Diana  Little Late Black Friday Shopping in the Texas Hill Country

Absolutely. I’m in the office today where I have a host of high quality imaging equipment. Unfortunately, the book is at the house ha ha. Should be in again later this week and will bring it with me and scan. Based on the table of contents the only page I might be missing is an exploded view.
Thank you! I'm in no hurry.

PCP Rifle  SOLD BULLDOG .357 WITH DONNY FL SUPPRESSOR and lots of AMMO

I only shot this excellent high power airgun a few times and it's been several years since the last time so I want to sell it with Donny FL EMPEROR SUPPRESSOR, scope, lots of expensive ammo and 3 magazines for a price to sell at $775.00 plus $100.00 shipping, lots of lead weight. It's extremely accurate.

Paypal is the best way for purchasing.

Air Venturi  Kid's X-mas gift sanity check

If you havent ordered already I strongly encourage you to get the wood stock. Its a totally different rifle in the wood stock, and less of a toy. And as others have suggested the hand pump is going to be a waste of money after you try it once and throw it against the wall hahaha. They work well for lower pressure pcps with smaller air cylinders like the Gamo Urban.

EDIT: Just noticed the scope mount. You might need the upgraded Saber Tactical rail since many of the Avengers are pretty crooked from the factory. Mine was so bad I couldnt mount a scope on the stock rails. The Avenger has a picatinny/11mm rail combo thing. The dovetail is a weak mount to begin with, and for sure not the way to go on the Avenger. So get some picatinny style rings. After upgrading the scope rails, the DonnyFL muzzle adapter, and the wood stock its probably better to buy a wood stock Avenge-X instead.

Bipods/Rests  SOLD Atlas V-8 Bipod

Atlas V8 Bipod in very good condition. Model as indicated in the first attached pic. This unit has seen very little use on a Edgun Leyla. Sold the gun a while back and was holding onto this for the next adventure....not going to happen anytime soon. I'm asking $225.00 shipped in CONUS. I accept payment by Cash App, Zelle, MO or check (shipped when funds clear). Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

For newbies 1st rifle

*** Youtube is your friend ***

Agree and disagree 🙂

Yeah, YouTube is great to checkout new products. I don't have direct "touchy feely" access to many things so I'm forced to study the specs and make my best guess before committing to an online purchase.

To help decide about a product I watch a couple of unboxings to see what's what then go to the technical stuff to get an idea of the performance.

I consider reviews carefully looking for any bias and watch for common threads (positive or negative). If several reviewers are impressed or concerned with a particular feature then I'm more comfortable with the information. As always, it's buyer beware.

Then there's the negative thing about YouTube - I hear about something, start researching it out of curiosity and end up convincing myself that I need that product.

I managed to avoid getting an Avenger (I have lots of .22 caliber PCPs and don't need another one), but was not so lucky with the Avenge-X... I have one on order, darn YouTube! 😉

Cheers!
One of the quality names I heard was the RWS 3400, also shown at my local LGS. Very nice wood but after reading mediocre reviews in 3-4 different gun forums, I decided to pass. It was not a Diana RWS 34.

67 yard no brainer

I really like the devastation of the polymags.. sad that I can't use them like I used to.. I bought 10 tins right before I switched barrels.. thinking about buying another impact and putting my 700mm barrel on it.. I shoot .22 polymags out of 2 of my pp700s with good accuracy so if the bird is 30 yards or closer I use that to hear that "polymag pop" 😁😁
The 25s sound like a bottle rocket pop at 25 and under on a bird. Blows sparrows apart. They're pretty obnoxious on a squirrels head too.

Diana  $20 Diana Model 48 Restoration

100% agree. Its too bad Diana doesn't manufacture the Model 52 anymore, the stock had a comb that made scoped shooting much more comfortable. And the length of pull was slightly larger, which tall guys like me appreciate.
That's why I installed a d52 stock on my 48. I installed padded cheek raiser that I bought from Hector. It made it just about perfect. I'm about 6' tall so the extra length of pull helped also.

Hold-Over or Dial? …Scope Turret Labels - DYI

I agree to a degree. Scopes are definitely better built than not long ago. Do a box test with a turn and a half travel on each knob and see how a $500 scope fairs. It may pass initially but if you do a lot of dialing they wear quickly and lose their tracking accuracy. I had the option until not long ago to shoot out to 625 yards daily off my back deck. My 22lr requied nearly 15' of dialing or holdover at 320 yards and my actual experience shows that inexpensive scopes only track well for short dialing and or a short time. Its hard to put a specific price break on scopes because some companies are over priced and under deliver. Others are a good value in some areas but compromise other areas. IMO to get a good long range scope that has good mechanisms and decent glass, $500 is bare minimum.

As far as as airguns and distances go. Airguns aren't typically shooting distances that require much more than mediocre glass. Their slow velocities however require a lot of hold over or dialing. A well built scope with ok glass like mid tier Athlons are fine for airguns. Mind you I'm not saying airgunners don't deserve top tier glass. I'm saying it's not as necessary under 200 yards as it is at 500 plus.

Thanks for clarifying — seems like we mostly agree. 👍🏼 And yes, you made the excellent observation how difficult it is to put price levels to quality levels — because of the variations between manufacturers.


And I want to congratulate you on your incredible backyard range — 625y sounds like a dream!!
How cool!! 😎


Cheers, 👍🏼

Tank Question

The frost on the outside of valve isn’t a big deal. That’s the result of adibatic cooling (a gas going from a high pressure to a low pressure). The inside of the tank does not see any frost if you have dry air in it. The frost on the outside is just from the humidity in the air condensing on the valve, then freezing.

Scott air tank for tethering

I don't tether it but I use a Scott 45 minute tank filled by my YH as my standard way to fill my guns. I like the idea of refilling to the max your gun takes from a 300 bar tank, however, to get the most from it. Once the tank pressure drops to your gun pressure you just open the valve. Simple way to use a 300 bar tank. My 45 minute tank came with the stock fireman's valve which has a spring and I think you have to push on the valve handle to be able to turn it. I just removed the spring and now it is easy to use to carefully fill my guns. Even my little 60cc 3000 psi Prod. You should be able to find one reasonably inexpensively from ebay.

Who thinks zan br100 are overhyped and arent the magic people make them to be?

After my correspondence with Zan this morning I do not foresee myself shooting any of his product. Only thing I will shoot is the melted down 56 br100 as they make their way to slugs for my slayer.

People have tried to show him scope cam footage of his product coming out of the liners etc he says they work beautifully in and the speed and everything he suggests and he has every excuse in the book as to why its the end users fault. I don't like that. We work hard and pay good money to enjoy this hobby, the end user shouldn't be your research and development.

Maybe that's why certain airgun manufacturers remain small and continue to put out a top notch product as they are thorough as can be.
