    Airgun Club in Michigan... Looking for Someone

    Shot in the dark here... I knew a gent probably 13-14 years ago who went by Rick who lived in Michigan. He was a member of the WWCCA. Western Wayne County Conservation Association and he was heavily into airguns around that time frame. He also became a US citizen around 2010-2011. Was likely...

    Traditional Pistol WTB Crosman Steel Breech

    Probably gave away half a dozen of these several years ago with all my other Crosman stuff and now I got the bug again and got some bits to make a pistol. Need a steel breech. Would ideally like a couple as I'm planning on a small arrow shooting pistol and my machining isnt the best so I want...

    Valve wont fill past 3000psi?

    Morning, all Originally, I had thought perhaps that my CF tank was leaking. I would fill it up with the compressor and then some days later, use it to fill a gun and it would only fill to right at 3kpsi. Today, I topped it off and it was near 4kpsi. Filled to just under 4500 and went to fill...

    Mini Lathe for Small Parts?

    So I have a cheapie HF small lathe that I've had for about 10 years now. It was always rickety and now even moreso. Thinking it's time for an upgrade. Been off an on looking at smaller units. Space is a major concern. Saw a South Bend 1944 9A locally for 1700 with some tooling, and as...

    Who Still Has a Kidde Compressor from Shelden Sporting Goods?

    Been running mine for 9 years here, no issues. Despite that amount of time, I dont have a ton of hours on it. Last time I called Jim to ask about when to change oil, I wasnt even close the hours he recommended. Wondering how long yall have ran yours and if it's still going strong? Cant...

    Airforce .177 Condor Slugger *FAIL*

    Saw that AirForce had the .177 Condor 'blems' for $395 and I'd always been interested in a .177 slug gun so picked it up. Have posted a couple times on it on other topics, but in the interest of not continuing to hijack others, I'll make my own post. This is the standard Condor, 24 inch...

    Classified Ads You Waited and LOST On

    Curious as to what some of your missed opportunities have been here. I check the classifieds daily unless I'm on a trip and have had a few items that have slipped through my fingers due to me waiting, procrastinating or just not being fast enough. Three that come to mind. 1. An early...

    Airforce TalonP/Escape... Lets See Those Shot Strings

    Recently got a renewed interest in AirForce guns and picked up a lightly used TalonP. Had planned on putting a larger tank on it (and may one day, who knows?) but pleasantly surprised with the small tank. It came with a .25 barrel and I threw on an 18 inch .22 barrel I had laying around. My...

    Winter Blahs = More Forum Time

    How many have noticed that your forum participation seems to get a jolt during the winter months? I visit here daily, multiple times a day, but notice that unless I tend to be a little more quiet during the summer months. I'm not stuck indoors as much and tend to be outside as much as...

    Holding out on a 'Want'...

    Ever see an airgun listed at what you feel is a fair price that REALLY speaks to you? I've been eyeing one that either 1. isnt 'that' great of a deal or 2. perhaps there is something I just dont know about it, but holy smokes I want it. I can afford it, but cant justify it. I've held out...

    EDgun A Lead on Some Edguns

    Hope this is ok to post here. It may be better suited in the classifieds, but since I do not have the guns to 'sell' I chose to post here. I have a buddy who was into airguns for a bit. Ended up getting a Matador long and a Leyla, big tank, fittings for the tank, etc. He is now looking to...

    N/A A Few Pistols

    I've said several times that I dont particularly care for air pistols and am not that great of a shot with them anyway.... so why do I have a section of wall of them in my gun room? Was in there tinkering around today since the weather is still crap here and decided to snap a little pic.

    Umarex Notos as a Pistol... Just as good as a Huben

    ...well, except for the size, power level and of course semi auto. Yes, yes... clickbait, sorry. But hey, the Notos is around $250 bucks so there's that. I've been singing the praises of the Notos for a little while. I had one converted by Firewalker and I have to say I really like this...
