I wonder how we were ever able to get by, and hit what we aimed at, with a 1", SFP, 2-7x32 scope? I've been cycling through several modern, powerful scopes recently, FFP, 50mm bell, illuminated, 34mm tube, etc., and realized that I actually do just fine with an old Simmons Pro-Air 3-12. At...

Scope makers usually mention a couple of things. First, glass, i.e., distortion from the lenses themselves. As an exaggerated example, remember how a miniscule defect in the mirrors caused major problems for the Hubble telescope, distorting our view of outer space? Same with scopes, and...

Nobody likes the Hawke Airmax Compacts? I have other Hawke scopes, not the compacts though, and very happy with them for HFT or hunting. Frankly, I'm a bit surprised nobody else has mentioned the compacts. Price maybe?

Yes, the coat hangers AND the sofa PLUS any change you find in the cracks.

Oh, and I was going to say that on my channel, less than 10% of viewers are under 35 years old. YouTube changed the stats a while back to where a view doesn't count as a view unless it is viewed most (or all?) the way through the video. In other words, if someone watches the first minute or...

Demographics and springers, or airguns in general. I wonder what the age statistics of viewership/participation are here on this site?

Hmm, 2015, April Fools Day (April 1)

My Shot Show playlist so far; Oh, and I didn't see it addressed here, but the reason you may need a 7k psi compressor from AEA is in the event you buy one of their newer guns that fills to 7k psi. I think they will be color coding the tanks so you don't get mixed up and overfill something...

my contribution to the Shot Show news; https://mailchi.mp/ee3797ef1444/industry-day-at-the-range-shoot-something-different?e=45f189b1e3 Air shotgun looks interesting, little brother to the Seneca Wing Shot? The .30 cal Gauntlet (finally!). Turns out I'm isolating due to family testing + for...

I just cancelled. Exhibitors are pulling out or sending a skeleton crew or even no crew at all, just an exhibit. From what I can gather, exhibitors would like to cancel but NSSF (who puts on the show) insists that it go on. Most have too much invested to pull out altogether. Masks are...

OK, glad for you, but how? Others might benefit from your solution.

Agree with nervoustrig, seal quality and hardness are hugely important. When pcp’s were first becoming widely available, the common wisdom was to store longer-term at about 1/2 pressure. Of course, seals weren’t as good then as they are now. But might be an option for you.

Correct, simple answer is no; buy new and you’ll likely have to sell for significantly less than it cost you. Better to buy one cheap off another guy who has bought new and now wants to move on.

I know jsb does regular inspections, but look like they missed this one. Now, if nobody ever tells their supplier, how will they know? You would be doing them a favor. May be a bad batch out there that they could retrieve before they get a reputation about it.

To speak of rape and then use your daughter in an attempt at humor is hard to take for those persons whose daughter has actually been raped. It’s not a funny word, sorry. Crying in the shower? Could have made fun of coronavirus without taking us there.

Update: finally got a chance to shoot the domed and streamline pellets through my Marauder. Good. But not quite as good as JSB 8.44gr or even the crosman premier heavy's. 

Gee, hope nothing happened to him.

I got some samples from the QYS booth at the Shot Show. The wadcutters are offered in match and 'olympic' grades; Predator Intl., who imports jsb's, imports these wadcutters primarily for 10M competition, so they should be available through retail outlets. The other two mentioned above...

Well, that rifle normally requires a 1/4 to 1/2 turn unscrew of the bottle, then cock and shoot a few times to release pressure, so you can then unscrew the bottle. If you can’t get the initial half unscrew, try shooting the air out until the bottle is totally empty. That would relieve any...
