    What did you order / receive airgun related today? Thread

    I saw this model in my email, I'm thinking hard to order one. Have you seen any reviews?

    Bought a cheap Chinese B1 Air Rifle.

    Probably so, but you probably paid what? $19 for it? Some basic hand tools/files, a little buffing etc could have probably improved it some.

    Bought a cheap Chinese B1 Air Rifle.

    They are quite solid rifles and well built for such a low cost. Besides that they are a training tool and fairly accurate. I have seen a couple of these that have seen hard use for at least 40 years or more.

    Bought a cheap Chinese B1 Air Rifle.

    Of course I didn't! Probably didn't take it so seriously at the time, considering the price. I do remember it was pretty much as though I had pulled the trigger on a 22LR. I like to see replies to my threads, even if they're over a year old. My son has grown so much now he's up to shooting...

    HW/Weihrauch Talk me into a Weihrauch HW100

    I think the Taipan you ordered was a great choice. Pretty potent to boot.

    HW/Weihrauch Talk me into a Weihrauch HW100

    Did you ever pick up one? I've wanted one for a while now, but never bit...And spent my budget on a Caiman and Daystate Huntsman Revere. The Daystate is fairly similar to a HW 100, but the HW's mag is far superior. I personally like the older style standard HW 100 Walnut stock a bit more...

    AirMaks Arms Caiman X 5 month review

    Jim I also bought a Caiman last year when UA was having the clearance sale. A 25cal standard Caiman w/wood stock. Just like you I also had some teething issues with it. First problem I had was that I received my Caiman missing the 2 main cap scews and cups that hold the gun together! lol...

    Weaver CT6 on a springer?

    I like that reply! Truth is though like just about anything else that was ever well made or something I like, it's a discontinued model. If it can handle a springer I'll mount it up. If not, I guess it can go on a CZ! I don't know if it's an etched plate reticle or not, some of those Light...

    Weaver CT6 on a springer?

    I found an idle Weaver CT6 Japanese made scope when cleaning out the storefront at my old shop. Microtrac with a fine crosshair w/dot and AO. Im wondering if anyone here has used one of these on a springer? Any chance it would hold up?

    FWB FWB SPORT ALERT!

    Well just my luck I guess... In Sept of 22 I didn't even know the FWB Sport existed...I was a couple months late to the party?

    FWB FWB SPORT ALERT!

    Yeah tha Yeah it doesn't feel like much of a sale. I feel like they were $100 more a year ago. I thought to buy one last year when they had a big sale on most everything else, but they didn't mark these sports down and when I called they declined to offer any sales on them any time soon...So...

    FWB FWB SPORT ALERT!

    How do you know they only have 4? Did a sales rep confirm it? I wavered for a year or so on ordering one, so I broke down yesterday and placed an order. Still showing in stock. I wonder if the truth is that they have 85 in the back room and capped the sale to 10 or 12? The site allowed me...

    Hand Pumping PCP?

    Maybe :) I think my forefathers would think I was a fool purchasing an expensive air rifle and pumping it up? Jes git a 22! Dey'd say.

    How come more people in US aren't into small game eradication hunt (rats etc).

    Well I think you're a little biased in this conversation, considering you're in the hunting club/land leasing business...Some might even say you're a minor part of the problem? The world has changed, and somewhat for the worse. If you had read my posts you would have seen that I was pointing...
