EXACTLY!! It’s against the rules and 90% still feel they are Entitled to do it anyway they feel like.
Any seller that insists on Friends and Family for a Business transaction is not to be trusted buy potential buyers.
Thats my opinion. Dont care how they TRY to justify it.

That’s a no go for me.

You can’t tell another grown man what to do when selling something. That’s the thing we all have to understand. If you want to follow PayPal’s agreement,or how you comprehend the terms. That’s on you. This is a very grey area. I’m willing to bet atleast 95 percent of us broke TOS on PayPal.


Someone wants what they want for the item. Asking guys to cover the 3 percent gets them no more money but less if they don’t ask. It’s actually making stuff cheaper for buyers. When I sell an item on eBay I tack on 15+ percent(to asking price)to cover fees so get what I want. Be no different than adding 3 percent to asking prices and saying you get a friends discount (for f&f payment). We start trying to control sellers. We lose them and that means less airguns for sale.

We make the Ataman AP-16 fill probes in threaded and foster connection. They are in stock and come with seals.

.232 "dia. x .525" lg.
Then steps up to .270" dia., that acts as a stop, so the probe doesn't go in too deep.

The center of the first o-ring is about .110" from the end of the probe, the second o-ring is about .390" from the end of the probe.

Good luck

Help! Misplaced both fill probes for ataman ap16 and can’t find them online anywhere. Is there anybody who knows the size of it so I can hopefully replace. Thanks

Robrobierob3 said:

Thanks so much for responding i really appreciate it. I’m so irritated with the fact i misplaced the originals. I’m probably gonna need way more than luck to find that thing online anywhere with those same specs there’s almost no doubt in my mind that I’ll never shoot my ap16 again. Poor gun has less than 50 shots on it

We make the probes for the AP-16 and they come with seals. Both threaded and foster are in stock at this moment.

I think they all are ambi, at least the 6 I own are. I'm a lefty and every one I've tried fits me very well. I highly recommend them for leftys.

The Ghost is truly ambidextrous in that you can swap the lever to either side of the gun. The rest of BRK lineup do not offer this feature. But as you describe they fit and function nicely for lefties…

I added 2 shims between the spacer and the rear air tube plug. WOW! 980fps with a 26.54 grain JSB Hades! It is definitely louder. If I keep it this powerful I might need a moderator to keep this thing back yard friendly.

I did try both regulators, and got a 45fps increase with the 1900psi reg. compared to 80fps with the 2200psi reg.

Can’t wait to do some more tweaking and accuracy testing this weekend!

What do you mean. Did you add the shims to the hammer spring

Can't go wrong with your choice , HW30 / R7

Do you mean the HW30S or the HW30? I have been trying to figure out the difference and if it really matters.

Bedrock Bob said:

So what exactly does the patent cover?

Click to expand...

I read through the FX patents. They seem to want to cover anything and everything. At this point they may be able to go after Lewis and Clark for the rifle they took on the expedition.

Mine was ony $35 new and it works.

Serious question though, Have any of them simply been overpumped into valve lock? I did that to my 362 when I had it out ready for a pest. Pulled it apart and used a press to squeeze the valve a vent the pressure.

If she can then I would suggest the Diana Chaser. It is a CO2 rifle/pistol. She could easily handle it and develop good shooting technique.View attachment 504559

I really didn't want to get into buy CO2 cartridges, but this rifle looks amazing

Thank you for the suggestion. Doesn't this require something to pressurize the on board tank?

MikeVV said:

Lee -

WHY...WHY...?

Replace the threaded end and machine the "Foster" fitting shape on the end of your probe !!!!!!!!
That way, folks don't need to spend, MORE...money on crappy adapters (and seals) that have...a Foster...fitting shape machined onto...it..

Also, a smaller feed hole to help slow the air entry into the cylinder. This helps from blasting a full load of high pressure air into the gun, all at once.
The Edguns have a (as I recall) about a .03" dia hole in their fill probes. That's all that's required.

In any case, great you are doing this work.

Mike, we made both. Older style compressors didn't come with foster end.. we made both types. They are available at this time..

If you want to stay in the springer family, then the Stoeger S3000 is what my grandson’s (X3’s) got from me. View attachment 504560

Do you know what the cocking effort required is for this rifle?

Update: So I finally got around to calling Crosman’s Customer Service department and was put in touch with a guy named Randy. He said he reviewed the info and the photos and agreed it was quite clear it was an issue with the rail being cut incorrectly. They’re sending me an RMA and a shipping label in about half an hour (I literally just got off the phone with him), and they’ll likely just ship a replacement gun out to me. I’ll update again once I have the replacement in hand!

Hateful McNasty said:

Looking at specs of your looking to do a larger bottle or tanks the 4 is the one . If that extra money / price difference can be swung I'd like think your more future proof with the 4 .

I do read that guys usually end up going to a tank and kinda wish there 3 or l sate compressor ain't cutting it .. imho

My brother was looking at a cs3. He shoots a Blitz, a lot too because of the full auto.

I told him to get the cs4, he's happy he did. It fills his gun quick, lower noise and doesn't even get a workout. If you can swing the extra, I agree... get the 4

If she might be a good shooter skip the junk. A Crosman Challenger would be excellent and I believe can be used in a sanctioned match. An CZ/AA200 would be great -might have to purchase used? Club rules? NRA shoots?

I get where you are coming from, but she is just starting out and I don't know if she will want to do this long term. The club actually provides match grade rifles for club practice times and competitions. She just asked to be able to go shoot with me for fun outside of that.

Just got back from a week hunting grouse and deer. Today I changed my Reximex RP pre-order to 0.177 (4.5) as I have too many .22 cal pistols. Expected in stock date 10-29, so well be hard 2 wks. wait, lol.

Nice... I've been looking longingly at the awesome tripod I have under my spotter as a gun tripod, it's a high end pro video fluid head..but it is so awesome for my spotter..Hmmm. Might have to look further at that. I do need a good rest for my home range and my toy fund is darn near negative lately.
I'm going to get some rubber mulch myself it's cheap and I have a storage box to sacrifice. Rather than cardboard I'll use a layer of the scrap survival suit in the cutout target window. That should last longer and reduce impact noise. I like the design a lot, cheap and effective. Also corrals all the lead, when it weighs 100 Lbs. time for a new one.

I have a camera tripod with gun attachment on it. I love it to shoot from

Bear-of-Grayling said:

She can or can’t shoot air rifles there?

She CAN shoot air files. That was a stray '...sorry. She can also shoot a .22 rim fire rifle there.

You're welcome!

Today I received an AliExpress stock foldable adapter thingy. Its easier to understand on the pics. Its for my dreamline tactical. It was 17€, the original from FX is 75€ plus shipping.
Makes it easier to carry on a small gun bag that I have.
Also a pic of the dreamline Next to its siblings.

I think they all are ambi, at least the 6 I own are. I'm a lefty and every one I've tried fits me very well. I highly recommend them for leftys.
