    Slug lube question... yeah, yeah I know...

    No pellets in my air rifle, I only shoot slugs. Thank you for the info though. As much fun as this one is there are likely more in my future and thats good to know about graphite on pellets.

    FX Panthera first shot low FPS

    Have a 22 Panthera 700. Exact same issue. Life has kept me busy enough that I have not had a chance to tinker with it as of yet.

    It will do no good as you agreed to the terms of service and its a binding contract

    New tank/range bag review.

    I own a diamond tank bag as well. Pricey yes, but I have not pulled a seam, broken a zipper or had any other failure at all. Worth it easily imo.

    Left PayPal a year ago,.....it sure has its drawbacks.

    If anyone reads the terms of agreement and still signs up, well thats on them. Its fine until you have a transaction that loosely defies their terms... then its a bloody nightmare.

    I can’t believe I waited so long to try these!

    Is this for pellets only or will slugs work in the DTM loaders?

    Here is a reference chart illustrating the difference in thread classifications for those that may still be curious.

    Somehow we are on exactly the same page but different frequencies. I have been cutting threads of all classes and most other types of machining operations for 40+ years and am intimately aware of the differences. My replies were possibly to concrete in logic. I saw no reason to go into that...

    We are of the same era, I have just made it a mission to embrace technology since its here to stay and to that end learn more effective ways to communicate than I did as an E-8 in the USMC

    "Google is your friend" is never a helpful reply.... at the very least its passive aggressive. Forums are by nature, as we all profess to believe, for the exchange of information and ideas. This means threads and subjects are going to get cussed and discussed over and over. It is far more...

    Pedantic at best. Thread pitch gauges are neither difficult to come by nor expensive for quality accuracy. Class 3 is in fact a spec and an industry accepted as an descriptor. Especially when replying to an OP to try and make a useful and direct correlation to the OP's question. There was no...

    While true the industry standards are as listed for SAE sizes. The op was asking specifically about thread pitches in relation to air rifles vs firearms. My post was to address his specific query and not be pedantic... Of my many many class 3 devices I have absolutely none that use any thread...
