    Anschutz Anschutz Match Mod 220 Part Needed

    My suggestion, incase a correct screw cannot be found, is to get on the hobby machinist forums. There will be folks on there that love helping people and might be willing to manufacture a correct screw for you given the right information. Alternative is to CAD up the design and send it off to...

    Anyone else spent way too much money on this hobby?

    Compared to what some people spend on cars, jewelry, computers, alcohol, phones, watches, the lawn, cigarettes etc etc I think airguns aren’t too bad. I know most of my airguns will get 50 cents on the dollar. Can’t say the same for many of the other things… -Marty

    Plinking in Massachusetts

    I always wondered if there might be some airguners in Wayland! That said, since you are in Framingham you are not too far from the guys in Marlboro. They often come to the meets at Woburn and they even post a handy calendar of all the matches that are taking place in other nearby clubs...

    There might be a shooting meet in Woburn tomorrow. Check the Field Target thread. It’s usually the last Saturday of the month at the Mass Rifle Association. -Marty

    Holy Pellets Batman!

    Prices are not going to come down much, if at all in the near future. Some reasons: 1. Over a trillion dollars in additional money was printed during COVId. More money is chasing fewer or the same amount of goods. 2. Taxes keep going up, which will be passed on to consumers like they always are...

    The Machine Shop - Airgunsmithing, Modification, Fabrication, Manufacturing of Airgun Parts and Accessories

    Yea, I see where you’re coming from. Maybe the better option is to have a “DIY Manufacturing” parent thread with sub-threads for lathes, 3D printing and CNC. That said, I think that in terms of software and complexity the two disciplines are converging. The Chinese lathe I got a few years ago...

    Given the rise of 3D printing this thread/sub-forum may need to incorporate 3D printing posts too… -Marty

    Air Arms - rebrand, partnership, and new products!

    There was nothing wrong with the original logo. Neither Mercedes, BMW or Audi are changing theirs… why is Air Arms? -Marty

    3d printing parts?

    FreeCAD is great if you don’t want to be locked into a proprietary system and don’t mind a less polished look. Always getting better too. -Marty

    Tuning Why aren't springers externally preload adustable?

    Yes, I did get a bit ahead of myself and forget what the title of the thread was. That said, I think you extrapolate too much about my thinking. I agree that businesses usually cater to profit margins and to the largest addressable market. That said, there is room for niche products at...

    Tuning Why aren't springers externally preload adustable?

    I agree with that statement. However, there is always room for a niche, reason people love the FWB300s and D56s. -Marty
