    Niksan Regulating a Niksan Ozark

    aren't these basically just rebadged Krals? Same turkish factory, at least that's my understanding.

    N/A Who manufactures the best PCP Air Rifle in Turkey?

    can you add a fifth option for "None"? I've owned both Hatsan and Kral, and both needed work out of the box, and after extensive tuning neither performed as well as other rifles in the same price range (Benjamin/Crossman). Just the sheer number of Hatsan refurbs you constantly see for sale...

    In your Uragan 25 cal what NSA slugs...

    Of the NSA slugs I've tried in my gen 1 (with the factory reg setting), it likes the 29.5gr .249 best. I also tried 33.5gr .250 and the 26.8gr .249, and they did not group as tight for me. Its favorite slug is the H&N 28gn .250 slugs. At 50 yards it's a single hole.

    Vevor portable compressor not building pressure

    Wanted to see if anyone had experience troubleshooting Vevor portable compressor issues (like the one below)? Mine runs as normal, but won't build pressure. This happened a few months ago, and I cleaned the check valve and that fixed the issue. I've tried that again, as well as replacing the...

    Pyramid has refurb Eagle Claws for $499, which is tempting me to get one.

    I don't know much about these AEA semi-autos, I just know I can't stop shooting them...

    I've read a lot of good reviews for the .25 AEA semis. However, I would like one in .22, and it seems that caliber has a lot of problems for some reason. Anyone have a .22 semi that works well?

    Shipping airguns.

    I shipped an air rifle about a year ago using FedEx ground. They had the cheapest price, and got it across the country in about 4 days. I typically use FedEx ground for large items like mountain bikes, etc. and never had an issue.

    Uragan (updates as I learn the gun)

    I should have taken pictures while I had it apart, but was too focused on getting everything right. This thread gives a good explanation for removing the barrel: link Once the barrel is out, you need to unscrew the air hose with a 14mm wrench to get to the screw. This was the most difficult...

    Uragan (updates as I learn the gun)

    Just to follow up, I was able to resolve the issue with my Uragan. When I purchased it from Krale, I knew I might have to address any issues myself, just didn't expect to have to do so after only 2 months of owning the gun. But I'm glad I did the work myself, the guns are well built and...

    Uragan (updates as I learn the gun)

    I've had my Uragan for ~2 months, and it's been great. Until now. After filling, I purged the line and removed the probe, and all of the air began leaking out of the fill port. I tried refilling and quickly purging several more times, hoping that might fix the problem, but it did not. I...
