    AEA AEA SF bottle conversion?

    The dealer was fine and handled the situation appropriately. AEA rep " Tom" was the one that ghosted me. I have a couple threads about it if you're curious... one in the barrels section "so i slugged a barrel" and one in the big bore section "challenger elite 51 project".

    "No airguns allowed here"

    When you rent their guns yes, have to buy their ammo. Otherwise I've never heard of that happening.

    "No airguns allowed here"

    I'm pretty sure that's the trick. Folks just don't even have a clue what an "airgun" can be. Probably thinking airsoft or nerf gun.

    "No airguns allowed here"

    I'm right there with ya. One of the big pros for me getting into airguns was the ability to shoot on my property. Still, I have some limitations. The range is a nice place to shoot by myself and with friends... it's also 7 minutes away, 8 bucks a day, and never crowded. Pretty sweet deal overall.

    "No airguns allowed here"

    Ever been to a shooting range that didn't allow your air gun? I went to a new range yesterday since my local club is closed on holidays. Went in, asked a few questions, filled out the waiver, paid the cashier. Then I dropped the question... " Figured I should mention this since some places get...

    Other Feeding a yong heng compressor off a compressor?

    I've considered the same thing for my tuxing compressor but haven't tried it yet. If you put a low pressure regulator on shop air and brought it down to <5 PSI that would be the safest way to go. Not sure if your compressor or mine could handle much more on the first stage.

    Chaszel Barrel liner .224x12 Twist for Airforce Condor😀😀

    Just wondering if you have put some rounds through it yet. And side question. Does the lapping process often give noticeable improvement?

    My new airgun. Can you identify it by name?

    No idea on the name... but it looks like a mashup of many different custom parts, and maybe one or two off the shelf 🤣

    How long is too long?

    She said: no such thing. But in all seriousness, what is the point of diminishing returns on velocity and energy for barrel length?

    AEA AEA SF bottle conversion?

    Just a heads up... AEA straight up ghosted me when I had a problem. Don't expect them to take care of any issues at all, regardless of where you bought it.

    AEA Challenger Elite 51 Project

    I love it when a plan comes together! Great day at the range. All of the ammo I tried was stabilizing with the new barrel. Zero keyholing. These targets are at 100yds. The first pic was me trying a bunch of different ammo. I labeled the ones that I remember. Reg set at 200bar. 1. AEA lathe...

    Adding dessicant to tuxing compressor

    I've had an idea for a while to add a dessicant trap between stages on my tuxing compressor. First I'm wondering if anyone has measured the pressure between these stages. The bowl I have is labeled up to 250psi. Figured I'd ask before I start disassembling those fittings as they seem to be...

    Who makes the best barrels for air rifles?

    Vaporizing lead with a laser sounds like a really, really unhealthy idea. Edit: Ugh, I'm reaponding to ancient history.

    O'Ring Kits

    There are so many possible oring sizes that no assortment is going to be comprehensive. I gave up and just order specific sizes from mcmaster. Even after ordering hundreds of different sizes over the years I still never seem to have the one I need.
