    Own a Chronograph? Have a 'chrony station' in your basement? You NEED this! :)

    Hi Ted, I built a 9 V power supply for mu old crony, and it lights up the control display just fine. I now want to find a couple of LED lights of the right size or rating. I notice that they are red in color in your picture. Is there a reason for the color? The new type light shades that contain...

    Own a Chronograph? Have a 'chrony station' in your basement? You NEED this! :)

    I built a power supply for my very old, never used Mod. "F-1 Crony about a month ago. Still have not used it. I see that the newer versions of the Crony use LED lights. I don't know if the LED lights would work with my early mod. Crony. Anyone know if they would? What are the LED light bulbs...

    Using an old Chrony?

    Hi, I have an old F-1 Chrony cronograph that was a Christmas present, bought 11/25/1992. It was put away, and never used it. I thought about it the other day, looked at it, dug out a 9v.

    Thanks BRS: Thanks for the information. I have applied to The Dianawerk Collective web site with at least fifty attempts to create an account, over a three week time period, with no results. You can pick any kind of a user name, and it comes back as already in use, and I really picked some weird...

    I give up - Mounting a Scope on 1985 Diana 56

    Just received another shipment of mounts & rings that won't work, for mounting a scope on my 1985 RWS/Diana mod. 36 air rifle. So, now I have a choice of building an arbor press, and learning how to bend the bbl. of this rifle or building an adjustable mount to com. for the bbl. droop, while...

    Getting into Airgunning

    You have hit the nail on the head, I could not bring the point of impact down enough with out using all the adjustment, and I don't like shimming. Also the shots seemed to be all over the target.

    Welcome to AIRGUN NATION - please introduce yourself here!

    Hi, All: I am just getting back into Air gunning after a long time, thirty + years. I bought an Air rifle, along with some other guns of my neighbor's, through his wife's attorney, when he passed away. I installed air rifle mounts, and a scope on it, shot it a dozen or so times sighting it in...

    Getting into Airgunning

    I obtained an Air rifle several years ago, a Daina RWS mod.36, 177 cal. I installed a scope on it, shot it a few times, put it away, later used the scope for another rifle, and this rifle has sat unused for at least 20+ years. I got this, pretty much as new, rifle out last week Bought a fixed...
