    [SOLD] *SOLD* - Hill Mk4 Hand Pump

    Hello sports fans. I have a LNIB Hill Mk4 hand pump for sale. I have used it a handful of times, about 150 pumps is all it takes to bring my Hatsan Flash QE back to 200 bar. Always taken slow so as not to heat up, the included lubricant was used as directed. Enough left in the tube for a...

    First 2240 Mod, Pellet Jams

    So I ordered the long steel breech for my new 2240 from Pyramid Air. Fast delivery and nicely packed. I installed it per the instructions, and upon trying to load the first pellet, it jams as it’s being pushed forward by the bolt. The pellet is hanging in the well for the screw that’s inside...

    Best Punch for Short Range Lethality

    I'm always looking for ways to further my work ridding South Florida of the invasive, destructive iguana population. With my two long guns I've done more than my fair share of damage. Now I'm thinking of trying a new technique to sweep the canal banks. I've been driving to locations I know have...

    The Jihad Continues

    So I went out to a spot last evening and took out six or seven iguanas. A passing FWC (state wildlife management) stopped to see what I was up to. I told him I was doing god's work taking care of the iguana population one by one. He laughed and kept going. On the way out, in an area I had...

    Safe Urban Hunting

     Urban hunting poses specific challenges. As always safety must be our first concern and our second one and so on. Usually when we think about guns and safety we are referring to being safe in our handling of dangerous weapons. This is as it should be. We should not, however, lose sight of the...

    CF Tank Valve Replacement

    So when I started shooting PCP's, I really appreciated the opportunity to work out daily by pushing that Hill pump down a number of times. I found I was having way too much fun with that so I found a used 45 minute SCBA tank with some life left, and got a fill station from Amazon for it. Works...

    Is a SCUBA Tank Worthwhile?

    OK, so I know that they go to 3K, but I guess the question is, how many times would I be able to refill my Hatsan Flash QE with it? I have a buddy that dives and will lend me a full tank to play with, but the plumbing alone is near a hundred bucks. Not keen on spending that for a test. I know...

    Looking for Heroes

     So I have thrown out a few hints to the people I know that hunt iguana here in South Florida. I declared an iguana jihad over a year ago and stopped counting at 150. That's just from my backyard. Now, with my Hatsan Flash QE .22, it is fully expected that the jihad will be taken to the next...

    Feed Problems with my Hatsan Flash QE .22

    I Like this gun a lot compared to my Benjamin Titan springer. I am having some trouble getting the magazines to feed reliably. They seem to jam where I have to repeatedly try to stuff the pellet into the barrel with the bolt. I've used the following, and they both have similar issues: H&N...

    Opinions requested: Buying Broken Yong Heng and Fixing it to Save $$

    Folks, Im limited in my resources, being retired. I stepped up from a break-barrel to a PCP, and what with this and that, the wifer is starting to look askance at me. Not a good thing. I mentioned the Yong Heng, and she didn't seem impressed with the joy of putting out as much as the gun cost...
