    Reliable compressor & customer service

    Buy an omega compressor from Air Gun Of Arizona. Consumer service is exactly what you would want. My omega has been trouble free for 4 years. I shoot a lot, 10,000 pellets a year isn’t a uncommon occurrence. I use it to fuel a scuba tank, and I run a inline descent filter but it always stays...

    Other Multi pump rifle opinions

    Pump guns and PCP’s have the exact same are delivery. It is high pressure air released by a valve. The only difference is how the high pressure air is achieved, one has a multiple shot tank of air, the other doesn’t. So them basically being the same platform how would that result in a PCP...

    Other Multi pump rifle opinions

    Any modern pump gun can shoot 50 yards. My .22 Seneca Dragonfly mark 2 makes 16 ftlbs with a Crosman premier pellets. It’s definitely minute of Soda can at that range

    N/A Favorite PCP

    Easy, Benjamin Marauder gen 2 .25 cal. Mine loves JSB king Heavy but it’s only pushing 750 fps, however I can hit anything I aim it at from 10 to 100 yards. Obviously it’s not a bench rest champ but it can knock the hell out of tin cans, grapefruits, starlings. Basically it does whatever I...

    N/A Lube or no lube on o-rings??

    Thank you and that’s exactly what I was thinking. I got a tube of silicone grease and have greased all the orings I have replaced in the past but it never hurts to hear what others do. Thank you

    What’s the most efficient PCP hand pump today?

    Hello, I have a hill pump and it works good for what it is. People say they rebuild easy and I can tell you even though it’s a really good hand pump, it’s not very fun to use. I upgraded from the hill hand pump to a gx-cs3. And I can tell you that was a very nice upgrade. If you are not...

    N/A Lube or no lube on o-rings??

    Hello all, I am pulling my .25 Marauder apart as it appears to have a broken popit valve. Anyway I am replacing all the o-rings while it is apart and was considering putting a thin coat of silicone grease on the o-rings. I also see a chap on this site selling regulator butter for regulator...

    N/A Lightweight pcp for squirrel hunting

    I also recommend a Marauder, very dependable, accurate, whisper quiet and a very good trigger. I have two of them one is .177 and it makes 20 ftlbs with 10.3 JSB pellets ( FYI I killed 3 starlings with it today) And a .25 that makes 45 ftlbs. Downside is it’s a full size rifle

    Any airgun regrets?

    I mainly regret selling stuff, I had a nice Brocock sniper, a HW77, and I had an old TX200 that was made before the fancy checkering that I wish I had back. Or even my first PCP a Benjamin Discovery in .22, that was a handy light and accurate gun really wish I had the discovery back.

    RWS Diana RWS 48- Inconsistent Velocity

    Yes 15.89, I have the FX branded ones so they are labeled 16.

    RWS Diana RWS 48- Inconsistent Velocity

    The breach on the 48 is very loose, the JSB is softer and the skirt is wider. However you will lose some velocity, JSB 16’s in my full power 48 make 19.8 FTLBS every thing else is over 20. However the 16’s are very accurate, I have shot a field target course with this setup. And no I did not...

    RWS Diana RWS 48- Inconsistent Velocity

    Before you rip the gun apart again try a different pellet. My T06 .22 48 hates FTT pellets. You need to try JSB 16 grain pellets, I am willing to bet your groups will tighten right up,

    N/A What’s your favorite springer?

    .177 HW30 with a taco 2-7 scope. I have lots of springers and I avoided buying a HW30 for the longest time. But when it’s me and my 7 year old son sitting on the pick nick table, me with the HW30 and him with his PROD (set up as a carbine) and we are shooting apples off the tree at 20 yards...
