    Other Truth behind Macavity Arms Prototype Airgun

    A tiny bit of blue or purple loc-tite will keep your screw where it belongs.

    300 Bar Easy Quick Fill Adaptor For PCP and Airgun from AliExpress

    If they scaled it up slightly, had a better design with sturdier components, then maybe. My eBay version spit parts across the garage on first run and I was refunded. I’m glad I used eBay on that one, and not Ali Express.

    Question for Alkin W31 owners

    My warmup consists of turning it on with bleeders open for maybe 10 seconds or so to splash some oil before before filling. My cool down is run with bleeders open until no droplets or vapor is seen from said bleeders, then turn off, let it cool and cover.

    Hawke Sidewinder 30SF kinda disappointing

    I’ve only had one Hawke scope, an Airmax 3-12 with front AO. The glass and reticle are just okay, but the front focus is so stiff that I need to come off the target to adjust it. So far my worst scope purchase, and I gave it to another member. I hope Toasty is enjoying it now.

    Much better without the band.

    Skout goes Tesla!

    Any idea when these will be available? Would you need one for each caliber, or are they configurable?

    Pumpers, pain and new age quackery

    I have several electrician style injuries, wrists and elbows have been torqued to hell, my index fingers are bent from constant turning of fasteners, I have a plate and screws and “donated” bone in my neck, which is riddled with arthritis and needs more surgery. I’ve also torn my bicep from my...

    What Airgun do you have that you would never get rid of for any reason?

    I don’t think I’ll ever get rid of this Prophet. This is an unrefined gun, with stiff and sloppy cocking, however, it shoots fantastically, was relatively inexpensive and is so ugly it’s beautiful. If it had FX’s smooth cocking, perhaps on the right, it would be phenomenal. Love the RPB and LR...

    Metal Target Paint

    I have a bunch of dayglo marking paint from a buddy. It sprays upside down, but the colors and price is right. It dries very quickly.

    yong heng shuts off after piston replacement

    I lubed the upper cylinder with a small amount of silicone oil, just so it didn’t start out dry. I had no problems with it running after that.

    Alkin Compressor, Any Issues

    Annual oil change, and purifier cartridge refresh.

    yong heng shuts off after piston replacement

    You could try running it no load for another half hour, then try again. If the windings are starting to burn their insulation, it’s only a matter of time… Any overheating smells from motor when running under load?

    Yong Heng Compressor Issue

    I think the fill port is below the regulated output?

    How long is too long?

    Here is a Crown with 700mm, and a Skout with a 35” (just shy of 890mm) barrel, and another Skout with a 700mm barrel. 700mm works on a bullpup (sorta), but I think the Crowns, Redwolfs etc…look pretty silly and vulnerable with overly long barrels.

    yong heng shuts off after piston replacement

    You are probably right, but why deny a brother the potential fun/misery that is YoungHeng troubleshooting and repair? I feel that this is an important right of passage, and should be suffered by all PCP enthusiasts …

    yong heng shuts off after piston replacement

    Is it struggling before it shuts off? What is the temp when it shuts off. How hot does the motor feel?
