Ah, resistance is futile, that's why we're all here. Do you want to keep it as a pistol or use the shoulder stock? For a pistol, I'd suggest something light, like a dot sight. For a carbine, here is a thought: a scout/swat scope mounted on the forward rail. The one in the photo is a UTG...

FWIW, as a data point,I just took apart one of those Air Venturi 1100 psi (76 bar) "regulated" bottles, the kind for using HPA on otherwise CO2 systems, and there was no liquid water inside. I took it apart because it was leaking air, and I had recently pumped it up several times from zero to...

BB Pelletier (Tom Gaylord) has blogged frequently about different Texan models. As I read them he says 0.458 and even 0.459 shoot better from the Texan than 0.457. Here are the series, the last part for each as you can see the earlier parts linked in each last part...

Between the Corvids and Cardinals, I'm confused. What is the purpose of this feeder, 50 yards away? Helping out starving wildlife, fattening up this fall's quarry, back porch entertainment at a safe distance or something else? Good shots of course.

Mr. Nelson, sir, I wish you a long and enjoyable retirement! I have twelve airgun-specific NOE molds. They bring me great enjoyment in casting and in appreciating how projectiles fly. Be well, sir!

I don't see it; I see the scope cover, where is the rest?

Concur. The recoil is back and then forward. You want the sled (holding the scope) to let the gun slide back underneath it. I think as the spring is only to push the sled to "zero", it should be in back so that there is room for the gun to slide back on that first back recoil. I explain only...

How do you change aim to the different targets, move the rest and bag, move your seat and pivot on the bag, move the gun side to side on the rest , something else?

I adjust mine so that when closed, the breech is snug against the hat, which sounds exaclty how Airforce advised you. That way there is minimal air bypass. For aftermarket hats, as long as they are consistent and don't leak too much air, there might not be a problem. Apparently the top hat...

Maintenance for multi-pump guns includes dribbling significant amounts of oils (eg. Pelgunoil) into the pump workings. All that oil eventually goes somewhere: through the valve and out the barrel, lubing all it encounters and reducing wear, both real and imagined. As far as BBs that engage...

For those who do not lubricate pellets, do you lubricate your barrel, say by cleaning frequently with a "wet patch" or by shooting a gun that is fed a Pellgun, silicone or some such oil through the pump, bottle or CO2 valve? Lead (and tin for those who are into lead-free) is a common plain...

Is this a particularly wide-angled scope?

Does CO2 count? On a warm day my Talon/Condor setup, 24" barrel with the CO2 adapter and bottle, will get 12fpe in .177. It will only do half that with the 12" barrel. But a 20 ounce CO2 tank will give me over a thousand shots.

What do they call it, a BUG, a Back Up Gun? What would you bring as a BUG?

How is that gun not in a movie?

Wow, that group at 40 yards with an inexpensive dot! I would just see a little target circle and a big, blurry dot hovering around. How do you aim that, red dot covering orange circle, dot intersecting circle like the number "8", something else? Do you focus on the dot or the target circle?

I have a Talon P with the AF suppressor and a Talon SS, .25, and have swapped tanks back and forth so the power was the same. Both quiet the guns but the SS was noticably quieter than the AF suppressor on the Talon P, full backyard quiet where the impact smack of the pellet is more than the gun...

You cocked the gun first before pumping, right?

AF might counter that since the CF bottle is at a higher pressure, it needs a valve tuned for that, and so they only provide the correct valve-tank combinations. One downside to something that is idiot-easy to work on is that idiots will work on them. They could still have revenue if they sold...

Maybe put a little heat on the tank neck to soften the lock compound and expand the threads? Say, a heat gun or a soft flame, past the end of the blue flame of a standard home blowtorch, mabe 20 seconds.
