BSA Pre-War .177 Caliber Rifle Hello to all; Back in the late seventies I was at a Gun Show in Fredericksburg Texas and came across what looked to me like a Pre-War BSA barrel cocking Rifle in .177 caliber, it was not in real good shape rust on barrel and receiver etc; and of course, would not...

I would really like to try that. Does PH run any airgun events? David

First rule when you find yourself in a hole, stop digging, a rule I have violated many times! I know nothing of that rifle, but I see that it is a domestic product from Arkansas, and this might work in your favor. I don't think that you will find an after-market trigger solution, there just...

First post, I am looking forward to learning more about PCP's here. I have a FX M3 and just getting set up with it. Really enjoying the air rifle at this time. .22 This was using H&N 16 grain Hornets

My 12 yr old daughter just joined my local gun club as a junior member. She can' shoot .22 rifle and air rifles there . What would you suggest as a good first gun for me to get her for accurate target practice?

I've got an FX Impact M3 and deleted the first reg with the Huma Air kit and have the high pressure Huma Air second reg. Things are going great but I have a 700cc 300 bar bottle installed and I've only been filling it to 250 bar. Would it be ok to fill it to 300 bar? I've read here somewhere...

They are all highly figured walnut I believe. For a rifle with significant recoil straight grain in the forend is desirable so it can withstand the recoil. But for most air rifles kick is very minimal. I've made several stocks but none with wood that nice. I made a stock of scrap softwood...

Yeah, welcome. One thing...be careful, this hobby can be...addictive and expensive ! Mike

Cool Bullpup but they’re wrong about one thing: “Innovative: The FENIX is the first PCP air rifle to incorporate the air reservoir above the barrel, optimizing balance and stability during shooting.” The first pcp rifle with the airtube over the barrel was the Lobo Mustang. Having an *air...

Hello everybody, Being a newbie here but not to air rifle shooting, this is my first thread. I have recently purchased a very nice air rifle, the make is irrelevant. It has been subject to a rather sub standard camo paint job which I am considering removing. The wooden stock is unpainted but the...

I thought of this thread after a picture that someone posted and realized I never seen a discussion of this kind. So, let's hear your thoughts on, from small to very large, and how are used. I have three bottles, with a capacity of 6.9 liters each, for two reasons. First, shooting range is off...

Updated information: Come join us August 12th through the 16th for the first ever inaugural High Plains AIR Rifle Metallic Silhouette National Championship hosted by the Oklahoma City Gun Club. Please see the attached document for details on the range and match. We also have monthly local...

these are hard enough gas without them leaking you can get parts diagrams at Crosman and parts at JG air guns if you were so inclined, but these older rifles can be tricky the first time if it were the case i have never been inside one of mine https://philsvintageairgunrepair.com/services he...

I bought my first "adult air rifle" from a pawnshop in the early 80s. Diana 34 w/scope. It was a real tack driver

Don't sweat it. Do your research first and use an inexpensive gun to experiment with. That's what I did and eventually I got brave enough to disassemble my HW air rifles.

Updating this thread with my recent find, an HW80 Venom. My first Venom air rifle and the first non-factory Tyrolean in my collection. Beeman HW55, Beeman R1 .177, Beeman R1 .20, Beeman HW97, Walther LG55, Walther LGV, FWB300S, HW77, FWB150, Diana 60, FWB300, Dian 65, Air Arms Camargue

There is plenty of .20 cal. pellets available now (now is the operative word here), however that wasn't the case six months ago or for some times before that, that's why air gunners who contemplate including their air guns a foraging tools in their emergency stores almost always recommend...

Hey everyone, I'm having a problem with my new 700 mm Panthera air rifle and could use some advice. Basically, when I removed the air bottle for the first time, all the air pressure from the gun's plenum released through the back air tank port. It's weird because my rifle is still pretty new -...

In this review, I’m taking a deep dive into the all-new FX Leopard—a purpose-built bullpup air rifle that merges tactical design with precision performance. Due to some unfortunate flooding in my main studio, I filmed this review at the 68 Whiskey Studio, and I want to thank Keith for offering...

My first thought as I read your (OP) post was a BRK Ghost until I saw your preference for wood. Whoops, I forgot there is a wood aftermarket stock for the Ghost now. Pretty cool looking I think. With wood I think the higher end Air Arms would make a nice fit for you, the workmanship is...
