    Umarex Jelous Zelos twins

    I hear ya about questions - in my case I was just looking for the best (lowest) price I could get the Zelos for. If I was buying something I might have questions on, or even if I was worried about warranty, I would order from a known, stocking dealer.

    Umarex Jelous Zelos twins

    I used "notjustguns" to find Kind Sniper LLC - they offered the Zelos for less than Dacks, and had it to me 4 days after purchase. The refund I got from Dacks came the same day, so I not only got the rifle, but a few dollars in my pocket as well. I am OK with how it ended, and will simply tell...

    Umarex Jelous Zelos twins

    I did read the message, waited the 30 days and heard nothing from them, waited 5 more, got a message that said my order was "being processed, but that did not mean it was being shipped," etc... On the 45th day I finally asked for a ship date, which they could not provide. It took several more...

    Umarex Jelous Zelos twins

    I have written elsewhere that I ordered my first .25 Zelos from Dack's Outdoors. A day or two later I read a bunch of horror stories about Dack's, so purchased another .25 Zelos elsewhere while I waited to see how Dack's would play out. The second Zelos arrived in a few days - nothing from...

    Macavity Arms MA-2 STOCK

    These may help - you remove the butstock from the tube by pulling straight down on the adjustment lever and sliding it backwards - it should pull right off. The "tops" of the tubes turn to release them from a slot in the stock. They won't come out when the stock is on the tube, as the tabs hit...

    Macavity Arms MA-2 STOCK

    I think if you remove the butstock from the main tube, you can turn and release the covers on each side tube.

    Umarex New Zelos Inbound!

    You won't gain anything by turning up the Huben bottle reg. It is actually good to have it set close to the guns set pressure of 2050psi, as the guns reg won't have to work so hard. Leaving it where it is is fine, too - the Huben allows you to fill the bottle to higher pressure - many of the CF...

    Umarex New Zelos Inbound!

    I had not seen the bad experience(s) until right after I placed the order - figured I would give it a shot. It was a bad idea on my part. As mentioned, at least I have one in hand that I am enjoying - I will eventually get the second, one way or another.

    Umarex New Zelos Inbound!

    Be warned - DO NOT ORDER FROM DACKS! 45 days with no communication at all. Finally I got a notice that my order was "in processing - but this does not mean shipped". They were unable to provide a timeframe for actual shipping, so a refund was requested. 5 days and counting since a full refund...

    Umarex New Zelos Inbound!

    I've got 1 .25 I have been playing with for a couple of weeks, and should have a second inbound (if DRACS actually ships). Plan to have one set up for pellets and lots of plinking, and one for heavy slugs. I added 4 asymmetrical baffles to the shroud after adding a couple of small vent holes at...

    Umarex Umarex Zelos hammer spring

    0.2" is 2/10ths, or 1/5th of an inch. If easier, in metric it would be @5.0mm

    Umarex Umarex Zelos hammer spring

    I am new to this conversation, but I have been playing with a .25 Zelos for a little while now. The biggest improvement I have been able to get out of the gun came after I changed out the valve spring for something softer. I also made a new spring adjuster, but the same results can be had from...
