Funny you should ask. YESTERDAY I was hunting with my Edgun R3 long,.22 slugger. I realized I had a tin of those that Centercut gave me a few weeks back so I tried them out (25.39gr?) Holy crap! They were shooting as straight & accurate as the preferred slugs that the Edgun LOVES (.217 Daystate...

Will it fill SCBA tanks (4500 lbs)? Scuba tanks (hp) are around 3200ish lbs. For airgunning 4500 lbs is needed generally speaking.

We have camouflage colored squirrels here but nobody ever sees them :unsure: 🤪:ROFLMAO:

Yours as well! Holdover or scope clicking? The Edgun came to me set up for clicking (Thank You Centercut! ) AND with a Sightron S-TAC. I'm really loving that scope! Simple reticle, very nice glass & CRISP clicking. I ranged that squirrel at 135 yds, turned the turret to 135 & pulled the...

Taking too long to download your picture. Have you checked the foster fill nipple (if your gun has one)? Common site to leak erratically. Try a drop of silicone in there, a SMALL drop.

FX's SIMPLE guns are stellar (Royale, Wildcat, Streamline, Dreamline, etc.). Most of the negative comments I've read here are by people who base their opinion on experiences with their more complicated, o-ring laden guns like the Impact, for one example. Imho, SIMPLICITY RULES! They DO have guns...

I just got the Tuxing CGA347 fill adapter yesterday from Amazon. Had to remove the hard nylon o-ring at end of probe (goes inside tank valve threads) with TWO rubber o-rings to get it to seal. Tuxing made that probe a mm or two too long to seal easily & correctly but I got it to work. I've had...

Search for an exploded diagram of your Kricket. O-ring sizes should be listed (hopefully).

If the lever is as bent as I think it is, straightening will probably shear it off at the bend. If you've never removed a jammed or double loaded pellet there are plenty of past posts here on best methods to try. Usually pretty easy unless pieces broke off & got inside the works. (Rubber mallet...

I too would would pass. Have to admire Nature's oddities.

Took a ground squirrel last week at 135 yards with my slug shooter (Edgun R3 long shooting Daystate Howlers,.217, 20.2gr). Got it on video but too lazy to edit & post. Maybe later. I WASN'T interested in slugs til I started shooting the Edgun, then I REALLY wanted it. The range & repeatability...

Firefighter & then fire systems designer, installer, tech & licensed hydrotester. NEVER personally had one fail or seen it happen in 30 years. They're designed NOT to go boom so I don't worry about it more than I need to. Had to fail tanks for recertification due to age but not failure.

GLYCERIN, and you can add more if you choose. Good to have that type mounted on compressor to quell vibration but not necessary on parts like fill adapter but doesn't hurt either.

Don't think I'd change anything. I had to WORK to get my initial guns (& myself) to perform acceptably and by the time better equipment came my way I found myself to be a competent shooter. I'm glad things happened as they did & don't want to screw with success.
