    Warning ! Hikmicro Alpex 4k lite from Huma

    Well it’s too late for me. Unless Huma or HIKMICRO come out with instructions for use in the USA I wouldn’t buy. I dont know what xapk is . It might be costly for someone to take the risk and buying from Europe at this time, paying import duty and then have to ship back. I did have this scope...

    Taipan Broke the $2K barrier

    Seems I always gravitate to the longer barrels whether I can make use of it or not. Tony was leaning to the shorter for my use ( backyard ) but I couldn’t do it.

    Taipan Broke the $2K barrier

    Just called Tony at Talon Air. A Slash 22 tactical will be on the way. Till now a Karma red panda used at $1700 was my max. Thumbs up to Tony. What a selection of top guns in this price range, but I figured I didn’t need another side lever. Ok this is my new max I Swear !

    FX Beatiful FORM walnut riflestock for FX DRS

    I like it very much, but no matter what it’s not as steady as a benchrest.

    FX Beatiful FORM walnut riflestock for FX DRS

    I have the carbon fiber air tube in 500mm, wanted a 700mm but wasn’t available. Bought from Europe Airguns in Spain. Also wanted a form stock but they weren’t shipping to USA as of 2 months ago.

    STO Falx

    Very much, it is the quietist I have. I bought a sarissa for my red panda 22. It has different threads. For some reason it’s still loud.

    Optic suggestion

    The vector veyrons are good for the money. I have three 3-12, 4-16, and 6-24. All are less than $250ish. Also have Athlons, Arkens, a 6-48 Vector Continental, Hawk sidewinder 8-32, GPO compact, plus a few more. Most expensive is an Athlon 15-60 at $1000. They all work fine for my needs. First...

    new to PCP and need a portable compressor

    Filling a guns tank with a bottle is just about as instantaneous as you can get. I started with a amzon $200 little compressor but it quickly developed into p.i.t.a.

    new to PCP and need a portable compressor

    Here’s my infrequently used GXcs4i and the Tuxing Twin 042 both with extra cooling and on dollies to roll around the cellar. The GX will fill a 9 liter bottle from completely empty in 5 hours of constant running vs about an hour for the Tuxing twin. Thats why the GX has been relegated to backup...

    new to PCP and need a portable compressor

    I have 2 of the compressors mentioned. The GX cs4i and a Tuxing Twin (042). I rarely use the GX lately. The much cheaper ($360 when I bought from Aliexpress) Tuxing is sooo much faster. I have rigged up extra liquid cooling to both. Started with a small $200 Amazon cheapie. It fills guns but I...

    Hikmicro Alpex 4K

    PayPal just resolved case, I got the original purchase price with shipping back. So I’m only out $210 from import duty and shipping back. I’d say I didn’t do to good haaa!

    N/A What air pistol do you use for pest control?

    ya got me thinking… when I got the Rexi last November Im sure I knew the trajectory. Since then it’s just been perfect and if I hit what I’m aiming at I’m happy and if I miss no big deal. I just remembered I’ve got a pic of the trajectory table. Truth is I haven’t used lately and just aim spot...
