn’t think many people would want to read all of that.

Another thing that I find useful on hunts that I hadn’t been carrying for about a year is a small pair of hand pruners. When I carried them a couple of seasons ago, I was all over the place. I had some cheap dollar store trimmers that work great for vines. Gotta add that to the list. I forget small things when I don’t plan my hunts. If I’m hunting nuisance animals I’m more apt to make a list and pack what’s needed. This was a much needed hunt that was a bit impromptu. I almost didn’t go, but pushed myself to get out. I’m glad I did, it just sucks the way things unfolded.

It works great, even in the daytime, as the temperature of a just expired squirrel is much warmer than ambient. A dead squirrel blends into the leaf bed super easy, which makes them really hard to spot. I've also used this to pick up on blood trails, and it was very helpful. My AGM-Taipan also has a feature which will protect it from burnout if you keep it focused too long on the sun, it will shut the unit down.

Hi Stubbers. I've purchased two 12 round Notos mags from Carm & they are nice. However, both of my emailed questions to Carm have gone unanswered.
The Hatsan Sortie mags fit loose in my .177 Jet2 as shown in that video, but they do function.
I like how the Carm mags load up.

Hoping to beat Talon Tunes, $53 to-my-door. Thanks

The overstabilization is an interesting theory. My FX Dream Tac also shoots 18.1 gr FX pellets well at 100 yards, with the short (380mm I believe) barrel. I don't know what the twist works out to be in a smooth twist X barrel, but if it is slower, relative to velocity, then all this makes sense. I have seen one of my .177 rifle spiral at close range when I cranked the speed up a lot, so now we're making sense. I knew it happened, just never gave much thought to actual cause, beyond velocity.
