    Other thoughts on "tactical" vs traditional rifle

    I'm not walking around thinking that 'tactical' means I'm ready for combat. But I do like the look. The airgun world has decided that airguns with lots of anodized aluminum and synthetic instead of wood. and lots of rails and adjustments, are called 'tactical'. So 'tactical' it is.

    FX Dreamline - second hand heavy mystery.

    Wasn't me. I keep the Dreamlines that I break. Loose nut between the seat and the gun, I get it.

    Homebrew FX Chrony display

    Sometimes, folks that are maintaining free software libraries don't feel particularly compelled to maintain backwards compatibility. Especially across major revisions. Even big companies (looking at you, Oracle) sometime make changes that break backward compatibility. "We never liked...

    FX Funny thing with this Chrono

    My cheap Chinese chrony went crazy a while back, giving readings like 490 m/sec. That's well past the speed of sound, and you'd notice that supersonic sound barrier crack if it was correct. Could just be time for another one.

    FX Dreamline - second hand heavy mystery.

    This on reddit: While shooting one day, she jammed on me. I removed the barrel and cleared the two pellets, unfortunately it dry fired without the magazine or barrel on by accident. I reassembled it and tried to fire and it just clicked, cleared the pellet again and it still clicked. So I...

    New to PCP air guns, wish I came to this site sooner!

    Man's best friend, and man's second-best friend. You folks fight over which is which, And despite what that photoshopped picture wants you to believe, I bet "easy to carry" might be stretching it a bit.

    new guy to airguns

    Shimming up scopes is pretty common with airguns. 20 MOA rails, or a pop can and a pair of scissors, are almost a requirement.

    Is FFP or SFP More Frequent? — At what Magnification Range?

    Too bad about the tariffs, that might have been a big business opportunity. "Fixed ffp! FFFP!"

    Anyone else in your house as into AG as you?

    Yes, but it short-circuits any arguments about, "Why do you have to buy x?"

    Anyone else in your house as into AG as you?

    My wife isn't the least bit interested, except in what the hobby does to the bank account. I might pester my daughter about it again, but I don't think she's interested. Her long-term boyfriend doesn't seem to be interested. I have two brothers in town, but they don't care either. They both...
