Got this from AOA for $75. Can't beat that. At first I could not get it close to zero, maxed out the turrets at ten yards, and was 3 inches high and 4 inches left. Removed the 3D printed moderator and she dialed in. Got a couple of 6 round mags and a aluminum moderator from Wes at Airgun Archery Fun. Two really good products. The moderator is direct fit, m10 x 1 threads. $34. Mags were $20 each. I put in a 8mm bushing (5/16") to pre-load the hammer spring for a bit more power. A nylon bolt of the correct diameter cut to length would work great. After adjusting the trigger, I mounted a 1-8 LPVO Riton . Going to switch to my Hawke Frontier 1-6 LPVO. Gotta love a $750 scope on a $75 pellet gun. Trigger adjustment is super easy 👌. See YouTube. Seat the screw flush, back out 2 full turns. I also adjusted the first stage for no take up. The cheek riser is a block of ridged foam taped to the stock. Kinda ghetto but functional. Accuracy is impressive for a CO2 pistol. Tried 11 pellets and the RWS Super dome and the AEA 18.3 were easily the top 2. AEA WAS THE BEST. As usual. The AEA dead on at 10 yards is low 1/4" at 25yds. I don't shoot squirrels, but if I did, I'd be confident to 40 yds. At 4lbs this is a great walk around hunter. Rabbits 🐇 at 35yds should be no problem. Head shots, please. I chose the Diana Chaser over the Crosman because of the magazine option. Thanks for looking. Get one, their fun, fun, fun. Cheers , Bill and Addi.

so, where have you been i have been in the Chaser rabbit hole since 2019
do you have an old or new version
the new version lost the front trigger adjustment screw while it kept the rear one no one knows about and either way both screws are to short and the sear spring can be replaced with a lighter one and the sear can be drill for a trigger stop but i have written about that to many times
duct tape, try one of these

I have one. Got it to teach my grandson to shoot. He loves it and so do I. It loves JSB 13.4's. I tweaked it a little. I get about 35 good shots before the power starts to drop. It shoots at steady 625 fps. If memory serves that's a little over 13fpe. There is a fellow in South Africa that has a you tube channel and he has done a series videos on tweaking and trouble shooting these guns. He has helped me out of a few tight spots. I mounted a Hawke 4- 32 AO scope on mine, The weather is getting right to have some fun. Happy Shooting.

As referenced in my post, there are 2 trigger screws. I adjusted the first stage to eliminate take-up. Trigger breaks at 14oz. AEA 18.3 pellets shooting 1/4" at 25yds. Not a rabbit hole, just a great shooter.

That would be 11.6fpe.

I actually have two Chasers that we picked up new and is stock as a carbine with the long barrel.

Question: Are there EASY stock mods that will give it more power and accuracy or does it require significant $ and effort? Sorry that I'm such a Newbie to the Chasers. We got it originally for small pests but ended up a bit underpowered and too slow in the pellet speed. Ours are .22 caliber.

Thanks.

The upgrades I did cost about 200 dollars so for a 320 dollar gun I get about 200 shots at over 800fps 360cc bottle 108.00 , regulator 28.00, froggies drop block 70.00. That makes it a very nice easy to shoot PCP

How is this superior to, say, the Notos, which shoots about 800 fps in .22, is accurate, and comes stock at about $250 with coupons? Genuinely curious. I think it has more shots per fill given the bottle. Thanks for any insight.
