    Other First PCP help

    Cody, I've been a hunter of small game and big game for almost 60 years. I moved to PCPs many years ago for the same reasons that you're considering it. Going to make a suggestion that I think you should strongly consider. In the classified section on this website is a used RWS Excalibur in...

    Other Thoughts on this hw35

    Silver Leupold 3-9X40 would be a good fit for that HW35

    Avenger magazine stuck (I'm a newbie too)

    If you are going to use those metal cleaning rods that came in your kit on your air gun barrel I would strongly encourage you to get a crown saver.

    Wood stock V Laminate stock V Synthetic stock V Metal stock

    The stock depends on the gun and its usage. Metal, laminate or wood could be dictated depending on environment, usage, and the gun. The ergonomics discussion is almost laughable. Custom stock fitting for not only ergonomics but accuracy goes back over a hundred years. Purdy shotgun stock...

    Time for another episode of guess that stock

    Where to shoot for Newbies

    As others have inferred, you need to check your local municipality laws in order to shoot in your backyard and check their laws, county laws and state laws to understand where and what you can shoot. The rules, regulations are not universal across our great country anymore

    Friendly reminder to clean your barrel

    This is an excellent topic. No matter what the gun is when it arrives here I clean the barrel in order to eliminate one of the variables of accuracy. In air guns I don't advise using hoppes. I'm a fan of JB Bore paste and a brass brush. Not necessarily polishing but removing the cosmoline and...

    Tips for buying used/secondhand? (MN, USA)

    I'm going to second the suggestion of actually going to Airgun shows if at all possible. Not only do you get to see the gun but you get to meet face to face with the owner and ask questions in real time. Prices are usually very competitive as well. You might turn your nose up at the drive...

    EDGUN USA Youtuber has reached a new low...

    Okay, am I understanding that this entire thread started with an April fool's joke? Everybody has gotten their panties in a wad and are not willing to admit that they have been had? Please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

    Raw Reg o-rings

    It seems to me that there should be a donation site dedicated to Motorhead and the proceeds sent to him on a weekly basis since he, on a weekly basis, is willing to share his knowledge and experience with airgunners in trouble. Last thought, it should be a sticky

    Airgun restoration

    Wow Pale-Rider what a nice surprise of beautiful figuring of wood when you stripped and refinished that piece. Wonderful restoration! Mine, in comparison, is very ho-hum. I used JM's RLO and knocked it down with rottenstone since, like you, I like a satin finish. My Ranchero is older and has...

    HW/Weihrauch HW50S 125 year Limited Edition

    Being a vintage Weihrauch guy I think this is an abomination. I've looked at it multiple times and can't see the beauty. Please don't flame me but I think this is going in the wrong direction. Not sure I understand why we aren't demanding the Gary Goudy inspired stocks on Weihrauch's since...

    N/A The PCP world is absolutely crazy !!!!!

    I find it very interesting to see the progression over time on the forums. Many air gun forums. The biases by forum owners, moderators that had their own agenda as well as air gunners that had their own prejudices because of what they had bought and were trying to justify their purchases...

    N/A The PCP world is absolutely crazy !!!!!

    Who was the "I'll take it" guy on the old yellow that used to buy two to three guns every day?

    Classifieds Etiquette.... 101

    CTAIRGUNNER, Two things: 1-I will miss your contributions because you are one of the very very few people that I follow on this site 2-I've sold over a hundred air guns. Mostly 10 m springers on the old yellow forum. I've also sold a lot of powder burners since I was an FFL until about 10...

    Shipping Insurance

    Many FedEx and UPS locations are franchises. The franchisees can make up their own rules and many refuse to ship guns or anything resembling guns. This is the reason people mask the contents. I used FedEx for many many years shipping air guns and PB's. Now I use pirate ship. The key is to...
