    Alternative for BOG (Caldwell) fieldpod V's?

    As I wrote in the industry feedback topic, I am not happy about Bog (Caldwell) not offering any replacement parts for their Fieldpod tripods. As my Magnum fieldpod has now hardened and brittle V's (because the plasticiser leaked out of them) it is now useless. Has anybody been in the same...

    BOG (Caldwell) Fieldpod Magnum. BOGged by the company...

    So I've had this Caldwell (nowadays BOG, but I think that's a subsidiary) Fieldpod Magnum tripod for a number of years now. I haven't used it much (if at all...) but recently I thought to let it finally get some use . The V's wherein the gun rests during use were all moist and a little slimy...

    FX FX Wildcat Mk1 problem: leaks air (POP!) during shot at magazine. FIXED!

    I replaced all the o-rings early last year and then it was perfect. (The rifle leaked audibly before that and the pressure tube emptied within a few hours) It has been working fine for more than a year now, but lately I noticed that the pressure tube was at 0 after a few days. My Wildcat Mk1...

    Umarex Notos with Huben valve expelled O ring leak

    Hi guys, My Notos with Huben Cricket/Dream(?) valve managed to expell an O ring at the base of the bottle connector part. I’ve tried to grab the round part with pliers and a leather strip, but the pliers keep slipping. I then took off the bottle shutoff valve and the fill probe to see if that...

    Tuning FX Bottle valve compatible with Daystate/BRK?

    Hi guys, just a quick question: is the FX Bottle valve compatible with Daystate/BRK? Looking at the photos the FX has longer outer threads, (lower 2 pics) but no further info can be gathered from it. Daystate/BRK valve: bottom 2 pics are FX valve But the real issue is the inner diameter...

    Where did the huge Leshiy 2 thread go?

    New forum looks nice, but as the title says: Where did the huge (200+ pages) Leshiy 2 thread go? Hundreds of pages with great tuning and trouble solving solutions. Gone? That would be a real shame, as it contained so much valuable info…

    New Daystate selfindexing Magazine, does it still have anti double load?

    There are no pictures (that I could find) of the bottom of then new (blue) Dayatae magazine on the net, I am still curious about the workings of it. From the outside it looks as if Daystate has copied the workings of BSA (Gamo) magazines are loaded, but with the smart addition of a removeable...

    Leshiy Grip extension. Make the grip like it should have been in the 1st place!

    The EDGun Leshiy is almost perfect, the only major flaw (IMHO) is the grip, which is made for very narrow hands, or for cartoon hands (thumb and just 3 fingers ...). It looks like Ed has received a lot of comments about this, because the grip of the Leshiy V2 seems a bit longer. But the V2 grip...

    BR scoring: what is the -ADDED- value of the X? i.e. bonus points for accuracy

    I've been trying to get an answer to the (extreme) and other benchrest scoring system, but after googling rules and such I haven't come up with it so far, so I 'll ask here: What is the ADDED value of the X (when you take the bullseye completely out). I can see when it is a tie between...

    Wildcat pressure gauge upside down, difficult to read. Can it be rotated?

    When I got my .22 Wildcat, the fillport opening(s) where situated to the side. That was fine by me, but the pressure gauge was exactly upside down, which made reading the value kind of awkward. So I followed the AOA youtube instructional movie and depressurised the airtube, and unscrewed it a...

    FX Wildcat Hammerspring tensioner problem...

    Got my Wildcat a couple of weeks ago and lately the airgun started to open up the groups big time, and after cleaning it showed no improvement whatsoever. So after some investigating I found that the brass colored hammer spring tensioning/screw plate at the back is very loose. It had unwindened...
