Details of where you got that part / mod ???

This is exactly what I was thinking! Like-minded! Now... will the DAR do it after sitting a week? Two weeks? I'm not trying to challenge you, but that's the question I have for mine - gonna take a long time to figure all that out ;-). I found that 3 out of 4 of my airguns have a lower velocity...

Thank you.... Answer is Skunk. I'll edit the original, since you're the 2nd to ask.

So far, if I'm counting correctly after two pages, here are the platforms that have the most responses: Taipan Vet - 5 RAW HM - 3 FX Crown - 3 Kalibrgun Cricket - 3 I was kinda expecting more dominance from the Eastern Bloc guns (IE: Taipan, Kalibrgun, RTI, AGT, EDgun, etc...) given their...

Skunk-sized

Very interesting responses! Keep um coming. To clarify for those that say trap - this is hypothetical - so think of it as if you had one shot to try to hit a 1 inch bullseye at 60 yards, and there was no warm-up and the airgun you choose has to have been sitting idle for at least 48 hours. To...

Imagine this scenario... you have a very shy pest, and you think he's been spending a lot of time under your storage shed. Although, you've been waiting weeks/months to have an opportunity to fix the problem - from a distance of say 60ish yards. Which airgun would you pick up knowing you will...

Thanks for that info! That confirms what I thought... mine is really high (129ish). I'm no tuning expert, but now I know I have a lot of room to play with reg pressure. That's probably the reason mine is a bit loud. First I'm gonna try some heavier pellets at the high pressure and see what...

I got my FX Dynamic Compact .22 delivered yesterday. Unfortunately, heavy-handed UPS had "put it through some rigorous dependability testing". I noticed when I opened the case, the airgun nor the cylinder were in the appropriate cutouts, and were even laying completely flipped over. I didn't...

@FLgunner - for the JSB 18.1 going at 850ish - what is your reg pressure set at? And, what is your macro and micro hammer spring adjustments set at? I got mine delivered yesterday afternoon too, and have a story... will post very quick initial impressions as soon as there is a break in the...

At 80-90 yards, you want to use something heavy. In .25 with the stock liner, try using the 33.9 grain options from JSB, FX, AEA, etc. Stick with it... unless you got a complete lemon, the platform you've chosen is capable. Search for tuning guides, and practice, practice, practice. The more I...

@FLgunner - Still want to hear your initial thoughts when you get your compact. I couldn't resit... I have one on the way to me in .22. I'm hoping to be able to get JSB 18.1 somewhere in the mid-high 800's with a decent shot count, and that might make it my preferred walk and stalk squirrel...

ok, I'm reading this thread getting nervous... my Maverick has been great for 2 years, but where should I put silicone oil exactly ?? Anyone have a link to a general maintenance guide?

I'm thinking about one of those too... so, if anyone has any first hand experience please respond.

Thanks all for the reply's... there is some very valuable information here! I was afraid the answer to "which scopes have clear glass" was going to be, individual preference and vision. That's too bad because it's not really possible to buy a bunch of scopes, shoot/hunt with them, then...
