    Just bought this Hy-score 804 off Ebay and was pleased to have found it. The early 804s still had serrated barrels undoubtedly Hy-score factory was using serrated 803 barrels. Majority 804s have a smooth finish at the end of the barrel. The orange 804 box is the one of the main reasons for...

    Airforce I finally bought a PCP. I hope the Condor SS Airforce in 25 does it.

    Finally bought a PCP. I am really excited about geting it. A new airgun experience for an old airgunner. I hope the .25 cal "AIRFORCE" CONDOR SS MODEL R1212 PELLET RIFLE is as good as the reviews claim. I like that it is made in the USA. I saw a .30 cal barrel for the gun. I did not...

    N/A Benjamin 132 Air Pistol appears unfired

    I won this Benjamin 132 pistol. It looks so new it's hard to believe its 50 years old. The condition is incredible to me. I do not collect Benjamins but it was too nice to pass up. Any idea what the real market value is for 132 in 100% without box or papers unfortunately?

    HW/Weihrauch HW70 Instant Favorite

    I am more of a collector than a shooter. I have found the HW70 on target. Trigger is crisp, iron sights are micro adjustable and clear, recoil is predictable I like it. Crosman HP or better yet QYS pellets. The match grade pellets tighten up my groups a bit. I have started using them in...

    N/A Best Air Pistol find, gift or auction bargain?

    My best auction bargain was a Hy-score 827 ( Diana 6M) in perfect condition for $87 plus shipping. Best airgun gift was a S&W 79G that a shooting friend gave me. A few yard sale purchases (example a $5 Marksman pistol) were great deals but the airguns condition was generally poor. Please...

    N/A Hy-score 819

    I bought Hy-score 819 (Diana model 10) at an estate auction. Auctioneers' picture showed no accessories, paperwork or box. Auction fever spiked and I felt buyer's remorse thinking I overpaid. I was surprised when the airgun arrived it had an ugly brown vinyl case with 70's orange foam. The...
