    How semi auto function is achieved in an airgun

    Not sure if this is a 6th type, or a variation of a Hammerless valve. In 2009 I built a self-cocking blow-open regulated PCP based on the Cardew GC2 valve. I put an adjustable return spring behind the plunger and used a Benjamin 422 semi-auto lower to catch it on return. The upper shown is a DAQ...

    Tuxing Twin with Asurion Protection Plan?

    FWIW, Asurion did everything they could to avoid honoring the advertized $25.00 replacement policy on my cracked Ipad screen through Verizon. I eventually pinned them to the mat, but I consider their warranty worthless.

    When returning parts you can ask the seller to email you a shipping label to print.

    FEDEX brought me a 2-part Benjamin Semi-Auto wooden stock rifle this week. ☹️

    Why do you remove the price?

    How about we all agree to move the decimal point one digit after the sale? A curious wife would barely pause for thought at seeing a new FX for $150.00, spare mag at $3.50, pellet tin $2.20, etc🤔

    Cecil Whiteside Collection

    This is my first post on AGN, though I made 2,300 on The Yellow many years ago. I got sidetracked with powder-burners and airplanes for the past decade, but all the new airgun designs have me hooked again. I just bought a Giffard 8mm from Davis Schwesinger, who is selling his 1000+ airgun...

    Now I’m getting the START CONVERSATION BUTTON when I select a member’s name. This happened after I made 10 or 11 posts on various forums. THANKS!

    Having issues using the new site features? Report bugs here

    I'm also frustrated in trying to PM. I'm pretty sure I can add value here. I made hundreds, maybe thousands of posts on the Yellow Forum a decade ago. I bought, tested, and sold just under 500 airguns, built some pretty cool prototypes, and I received hundreds of all-positive BOI's, but I can't...

    Studying Baffle Designs

    I've been away from airguns for a decade, but I played with different designs on AG's and subsonic (.22-.45) powder-burners (as an 07-02 FFL/SOT) and I agree that volume is the most important factor, especially with airguns.

    AEAC Video - LCS Air Arms SK-19 Semiautomatic .25 REVIEW + Iguana HUNT & Discuss w/AirgunGeeks

    I just picked up a used select-fire version in .25. I almost never hit the happy-switch on firearms, but I'm thinking that long-term the FA version will be collectable. I'm racking my brain to remember the 9mm FA Thompson-tribute airgun that I lusted after in the 90's. I'll look for an old...
