Hello all, new fella here. I plan on buying an FX impact m4 soon but want to have all my ducks in a row first as far as having the ability to re-fill. If I were to buy a GX CS3-I compressor...what other items do I need to get to get (In -line filter)? And what fittings etc do I need to ensure I can hook it up to the Impact? Thanks in advance for any help, I'd appreciate it.

FWIW
FX gun owners that use eBay may find it interesting that Cape Fear Airguns is now selling on the platform
Here is a link

just my 2 bids

Anyone have one? I've been a fan of STO for awhile after having their insert on the Evols that do incredible for their size. Now I'm not using it for quieting down the loudest guns out there actually very quiet guns but it's just to get them near silent, being my Vet Long and my Mutant Short. I like the size, weight and price so gonna try it out. Curious of other opinions.

Thanks for looking..

I have a like new Accutac BR4 G2, with the picatinny QD mount. I've had this a few years, I've gotten out of really shooting what airguns I have left. And this has just been sitting in my safe. Asking 200 shipped TYD. I have excellent feedback on AGN so deal with confidence. Any questions please let me know. I had another one that was an arca QD mount, sold it , but got the boxes mixed up. That's why the box says arca mount. Thanks for looking.

I thought all FWB300 had a long barrel sleeve? This gun is so front heavy with long barrel/sleeve, it's almost better this way!

I would like to thank mubhaur for the custom made front plenum part for my impact m3. The single o ring part fixed the issue of low fps on first few shots. Custom part is much better than the standard fx part. Have had no issue since part was installed.

Used Airforce Condor SS in .25 cal with the Blue frame. Currently shooting 34gr pellets @ 920fps for ~64fpe while still being impressively quiet for the power. In great condition with a few marks but in good working order. Asking $415 shipped CONUS.

So I got a Daisy 887 and 888 for my kids to start out 4h 10 meter and silhouettes. They use a 2.5 oz mini cylinder. I know I can get these filled at a paintball shop.

I own my own business and work real odd hours so im trying to figure out what it would take to fill them at home. I can get a C02 bottle from the local gas supplier. I know I have to either invert them or get one with a snorkle tube. I learned on another thread here that the Daisy part number 5861 (which is no longer available). Is the adapter needed but I should be able to cludge something together with parts available. What I don’t know is what attachments I need to get the bulk CO2 connected to my adapted tank and regulate that. Can anyone give me guidance here?

If you love to shoot airguns and live in the Baltimore DC region it's worth checking out the Izaak Walton League Club in Damascus Maryland. The chapter has an outdoor 50 yard range with covered benches that is exclusively for the use of airguns; this range is very lightly used. Longer distance shooting is allowed on the 75 and 100 yard ranges that are shared with firearm shooters. The chapter also has a dedicated 12 lane Field Target range that hosts matches organized by DIFTA.

Sadly with the decline in interest in the shooting sports, Izaak Walton League chapters across the US are losing members. We need new blood to keep our ranges open.

Post here or PM me if you have questions about the Chapter.

Pellet liner. I don’t need this barrel kit nor the accessories with it. Last .30 cal barrel kit on here with a moderator sold for $300.

I’m including a magazine too.

$200 shipped.

Decided to air the old BSA spitty today, one from the collection that hasn't left the rack for over 4 years now.....



.....and as soon as I started shooting, had a bit of a face palm moment questioning why I'd left it sooooo long.

Yeah I know this should really be in the PCP section, but there is no doubting these unusual rifles are 'traditional'.

Being a springer man, it really messes with your senses breaking the breech open, and setting the hammer with just the slightest of force. Once you've locked the barrel and settled in for the shot, the springer feeling kicks in again, until...you let the trigger off and......almost nothing....just a quiet pop! It really takes some getting used too!

I rebuilt this one about 4 years ago, and did some slight mods to the valve (increased poppet size to reduce flow through throat) and now its returning around 55 usuable shots at 11fpe before there is a notable drop.....quite impressive from its tiny little 50cc ish cylinder.

If you ever get the chance to own or try one....go for it. These BSA barrels are superb, the faux 2 stage trigger can be made light and crisp, and the overall shooting experience is a refreshing break from the norm.....

Have 3 scopes. Bushnell Elite 4200 4-16x40 standard duplex $325.00, Bausch Lomb Elite 4000 4-16x40 standard duplex $350.00, Bushnell Elite Tactical 5-15x40 Mil-Dot $350.00 All scope nice shape were on rim fire rifles

I have a Barra 250z in excellent working condition gun functions as it should very accurate and powerful. It has a custom paint job. No scope included. It has bipod skeleton stock 0° for grip
Looking to sale for $385 lower 48

Over the last few months it seems my dream guns keep coming up for sale. This time a late model .22 AAA Paradigm. I just couldn’t help myself. To offset the cost, I’ve got a few from my stable for sale . A few that I never thought I’d ever move on. I’ve even started moving a few powder burners. Man I can’t wait to get my hands on this one. Not sure if the seller visits here or not , if he does. Thank you.

Now I need to get up to speed on what makes this rifle tick.

I’m reading through the Evol master thread now , but right off the top are there any recommendations? Yes I have a pile of JSB MRDs what else?

For years I have been financially disciplined denying myself any and all luxuries as a security guard in Southern California I had no choice. However, I decided to reward myself with a new PCP rifle and I diligently researched my purchase for many months and finally settled on the Barra 250z .25 caliber. I purchased a scope, silencer, stainless steel screw kit, o-ring kit, and a trigger kit before I ordered the rifle. Having watched all the YouTube reviews on the gun, their was unanimous agreement that the trigger on the 260z was a spongy, gritty disappointment.

When my gun arrived, I disassembled it, cleaned the barrel, inspected all the o-rings, cleaned up all the excess factory grease, polished a few parts, and then I made a devastating mistake that would take me down a dark rabbit hole and ultimately shatter me and lead me to writing this post. I installed the Rogue Trigger Kit thinking that it would be a significant improvement at least, but was disappointed. It didn't solve the spongy, unpredictably breaking ,gritty trigger. Now he who has never sinned may cast the first stone, but I had the audacity and stupidity to punch out a roll pin holding a sear in the trigger mechanism in order to polish a couple surfaces in hopes I could reduce some of the grittiness. I had no idea of the pandora's box I had just opened.

After a little cleaning up of the sear edges, I proceeded to put the trigger back together. The first sign something was wrong, was the tiny spring in the center of the trigger mech had exploded out of it's place when I punch out the roll pin. No, it didn't go flying into oblivion, that would happen later. I was trapped in a awkward position that after about 6 hours of working with a couple picks I could not get the tiny spring back into place. IN fact, I couldn't even see why or where it was stuck since it was at the center of the trigger mechanism. I finally concluded that the only way back was to punch out another roll pin to give myself room to move another sear out of the way with a pick and return the spring back into position. As I type this, I can't help but notice that words at this point simply cannot describe the experience of trying to fix this problem, but I will give you a thumbnail sketch of the never-ending torcher chamber I found myself in.

I am not an octopus and have but two hands. I am holding the block and using gravity to manipulate the loose sears requiring me to constantly bend over and turn the block at just the right speed and position to try and get things into position again, all the while fighting the fact that light travels in a straight line and it is impossible to see around dark tiny corners. This goes on literally all night until 4 am when my cognitive functions and emotional control abandoned me and I grabbed a pair of hemostats, and ripped the blanking spring out. Of course, this resulted in a spring that was contorted, twisted, and stretched beyond repair. I wisely went to bed.

After another fun day at work doing armed security at a huge retail shopping plaza where I am the guy they call whenever there is any angry, insane, drunk or drugged out belligerent person no one else can deal with. I return to my trigger project day 3. I start with a feeble misguided attempt to bend and twist the spring back into a working form for 2 hours until I accept the futility of the effort. I then get on eBay and order a kit of 230 tiny springs with 23 different sizes and shapes and wait for a few days. When it arrives, II look at the assortment and think, "Yes! I nailed it." However, on closer inspection I realize no I didn't. Springs have many specifications, including some I am sure I am not even aware of. Lets just start with the basics. There is the thickness of the wire, the length of the spring, the outer diameter of the spring coils, the number of coils, etc. At first glance, a spring might look like another spring but upon closer inspection you realize they aren't even close.

I am not a quitter and I get the brilliant idea that I could combine a couple springs which are about the same size, intertwine them, super-glue both ends and Walla....I will save you the horrific details of that endeavor and skip forward to 7 hours later at 3 am after dremmeling out some of the holes in the sears to fit the springs. I went to sleep so I could wakeup at 6 am for another fun day at work. Now, just repeat that last sentence 2 more times with changing details different days.

I am so far past done with this, that I am going to have to call Webster's Dictionary and tell them they need to add another word for where I am because there are none that even begin to scratch the surface of describing where I am mentally and emotionally. Hyper-frustrated, super-irritated, exhausted, angry, and teetering on the edge of completely losing it, whatever form that may take, I don't know.

So, I gathered myself and started with first principles of problem solving. First, I needed to clearly define my outcome which is the following: To find the shortest, least expensive path to solve this problem permanently, in the most expeditious way possible. I would prefer a completely different or an after market trigger, as I think replacing mine with another factory trigger that sucks is not an optimal solution, but I don't know even what is technically possible. I have destroyed my trigger. and I am so damaged psychologically and emotionally that I never, for the rest of my existence, will work on a trigger again, how ever long that may be. So, then it comes down to money, of which I have none, as I over-extended on this entire venture. I have no idea what it costs, or even who do I seek out to solve this problem. My gun before I was able to even take one shot, has become an oversized paperweight. I have humbly exposed my stupidity as a tale of caution to others and deserve any and all criticisms and blame. I did this to myself and take full responsibility. My only question is "Can someone please point me in the direction where I can get off this ride, I don't want to be here anymore."

We in NorCal are blessed to have Scott Schneider (Motorhead AG Tuning Services) and Cameron Kerndt (camsprecisionairguns) as local field target competitors and friends to buy guns from, tune/modify guns and share their combined state, national and world champion field target experience and tutoring. They've improved my shooting skills and enjoyment immensely.

Three of these guns have been graced with their airgunsmith skills and they are shooters. Only the 1701P remains untouched except for the addition of a Williams air gun rear sight.

I just acquired the Daystate for an "I can't pass it up" price from a fellow FT competitor and while it doesn't fit the image of a target gun it is amazingly accurate, has a fabulous trigger, to my eye is the most beautiful air rifle currently produced and is infinitely easier to carry afield than the magnificent Steyr which, in its current configuration, is a handful of a gun.

I seldom post "Lookie what I have" pictures at random, but I thought I'd share these, being as I am a spring gun guy and never wanted to own a PCP, lol.

The police came today and said that they had a complaint from one of my neighbors, that I am shooting 22LR in my yard.
The officer saw it was Air Rifles and saw that the backstops were more than sufficient.
Then he came back later and said to his shock and amazement, he had found that our parish, (county), lists airguns as fire arms that can not be discharged within 1000 feet of a state road!

So,,,,, My property is 540 feet deep.

Hello

I have Fx drs Classic 500 .22 , setter 120 bars regulator , with 16 grn Pellet how Many shot I can esperate ? 220 bars to 180 bars I only shot 10 pellets, look big consumption air for 10 shot What is your shot count ?
Thanks

Saw a starling scoping out the barn recently, I'll be picking them and the sparrows off from the trees and lawn with my Taipan long in the BOG deathgrip out of the upstairs window soon enough. Taking care of these pests when they are perched for the night would be fun and effective as well. I also am going to building a chicken coop inside the barn this year, and will have feed in there, so rats might take an interest, although I think if I keep the feed secure that will be unlikely. We also got new doors put on the barn which will make getting into the upper area easier, and I know that pigeons like to roost up there and do their mini manure spreader imitation.

So, the barn gun project continues.

I currently have a Brocock Ranger, which is fine. I find it cramped, but I expected it to be so, not a knock on it, just the nature of the little beast. I put a 3-9X Bugbuster with illuminated reticle, and a red flashlight on it, thinking I could use the light for finding birds, and set the reticle to green so it shows up well against the red. The problem is, trying to operate the light really makes the gun feel cramped, and I just hate using it.

I think my next step probably is trying a digital night vision scope. Maybe the Ranger will suddenly shine and, even if I still decide it is not the gun for me and my orangutan arms, the night vision can be transferred to another, slightly longer, pellet delivery device.

So after numerous attempts to get this at my comfort level I’m considering getting a different stock such as the LRT but am open to other suggestions.
Just can’t seem to get my eye in the right position without getting a stinkin crick in my neck!
I bought an Element 14x50 immersive to get that close eye relief I like.
But I’m still finding I need a riser to get it up enough to semi comfortable too.
Maybe someone wants to swap out this one for a different one?

I do a combination of hunting and some bench.

Greetings everybody. I'm test driving a new .22 P-2 and had some questions I hope you can answer. I tried doing a search, and didn't get too many hits.

The gun is shooting JSB 18.13 @ 970 fps. The instructions are not good regarding changing the hammer spring, but this gun only has one air gauge at the bottle. How does one change the regulator pressure? What's the default reg setting from the factory?

The gun came with the steel air reservoir. If I want to convert to carbon fiber, beside buying direct from RTI, where else (USA) can I look?
And can the bottle be removed from the gun while under pressure? the instructions that came with a gun were unclear.

And I got one mag with the gun. I'd like to buy a couple more if I keep the gun. How do CARM mags compare to stock? Any other brands I should consider?

Looks like a pull-thru cleaning system would work best, as I don't want to pull the barrel off every time I clean the barrel. Is everyone in agreement on this? And on the subject of barrel removal, if I do, is it necessary to re-zero?

And generally speaking, what's the typical break-in period before the action smooths out?

Thanks for looking!
