    SHOT SHOW 2022

    I just cancelled. Exhibitors are pulling out or sending a skeleton crew or even no crew at all, just an exhibit. From what I can gather, exhibitors would like to cancel but NSSF (who puts on the show) insists that it go on. Most have too much invested to pull out altogether. Masks are...

    PCP Long Term Storage?

    Agree with nervoustrig, seal quality and hardness are hugely important. When pcp’s were first becoming widely available, the common wisdom was to store longer-term at about 1/2 pressure. Of course, seals weren’t as good then as they are now. But might be an option for you.

    How well do High end PCP hold value

    Correct, simple answer is no; buy new and you’ll likely have to sell for significantly less than it cost you. Better to buy one cheap off another guy who has bought new and now wants to move on.

    JSB Die release agent!

    I know jsb does regular inspections, but look like they missed this one. Now, if nobody ever tells their supplier, how will they know? You would be doing them a favor. May be a bad batch out there that they could retrieve before they get a reputation about it.

    Covid 19 raped my airgun

    To speak of rape and then use your daughter in an attempt at humor is hard to take for those persons whose daughter has actually been raped. It’s not a funny word, sorry. Crying in the shower? Could have made fun of coronavirus without taking us there.

    New pellets from Qiang Yuan

    Update: finally got a chance to shoot the domed and streamline pellets through my Marauder. Good. But not quite as good as JSB 8.44gr or even the crosman premier heavy's.

    New pellets from Qiang Yuan

    I got some samples from the QYS booth at the Shot Show. The wadcutters are offered in match and 'olympic' grades; Predator Intl., who imports jsb's, imports these wadcutters primarily for 10M competition, so they should be available through retail outlets. The other two mentioned above...

    Removing stuck air reservoir.

    Well, that rifle normally requires a 1/4 to 1/2 turn unscrew of the bottle, then cock and shoot a few times to release pressure, so you can then unscrew the bottle. If you can’t get the initial half unscrew, try shooting the air out until the bottle is totally empty. That would relieve any...

    Last Shot Show 2020 post

    When people post where they are going to be at Shot Show, I try to stop by and say hello. So here's a shout out to Steve M, who posts here as steve123, at the Athlon optics booth; Turns out Steve has started advising Athlon on making scopes that are more suitable for airgunners, and they are...
