    Airgun "Challenge" vs. Competition, is there a difference?

    Is there a difference between the two? In my opinion, yes, there is! In the airgun community, we discuss all the events as competitions for various reasons. It’s simply easier to categorize them as all the same. But, I suspect that there is a difference between an event which is advertised as a...

    Why are there NO M3 vs Panthera videos? Hmm...

    I think you are correct with making one rifle look "bad" vs. the other will negatively affect sales for the brand. Also, like any brand new rifle from almost any manufacturer, there are bound to be some bugs to work out. We've seen this in the past with the launch of the Impact. The Gen1...

    How to cheat at RMAC

    I just saw this posted by RMAC today which makes me curious if those of you who have volunteered in the past have tried again this year? Can anyone volunteer or, are there "certain untold qualifications" that make it so only some people can help while others cannot? I ask this because, in my...

    How to cheat at RMAC

    @Centercut and @Jayson +'s Well stated! And, I thank you for keeping things in perspective. This is a tremendously fun event for everyone. I stated that the only thing I really hoped to gain from posting this was that, maybe someone who's involved in running the event would see it and think...

    How to cheat at RMAC

    How to cheat at RMAC

    Before I start, I would like to point out that the organizers at RMAC do a terrific job at the event to make it extremely fair and enjoyable for everyone. I’m am not pointing the finger in any way at them or their staff. Also, this is not some type of how-to guide. This is meant to alert anyone...

    Best Speed for 25.39gr .22 cal JSB pellets?

    ~970 fps for the .22 Redesigns. That's what that fella that won EBR was shooting his at.

    Figuring out my FX Maverick compact

    This is the unfortunate hitch of owning a rifle like the Maverick, Impact, Crown, etc. You'll chase a good tune on the rifle until you feel you have it figured out. But there's always a thought that it could be better so, you find yourself in a seemingly never-ending tune chase. Or, right about...

    FX Airguns - Notice

    Jake, To be clear, FX decided they no longer wanted to have their products sold through AOA. AOA did not initiate this split and would have continued to sell FX products. I'm sure whatever it was that suddenly happened, or changed, will not be disclosed to the public either due to NDA's or due...
