    N/A Scopes and gas rams?

    Following! I need to get one for my hatsan 135 vortex in .22. That thing is the hardest recoiling springer I've ever shot. Like a dummy when I was doing shot strings I was pulling the trigger with the Knuckle of my trigger finger and felt like it was going to pull my finger off.🤕

    Tuning Decreasing Hammer Spring Increased speed???🤔

    You're probably getting hammer rebound. It's bottoming on the back face of the valve and bouncing back faster than the HS would be able to. I've heard it called over driving the hammer. I had that problem with one of my Pcps and I just put a Oring in the hammer bore to cushion it. Add weight to...

    Bought acreage

    That's exactly what I was going to post. I have 40 acres of lightly wooded land with a 100 yard shooting range. I would love to open it up to fellow air gunners to shoot but the liability risks are too much. Heck, the only people we let shoot there are a couple of close friends and only 2 of our...

    Filling an outdated carbon fiber/aluminum SCBA bottle

    I've read about them failing at around 15,000 psi. They're probably designed with a 3.5 safety factor which means 3.5 times 4500psi.

    Hatsan Hatsan 125 5,5mm vortex spring

    I have a spring 125 sniper and a gas ram 135. The gas ram seems to be way more harsh to shoot than the 125. I haven't done anything to either of them. They're both refurbs.

    Filling an outdated carbon fiber/aluminum SCBA bottle

    There will be no galvanic corrosion between the aluminum liner and the carbon fiber because there's a layer of fiber glass in between. As Motorhead stated,the only thing that will happen if the liner fails is it leak.

    Pumpers, pain and new age quackery

    I've heard it called tennis elbow. Never had it from pumping a air rifle but did get it from when I was riding a big bore 2 stroke dirt bike.

    HELP --- I damaged my external regulator

    That's what I was going to suggest except go to a welding supply store. It looks pretty much like a standard pressure adjustment knob used in gas welding regs.

    Microscope pictures of FX 30 Cal 44.8 Gr and AEA 30 Cal 45 Gr

    Those AEA pellets look like way better quality than the FX. Those skirts on the FX was to affect the accuracy. I looks more like the die didn't get cleaned out in to long of a time. That's mass production for ya.
