    Recurring Leak

    He had a video about cycling it and then it would seal up. Pyramid says to set the reg at 110-120 for .22. Gun came at 140 and didn't leak. Not sure if I don't shoot it enough but I don't want to have to tear into the reg. I think I should turn it up anyway because I am on line four an 115 reg...

    Recurring Leak

    Ok. I get it. What do you suggest beside boggers? And why is it a joke? Is there a common fix?

    Recurring Leak

     So I have had my Impact back from the FXUSA for a few months and have noticed the pressure dropping. It is coming out of the weep hole. Can I use something like JB Weld to hold the air in? Has any one done this? I don't want to have to send it back. It's not a bad leak but just annoying. ...

    What do you do for your indoor airgunning?

    I have a friend that is a mechanic and he takes scrap metal from work to the junk yard. I give it to him and he is saving it till he has enough to take in. Some people melt it down to make slugs. Sounds cool but I'm not sure how much a slug mold would cost. Maybe some of the guys that make them...

    What do you do for your indoor airgunning?

    I made a box that resembles a pellet catch box but made to be quieter. Plywood box with bubble wrap behind metal plates made from a dumpster door. I staple towels inside to absorb sound and prevent kick back. I staple cardboard to the front to put the target on. The pellets get trapped behind...

    Fx impact .22 pellet speed

    I meant the one over the bottle, the one that adjust the hammer spring flow? I hope some of the more experienced members can help because I am new to this too. Your regulator may be set different. Is yours limited to 12 ftp?

    Fx impact .22 pellet speed

    I don't have a true chronograph, but using the chron connect in the basement, I am getting about 932 on power three. I'm not sure how accurate the app is but it was pretty consistent and I measured to the inch. I am using the same weight pellet as yourself. Where do you have the valve dial set?

    What kind of gun is this?

    I have that gun. It's pretty good. It is hard to cock though. The gun is better than the scope. No parallax adjustment. I had the Strelok app on my phone and was getting 960-970 fps with it.

    First time out of the basement with new gun

    Kentucky. I think I am about an hour from kyairgunner. I haven't sent him a message yet though. I have a stiff schedule until later in spring. I am loving it too, just wish I had more time to use it.

    First time out of the basement with new gun

    Yeah thanks. It's going to be a little harder than a lot of the other people make it look.

    First time out of the basement with new gun

    So I got my FX Impact a little less than a month ago and have shot it in the basement and a friends house. Both between 12 to 17 yards. I took it out to the farm and sighted my scope in at 35 yards. I got two groups at 55. The wind was kicking up to 15 mph, so I had to wait in between shots. I...

    FX magazine question

    Does anyone one know how may turns are on the clock spring in a 18 shot mag? I took it apart and the spring-sprung. After a couple of hours, I got it back together and it works but I want to know if I did it correctly. I spun the inside part of the magazine 5 times, and it felt about the same...

    please any info on swiss + arms tg-1

    I have this gun. I got the sonic crack with the first two or three shots and had to stop shooting that day because of a ricochet. I had to tighten the screws that hold the stock to the metal parts. I got an app for my phone that works as a chronograph,and using 7.9 grain pellets was getting...

    Welcome to AIRGUN NATION - please introduce yourself here!

    Hi, I'm Rowe. I just got into air gunning recently. I did used to shoot when I was young. My dad let me shoot a pump action pistol and .22 bolt action. My neighbor used to let me shoot his .22 bottom load. Until a few years ago I did not shoot. Then I got a CO2 BB gun a Wal-Mart. Just recently I...
