    Best Tuning Service for Springer???

    I would recommend Ron Stearns for an HW tune as his work is excellent. He can provide pricing based on what tune kit you want.

    Ok 50 yard R9 groups.

    Ron, I will be interested in the performance of your just purchased HW 95 & how you choose to tune it. Happy to see that it’s a .22 cal.

    HW 97 regular stock or thumb hole pros and cons

    I really like my 97KT but also have a number of other springers to shoot. The TX 200 both old & new versions are great also. As my HW 97 is only used for targets the weight is not an issue. Re the safety, I push it to fire with my right hand thumb before putting my hand thru tge thumb hole...

    AA TX 200 prices

    I own 2, a .177 & .22cal. I just have sticker shock @ them current pricing. However, if you want to own 1 of the best springers, the TX 200 & HW 97 are the ones.

    Why are all the GOOD looking springers discontinued??

    I agree with the direction discussed here about the future of Springer Air Rifles. My approach has been to purchase pre owned rifles & tune as needed. Many air rifles shooters are selling their springers which means opportunities to purchase quality guns at bargain pricing.

    AA TX 200 prices

    I just looked at the Pyramid Air prices on the TX 200’s & they seemed to have really increased. Beech stock @ $775.00 Walnut Left handed @ $920.00. What happened?

    HW97KT "Jolly Rogers" Edition performance and maintenance check

    Very impressive. Are these 10 shot groups? What is the size of the H&N pellets, 5.53 or 5.54? My HW 97 shows a preference for the 5.54’s & also has the Vortek tune kit.

    R9 tune kit

    2 things to remember: Cock the trigger when re installing & then fire it once it’s in. The barrel needs to be re attached before you finished the spring install.

    FWB 300 Offhand Practice/Chill Session

    I shot my FWB 300 for years in my urban basement @ 10 meters. Great rifle for this distance with enough power & match rifle accuracy.

    What is a collector grade Airgun?

    The responses are very helpful. I just ordered the blue book of Airguns so that will be a helpful reference. At present I’m not clear a on how condition impacts pricing.

    What is a collector grade Airgun?

    Those of you who collect airguns, what are your standards for condition? NIB / 95%, rarities? I look at for sale guns on the classifieds & hope to learn what you who are collectors look for.
