Looking for someone to do a custom barrel and shroud for a couple of Rattlers and Sidewinders.

At first for the only reason I was a little reluctant to buy one of this bigger cal .30 airguns was because the incredible noise (blast) they produce since I only shot them in my backyard. But after seeing this Joe Brancato video shooting this two FX MK2 and MK3 Impacts it looks like if you detuned to shot them with pellets instead of slugs at a more lower speeds below 900 fps, they become very backyard friendly if used with a good moderator like this DonnyFL shogun. But this is the catch the only FX airgun that I really like are the new model king with their incredible beautiful GRS stock. Just wondering if this new models will be as quiet as the Impacts from having their barrels completely shrouded. My favorite stock color is the green mountain laminated. I would like to know some opinions on this. Thanks.

Does anyone know if the shroud on the panthera and panthera compact are used for sound moderation ?

I got a text yesterday morning from the farmer saying the coyote has been digging around the compose where a stillborn calf was buried. I have shot one at the same spot back in July of this year, that was my Coyote#7.

So I decided to stop by last night around 8:45pm to setup and got ready from my shooting spot from the 2nd floor window of the barn next to the compose area. The target area was 17-20 yards, downward. I mounted my Impact MK2 on the tripod and took a test shot at a spot on the concrete barrier. POI was about 1/4" high and I reminded myself to aim a bit lower. I have no idea if the coyote was going to show up or not.

I had to sit and wait for 4 hours 4 feet from the window ledge, occasionally stood up and did some stretching. Luckily it wasn't too cold last night and I was dressed warm. I didn't get a chance to retrieve the trailcam footages which I had placed about 15 feet from the target area. I was using it as a indicator with the red IR lights to alert me when it detects motion. Strangely it never came on when the coyote showed up just like the last coyote shoot. Trail cam was working as it captured me when I was at the spot after.

So sitting in the dark, I was trying to keep myself alert and had my eyes glued down towards the field below. Periodically scan the field and at the trail cam with my binoculars. The night wasn't too dark and I was able to see fairly well even with my old aging eyes.

The coyote came at 12:20am and I spotted it in the field about 35-40 yards away. I quickly got off my seat and got behind my gun without making any sudden movement or noise. I pressed the on button on my Pard007S which was on a standby mode and immediately turned on my side mounted external 850nm IR light.

I scanned the ground and found the coyote in my scope view. My heart began to race and adrenaline was flying high. I told myself to breathe and remain calm. I got this.

The coyote was walking around looking for scraps in the grass field. It found something to chew and ate whatever it was. I followed my cross hair on its head. Looking back at the recorded footage, I had two moments where I could have squeezed off a shot but I didn't. Mainly because I wasn't sure how far the coyote was at the time and I didn't want to make an error. So I waited and continued to watch it thru my scope. It made a lot of movement as they often do, and it finally came closer to the concrete embankment.

The compose area was enclosed with two concrete blocks stacked in a U shape. The height was probably 5' high. The side of the barrier obscured my view as the coyote was behind it scavenging for the dead calf. I only saw the top part of its head and upper back as it moved in and out of view. At one point I lost track of it, thinking that it was gone. I began to panic a little bit and told myself to take the shot when it pops up in view next.

Well, it did and I got my cross hair right on the back of its head. I squeezed off the shot and the H&N 25gr Gen2 slug blasting thru my 600mm Slug Liner A barrel at 967 fps at its indented target. Everything seems to be in slow motion. I could still hear my heartbeat and the anticipation of the slug penetrating thru the back of the coyote's skull with unstoppable force. The slug hit where I had aimed but the coyote had moved its head to the right and downward. I saw the coyote dropped down and I thought "Yes, I got it."

I unmounted my gun off the tripod and began to walk thru the barn, down the stairs and towards the target area. I was filled with excitement and satisfaction that I got lucky and tagged my coyote#8. A hunt that was not planned, at least not this visit, and I got lucky to encounter this coyote on this night.

It took me probably 2-3 minutes to reach the spot. I had my flash light eagerly scanning the area and at the spot. WTF? Where was the body. I turned around and started searching the area with my flash light. I couldn't see it. Where could it be? I clearly saw the coyote dropped down after the shot. Oh my god, did I missed?

I looked around for a bit more and went back to the compose area hoping to see some blood trace, but found none. Yup, I was shocked and disappointed for failing to tag this coyote. What went wrong? I gathered my gear and removed the trail cam and headed home. The whole drive home was puzzling and filled with mixed emotions.

I loaded up the SD card into my computer and reviewed the footages multiple times both in real time and slow motion. I saw exactly what I recalled seeing thru the night vision scope. The coyote was hit, but how did it run away. I went to bed around 2pm, tossing and turning. I didn't get a good sleep.

This morning I reviewed the footages again and my conclusion is that the coyote had turned to the right and down as the slug hit the upper part of its head. It looked like I just got the skin. I hope it survives without too much pain. I didn't want to have a badly injured coyote running around.

I will be heading back to the farm and set up my trail cam again to see if I might get lucky to capture more activity in the next little while.

I know I will probably get a lot of criticism for missing this shot and potential injuring this coyote. But it happened and I apologize for missing my shot.

I was so close to tagging my coyote#8. Darn it.

I just got into altaros slugs (specifically the 50gr and 60gr 25 cal both at 850fps 80fpe and 96fpe) and was wondering how effective they are on game such as raccoons, opossum, woodchucks, coyotes, and such any results/ info would be appreciated.

The holy grail of pre charged pneumatics!

Here’s your chance to own a piece of PCP history and one of the most sought after models in existence. This is a full auto, electrically actuated, pre charged pneumatic rifle, built by South Korean manufacturer Evanix. With almost a liter of onboard air, an electric trigger, a FACTORY SELECT FIRE SWITCH, and beautiful wood work all while maintaining a slim and sleek profile these are extremely sought after and almost never available! Package includes the Evanix Giant .25 (serial number: 0413H011791) with full/semi select switch, 2 mags (1x 9rd OEM, and 1x 10rd 3rd party), instruction manual, two fill adapters (1x OEM, 1x 3rd party). OEM battery, OEM charger, and will also include a smart charger with whichever select fire Evanix sells first. The scope and stand are not included.

I believe in absolute transparency as I’ve been burned on pre-owned items which is why I have close up shots of any areas that aren’t mint. Written description of imperfections would include marring on the pressure gauge (cosmetic only). Minor wear on the right side of the wood stippling of the hand grip. Wear on the anodizing on the edge of the barrel cap, wear on the inside of the barrel cap from pellets. Hairline fracture on acrylic window to see internals (on basically every Evanix full auto in existence).

The rechargeable battery is rated for 500 shots and you can easily buy new ones as they’re the same type used in airsoft so you’ll never have an issue getting more. This is one of my two select fires and I’m not happy about parting with this one or the GTL 480 big bore but I live in a small apartment in the city so looking back this was never going to work. Looking for $1.8k.

I know this is a big purchase so please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions!

Will consider Leshiy 2 barrels/mags as partial payment.

We are excited to share the FX True Ballistics Chronograph is on sale! Get yours while they last:

Ok so this is just proof of concept at this point and I won't be able to really test it until tomorrow but I can't imagine it won't show some promise. This idea was borrowed from the Theoben pistons and applied to work in a spring piston gun.

Ok so what we had was a gun with a heavy solid steel 55gr top hat as seen below:



While tuning a new gun for lower power I decided to ditch this top hat for a lightweight top hat. What I did was basically clone the factory top hat and drill out the center. It came to 7g so basically 48g lighter. Huge difference.

I then went to do some testing and thats where it went off the rails a bit. With 8.44gr I was getting pretty decent bounce and the shot cycle just felt off. I switch to a lighter 7gr and the gun felt perfect. Ok, so let's add a bit of weight to the piston and see what happens.

Then I got bored and decided to get creative. What I did was make a new top hat but this time only drilling 3/4 of the way through. I then added a little breather hole at the base of the guide as well as the top (pics below)



These holes are there to prevent a free floating brass weight, turned just slightly loose for the bore of the guide, from getting caught up in a vacuum when the piston fires. The brass weight is roughly 1/2" shorter than the open length of the top hat and weighs 22.5g (over 3x more than the top hat) so it can move back and fourth free. When the piston fires, the brass rod gets sucks to the back of the top and theoretically removes most of its weight/mass from the piston. As the piston bounces off the pocket of air, inertia pulls the brass weight forward and immediately adds 22gr to the piston to fight any bounce. More pics below:



After running a quick test afterwards, the excess bounce is relieved and the gun SEEMS to behave better. I'm off to class now so I can't do any further testing but tomorrow I'll scope it and see how it does. I'm hopeful for some positive results.

Hi, new to the scope market, looking for a scope that would work well
for shooting air guns at a range from 30 to 100 yards, what power?
looking for $150 to $300 range. thanks for your input.

Hi guys I have been working on some products for the FX Panthera and king.
I will be making these magazines and grips for FX impact also. I am working on them now.

The Grip is a game changer. It puts your hand right underneath the trigger. This forces you to pull the trigger straight back, really helps with accuracy. The setscrew allows you to adjust how far out you want to set the setscrew to feel it when you put your thumb on the grip. . This gives you a really controlled pinch to the trigger. The grip helps mediate trigger pull to the right, giving you the edge at the benchers competitions.
I have black and Dessert tan


I also made a different style of cocking lever. Feels really good when cocking.

Belt magazine clips onto your pants and also you can add a screw (included) so you can slide your belt threw the clip holder incase too like to wear a belt.
There is a set screw on the back that adjust the tension to hold the magazine in the clip.

Orange part is an Empty chamber flag, you can add a Key ring and flag to it. It just slides into the chamber and keeps the bolt open wile there is a cold line.

If your interested PM Me

I got a new printer and been having fun making parts.

So I am completely new to the PCP game. I have powder burners and a break barrel but no PCP's until now. I ordered a Kral Puncher Jumbo and now I have to figure out how I am going to fill it. I pretty much don't want to mess with manual pumping. I am 60 but still in great health and condition but the thought of pumping a gun up for 200-300 strokes just doesn't sound even a little fun. So from what I gather you can get a compressor or get bottles and have them filled. I am curious how many fills you get with a 60 minute SCBA bottle? 30 minute? And what about using a SCUBA tank instead of the SCBA? How much in extra parts will I need to purchase to interface with the bottles? As for compressors which one? Is it better to get a compressor and bottle/s and just fill up the bottles? I have a huge shop air compressor and it sucks you can't use that monster.......LOL! I know I have a million questions but you folks all seem quite friendly and willing to help a newbie out and I thank you in advance for any and all advice!

I was trying best scope on my Sidewinder .30 for a hunting I will go on next days.

With one of the scopes (a West with beautiful reticle) that works well on my Uragan .22 the Sidewinder shoots really bad. I mounted back the scope it used to have and the rifle is perfectly accurate, with pellets holes touching at 50 yards.

Why the scope that works on the Uragan .22 does not work at all on the Sidewinder?

Explanations are welcome for me to learn.

Hello everyone, I was wondering if anyone has a contact at Crosman management? The reason I ask is that I have let's say an issue with an item I purchased and have communicated via. E-mail, and phone (customer service) and haven't received what I would consider "good" customer service. I'm not here to smash Crosman I'm a fan and own and have gifted Crosman air guns. I'm just trying to give Crosman an opportunity to make this "issue" right . Hopefully I will not have to share a bad experience about a company that I have trusted in. I believe in sharing information both good and bad on experience's I've had with any product/customer service so that others have the ability to make a informed decision on a purchase.

$450 Omega carbon fiber tank, 4500 psi , with kinkless hose and fittings. Included carry bag. Purchased brand new in 2018 , still in perfect like new condition . Shipping included

Of course, none of the bidders had much feedback, so maybe “something is rotten in Denmark"

While on a squirrel hunt a few days ago I either misplaced or lost my factory mag.
90% of the time I use a single loader but at times I use the mag and like having one when I want or need to use it. (I prefer to use the mag when it's cold out when im wearing gloves) I have a after market mag for it but it does not do well with slugs. (Prophet 1 compact 177) I seen in a post awhile back of a new mag the iguana hunter was making... Ordered one up and received it today... It works great for slugs in 177... Cycles perfect.. I like how easy it is to load like the factory mag and that it has a sealed back... If you don't give the factory mag a little tap after loading slugs will fall out.. I'm impressed with his new mags... So far so good.... Fair price too..

What did you do today?

Sort pellets?
Mount a scope?
Shoot a rifle you have not had out in awhile?
Checked some seals?
Checked to make sure all screws are tight?
You name it.

I’m trying to stay away from the buy/receive haha
This thread is to promote what you already have.

I took my Pard NV008 off my Notos and put it on my P35 25 cal. I zeroed using my ZB mount to my required distances. I also set up a camera to alert me to the critters I’m after. There are some larger critters that need some lead at night. I also plan on installing the plenum and barrel kit as well as some buck rail stuff on the notos.

So I would like to thank my good buddy, Joseph for letting get at this Fx impact. Can’t wait to shoot. Love working with these rifles and made a lot of good friends doing it Isn’t that what it’s about
