    GX-CS4 "GREASE POT" ?

    Nice article from F6 Hawk. I'll try to keep this short I have the Omega Trailer Charger I decided to tear it down and see what the problem was. While putting it together I noticed the intake filer had some grease showing on the top. Unscrewed it and found the whole elbow fitting was full of...

    I'm curious if there is a computer-generated video of how the air flows through a portable compressor. How from the intake through stages it builds up pressure to the outlet. With so many people on this site surely there is someone with the knowledge to do that.

    Airgun Geeks Podcast.

    I too found the Air Gun Geeks podcast very informative. I was turned on to them at our last match when talking about GX portable air compressors. After watching all the past pod casts, I learned a great deal of information. They also have guest appear Ted Beirs, FX founder's son, Chris Turek and...

    AoA

    I want to thank Shane and Todd, a very much appreciated "shout out" for help with my Omega Trail Charger compressor. In these times It is so comforting to be able to talk to an actual person to get help and/or advice. If Shane is too busy to take your call, leave a message and he will always...

    Shooting Springers?

    You probably know this already but sighting the rifle in off a front rest and then shooting off hand the rifle will shoot low. To me the best way is to shoot the rifle holding like you would shoot off hand only rest your elbow on the bench that should get you closer to being on when shooting off...

    Tuning Rekord Trigger Won’t Fire

    I agree with Bear-of -Grayling. If you cock the trigger when installing and not pull the trigger after re-assembly it will not cock when you pull the under lever. And IMO the trigger is set too light or the safety wasn't assembled correctly. If I remember right the safety must be on when you put...

    Just how accurate can a 177 10m springer be with open sights at medium range?

    You did a very nice job on the 300S. When I got mine from Holland I thought about a re-finish but I liked that I could see honest wear and use so I left it as was. No dings or scratches.

    Target shooting only...which rifle?

    I have a TX 200 .177 and a HW 97 .22. The HW 97 shot cycle was very rough so I installed a Vortec tune kit which calmed it down quite a bit. I consider it more of a hunting rifle. The TX 200 was also a little bouncy so I put a tune kit in it now it is very smooth and I consider it more of a...

    Air Venturi AVENGER Wood Written Review (.22 cal)

    This is a very tempting first PCP all the reviews I have read are positive. I've been shooting springers for several years and getting tired of cocking every shot. I'm sure it would be a pleasure to shoot by just pulling the charging handle

    100+ Shots from my AA S510 Xtra - I'm on to something here...

    A very good article and I can understand most of it even though I don't own one yet. But I'm going to buy a PCP pretty soon I love the more traditional look of the AA, have a TX200, over the FX bottle rifles. I'm curious as to the fact that the AA doesn't have an adjustment for the hammer spring...

    Polished my FX Crown .177 Barrel Bore this morning

    I saw you on youtube or I think it was you very good and instructive. Wonder if you thought about using JB Bore Bright? Did you think it would be too aggressive?

    Events 2022 N50 Nationals August 26-28 at NRA Whittington Center in Raton, NM

    Wish I could make it. I went every year from 1995 to 2017. The Whittington Center is as close to heaven as I will ever get. Very worth at least one time out there. I stayed in all the accommodations the last few years took my Air Stream. 80's during the day blanket at night with about 10% humidity.

    Barrel cleaning

    I keep my springers out in the garage "I know Springers" if I bring them out of the AC house they sweat. So I keep a flannel rag damp with Ballistol in a zip lock bag and wipe ever thing when through. No smell on the flannel rag. I keep Ballistol in a squirt/drip bottle and the smell seems to...

    Target Shooting - Reading the Mirage:

    Very hard to see the mirage thru the rifle scope since it is focused on the target. The way we did it when shooting black powder silhouette was for the spotter to focus his scope at a shorter distance hopefully with a dark/black back ground to pick up the mirage. I much rather read the mirage...
