    Decent Inexpensive High Pressure Compressors

    No moisture filter is available for the G9 hand pump I currently use. The rifle is a BSA Buccaneer SE (which I understand is pretty much the same as a Gamo Coyote).

    Decent Inexpensive High Pressure Compressors

    No field work currently; however, that may change in the future since totalitarianism is taking over this country and I may have to survive off of squirrel meat and such. But, if that ever happens, I still have the hand pump which will also keep me in shape when on a squirrel and bird meat...

    Decent Inexpensive High Pressure Compressors

    Any suggestions as to an inexpensive reliable high pressure compressor (under $300) - if such an animal exists? I have seen a few on Amazon between $220 and $275, but don't know what kind of quality they are. I currently have an Air Venturi G9 hand pump which I can deal with OK, but don't want...

    Tuning Suggestions to Reduce Moisture with Hand Pumping

    Is the Maxima motorcycle chain wax petroleum or synthetic based? Being a "wax", I would assume it is rather thick - kind of like grease. I understand that petroleum based lubes will damage O-rings and seals. For some reason, the manual on the Buccaneer says NOT to use silicone lubricants...

    Tuning Suggestions to Reduce Moisture with Hand Pumping

    From the looks of the Alkin W31, it would set me back 3 or more house payments.

    Tuning Suggestions to Reduce Moisture with Hand Pumping

    Thought those filters were mainly for dust and dirt. I had thought about taking that out and putting a small desiccant pack in there instead (like the ones in supplement bottles), but I don't know how that would affect the pumping pressure.

    Tuning Suggestions to Reduce Moisture with Hand Pumping

    According to various PCP supply sources, that add-on is only for other models of the Air Venturi - not the G9.

    Tuning Suggestions to Reduce Moisture with Hand Pumping

    Currently got a BSA Buccaneer SE .22 a few months ago that I pump with an Air Venturi G9 hand pump. From what I understand, there are no desiccant packs/add-ons that will fit this pump. I am concerned about getting too much moisture in the cylinder that will eventually lead to it rusting out -...

    Rotary Magazine Spring Wear

    Regarding 10-shot rotary style magazines for PCP's, is it best NOT to have any rounds in them for a certain amount of time so that the internal spring does not weaken? I have a Gamo-type that is used for the .22 BSA Buccaneer and am wondering if I should leave the magazine without any rounds...

    Wood Stock Prep

    Sorry to seem ignorant, but what is "inletting"? Is that the inside where the metal parts rest? I did the water drop test on the outside and it did NOT soak in. Thanks

    Wood Stock Prep

    No alteration intended other than just something that may add more protection against wear and tear in the field. Otherwise, I could just keep the rubberized stock that this one was replacing for the dirty work...
