Stainless Steel barrel - how to blacken

Along this week I managed to recut the M14x1.25 into 1/2-20.
This is a 6 grove polygonal .22x500 barrel, no choke, the outer OD cut to to rifling ID from 15mm to 14mm, , made in russia.

I realized that the FX shroud internal air stripper is more important to me. I had that shroud laying around after I replace it with barrel tuner on my Impact MK2.

So my Leshiy2 looks like this ... today :) , but waiting for my prism sight (in the mail as we speak) and that red dot is going down soon.

FX  Panthera/Dynamic - Plenum/shroud combinations

I know this is an old thread.
However I wanted to say thanks for the input from those on here.
It helped me in building what I set out to do which is a one off piece in the form of a 700mm King.

I will post up a thread once I get it all done.
Did all the little pieces to do the barrel swap and got out earlier this week and shot 40 gr slugs as 960fps on a stock hammer.
And very quiet at that.

Changing AirArms “t-bar” fill port to a Foster fill port

I switched my S300 and S400 from the OLD Air Arms fitting (pre T-Bar) to the foster fitting. No complaints. Worked well. Used the Best Fittings kit.

If the T-Bar REALLY bothers you (I like it - I think it's safer and more secure and faster w/ gloves, etc.), I wouldn't hesitate. Just do it safely. There's a bleed screw right in on the valve body on the S510 that drains all the air from the cylinder in about 60 seconds. Great feature that makes it easy to do things like this.

If you need help or have questions, send me a PM. I have had S510's apart so many times I could do it blindfolded.
Thanks, the part has left England and I should have it soon.

Airgun Revisions is a dealer -



Can AGN purchase and resell Pellets?

@Stubbers I'm not salty at all. I honestly feel a bit bad for you. You blocked me because you were wrong and couldn't handle that hit to your ego. That's sad and it was childish.

Here's the deal though. I know a snake when I see one. Just like you saw my post pointing out your hypocrisy here, you saw my original comment to this post and immediately changed your tune and turned on @oledawg , all while pretending it was an original thought. Others may not see you for what you are right now but give it time. You'll show your true colors to them just like you did to me.

And in case anyone is wondering why he blocked me.... He said we should all have our private messages and even our phones monitored for th sake of security. I politely disagreed. His response was to misquote a previous comment I made followed by immediately blocking me so I couldn't respond. That isn't normal grownup behavior.

Air Arms  Air rifle stock

Wood generally looks better and weighs more and weights not necessarily a bad thing on a spring gun. Sure, it's harder to carry, but it tends to make the rifle hold steadier and make it less hold sensitive. On a spring gun the recoil comes from the piston slamming forward to compress the air and that means you experience the recoil before the pellet leaves the barrel, so anything that's different about the way you hold the gun will cause it to shoot to a slightly different point of impact. This is called hold sensitivity. A very powerful and lightweight airgun will tend to be very hold sensitive, while with a low powered and heavy airgun you might not notice any difference at all. A hold sensitive gun will be more difficult to shoot accurately. The gun is often capable of good accuracy, but holding it in just the right way every time makes it harder to achieve.

Plastic and wood both come in very different grades. Really expensive wood stocks tend to be both beautiful and elaborate, but not necessarily any more functional than a cheaper wood stock. Really cheap wood stocks tend to be made out of ugly wood and covered in shellac to make them look darker and if you strip that off you might find filler underneath. That's what you might find on a low end Chinese gun. High end synthetic stocks often have rails or tactical features built in and often come with camouflage finishes. They feel as solid as a wood stock and usually weigh as much and they are much less affected by heat or humidity than wood. Really cheap synthetic stocks tend to be very lightweight and feel like the cheap plastic they are. For a low end gun I'd prefer wood over plastic. There's also a vast middle ground of ordinary stocks that aren't necessarily ugly or made of cheap plastic.

Benjamin  Huma Regulator on Benjamin Marauder field and Target

it is the volume of the air pocket that has went through the regulator and is waiting for the valve to open to push the pellet out the barrel , and when the pressure drops in that given space from firing a shot the regulator opens and replenishes that pocket of air with "hopefully the same pressure " each time you take a shot ! too much plenum and your reg may not cycle consistently per shot , not enough plenum and a lack of power ,
Okay thank you. That clarifies it well
