    Major poi shift with just ammo

    So I am in process of sorting out and tuning a springer. Been working out which ammo to tune for as a primary choice. All 3 daisy hp(oldversion), rws super hp, and Norma ft 15.9 will group reasnably well and center on the bullseye. Both excite hammers, and h&n ftt domed ammo will shift to the...

    Barrel polishing vs. Cleaning time

    I went through the archives on the topic of barrel polishing. Am not interested in methods or claims of greater accuracy vs. Not etc. What I want to know is for those who do it, after polishing, does the smoother shinier bore collect less lead, and require less frequent cleaning?

    Crosman 1322 project, 90% of everything i wanted

    The stock configuration we all know. The numbers of the left column are completely stock right out of the box. The right column is after adding a flow through bolt. Makes no difference in fps. The slight drop I would attribute to having just oiled everything prior to the left column and may have...

    Scratch and dent?

    Are there any companies that regularly sell scratch and dent style air guns? Stuff with scrapes on stocks etc., maybe dinged or damage superficially in shipping. I don't mind an ugly gun for hunting, especially on worse weather days. If there were a discount on this type of merch but still...

    Crosman Cabelas outfitter .22

    I bought this rifle probably 15-20 years ago. Shot it quite a bit, and as I acquired more air guns it began to sit. I would take it out now and then but the weight with the large scope was a turn off. this is it in the original configuration. After some time owning it, I swapped in a grt-III...

    Benjamin Eb22 co2 pistol

    This one of those guns I will never part with. I got it as a gift years ago while they were still in production. Since that time I have done some work on it but never addressed the co2 consumption till today. Tore it down, cleaned everything. Reassembled with an angled valve port, lighter valve...

    Why does it sit unused...

    For those with a collection of rifles and pistols I bet it's not uncommon to have 1 or 2 that get significantly less shooting time than the rest. What is the 1 reason for a rifle you own to collect dust more often than not? For me it is usually weight. As much as I like some of features from...

    Crosman Favorite 13xx

    The 13xx series has gone through a number of changes since first introduced. If I don't consider any nostalgia, or collectable value in the equation I think the latest version is my favorite. The new front pump handle shape is a more comfortable fit for me. I love that they eliminated a lot of...

    Accessories Donnyfl 1/2x20 adapter marauder .25

    No moderator is included with this sale. This is just the adapter to fit 1 on a .25 cal Benjamin marauder rifle. Comes with thread protector for when no moderator is used. Used for about 20 shots, and I don't want the extra length the moderator adds to the overall rifle. I believe it also works...

    Bad marketing...

    Some companies don't think before they put their branding into the market... maybe they are great, maybe not. Either way I have a hard time buying the "Rifle Destroyer" I don't need any easily preventable problems...

    Sparrows....feeder question

    I know many of us shoot sparrows and starlings. When it comes to a bird feeder,any recommendations on which 1 you prefer? We all get the occasional pass through/miss that will strike the feeder. Do you like wood or metal feeders better for durability? Any links to 1 that has held up well?

    Carnival game....sort of.

    We all remember the full auto bb gun game where you punch out the star to win...I assume. Am basically doing the same thing but using a HW30 in 177 to see how many shots to clear the red dot. The target I have been standing, offhand...admittedly with 1 elbow just touching the wall for a little...

    HW/Weihrauch I blame you ...mostly

    I been down a so called "rabbit hole" due largely to this group and the need to carry on about weihrauch, and in particular the hw30. What seems like more posts about this rifle here than any other in the traditional/spring category. Watched numerous youtube reviews, read more on AoA, PA, etc...

    Benjamin C9

    I bought this B/S c9 pumper a while back from a neighbor. Came to me with an almost full vintage yellow tombstone box of ammo. I shot 3 of them just to check functionality of the rifle not having any other .20 cal on hand. Today I got some h/n .20 ammo, cleaned the barrel, polished the crown...

    Norica Trigger guard screw problem solved

    The front screw for the trigger guard on my Norica dream hunter has a std self tapping thread which goes directly into the plastic stock. I have had to tighten several times from disassembly and i can feel it starting to strip already. So I got to use my new gun vise for the first time solving...
