I set up a couple spinner targets I'm going to shoot with my HW95 .20cal during hurricane Milton, might get better at reading wind

Looking for a FX DRS Classic in .25 with either a 500mm or 600mm barrel (600mm 1st choice). If you have one that your interested in getting rid of send me some pictures and your price and lets see what we can get done. Your welcome to respond via AGN or text me directly at 847.715.6944.

I have moved my X-Sight 5 5-25 over to my crossbow for deer season, so I had to put the ATN THOR4 640 2.5-25x to work. Even in the daytime, the thermal scope discriminates not, and gets the job done year round!

I am still not sure if i want to let it go but I have my BRK Atomic .177 that is my incognito with the right moderator 35Y and under pester. I have mine set for 12FPE on high 10FPE on medium, and 8FPE on low. It is my mouse gun and to be honest it probably has the most kills since it's small, accurate, and quiet gets around 3 mags on a fill so around 40 shots. 1 original mag and 1 carm mag also has the upgraded top picatinny rail and side accessory rails as well as the hogue grip. Custom tune and trigger job from Derrick Wall. It has some wear on the under rail mount and it was a tripod shooter. I am open to trades not looking for anything specific so let me know what you have worst I can say is no thank you. $1050TYD

I have 46 tins total, 23 tins of each weight. Looking to sell because my hubens prefer AEA pellets. I've gone through 4 tins shooting them from my impact, dreamline, Taipan, notos and they shoot great and look great.


15.89GR SOLD

14.3gr SOLD

$10 a tin if you buy 5 or more
$13 a tin if you 4 or less.

Buyer pays shipping.

From what I am getting its shooting 45 shots per fill. Not bad.

Might be a good slug gun too...

I picked up an altaros booster (B2B edition) with the intent of running it into a regulator and shooting at 300bar or more. A bottle only lasts a few shots at those pressures... even my big 12L bottle isn't enough. It eventually worked out but it took a handful of modifications to the booster.

I found out pretty quickly that it was not intended to do what I wanted. The pump is controlled by a 5 port valve that toggles the pump back and forth. If there is air and electricity supplied, the valve will continue to toggle until it is disabled by the pressure switch. The problem is that the pump doesn't stop operating at the moment the switch activates... instead it will finish the final stroke of the pump and then stop. This causes the burst disk to blow if you hook up a regulator on the output. Of course it works fine if you use it as intended, by pumping from one bottle to another, but the a regulator will stop the flow in it's tracks even if the pump still has more to go before it stops.

I solved this by shutting down the driving air supply at the moment the set pressure is reached. This required an additional valve, a 3 port. First I tried a small 1/8 valve but the flow was too little and the pump wouldn't operate, hence the bulky 1/4" valve.



The original pressure switch also posed a problem. The hysterisis (difference between set and reset point) was huge, around 75bar. In order to operate my reg at 300bar I would have had 75 bar pressure swings on the input to the reg, from 325 to 400 bar. Too much... and the original switch didn't even go that high... so I shopped around and found a nice switch at automation direct. With independently adjustable set and reset points, and can operate at 12v it was perfect.



I wired this all up and used a power splitter to supply all of the electrnics from the usb-to-12v adapter cable. Fortunately the cable puts out just enough current to run all of the components from a usb power bank.

I made one more minor mod. It originally came with a piece of silicone tubing after the internal regulator (for dropping 300bar down to 120psi for operation of the pump). The tubing was there to burst like a fuse if the regulator were to fail. This tube had a very small bore causing a restriction, so I replaced it with a larger tube and installed an actual pressure relief valve.

This took about a month to put together... between shopping for different items, buying items with the wrong threads, finding unusual components etc. In the end it works flawlessly, and it's portable. I've got a small duffel bag on the way for easy transport to the range.

Side note.... fittings for this stuff is a major PAIN. China uses metric threads, everyone uses BSPT and BSPP sometimes, and the US uses NPT. Some use a face seal, some use a sealing washer, some use thread sealant, and nothing ever matches the fittings you have on hand. Major pain. Even best fittings only occasionally has what I need. In the end I got it all together but it took a few orders and 2 returns on amazon for mislabeled threads!


Will post a video next time I fire it up.

Not sure when or even if I'll make my new ballistic solver public, as most people already have their preference, but wanted to show off the work I put in this last week developing one that uses G1, GA, GA2, RA4, SLG0, SLG1, WC0, G7, and some other drag references, while also receiving input on what could or should be added if its not present already. Its a common 3DOF(+) ballistic solver using Euler's method to calculate drag. Nothing too fancy, was/is mostly a challenge to myself and to help myself understand some of the dynamics going on externally with projectiles during flight, all this and I have barely scratched the surface. The math involved for advanced ballistics is...certainly beyond me...but hey, don't let that set you back, I certainly didn't let it to me.


Below are a few screenshots, left side shows no effects added, while the right side shows all effects added, Spin drift, Magnus effect, Earth based effects which include Coriolis and Eotvos effect, and even the wind being included in zero, a feature I figured would hurt to add that I don't see currently in ballistic solvers. These effects are near meaningless under 200 yards, but really present themselves, more-so with airguns, once pushed beyond.

No added effects vs added effects



Spin drift, Earth based and Magnus effects=.09 / .32 mil at 150 yards = .5" and 1.75" difference, while not a lot, it grows rather quickly as you increase range, which airgunners are frequently doing as technology evolves. .08 of the .32 was the wind being zeroed, still 1.3" with that effect taken out.

The other cool feature is visually showing the vertical stringing. The FPS variance above is 50, and you can see on the reticle, horizontal lines that show where your high and low shots could wander to assuming your fps input used is in the middle. At 50 fps spread you could see upwards of 7" of vertical stringing in the above setup. 50 fps spread was used to show the extreme, as no one in their right mind will shoot 150 yards with a gun that has 50 fps spread, at least not out of enjoyment.


VS 20 fps spread which is calculated to cause roughly 2.6" vertical stringing. (Not shown, 5 fps is .6" vertical spread, at this distance with this setup, and 10 fps is 1.3")



Another neat feature is automatically updating weather that effects your shot. Each component from Temp, humidity, wind speed and wind direction can be set to auto or inputted manually. Its wild to see the effects here in Colorado as the temperature goes from 40F in the morning to 90F in the afternoon. Quite the shift in POA required.

Here is 40F vs 90F:




.52 mil + .23 mil which is quite a shift, and that assumes your gun isn't shooting at a greatly reduced fps in the cold, which it likely is, which would add even more drop.

If you have ideas / features that should be included, feel free to chime in! Happy shooting.

Hello, I'm wondering if anyone has tried AAO SUPER VALVE with the heavy hammer and magnum spring? If so I'd love to hear about your findings. I have a LSS and an SS in .457. Information on either rifle with the AAO setup would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hello I'm new to this forum . I'm trying to learn more about my R9 Beeman .20. From what I've seen this German made R9 appears to be somewhat rare? Any info and idea of its value would be great. Thank you.

I had a great time going out on public lands to go squirrel hunting! This was my 3rd or 4th time going out but my first time being successful this year. The success rate is completely connect to the acorn yield, so what may have been a hot spot a few years ago, can dry up completely the next year or so.



After walking about a mile, I came across some deer scat amongst some acorns, which was a good sign that there was food that squirrels would take a liking to. 20 minutes after my first still, I decided to press forward some 50 yards for another still and I saw some movement. My camo did a great job, as he had not a clue I was there even at 26 yards!

Anyone put a cheek riser on the stock notos? Is there any cheek raiser that will fit on the stock notos? Didn't want to purchase a new magpul stock and cheek rise. Was wondering if I can just purchase an cheek riser and use on the stock notos. Let me know if the one of the magpul will fit or any out there will fit on stock notos.

Hey guys

I have a modded normal Avenger. 22 that just made "full auto" noises like when a paintball gun or CO2 airgun are on last bits of air... went brrrrrrr like shot real fast back to back to back and watched the needles drop then rise again when it was done.

It has a light valve poppet spring and some other stuff done to it but it has stock hammer spring set at 4 turns I think.

Any idea what could cause this on a side lever gun? It did it twice in a magazine but not back to back.

Need new poppet or something? I didn't mess with hammer spring or regulator but did recently have to degas to replace an O ring on the plug for the bottle conversion. No idea why that would matter but just giving more info.

Thanks in advance!

I took my HPC .25 out today to site in a changed scope. I noticed that my POI was quite a bit lower than I expected. So I put the chrony on it and to my surprise it was going at 685 FPS where it had been going at 860! No air leaking that I could tell, but I’ll let it sit. I then upped the regulator pressure from 130 to 150 bar and the FPS went to 714. I moved the hammer spring between 3.5 and 4 with no effect. Since this is my first and only FX, I’m at a loss as to what caused the drop. It’s been rock solid up to now. Is there an o-ring that may have gone out that I need to look for? The gun is clearly quieter now than normal. Any help is appreciated.

The fx impact is the only gun that release a different model 1-2 years apart. It is the pcp airgun of Samsung and Apple phones lol. So the question is, buy the impact m4 now or wait 1-2 year for the m5? What features do you want to see in the m5?

Fx impact
Fx impact X
Fx impact mk2
Fx impact m3
Fx impact m4
Fx impact m5?? Maybe 2025-2026.

Hello I'm a first time lurker , I recently went to a range where a Air rifle club was shooting and I really enjoyed NOT heraing the Bang..
Those guys were having so much fun.
I inquired about one of the guys guns that was there and he offered to sell me one of his . It is a Virgin Model 54 with no scope .
It has a maple stock and by the pictures looks pretty good he said it was around a 2008 -10
I would like to know what they are worth this one looks like a 8 out of a 10 maybe .
If thats not a good brand what would be a good starter?

Willing to trade for smaller bullpup/compact.

Selling my .25cal BRK Ghost that is in excellent condition. The gun is currently tuned for 25.4 grain pellets at 910 FPS and shoots them very well. Comes with PRS rail and bag rider. If you have any questions shoot me a DM. $1700 shipped. PayPal. No trades.

I have an original 46M, unaltered grips.
Actually I have 2.
One I've modified and shoot winter air gun league with it.
So question do I keep #2 or move it along. Can't come up with a good reason to keep it.

Purchased in June 2024, one of the last new ones that was available in the original version. Absolutely great shooting airgun, I've just got three airguns that shoot very similarly and something needs to go. Still not sure this is the right choice. Cocking lever is on the left side, I'll swap it over to the right if the buyer prefers. I've added the DFL hammer spring adjuster and a picatinny rail. Shoots JSB's 18.1's in the mid 880's fps and gets around 80 shots. Scope, rings and laser are not included.

Dated 2019 this is a current model still available for order for 1849.00 from Pyramyd air and others. I purchased this one from AOA a while back, it had a crack at the wrist from shipping, it was still secured by the trigger guard which is part of the stock and was actually a little difficult to get the crack opened enough to get 30 minute epoxy to completely flow and coat the entire crack. After it was dry I added 2 U.S. government surplus threaded brass stock repair pins coated and back filled with the same epoxy. The repair is barely noticeable and is the strongest part of the stock. Other than the stock repair the gun is excellent and has seen little use. Has a nick under the stock which is pictured. Typical FWB accuracy and a quiet grenade launcher sound from the shorter than shroud Barrel. Holds air forever as I have never seen any evidence of loss. Includes the pictured 5 10mm butt plate spacers which sell for $20 each, the fill adapter and manual with factory test group. Will be shipped separated from the stock to keep costs down. 750.00 shipped 48 states. PayPal friends and family or add 3.5%.
