    Reviewed a couple thermal scanners

    I got the chance to view a new brand of thermal last night. Thermtec, I got to see the cyclops d 640 and their 335 units along side a pulsar telos. Cyclops 640D pro I’m just going to say the FOV on the 640D is massive on the 20mm (1.1x)setting. Being able to swap to the 40mm (2.2x)setting...

    Barrels impact m3 shroud for 600mm

    I swapped from a maverick to an m3. I’m looking for a shroud for the 600mm barrels so I can run shrouded.

    Iray bolt 50c

    I was playing with my new scope, I knew someone was looking for thermal videos. This is not mounted yet, and on my property. Sorry it’s shaky the videos are about 3/4 the quality of the eye piece. One major thing I can say is the infiray app is way better than agm,atn,pulsar or Bering. To record...

    myhighpressureair A++

    Well I’ve made a few small purchases from them and shipping was always fast. So I decided to make my next large purchase from them, an M3. I called to confirm inventory and Tom answered. He quickly checked to make sure he had what I wanted(bronze m3 35 with ammo). I asked about cans and he...

    Advantage of hammerless?

    I’ve wondered for a while why all the hammerless guns are semi/full auto. If you could run a traditional biathlon setup and magazine you would have a smoother cocking, and no ping. I also thing this would be much quieter then the semi auto setup and more efficient. Just a thought, hammerless...

    Wraith mini

    I got to play with a wraith mini last night, a local dealer has one in stock. I think it’s just as good of a picture as the bigger units(wraith4k and atn4k) in a much lighter package. The only downside is the battery setup, I would invest in rechargeable batteries. I was pretty impressed with it...

    Considering a pard nv007s

    I’m thinking of getting a pard nv007s, does anyone have one? I’m wanting to know if it works good as a handheld? Does it work decent on the scope? I would probably put it on a hawke vantage 4-16ffp on my maverick 30cal.

    Tuning Fx maverick issue

    After a 2 month wait fox has sent me the wrong screw(old style) for my power adjuster. I’ve got the old style in my gun circled in red. I told them I needed the new style circled in blue, since the old style eats into the power wheel. I have not found a m3x12 cap head with a 1.5mm Allen so...

    Fix parts

    I’ve waited almost two months on a new power adjustment screw for my maverick. It had the old style grub screw that was known to eat into the power wheel. The only part they wanted to warranty was the screw, I had to buy the power wheel that was chewed up. Well instead of sending me the new...

    Where are the maverick accessories?

    When will fx finally release the power kits and barrel kits? I’m wanting to turn my 30cal compact into a 600mm 22 slug gun. The 30cal is a little much for starlings, mainly the POP that they make.

    Maverick compact scope

    I’m looking for a scope for my maverick 30 compact. I prefer ffp with mil adjustments, I’ve considered discovery compact. I’ve got a 6-24 Midas tac on another gun, I’ve considered the 4-16 Midas tac on the mav. I’m mainly using it for hunting, 100 yards max.

    Maybe I’m crazy but look at this formula

    I know someone was figuring up a formulat for hunting power, I might have something Grains x (velocity/100) Squared now divide all that by diameter in inches times 100. so a 30 cal at 900 FPS with 44.74 44.75x(900/100) squared =3624.75/(.30x100) 120.825 units 100 mph Base ball 2242grn...

    Maverick compact 30cal

    I just received my maverick about an hour ago, threw an old junk drawer Nc star 10-40 on it. I can say that it shoots better then me, with the sun fading fast I hurried to sight it in and shot a five shot group at the last at 50yards. No bipod, no bag just resting on my front porch railing. My...

    Gx-e-5k2 compressor

    Well I got tired of waiting and I wanted something quiet to keep in the house so I bought this a few weeks ago. So far I really like it and I’ll try to update this thread as I go along. I’ve had a few compressors over the last two years, but this one is by far my favorite. It sounds like a...

    Nomad 2 quit

    This is the 3rd nomad I’ve had the first two were nomad ones. I don’t have a lot of time on it and service it by the book, probably a little more often. I started it this morning to fill my Uragan compact to 250bar, it blew a fuse before it got to 100bar. I let it sit unplugged for a few minutes...

    Rws Diana 48/52

    I’m looking for some info on this gun, I’ve got the chance to buy one in pretty decent shape for under $200 in 177. Any help would be appreciated, is it a gun to avoid or a good Springer to own?

    How much power is enough?

    I’m currently playing with my streamline 22 on its lowest power setting shooting starlings. I’m only shooting 10-20 yards and with Crosman destroyer pellets it has been dropping them pretty easy. I shot a few with my r5m long 25 set at 55-58ftlb. I honestly like how quiet my streamline and sumo...

    Bipods

    I’m wanting a bipod what will rotate/pan. I’m considering the utg recon, who has it and what do you think. I’m using a Caldwell that doesn’t rotate right now an it’s on a pic rail. I would really like an atlas 5h but it’s a little too rich for me! I’m also open to recommendations.
