Hi @Steveoo, thank you for your reply. I hope you don't mind, and I realise this would be an imposition, but would you be able to put your information on (1) tuning the LP53 and (2) how to convert it to the "K", on one post? That would be an excellent "one-stop-shop" online resource for future...

This is a great pistol, @Steveo. I have an LP53 and have considered getting a gunsmith to do what you've done (I have neither the skills nor the tools to do it myself). However, my pistol is in good condition and has the original box and cocking knob, so I'm reluctant to shorten it...

I'm fifty and prefer springers. It's not just nostalgia, though: here in New Zealand only PCP air rifles (but not pistols) are licensed. Let's hope that doesn't change, by the way. Second, springers are self-contained, don't need dive bottles, and won't run out of air. Third, I like the...

Mine would be a BSF B55. It's light, powerful, made of traditional wood and steel, and accurate.

A further point about my Falke Model 60; as with a BSA Cadet I once owned, the quality of manufacture is impressive, with a forged-steel cocking bar and beautiful blued steel. This is especially impressive considering it would have served the same purpose as a Daisy BB gun.

Hi Moleeye, I have an old .177 Falke Model 60, which is also a great rifle to shoot. From its size I assume it's designed for ten-year-olds but has plenty of poke and is capable of one-hole groups (standing and unsupported) at 5m.

Could it be fitted with a less powerful spring for sale in a country with a limit on muzzle energy (e.g., Germany or the UK)?

As above, but to a certain extent it depends on where you are in the world: "suppressor" is most common in the US, whereas "sound moderator" is more commonly used in the UK. New Zealand seems to have followed the lead of the US in the last few decades, referring more and more to "twenty-two"...

Thank you, Mystical Dragon - all sorted now.

Hi all, Could the first person who reads this please post a "thumbs-up" - I want to see if I've set it up correctly so I get notifications by my username at the top right of my screen, but not by email. Thanks!

A great idea.

Thank you, everyone, for your kind words. I've been enjoying trawling through various posts and have already learnt quite a bit!

I've always wanted a West German (yes, it's that old) BSF B55N in .22, which was apparently sold in the US under the Bavaria or Wischo brand. It's a lightweight break-barrel with a walnut stock, producing over 10 ft.-lbs. ME. In keeping with its appearance, I'd put an old Burris 4x RF Mini...

Thank you, Ezana4CE - I've been having a look on that forum already. Some great reading here!

Hi all, I just thought I'd introduce myself. I've been shooting airguns for many years on and off, and my main interest lies in plinking and traditional German break-barrel spring-piston air rifles. My current air rifles are a Falke Model 70 and a two-year-old Weihrauch HW30S, both in .177. I...
