    Can someone please steer me in the right direction? I have gone through 3 air pistols as I'm constantly adjusting the sights. They seem to move after shooting a few times. I could just scream! Isn't there a pistol that doesn't need so many adjustments? Help? 😭

    House Sparrows

    Hello all, it's been awhile since my last post. It's taken a long time to adjust the rear and side sights to the Rugers Mark IV. Yesterday, I did not see the sparrow fly away after shooting. I checked the ground and nothing. But today, the sparrows flew away when they saw my face in the kitchen...

    Umarex done me good!

    Sorry it took so long for the update. They sent a good airgun to replace the defective one. They also sent extra pellets and a pair of safety glasses that I did not order. I'm a happy camper! Today, I think I nicked a house sparrow. It flew sideways towards the neighbors garage instead of...

    Umarex

    Delete if not allowed but I think I'm in the correct forum. Purchased an Umarex Browning Mark Buck URX from Amazon. The rear sight was defective and notified Umarex. They agreed to send a replacement after I return the defective one. They received it 7 days before Christmas. (Monday) Wednesday...

    Not looking for recommendations, yet.

    My impression was the call volume with their customer service is high and they control it by blocking numbers. I could be wrong but that's how I perceived it. I'm not expecting them to honor the guarantee and I let them know it! I received a response from them and they denied blocking my number...

    Not looking for recommendations, yet.

    When I realized my airgun was defective, Umarex said they'd replace it. After that conversation, they blocked my number. Everytime I called, the call was terminated before it rang. Using a different phone, I called again and the order has not been processed/shipped after they received it Monday...

    Defective airgun

    General discussion requires a question?

    Defective airgun

    After many adjustments on the rear sight, the screw came out with the spring. Umarex said, since I purchased the air gun from Amazon it may have been defective as Amazon buys products not knowing they're defective. They also said my pistol has been discontinued and they're happy to replace it...

    Thank you! It is so refreshing to openly discuss anti-sparrrow efforts without being criticized or shamed. The information you shared is valuable and I will consider your suggestions for future purchases. Again, thank you!

    Rear sight adjusted

    Well I decided to read on adjusting the rear sight. It was off by nearly 3". No wonder why I wasn't hitting anything. Blamed it on the trigger earlier. Now let's see if I can make contact with HOSP. I'm new to using air guns, bear with me.

    Umarex Browning buck mark urx pistol. Pulling the trigger interferes with the aim. May have to invest in something better in the future but for now, I'll make the best of it.

    Between the sparrow trap and the air gun, currently working on it. Gonna need an optic tho.

    House Sparrows

    Yes, the females are bullies at the feeders but the males destroy bird eggs from nests. I have Robin's that have not been able to successfully raise young for 2 years because of HOSP and starlings. I love bird's too but not all brown ones at the feeders. Your wife has good taste. 👍

    House Sparrows

    Thanks for letting me join. Do people dislike house sparrows as much as me? I just purchased an air gun, not really sure if I made contact but I'm seeing way less sparrows than using a sparrow trap.
