I have two M3's and both of them have stripped one M3 thread in different locations along the top rail. The very first time I took apart my M3 and removed the top rail I immediately noticed how shallow those M3 top rail screws are. I make it a point to use my torque driver and only use 10 in lbs when threading those in. The top rail is 8mm thick with a 3mm counter sink. So the M3 x 8mm screws are only threading into the module under the rail with 3mm of M3 thread. That's not a lot considering the alignment of the entire gun is dependent on that top rail keeping all of those modules tight and straight. FX really could have gone another 4mm and used M3 x 12mm instead so that we can get some torque on those screws.

Anybody else run into this?

Purchased this approximately two weeks ago, arrived this past week. Used it for two to three hours, long enough to determine:

1. It works exactly as advertised
2. Is easy to mount and change from rifle to rifle
3. The app works perfectly as long as you isolate the TRIGGERCAM WIFI from the home WIFI
4. I don’t have the expertise, time, skill, or patience to edit the videos anywhere to close to what is already available on line
5. All of have to shoot are reactive targets, no pests or birds - shoot one round of reactive targets and “you have seen it all”
6. I would rather spend what little time I have shooting and tuning rifles

In short, I don’t see myself being disciplined enough to use this fabulous system even close to its potential- might as well belong to someone that will take advantage of it.

Selling complete with the extra new micro SS cards I purchased to go with it and never used for $500 total shipped within the continental US.

replace FX M3 Impact moderator with one that is same diameter as barrel

I currently have a donny FL installed but would like to replace it with some sort of adaptor or moderator that is the same diameter as the stock 600mm barrel.
Does one exist? basically something to cover the threads/moderator delete

Stock taken off gun immediately after purchase. New no blemishes at all. $275.00 PayPal, conus.

Is this a reputable business.

Are there any good airgun smiths around to work on a couple old airguns I picked up recently? I have a Healthways Western Plainsman that doesn't puncture the CO2 cartridge and will probably need seals if it does along with a couple CO2 lever action rifles that need some love as well

thanks

For the past month I've been researching getting into PCP after my kids, nieces, and nephews had a fun day of shooting out at the farm I grew up on. They really enjoyed shooting my dad's break barrel pellet gun with a scope on it...as well as some powder burners. But my dog didn't enjoy the powder burners as much...nor did my ears.

Anyway - they had so much fun that I decided to pull some money out of a different hobby (pinball) and put it into PCP. The primary use will be plinking, paper, and I'd really like to try to get into some long(ish) range stuff at some point.

I know there are infinite ways of getting started, but here is what I'm currently thinking.

Air
Everything I've been reading seems to say the first decision should probably be "how do you plan to get air?" So this is what I'm thinking

Airmarksman Tank 74cuft 4500PSI $599
Scandinavian Arms Tank Bag $120
Local Scuba Shop Fills (confirmed) $15

Airgun(s)
Was originally thinking about getting a .22 and .177, but I think it might just be simpler to keep track of one caliber. Initially everything on YouTube pointed me to the FX Impact M3, but the more I thought about it, the harder it was to justify that much on a single gun...then I got to thinking maybe I could get 2 mid-priced guns. That would allow for more shooting time for my kids, nieces, and nephews (along with me, the uncles & papa )

I fell in love with the looks of the Sahara version of the Brocock Sniper XR and think it will be a great all-arounder. I also thought it would be cool to have the We The Plinkers Brocock Atomic XR package, but I kind of wanted to try something different. And I keep coming back to the Airmaks Katran CB. So...

Brocock Sniper XR Sahara .22 $1195
Airmaks Katran CB .22 $1269

Scope(s)
Thinking one of these four for the Sniper XR
Katran scope - I'd like to find something more budget friendly maybe $100(ish)?

Moderator(s)
Probably a DonnyFL...I'm a sucker for their marketing, what can I say?

Anyway - would love to hear other thoughts/advice if you have any before I pull the trigger on this load of PCP goodness to get started on my journey! I realize that's $3500+ it adds up quick, but I'm hoping it would be something fun to do as a family getting the kids away from devices...and hoping to get some good stuff to make it a good experience for everyone. And maybe, just maybe, I'll be able to convince my brother-in-laws that they should get some fun gear, too

Got another opportunity to chase the big buck today and decided to take my bulldog and my .30 Maverick for squirrel. Still learning the notos I bought a couple weeks back but usually sit in one place while deer hunting so shots on squirrels well past 50 yards aren’t uncommon and I think the Maverick is much better suited for that task. It’s the sniper version so it gets a ton of shots while putting out well over 100 fpe so the occasional coyote or groundhog are up the creek if noticed. I started the day strong smacking 3 in the first hour. Activity slowed down and only had 4 by lunch. Knew they’d start to get back out mid afternoon so I patiently waited and got lucky with an opportunity to take the last 2 off the same tree. Shot the first one and the second one appeared almost instantly to see why its buddy was flopping around on the ground. He found out why. Would be the perfect day if the 12 point buck would step out about 50 yards in front of me so it’s a no thinking just hold and squeeze type shot with my bulldog. Fingers crossed

I have the GK1 on my short list but waiting to hear how it performs in the long run. Who has the maximum quantity of rounds shot now? Any issues?

Okay I'm not sure who to go to for parts. When I got my Maverovk back , not repaired, with bottle connector threads stretched. Parts #16 in the schematic. Also need 2 each bottle valves.
Where do I go?

Ya had a air gun ya cocked it and shoot" no safety no pumping no looking to see if it fell off the reg? Hay if ya hit olive on the can twice in a roll and it went all the way through you were good to go"AND" now looked what happened "Sometimes ya need to get back to the basic's to see where ya at?

Still sub moa. Average across 6 bulls is .046” center to center. Weihrauch HW44 177cal shooting H&N Baracuda FT 9.57 grain pellets. 5 shots per bull at 7 yards. MOA at 7 yards is .07”. I also documented the total spread of each group in millimeters. My reference shot for size of hole is 3.2mm or .14”. Center to center computed by subtracting .14” from overall group size.

I have a DonnyFL Ronin .357 big bore moderator with MX18 threads - like new with protective red tube case - $150 $140 shipped

Afternoon everyone,

I can’t figure this out. I just got back from another rifle match at the CMP in Anniston AL. I practiced for this last week. At that time, shooting from a standing position, I was able to put 60 rounds into about an inch, which was good enough for me. I was shooting the same Beeman AR 2078A I’ve been using for a couple of years at 15 meters. I didn’t see any elevation drops or any other problems after 60 shots. I didn’t empty the air chamber until this morning and put two new 12mg co2 cartridges in before I left. Two hours later the match started. Using the same weight Gamo red tip pellets it was shooting horribly. Group size about four inches. After 50 shots I was getting a 3-4 inch drop so I just quit shooting. Last week I was shooting outdoors in 70 degree weather with no wind. Today I was shooting indoors at about 72 but no wind. The rifle never got cooler than 68 degrees at all. I don’t suspect a leak because after 10 days there was still gas in the chamber and now, an hour after returning home, there is still pressure in the chamber. I don’t get it. Could the pressure vary that much in the 12mg cartridges? Going from 60 rounds and no drop to 50 rounds and a 3-4 inch or more drop seems extreme. What am I missing?

Greetings fellow Airgunners,

I grew up on the high plains of Eastern Colorado and have lived in many places since. Shot my first rabbit from my dad's lap with a Marlin .22 lever. Put away many, many prairie dogs with that rifle growing up. Retired from the Army in 2015 after 22 yrs. I've had a cheap Hatsan .25 springer since 2017 to thin out the squirrel population around the yard. It is on the heavy side and I've struggled to keep it sighted in. Started looking at PCP's in 2023 and it has been quite a slippery slope since!

-Aircuda Max .25
-Uragan 2 .25
-AF Talon SS .177
-Taipan Vet 2 Tac .25
-Taipan Vet Standard .25
-Vulcan 3 .30
-AirMaks Caiman X .22 inbound

I've taken lots more tree rats with the Vets and the Aircuda in the back yard. Also learning to play with slugs and pellets on paper. I'm limited to about 37yds in the yard and have to be cognizant of neighbors soooo......the Vulcan needs more space to wring out. I hope to get it to a proper range soon for that.

I've been directed to AGN a LOT by Google while researching this hobby and have found the amount of useful info and experience here staggering! Thank you!

For sale is an Edgun Leshiy in .22. I purchased this a few years ago from a forum member. I used it primarily for pesting and it has served me very well. It’s simple, compact and holds air forever. I initially got it because I did not want to invest in a compressor and could pump it up by hand, which was not that difficult. I now have a compressor and want to try other PCP’s with larger air volume. This airgun is very accurate, and has been trouble free. Nothing is wrong with it and it works great. Along with the gun comes the original case that came with it along with spare seals. $800 shipped, USA only. Paypal F&F, Venmo.

Ok, so I now have the replacement spring and am ready to put it all back together and I can not compress the new spring enough to get the back cap screwed in place. I have put the barrel back on and have the gun standing upright with the muzzle on the floor and I am trying to push the spring in with the back cap and I can not get the spring all the way in to start screwing the back cap in place. I emailed Airguns of Arizona and have confirmed that I have the correct replacement spring from them. I have not seen a good video on YouTube showing that final part.

HELP! What am I missing? Is there some kind of jig I need to make. I am open to all safe suggestions. I am pretty good mechanically.

Each of these #'d topics will be getting their own thread and pics so this is a tease of sorts:

Glorious Weather this weekend in Mobile, Al. low of 46 F, high of 68 F - light winds but if i start early enough - no winds.

#1) I am now in possession of a "one off" true single shot loader for a .177 SKOUT EPOCH - testing will begin 11/19/23 to see if the single shot loader built by Skout, resolves the skirt damage the rotary magazines were causing in the tiny fragile .177 pellet skirts = research and development - will i stop chasing my zero and have my POI finally corrected? Stay tuned.

#2) My Daystate .25 Wolverine (EFT specific tuned rig). Although not appropriate for my 105 yard suburban backyard range, it will be getting ZERO'd and Dope prepped. This is in anticipation of the EFT event in Leesburg, FL end of this month, Nov 23. Numerous Hay bails with additional backstops stand ready to receive some lead.

#3) I will be setting up a special order, custom built, Crossman Challenger HFT that came from Airgun Revisions = Rich Dudek. I'm hoping to sponsor a young eager shooter. How will this amazing airgun, compare when thrown into my mix of numerous high end FT platforms?
Theory - you don't have to spend a lot of money to havve a very accurate FT or HFT rifle. This gun weighs in at 8.5 lbs when scoped. Research and Development = scope and dope and shoots groups out to 55 yards.

Shrinking the collection for personal reasons.

Selling my Brocock ranger xr in 22 cal.

This was purchased directly from Derrick Wall who tuned it to 15fpe with cphp stupid accurate at 50yds, and he did his trigger work to make it a very crisp and light pull. It does not have all the pic rails that usually come with the ranger (reflected in price), but mounts a scope just fine. Comes with one mag, and fill probe.

Asking $1150 shipped conus. Will need to add extra shipping outside of that.

Thanks for looking.

Scope not included, but could include mod if you want it. (3D printed).

I came across this video posted by the WOLFIEK Group titled “Unlock the Huben GK1! V1-V3”. I was just curious to know if anyone knows exactly what is being done in the video, and if so, may you please explain it in detail. From the title, I’m assuming that whatever is being done in the video is meant to give the gun more power. I know that there is a power adjustment screw on the pistol but what’s being done here is not that. Please post any information that can shed some light on this video for me. Thanks.

Unlock the Huben GK1! V1-V3:

Additionally, I am expecting a GK1 to arrive very soon. This will be the first PCP airgun that I’ve owned. Are there any necessary or highly suggested things I should do with the gun straight out of the box? One person on YouTube stated that he always cleans the barrels of his brand new guns before shooting anything through them. Is that a common practice? Are there any tools or maintenance items that are must-haves for all airgun owners? Any information or comments would be greatly appreciated, thanks .

Should the shroud be sealed/air tight or vents or holes in it ?
