    Daisy 747 bolt issue?

    Not sure if this is the right forum, but here it is. My Daisy 747 has sometimes been releasing the trigger (sear?) when I close the bolt, so when I close the pump lever there is no resistance and therefore it is not pumping. It does not happen every time. This is the process I use to load...

    Tuning GAMO Whisper Fusion Mach 1 trigger screw replacement

    Rather than the M2.5-45×8 screw that is most commonly noted for this fix, I used a M2.5-45×10 screw. The 8 was barely longer, if at all, than the original so I went with the 10 and it did reduce the trigger pull significantly. I don't have a trigger gauge here so can't specify the original...

    New GAMO Whisper Fusion Mach 1

    Arrived today. First impressions: 1. I was surprised at how hard it is to cock compared to my HW30s and other break barrels. I'm sure I will get used to it but was just surprised. 2. Whoever decide to call it "Whisper" should really be fired from GAMO and banned from ever working in the air...

    Feedback Marcus120 ???

    I posted a WTB in the classifieds and got a message from Marcus120. He pointed me to someone in TX who has what I'm looking for. It appears from what I can see that Marcus120 joined Airgun Nation 2 days ago, the same day he sent me the message. His message to me is the only post I can find...

    [WTB] HW30S air rifle in SW Florida

    I have one here in NH and my wife and I spend about 4 months a year in Naples, FL. So I figured why not ask and see if I can find one to keep down there? I'm not good with repairs, etc, so it would have to be in excellent shooting shape. Cosmetically I'm not too concerned, as long as it...

    Pet peeve about trigger talk...

    Is it just me? When someone mentions an adjustable trigger, I find the info useless unless details of what is adjustable is included. If trigger pull weight is adjustable, without the upper and lower limits of adjustment being listed it is useless info. In a two stage trigger if the total...

    .177 Crosman 7.4gr vs 7.9gr

    I recently went on line to purchase some Crosman Premier 7.4 gr Pointed pellets. Nobody had them in stock, and given the current shortage of powder powered ammo I sort of panicked and bought the closest thing I could find. That was Crosman Premier 7.9 gr Super Point pellets. I figured if the...

    Daisy 747 suddenly trigger weight has increased and won't adjust down

    Ok, in full disclosure, some of the issue is my arthritic hands, and especially trigger finger which sometimes simply does not respond to brain commands. The trigger is supposed to adjust from 1 to 3 pounds, and mine is now at 2 1/2. Adjusting it up to 3, then back down as far as it goes still...

    What is your oldest air gun?

    Sorry if this has been discussed previously. If so, mod please feel free to delete. As I've been reading posts today I started thinking about my first air rifle. It is a Daisy model 25 which I got for Christmas in 1962 when I was 9 years old. Now, over 55 years later, it still works! I can't...

    Cleaning air guns?

    How often do you clean your airguns? Is it different for rifles and pistols? How do you clean them? Do those cleaning pellets work well, and if so, do you put some cleaner on them (like Hoppes #9)? My competition background is mainly with .22LR, rifle and pistol, from 50 ft to 200 yards. Air...
