    Benjamin Kratos Velocity Change

    I played around with the gun yesterday. I discovered a small hole under the action in front of the trigger. This appeared to be a vent hole for the hammer. If I put my finger over this hole and fired the gun the velocity would drop. A interesting note is I really didn't feel much air...

    Benjamin Kratos Velocity Change

    Thanks guy your suggestion makes sense. I'll try putting some light lube in the hammer bore and see what the results are

    Benjamin Kratos Velocity Change

    I need some help with my Benjamin Krato 22 cal. I haven't shot the gun since last December. I had the velocity set to 870 fps with my chronograph. The velocity has stayed at 870 since I adjusted the gun when new a year and half ago until now. The power adjuster is set all the way open. I...

    Ha I had a tablet a few years ago that was soooo aggravatingly slow I sentenced it to death by PCP firing squad! It was such a gratifying feeling destroying that damn thing!

    Hatsan reliability

    I've had great success dealing with Hatsan. I have a FlashPup in .22 cal. I needed a replacement barrel the gun would not group consistently with any pellet I tried. I got on their website and filled out the service request form then there is another email I sent describing my issue. I told...

    Tuning Hatsan Bullboss will not cock.

    I agree with Scotty1. I had 2 different Hatsan Bullbosses. I experienced the same issues with my gun. Often it felt like the cocking handle needed to go back just a tiny bit farther for the gun to cock. I would play around with the trigger adjustment and that would seem to solve the issue...

    Tuning UPS

    Ha, I created online account with UPS to better control my shipments. Last few times I specified I wanted my package (expensive air guns from Pyramyd Air) left on the back porch. Sure enough UPS left them to sit on the front porch in plain sight for 6 hrs while I was at work. The distance is...

    Tuning New Kratos will not fill

    What a shame to be subjected to something like this! If someone is new to PCPs this has to be a bad experience. Enough so that it could turn them away from this great hobby. Crosman/Benjamin should at least put some air in each gun to prevent this repetitive problem. Would that be too much...

    Introducing the Umarex Gauntlet 2

    Looks like the gun was improved in many ways. The only thing I see that I don't care for is the length. A gun this long is a deal breaker for me...

    Tuning Akela wandering POI/accuracy issues

    My Kratos would group great at 50 yards then it would shoot random fliers always 1.5" low. I finally inspected closely with my bore scope and there was a build up of lead in the choke area. With out the bore scope I would have never noticed it. A bronze brush and bore cleaner solved the...
