    Please fellow airgunners, WHERE IS "THE BARREL O-RING" On the MAXIMUS .22 Caliber rifle by Benjamin? I thoroughly read my instruction sheet that came with my MAXIMUS. Section 10 is the maintenance portion. The first maintenance instruction is: "Apply Crosman silicone chamber oil (part number...

    Received My Hand Pump - Odoyle Recommended

    Hi Forum Participants, I've received my hand pump today, (The Maximus Rifle arrived yesterday or the day before.) This pump looks very good! Mine has chrome tubes it appears. The instruction pamphlet suffers from poor translation into English though. I think the instructions are telling me to...

    Which Model Maximus .22 Did I Order?

    I'm looking forward to diminishing the rabbit population for the sake of the garden, and my wife is more enthusiastic than ME! You air gunners have been very helpful with all the guidance and details that you've shared with me. I'm happy to be among your ranks. 😁

    How to improve your scope turrets

    We sure can hear the difference! Do you think the louder clicking makes it more likely, that the animal that you're targeting, is likely to hear the clicking?

    Hello - First Post On Airgun Nation Forums

    Thank you MileHighAirGunner, I will be investigating the trigger you mentioned, as I too, want a quite discharge. I am not particularly seeking a "budget" priced scope. I am fine if the scope is more expensive than the rifle. I want it to have very good light gathering ability during dusk and...

    Hello - First Post On Airgun Nation Forums

    Odoyle, Thanks for your above post. I am keying in on what I've copied and pasted below, which are your words exactly: "Want more of a challenge so you can miss your 65-100 yard shots then buy a spring gun that's not the RWS 54 or 56 that will actually hit your 65-100 hard targets just as...

    Hello - First Post On Airgun Nation Forums

    Hello To All, ✋ Jack Here! I'm glad to have found this forum. I am getting into air rifles primarily to hunt the rabbits that are raiding my wife's garden. Forty yards is the longest possible shot. I'm a very good shot with my bolt action centerfire rifles. Five shots within a 50 cent piece...
