    Thanks everyone! More good stuff to consider.

    Tuxing or some other ~$1K PCP air compressor like the Omega?

    Aliexpress Tuxing link I asked a couple of questions using messaging but, the response I got was apparently lost in translation. How does the AutoPurge work and what does it do on this compressor? Do I need to add any filtration? It looks like the longer water/oil trap is included along...

    10M air pistol? FWB, Steyr, Walther, ...

    From looking from afar (online), I'm liking the FWB P8X a lot generally. However, at my level, any of these pistols would take up the next level or two. At that point, when I plateau, I could see making a move to a specific pistol that meets my personal needs better however, at this point in...

    10M air pistol? FWB, Steyr, Walther, ...

    My friend is a distinguished Pistol marksman. He's also working on his distinguished Rifle but, life has gotten in the way. At my level, the difference in accuracy between a Steyr LP50 and L10 is irrelevant and lost. If I had the skill to shoot at that level, I probably wouldn't be on this...

    10M air pistol? FWB, Steyr, Walther, ...

    Yes, I'm looking for right-handed only use. I'm not planning on Weaver or Isosolese two-handed stances. I want better technique with my dominant hand.

    U.S P.S no longer allowing airguns to be shipped

    The clerk you spoke to assumed an airgun was the same as centerfire or rimfire firearms. An FFL can ship firearms thru the USPS, I've done it personally when I was an FFL. A private citizen cannot. When I was 20 years old and going to college, I told my father I was headed to the local post...

    Adjustable power bullpup style air rifle options?

    In the past, I have considered the Brocock Compatto and FX Wildcat but, I opted for an Air Arms air rifle at the time. I am looking for something more compact today with a variable power level. I have a preference for a good magazine option but, a single load air rifle is acceptable if it is...

    Daystate Huntsman power with the regulator?

    Thanks everyone! I already have some big hitters so, a fixed 18FPE would be a bit redundant for me.

    Here’s some food for thought

    AWS auto-scaling is at best a mixed blessing for sites like this. I can't imagine using it on a forum like this personally. Month to Month billing can be a real challenge too, especially if you see a sudden surge due to bots and similar things causing traffic spikes. Best wishes for a good...

    10M air pistol? FWB, Steyr, Walther, ...

    I had a nice conversation on the phone about an hour ago with Neal Step of ISS! If things go as expected, I will meet him in Fort Worth in a week or two. As you said, any of them seem to be a great option for me and the differences are mostly insignificant to a user like myself so, I really...

    10M air pistol? FWB, Steyr, Walther, ...

    Those Steyr repeaters certainly sound attractive! For Pidgeon plinking in my barn, that repeater sounds like a better option!

    10M air pistol? FWB, Steyr, Walther, ...

    Just the type of insight I was hoping to find in the General Forum! I briefly thought about FTS and similar options but, my college days got the better of me thinking about accuracy and training.

    10M air pistol? FWB, Steyr, Walther, ...

    I'm well past child-rearing age and my nieces and nephews are all either graduating high school in a couple of weeks or are adults with their own children. In terms of lead exposure, I've been down that road with gun ranges and shooting smallbore during college. While a valid concern, living...

    10M air pistol? FWB, Steyr, Walther, ...

    "Wobble area" or "Natural area of aim" is something I had to overcome with my Glock decades ago as I was used to a heavy S&W L-Frame revolver with a 6-inch barrel. That Glock was so light, I had the opposite problem since that heavy revolver dampened out the 'shakes'.

    10M air pistol? FWB, Steyr, Walther, ...

    I am hoping to get some responses from a broader group in the general forum before I drop ~$2K on a pistol. And no, I don't need the same answer twice.

    Daystate Huntsman power with the regulator?

    How adjustable is the power on the .177 caliber Huntsman? Everyone says up to 18ft/lbs. What power adjustment does this air rifle have? Specifically, when shooting in barns and around buildings, I want less power. If I could turn it down to ~5ft/lbs, I could shoot in my house over Winter for...

    What about the Brocock Commander XR .22?

    So, how are these doing for everyone? Good, bad, other?

    Military

    People serve for different reasons and have different expectations. I appreciate all that took the oath and served honorably. Insults should be withheld. What our ancestors did or didn't do is a nice footnote in history but, what does that have to do with today and someone asking if a company...

    10M air pistol? FWB, Steyr, Walther, ...

    I'm looking to purchase a 10M PCP air pistol. I don't have much experience except with an old FWB 65. I wear a medium-sized glove and I am right-handed and right eye dominant. I'm thinking this will make me pretty easy to 'fit' with a quality air pistol. Pilk Guns dominate most discussions...
