    Why do you still shoot springers?

    I can duplicate the results with my LGU and HW97 that I get with my Red Wolf and Wolverine R. It is harder to do, but on a good day, it gets done (at 40 yards). No, there is nothing wrong with the puffers. Pretty much one hole at times.

    Daystate New/used Wolverine R slow leak

    Mine developed a slow leak and I replaced all the "O" rings I could. Never knew which one was the bad guy because they all looked good before replacement.

    If you could only have 1 springer air rifle, what would you choose?

    LGU, Sold a TX200 and kept the LGU. It is not nearly as pretty, but after trigger work, it is all that I want or need when it comes to hitting the mark.

    Whiscombe Air Rifle Why?

    I got to shoot one once and was told by the owner, if you forget to put a pellet into the chamber and fired it, it would or could trash the rifle. That wall of air was an important part of its operation.

    Why Did You Join AGN?

    Because I got sick and tired of. "what did you shoot today, what air gun related thing did you do today and what did you order today:" on Air Gun Gate. That crapole has been on the first page for years and it has become annoying.

    Any guns you regret buying"

    JSR Raptor, took a year to get, had to send it back for a barrel change, another 6 months. Then found out the regulator had to be turned all the way down to shoot 177 pellets that made it virtually non-adjustable because the gun was designed around a larger format. Sold it quick.

    Helium anyone using??

    Some people will do just about anything to lighten up their rifles. Why not try hydrogen?o_O

    ranges in NJ

    As a former N.J. resident, I know what you have to go through to not only shoot, but to even own a gun in N.J. Air guns are viewed, by N.J. law as firearms and all that comes with them. What ever route you take, be sure it is fully legal or you could face jail time. I know a person, that if...

    Best Tips on Shooting a Springer!

    Don't get hung up on the artillery hold. My LGU likes to be held real tight against my shoulder. Try different holds and pressures, you may be surprised like I was. Don't have the pictures, so it didn't happen, but I shot a one hole group at 40 yards with a very tight grip on the gun.

    What's he hoping for?

    Believe it or not, they are quite docile and can be picked up if done slowly as not to startle them. Not venomous, but can kill copperheads and do a good job on mice and other small pests.

    Mans best friend

    This is the mess you get when you mix a Corgi with an Australian Shepard.

    HW97K Tune

    You Tube is your friend when it comes to tuning a 97. It is not hard. Take some pictures as you go and go slow, you will be fine. I did mine without a spring compressor unless you consider arm power one. Even with the Vortek high power kit, the spring can be compressed and the threads started.

    Ballistic gel is cool but 3D printing some Rubber flexible targets to test out for this week.

    What ever you do, do NOT print a Chuck Norris mug. The pellet, no matter what caliber, will ricochet back and take you out. o_O

    Opining orings

    When my Woverine R started leaking, I took it down and used the rings from a Harbor Freight kit that I had. I made sure if I couldn't get the exact size, I went a little bigger. Red neck I know, but it hasn't leaked for over a year. Next time it will be with the factory sized rings, but I was...
