    BAM50 ?

    It is often reported to be a copy of the Daystate Huntsman. I have 1 in .177 and it is quite capable. I have owned for going on 10 years and have never had an issue with it. Tons of tuning info out there for it including whats called "The Book" if you google that it should come up for you.

    Watch & Discuss the AirMaks Arms Katran Compact and More!!

    Great looking airgun. Any word on if barrels will be available separately allowing for customer swap? Also in regards to the flex issue in the stock it appears some sort of brace could be made to go from the tip of the bag rider back up to the stock to eliminate this issue. Looks like holes...

    The one that got away...

    Webley Eclipse K under lever carbine, or "Her Majesty" as I called her that I picked up very cheap at a local gun show. Rifle was boringly accurate and sweet shooting in mint condition. Traded it for an IZH 46m which I did not keep long. I have never seen another one for sale and regret letting...

    Crosman Marauder Trigger Group on a 2240/2250

    If I recall others have used a shim between the trigger group and the tube to alleviate this problem as well using the stock 2240 hammer. But I may be mistaken.

    AEAC's got a Neutron Star! Whose ready for pics, vids, & an RDW!!!

    Looks like typical Hatsan sub par machining on the reciever. My Bull Boss looks like it was finished with a file by hand. With the state of CNC these days no excuses for the sloppy finish of these parts. I suppose these are considered a bargain at the price but I do expect better especially on...

    I have heard the manufacturers are very good at responding to questions. Have you reached out to them yet? Looking forward to seeing you unleash this thing on some iguanas!

    RAW REPORT

    Thanks for the response. Any links to any of these tactical builds? I am interested in doing one but no need to reinvent the wheel if I do not have to! 😁 Just looking for aome tried and true methods or if anyone adapted existing parts. Thanks again. P.S. The valve I installed I got from you is...

    RAW REPORT

    BB do you have any contacts for folks who were doing tactical setups on thier rapids? I would be interest in purchasing something if it is done right. Also is the Rapid owners club site down? Thanks - Brian

    Rapid/jsb 15.9 heavy .20 cal

    I have one of the "newer" Rapids that was built in USA and I love it. Mine is a .25 with a metal valve in it from Bucketboy and is a great rifle.

    Theoben leaks.

    I have that setup on my Rapid as well. I have had mine off several times with no issues but was not replacing the o rings. I used a little silicon grease and rotated it back and forth when I slid it into place. Hope this helps. Brian

    Beeman 1085 QB II first impressions

    Had a chabce to shoot her yet? I have always had at least 1 qb series gun in my collection (3 at the moment) and they have all been accuraye rifles and easy to mod. I had mentioned in another post a bottle conversion would be cool as well but wonder if the revier could just bolt up to a qb79...

    Should I be practical about this?

    The Hm1000 serial number number is 0166 and the Theoben is 0098. But there is no online record of when they were built. I was able to find plenty of build date info before they moved production to the USA but none since. Here are a couple quick pics of the Theoben.

    Should I be practical about this?

    Thanks for the compliment on the guitar, but it is not mine. I did build the body for it though for a client in Ireland. Been building guitar bodies for folks for many years and have shipped them all over the world and on occasion build whole guitars. Here is another I just finished yesterday...

    Should I be practical about this?

    Ok, that makes more sense to me now and is a valid point. Also it isnt like I dont enjoy shooting it so there really is not a downside to keeping it, was just wondering if there is more of an upside in turning into something else and I can see where turning it into a high end pistol could be an...

    Should I be practical about this?

    Thank you. I agree with you about not seeing them for sale very often, makes it hard for me to even place a value on it. I know when new they were in the same price range as many current higher end rifles. I am not even sure how old this rifle is but I suspect it was made during the 1st year...

    Should I be practical about this?

    Not sure I follow your logic on the 20 yard 1 gun statement. If 1 is sufficient for 20 yards how many should I have if I was someone who routinely shoots 100 yards?
