    [WTS] Air Arms S510 Superlight stock - Hunter Green in poplar

    I figure someone has got a nice S510 with a heavy laminated target stock and might like to have a lightweight stock to take it hunting. ...or maybe you have an S510 (or S410 or S400 or S500) and you messed up the stock somehow? Here's a nice one and you can save your messed-up one for field...

    [SOLD] .22 Air Arms S510 Extra FAC w/4 mags, hunter green (reduced price to $850)

    $850 with four magazines. The rifle is overall in very good condition. Cosmetically, I'd give it a 9/10. It's worn a bit shiny in the touch areas. No bad scratches. The mags all have new O-rings. I will include a full set of replacement Air Arms OEM O-rings for the rifle, too. I bought them for...

    [WTS] .22 Air Arms S510 Extra FAC w/4 mags - $1k

    The rifle is overall in very good condition. Cosmetically, I'd give it a 9/10. It's worn shiny in the touch areas. No bad scratches. Aside from that, the only flaw is that one of the magazines isn't 100% reliable. These mags don't have a spring mechanism in them, so they never clip the pellet...

    Another lunchtime nutter

    I came home today for lunch. I was eating my sammich when a nutter came directly under the tree at the back of my yard and was eating there. I went downstairs cracked the back door, flipped off the safety and lined up on her. She was facing me and I went for the forehead shot. I sent the lead...

    Stoeger S8000E-TAC review (.22 cal. gas ram rifle, 16 FPE)

    Stoeger sent me a few guns to review; this is the first one. I'm not one of those guys who does this for his day job. I plan to send the gun back, so consider it unsponsored. I have no affiliation with Stoeger. Just a low-budget, one-take video. (it's not my day job ;-) ) Here are my...

    Feedback Scotty1 is an A+ seller

    I bought a nice used Gamo Urban from him. His asking price was fair and he did an awesome job packing it, too: double-boxed and well-padded. He’s also willing to talk on the phone beforehand. A+

    SOLD: Diana 52, .22 cal., Vortek hi-power kit, 20 FPE

    SOLD. Thanks for looking! Early 90s manufacture. Trigger is crisp, but slightly heavier than that of a modern Diana. Shot cycle is nice. It's accurate. Selling because I'm moving into a townhome and need to downsize. This is the nicer-stocked version of the 48. (checkered, walnut finish) ...

    My Christmas gift to you lot...

    Is a nice hunting/pesting story. In the spirit of giving, I gave these two nutters each a pellet for Christmas: The first one was making his way across the yard in Forage Mode. He wasn't stopping long enough for me to get a bead on him. I gave a squeak and he stopped just long enough to take...

    Scope mount for HW30s: drooper or no?

    It has been awhile since I had my HW30s apart. I lost the safety when I had it apart putting the Vortek kit in it. Found it a month later. Now, I'm ready to take it apart again to have another go with the safety, tune the trigger, and put my UTG 3-9x32 compact on it. I'm lacking the scope...

    Sunday nutter

    With some squirrel taco left-overs still in the fridge, I managed to bag another one. I walked by the dining room and noticed a new nutter in the neighborhood, foraging under the walnut tree. I made the S510 ready and went out onto the deck. I was a good 20 yards away, but as soon as he saw me...

    Oh no, another stinker (an IMperfect skunk pesting)

    The usual story. I caught him digging in the lawn. He was quartering toward me. I sent him a JSB 18 to the boiler room. He turned 180°, then fell over dead. Must've been a heart shot. I didn't see him lift his tail to spray, so I'm betting the pellet went through and clipped the stink sack on...

    2nd nutter from this morning

    This is the one I saw in the back yard, as I was getting ready to head out. It was making its way across: bound, a couple sniffs around, bound again. It made its way up onto my deck, then onto the woodpile that borders that side of the back yard. I squatted down a little to try to thread a...

    Unsponsored Review of .22 Diana 52

    Just did this last night. I quite like this gun, even though it is not as accurate as my TX200. Cocking it is less awkward, and let's face it, the extra power is intoxicating sometimes. Let me know what you think:

    1st nutter from this morning

    My wife and I stayed later this morning. Just as I was getting ready to leave, the squirrels decided to start foraging. I noticed this one in the front yard. Normally, I let them go, don't want to be noticed by someone on the street. But I started scheming as to how I could pull off a safe shot...

    The perfect skunk pesting

    Last night, I stepped up from my basement cave and noted that the LED was flashing on the motion alarm. I turned on the back yard light, and sure enough, there was a stinker digging the lawn, under the feeders. He didn't even look up when I turned the light on. I got the S510 unlocked...

    Un-sponsored Video Review of Air Arms S510 FAC (in .22)

    Nothing fancy here, the only editing I did was to cut out most of the 10 shot group in the middle. If I could only have one airgun, this might just be it. If you like it, please do me a solid and open it in YouTube to give it a Like. If I get a few thousand Likes, I may be able to buy a tin of...

    Cleaned his ears out for him

    I was home-bound today. Every time I walked by that rear window, I looked out at The Feeder Zone. I think you all know how that goes. One time, I scanned it and found a nutter just beside himself with excitement over the bounty he'd found under the bird feeder. I got the S510, took the scope...

    One more nutter to round out the weekend

    I had the motion sensor on almost all weekend, and a caught a couple little buggers after the bird food. This little guy was the latest. I had spent the afternoon developing a range card for the S510, from 10 yards out to 40. (Would you believe it's zeroed from 13 all the way to 30 yards!?)...
