    Winter 12g Cartridges?

    Hello; I am aware that there are bulk compressed air tanks available to screw into CO2 guns like the Hammerli 850 or Archer QB's that downregulate 3000+psi of compressed air to the ~1100psi required for safe use of the CO2. Fair enough, but I have a few guns that are unable to accept these...

    Hatsan 135 QE Vortex 30 Caliber Review

    There has been some discussion about this air rifle and many reviews on the website but after having owned one for almost a year and shot over a thousand pellets through it I thought I could give a longer term perspective.

    Bulk Tanks for Hammerli 850, both CO2 and New Ninja HPA

    Hello; Love my Hammerli 850 tuned as well as stock, also my Archer QB79. They are different guns but now I am running into propellant issues, including running low on 90g CO2 tanks and the cold affecting pressures. I have some Valken Air CO2 tanks for my QB79 but they will not fit under the...

    Cleaning an Airgun?

    Do you need to clean airguns? BB guns or multi hand pump models is a definite no and many won't even let you because of the design. On the other end are the break barrel and PCP's. Do the latter two require periodic cleaning or can I just keep shooting them?

    Hammerli 850 Magazines Breaking =(

    Hello; Happy to be here as we've been enjoying this fun airgun for about a month but unfortunately we're having some problems and would ask those more knowledgeable than I. The rubber rings on the magazines seem to break in no time at all. The other problem we're experiencing is that the...

    Why PCP Airguns?

    Hello; I have just returned to the airgun world after a several many decade absence pulling out what I had as a kid, receiving airguns from someone else who left the country, and buying an inexpensive new model or two. Up until recently it was my understanding that air guns were hand pumped or...
