    Other Chinese B3 part needed

    FYI, here's what I'm looking for exactly, the threaded small bolt with the knurled head on it, as well as the super small circlip that holds it on. Thanks everyone!

    Other Chinese B3 part needed

    If anyone has a bunch of parts for the chinese B3 airgun, I'm in need of just the threaded screw with the knurled head and the small circlip for the sight assembly for one of them. I have 3D printed the sight itself but can’t find the screw (or screw and circlip.) Long shot I know, but thought I...

    Really? Where? I’m looking for just the threaded screw with the knurled head and the small circlip for the sight assembly for one of these B3 Chinese-made airguns.

    Broken clamp

    There's a B3 dealer on ebay? Who? Who? Where? I’m looking for just the threaded screw with the knurled head and the small circlip for the sight assembly for one of these B3 Chinese-made airguns. I have 3D printed the sight itself but can’t find the screw (or screw and circlip.) Was wondering if...

    two new air pistols gifted from a neighbor

    Yeah he's a nice old guy, lives by himself, widowed. My son really likes going over there to fish and target shoot. He's one of those guys that seems to know a lot about...everything. We talk cars and motorcycles and guns and TX history and all kinda stuff. We take the golden retriever puppy...

    two new air pistols gifted from a neighbor

    Man. Moved to TX, and I have a neighbor (retired) who gives me/my 10 year old son an airgun from his long-ago stash pretty much every time we go see him. Are all Texans this friendly? :-) He has given us 2 pistols and a rifle so far. Such a nice great older guy. Pretty much every time we walk...

    Crosman 454 not moving BBs after seal rebuild kit install

    Hiya. First off, yes, you should buy the OEM valve seal and o-ring. Cheap. I checked back and bought mine off ebay. I did not buy from this guy, but it was a kit like this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/175206020786?hash=item28cb17b6b2:g:2WUAAOSwqGJh9TeX I did also buy the trigger spring. I may...

    Crosman 454 not moving BBs after seal rebuild kit install

    They wrote back. Only 5 parts for that gun. Spring is not one of them.

    Crosman 454 not moving BBs after seal rebuild kit install

    Just checked and did not see it listed on their site. I emailed them to see if they happen to have it though.

    Thanks. I'll check their site now. Had no idea it was a common thing.

    Walmart banning Air Pistols and Rifles.

    I checked on their site first, and they would not ship any of the pistols on sale. Might be different in your zip code, but for Dallas area I had to find which stores had them and go in. I'd say you were lucky if they still had any in stock. Around here I had to hit up 3 stores to find any, and...

    Crosman 760 from 1977 has issues

    Put a new valve in it just now, and...no leaking from the barrel end! Have not shot it yet (no indoor range), but just pumping it and pulling the trigger sure sounds and feels like old times! Not sure what was wrong with the old valve, but if yours is giving you trouble, just start by buying the...

    Walmart banning Air Pistols and Rifles.

    My Walmart today here in Texas had the Umarex Walther PPK for $15 and the Umarex 1911 for $15. I bought two of each. The 1911 was originally $89. The Walther was $59 I think. The guy who sold them to me said they are selling all of them at a loss in order to clear them out.

    Crosman 454 not moving BBs after seal rebuild kit install

    Hmmm...the BB advancement thing seems to be fixed, and the CO2 seal seems to be fixed, but...the trigger sticks (and sticks hard) after every other pull. Doesn't come back easily either. If you fire rapidly, it's better, but the "aim slowly and shoot with purpose" thing sticks it at the rear of...
