    Has anyone tried using an actual PB silencer on an airgun?

    Threads probably won’t match but a silencer for a PB should handle anything an air gun puts out. Check legality for swapping between weapons.

    A Danes hunt for a larger caliber air rifle / permission to buy such a thing

    Sounds to me as if getting a hunting license is the better way with less restrictions other than the time factor to go to class. The crash course could be justified as another cost of "airgunning". Does a hunting license allow you to shoot outside in areas where it is permitted? How large of a...

    Any Custom Knife Maker Recommendations?

    I have about 25 custom knives. Bob Schultz made the two I use regularly, but sadly he isn’t with us anymore. I had to process a deer last season and I didn’t have a good set of knives so I bought two cheapo knives from Walmart. The filet knife was sharp but edge retention was bad. The bate...

    Try not to get sick when reading"""

    Gun buy backs are a publicity stunt trying to make people feel better and press home the point that guns are "just not needed". Forty years ago New Mexico was a lot of fun because the people had a more rugged western mindset...

    buddy fill tank

    My dive shop can get tanks to 4100-4500. The bottle needs to cool down after the initial fill to get the higher fill pressure. I’ll leave my bottle and come back after they get the higher pressure .

    buddy fill tank

    Interesting thread. When I was a Scott SCBA tech I had to have our department bottles recertified (about 300) yearly simply because of their duty cycle. As an individual you can get a hydro test done on personally owned bottles. I did it for a C02 bottle for beer brewing and it cost almost as...

    Burris AR-P.E.P.R. 30mm One-Piece Scope Mount Question

    I like the Burris mount but it weighs a lot for its size. I have it on powder burners.

    What did you do airgun related today.

    Technically I didn’t do it, UPS let me know my Texan SS Mad Dog gunstock will arrive tomorrow so I know what I’ll be doing.

    Why Did You Join AGN?

    This forum has more activity and better info than most. The users are friendly and helpful too. I’m not much of a joiner…not on social media etc…but this is a good exception.

    ROWDY TREED A FERAL CAT

    In my neighborhood the city traps a feral cat that lives in the area and neuter or spays it and notches the ear so they know it’s been fixed. They let the cat go and it lives in the ’hood and keeps other strays away. They started the program 6 or 7 years ago with a tuxedo kitty that hung out...

    ROWDY TREED A FERAL CAT

    I recall going to an all inclusive resort in Mexico and hearing feral cats howling as the workers culled them late at night. That woke me up because I sleep light and it’s a gruesome sound that gets cut short unexpectedly. My old female Maine coon cat loved to get squirrels even though she was...

    ROWDY TREED A FERAL CAT

    Only illegal if you get caught. Trapping Snares Deadfalls Depends on just how much do you want them gone. I love my little fur balls but they don’t belong in the natural environment.

    ROWDY TREED A FERAL CAT

    I have two cats. They are inside cats because all cats are killing machines, even fat well fed ones. I don’t like to do it but if I’m in the fields and find feral cats I dispatch them.

    Powder burner bullets

    I’m just thinking about the physical difference of the two materials that I know of and have seen in my experience,I have no factual evidence backing up my point of view to be honest. That’s an interesting link too. One point I believe that’s made in error is the burning powder harming the...

    Powder burner bullets

    Yeah but in my experience those plastic skirts fall off easily

    Powder burner bullets

    I’d be leary to use fire arm slugs since they are a harder blend of antimony and lead to withstand the extreme pressures of a powder actuated cartridge and might not make as good a seal as pure lead. Also incremental variation in caliber size is not great or generally allowed within specific...

    Habor Freight Rifle case on sale for $99.00 Black Friday special.

    These cases are just too heavy for me, and once they are loaded its not fun trying to move them around. I look I fondle then right when I decide to buy one I try to take it off the shelf and realize it’s just too massive.

    Am I Just Nosey Or What?

    I always check out background clutter. I’ll even re-watch movies just to look at certain scenes. Yeah I nerd out on lotsa oddities.

    What's Your Next Purchase?

    I’m thinking a used Mazda Miata so I can get to and from the range via the scenic route with a few curves thrown in for good measure. Not sure an AF Texan will fit in the trunk, it might have to ride in the passenger seat.😎
