    Any guns you regret buying"

    Good post. I've had guns that were highly tauted, expensive PBs that I just did'nt like. Why? Iduno. I also have "cheap" airguns like the Diana Chaser and Notos that I love. The upper end Airguns I have (s510 Xtra and a few others) I like.

    Gamo Gamo Arrow help

    So I bought a .177 Gamo arrow to scratch an itch for a backyard plinker. Stock it's pretty accurate shooting 8.64g H&N pellets @ about 1000fps. Too fast for what I want. As most know there is no HS adjustment, however spring replacement is the easiest option. I bought 10 springs on Ali express...

    Other Which Bullpup style .177

    I have a Hatsan Jet in .177 & had issues with accuracy and a broken poppet valve. Maybe shortsided but I wont buy another Hatsan.

    Would the unregulated version match the reg one in accuracy?

    Other Which Bullpup style .177

They are: Snowpeak T-Rex($246), Snowpeak P35($443), Brocock Compatto XR non-regulated and regulated($779 & $899), and finally the Brocock XR Sahara($1299). I wont lie that cost/value mean a...

    RAW Rapid RAW HM1000 X Questions.

    I agree with this totally as I also went through the same thing first hand. A good cleaning and LIGHT lubing brought back the accuracy I was accustomed to. Give it a go. Worth the effort!

    Other Most accurate 50yd PCP airgun shooting .22cal pellets

    The Krait looks nice and reviews very well. These Czech airguns seem to do as well as LW barreled guns.

    Other Most accurate 50yd PCP airgun shooting .22cal pellets

    I own a RAW HM1000x in .22cal that shoots very well, but I'm thinking about another 50yd .22cal PCP that will keep up with it just for fun. I've seen great reviews on FX Impact and Crown, Epic Two, BRK Ghost and Taipan Vet 2. I want accuracy but also something I can take pride in as far as...

    Projectiles 22 cal pellets and slugs

    I have 14 full tins of JSB 25.39gr pellets and 6 full boxes of FX 22gr slugs for sale. I've had these for years and probably won't use them as I've moved on to other endeavors. These are new / never opened. They were both equally VERY accurate in my RAW HM1000x at 50yds. I'll take special care...

    RAW Rapid (Update) HM1000X reg tester

    Thank you. Sounds easy, but I wonder if the blanking plug is threaded BPS or NPT since its made in US but originated as Daystate in UK?

    RAW Rapid (Update) HM1000X reg tester

    How do you actually test the Reg pressure? Fire and then check pressure or will it show correct Reg setting when srewed in?

    What cheap guns are actual bargains?

    Honestly, you can't go wrong with any of these( Notos, JTS, Urban ) as well as a few high end rifles (RAW, BSA R10, AA510S) As I said before, I have all three mid-priced rifles and enjoy each one for different reasons. I agree with the prior post regarding JTS value and EXCELLENT affordable...

    What cheap guns are actual bargains?

    If hand pumping to fill then I would choose the Notos. Really good accuracy at 25yds (havent tried further) with 16 or 18gr JSBs, AAs, or FX pellets. Even the cheep crosman HP pellets shot well. Its a winner in my book. Not to confuse things more, but I started with the JTS Aircuda standard and...

    What cheap guns are actual bargains?

    I have three of these (Gamo Urban, JTS Aircuda and the Notos) All GREAT choices, but If I had to choose only one it would be the Urban. I wasn't sure about the bolt action but have come to love it. It really is a lot of gun for the $. Any of these are winners though

    Any guns you regret buying"

    I have two regretable airgun purchases. First one was a Hatsan Jet1 in 177. Got it on sale. Thought it was a good buy, but proved very inaccurate with numerous pellets. After shooting about 200 rounds the poppet valve stem broke causing internal damage. I fixed it but its not the same. I use it...
