    Airgun Technologies Is AGT good about support for discontinued models

    I'm still kicking around getting a Uragan gen 1, and just can't make up my mind. I have a Wildcat mk3 that is deadly accurate, so I'd be swapping for the Uragan in one way or another, as I don't need them both. 1) is AGT good about support for discontintued guns? Will I be able to get the air...

    Airgun Technologies Tell me about Uragan 2 and pellets

    I've thought recently about trying a Uragan 2, as I'm interested in a balanced valve rifle. I have a question. Can a balanced valve be tuned to shoot light pellets? It seems to me that a balanced valve is pretty much wasted on mild shooting Guns, and shines at high power. I have a couple FX...

    Reticle questions

    I'm looking for a new 4-16 ish range scope and was looking at Athlon reticles, along with others and it hit me. Does anyone really use al those tiny graduations on the reticle. I mean 1/2 mildot is ok, and I would say 5 moa marks are plenty don't you think? I'm beginning to hate Christmas tree...

    The scope you wished you'd never let go?

    Everybody talks about the airgun they wish they hadn't let go of and as I was looking for another scope I thought of the Athlon Midas Tac 4-16X scope I sold a while back. That was simply THE best, optically speaking, scope I've ever owned. It had an easy to get behind eye box, crisp and clear...

    FX Crown hammer weight question

    I accidentally dropped the hammer out of my Crown Mk2. After searching the floor under my bench I found the rear hammer adjuster, the spring and the hammer. I also found the stainless thin weight ring the goes over the spring guide. There was no hammer weight like my Wildcat. Is this normal or...

    FX FX Crown side lever pivot pin

    While working on my Crown, the side lever pivot pin just fell out. How was it supposed to be retained in the linkage? It doesn't appear to be staked. I haven't put it back together yet and it may just be a press fit to the yoke, have to try it later. Just wondered if this is a chronic problem.

The Boss trigger. I've tried before and didn't finish the task, to put one from parts in a Crown. I...

    Question about Hawke Frontier scopes

    I have two Frontier scopes, both 1" tubes, a 4-20x44 and a 3-15x44. Look like same scope size & weight etc. They have great lenses and mechanics. My only gripe is the eye box on both is super critical. There is almost zero tolerance on eye relief and almost zero on side to side alignment...

    Shout Out To Leapers/UTG

    I had gotten a UTG 3-12x compact and liked it so much I bought another Compact OP3 model, which is a step up. When it arrived it was clear and bright but the parallax wheel had a minor rough spot right in the 30-50 yd range. Right where I mostly shoot. I thought it would work itself out with use...

    N/A What gun amazed you?

    For me it was an absolute fluke. One of those times when I had money and no particular gun in mind. After seeing a couple possibilities in used guns on UAs site, I called, after the great guy who I talked to realized I was open for suggestions, he said, " how about something different, an...
