    Nice setup there. Is that a long eye relief scope?

    Carbon Fiber Shroud with 3D printed moderator for AGT Vixen

    How is this holding up after a bit of use? Is your gun fac or sub 12? Am looking at doing something for a friends Vixen, but it's fac.

    HW/Weihrauch HW100 bubbling paint on tank

    I am considering bvuying an HW100s. I haven't handled the gun and have some photos. One troubling thing is this bubbling at the fill end of the tank. Has anyone seen this before, or know what this is a symptom of? I mean, I can figure it's corrosion, and if I didn't get it for a bargain so I...

    Let's see those 2240 builds!

    I have just assembled my next build where I have made my own breech. It still needs finishing work, and I will use a crosman trigger grip and some walnut grips instead of what's here, which is just to test function.

    Let's see those 2240 builds!

    Tube is 32 mm OD with a 3 mm wall 6061 aluminium. Fill and firing valve are pinned in using M5 caphead screws. I made the valve using a screw driver shaft and engineering plastic. Fundamentally straight forward and it was a nice surprise that it works well. My biggest concern was the safety of...

    Let's see those 2240 builds!

    I've ripped the heart out of this 2240 and replaced it with HPA tube, valve and hammer I made. First time, and it works well putting out around 25 useful shots at 13 fpe.

    N/A PCP with your favorite shot cycle? and why you think that is?

    Have fired a Daystate with an electronic trigger. Pretty hard to beat, otherwise out of the guns i have experience with, I really like the EDgun matador and AGT Uragan with the swinging hammer style. They feel crisp and like an instantaneous event.

    how to design the PCP valve ?

    I appreciate this is an old thread, but the subject suits what i'm doing at the moment. I am building a pcp pistol using the crosman trigger frame. I am a little stuck on the firing valve design as I am wanting a big safety factor for the air pressure. I had wondered about using the crosman...

    GX CS4 Compressor - Initial Impressions

    I may have missed it, but any recommendations on a run hour meter? I believe there are ones that sense either movement or power usage to log run time.

    GX CS4 Compressor - Initial Impressions

    Thanks for that write up, very useful. I just got a CS4 last week, and made sure I flushed and drained the water that came in it. To drain it I pulled off the "push" connect hoses, held them lower than the system and tilted it to get everything out. When I filled it I had to gently blow through...

    Nomad II issues

    I never really push it more than about 220 bar anyway, and it's held up so far. I also found that taking the time to tighten things up evenly and align things has made it run a bit quieter. The other thing is keeping all the little non return valve seats clean.

    SideShot Phone to Firefly or GoPro Adapter Plate .STL (FREE)

    It looks like the 90 deg lens for the firefly 8se. Hajimoto sells them. But looking on Aliexpress, there doesn't seem to be Firefly about, so I'd be keen to know the alternatives that aren't ad pricey as Gopro etc.

    SideShot Phone to Firefly or GoPro Adapter Plate .STL (FREE)

    I am looking to upgrade from my sideshot phone mount to a Firefly 8SE. I'm in New Zealand, so would most likely get it from Aliexpress. Is there a recommended seller?

    Wildcat MK3 (not bottle) tuning question

    Thanks everyone, This is great info. Yes I have reasonable experience tuning.I've certainly read enough and watched plenty of videos. Whisky68 was probably my favourite and most helpful. I have a Mk2 impact shooting around the 908 fps mark, and it's just right. Sweet sound, and grouping on a...

    Wildcat MK3 (not bottle) tuning question

    I did wonder if this might be happening. I just didn't think the speed would decrease so much. So i'll wind the screw in a lot more and base the tuning off setting 6 or 7, then wind out screw until speed reaches "the knee" plateau. Coyotegod, is that measurement the length of the adjustment...

    Wildcat MK3 (not bottle) tuning question

    I recently bought a sub 12 W/cat mk3, .22. I am going to use this for shooting feral pigeons around buildings and inside warehouses, so I want the power around 10 fpe. It had been tuned previously to it's max potential of about 20 fpe, so I set the reg back down to about 55 /60 bar. Now when I...

    How to fix the Nomad II compressor ?

    The first time I worked on it, I had trouble taking those same screws out, and one had been cross threaded, and ruined the hole. Unless you really need to I would recommend leaving these in. The cast metal that the holes are tapped into may not like being undone. So mine functions with only 3...

    Sorry no picture, but I have used a single point sling attached to a sling mount on the picatinny rail.
