    Shipping an air rifle for the first time

    So it's a first for me. Just wondering what is typical protocol for legality. Do I need to claim that it is an air rifle? What carrier etc. USPS is kind of crazy on their site with what can be shipped. Pretty much says that it has to be an air pistol and almost makes me think I need to ship it...

    Dry firing to empty. How bad is it???

    I recently put a larger plenum on my avenger from DUY. There is no pressure relief on this unit and my dumb self put it on and pressurized it before putting it in the stock. The unit itself is wider than the action and Im not widening the laminate stock I just made. So how bad is it to dry fire...

    Why do I dump time into cheap rifles?

    I still don't know why I don't just buy a tier one rifle from the get go instead of having a bunch of entry and mid level ones that I dump time and money into. One day I will get my veteran. Anyone else do this dumb crap?

    To tru oil or not?

    So I have a purple and pepper laminate stock I am close to finishing. I got some tru oil but really have no experience with it. After more reading I have heard some mixed opinions about using it on laminate, especially unnaturally colored laminate. Anyone have any experience? Will it muddy or...

    New stock coming along

    So I'm getting close to being done with my laminate stock for my avenger. It's been a long and stressful process for me never having carved a stock before. I'm dreading drilling for the screws to hold the action in lol. Any tips to not screw this up?? Also thanks to Steve from avs for giving me...

    Plenum size and upgrade Q

    So I think I'm about to order a new plenum for my avenger .22 that takes 10cc stock plenum to 25cc. Any idea how this would do in the shot count or max power over stock? So now im getting around 60ish shots at 35fpe on my usual tune and I think it maxed around 45ish. Any ideas on a ballpark to...

    Tuning Avenger aftermarket?

    Just wondering if anyone knows of anyone making parts for the avenger? A better poppet and valve spring would be a money maker. Nothing wrong with mine but it being the same as the liberty I would like to have one on hand. I can't seem to find liberty poppets anywhere either. Where is DUY?

    Why the 30 degree linear shot group at 100?

    Trying to practice at 100 yards and getting really good groups but it is always a weird line. It will jump around and do hole in hole every other shot or so...not consecutively...jumps back and forth to hitting where it was a couple of shots ago. Any ideas? Is this wind or harmonics possibly? I...

    Will hard alloy pellets hurt your barrel?

    Going through a box of old pellets(some probably 10 years old) I found some weird stuff. Some russian brand pellets that seem super hard and some crossman penetrators which are the ones that are poly around the base and sides and has a hard alloy pointed tip sabot type deal within. Is there any...

    anyone have a MTC mamba pro 5-30?

    Was wondering if someone could measure the focus wheel on your mamba pro. Reason for asking is I am looking for a side wheel that will fit my discovery HD scope with a 38mm focus wheel. The mtc side wheel uses a compression type hold over the wheel that seems like it would be the easiest way to...

    Yong heng weirdness

    So I have been using this compressor trouble free for a while and recently it blew an oring on the external filter. After replacing and filling a tank up(500cc) the gauge on the compressor will read 4500 while the gauge on the rifle reads 3500! 1000psi off seems a bit extreme lol. I don't have a...

I have a compressor and a scope i can throw on there already. Any thoughts on either of these guns or perhaps something else under 400. Should i wait for the...
