    Western Airguns After some months of inactivity I took the Sidewinder .25 out of the shelf... And...

    I have done many times, carefully, with a boresnake and pads soaked in Ballistol, until clean. Always started very dirty, new or heavily used.

    On a completely different subject, I have always cleaned new barrels with Ballistol and a bore snake before firing. Was told at one time that I would "damage" my new barrel if I did not prep it so. Is that true?

    I have received similar feedback about Western Airguns products, generally. Was not familiar with Western Airguns until recently. (We have two Brocock Sniper Safaris that are also "same hole" accurate, but that is for another dIscussion.)

    EDgun Edgun Peazy Seal Failure

    Hey now. We have an Edgun Peazy fill tool that "blew a gasket", or whatever. Bought the Edgun rebuild kit. Learned from another thread that the fix is a "10 to 15 minute operation". Famous Last Words. Not interested in working on it. In the USA at the moment. Please PM us if you have the skillz...

    EDGUN PEAZY

    We don't want to repair the Peazy ourselves, for a number of reasons. Will pay a reasonable price to get it repaired, but we do not do business with Edgun West. Any recommendations? Have the leaky Peazy and the "rebuild kit" in hand. USA location, at the moment.

    EDGUN PEAZY

    I bought a second Peazy from Edgun.shop, a "rebuild kit", and a second bottle as well. The leaky Peazy sits before me, next to the rebuild kit. I have watched the Youtube videos from these various threads. Not sure where to start. Any thought to demonstrating what you did on a Youtube video?

    EDgun Question: Edgun Leshiy 2 Magazines 30 cal Red 7.62 Ammo Compatibility

    Had no idea. I thought tolerances and measurements were critical. Also didn't know air rifle slugs vary so much as regards diameter.

    EDgun Question: Edgun Leshiy 2 Magazines 30 cal Red 7.62 Ammo Compatibility

    I can also imagine barrel wear, if the fit is so snug. I come from a centerfire background, all the ammo just fit the chamber, and bang.

    EDgun Question: Edgun Leshiy 2 Magazines 30 cal Red 7.62 Ammo Compatibility

    Received the Zan 45.5 grain slugs, and they fit perfectly in the Edgun red slug mags for .30 cal. Thanks for the recommendation. Another question (I will give it a Googl: How can 7.62/.30cal projectiles have that much variance in diameter? Is there an expectation that the charge behind the...
