EDgun  Huben gk1 fill probe size/edgun peazy fill system

I am interested in getting the edgun peazy fill system and it mentions that it will fit any 8mm fill probe...but I can't find any info on what size fill probe the huben gk1 takes. I measured it with my calipers and it came in under 8mm. Are edgun leshi 2 probes and the gk1 compatible? It also said you can swap the prob out for a foster fitting...but the one I got to test doesn't fit the huben probe (luckily it was only a few dollars). Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks

Daystate  Daystate Alpha Wolf 22cal velocity issue

I own an Alpha wolf almost a year.
I have an issue with velocity.

I choose for example 22CAL 18.13grain 23"Barrel and 900 fps and the rifle shoots 800fps.
I double checked the velocity with an external Crono.

I changed both external O rings at the transfer port and the one smaller in the barrel. still same results.

Any suggestions that would be useful? I run out of ideas and daystate sents me back at the seller.

Thank you in advance

N/A  Materials Used In Valve Design?

Hello everyone!

I am new to this forum and new to creating airgun valves in general. My apologizes if this post is not in the right place.

After giving a few attempts at my own design I was hoping that someone with more experience would be able to help me out.

To give some background, I am trying to create what I believe is called a poppet valve that is used with standard 800 psi CO2 cartages. I have limited capabilities in my shop and I want the design to have some forgiveness to lose tolerances and to use as many of the shelf parts as possible. My current version of the valve (depicted below) has only lasted a few cartridges before it starts to leak. All the parts of the valve are not included, but it should get the point across. I believe that the material used for my piston seal (part 3) and/or the adhesive that I'm using to attach it to part 2 may be the problem.

I have been using 1/32" thick, shore A 60 hardness, EDPM rubber for part 3. I am adhering it to part 2 with permabond 105 which is great for "difficult" rubbers like EDPM. I originally chose EDPM because I thought was that it needed to withstand cold temps when rapid firing. But after some testing, I believe the the seal is becoming damaged after only a few uses. After some more research I have been seeing that shore A 80 polyurethane may be used here instead due to its ability to withstand many compression/decompression cycles? But this is my main question... what is typically used here? Also, is there a better design that would allow me to remove the adhesive all together? Or is using adhesive fine? I have seen designs where the piston (part 4) is made out of derlin and there is no seal or adhesive, but I am trying to use a common part there instead of something custom. It is currently is an off the shelf threaded standoff... McMaster-Carr part "91125A339".

I have used two materials for part (2). The first was steel. I later tried nylon which i found to have ample strength and better adhesion to the seal (part 3) when using the permabond 105. It is also much easier to drill.

My next material choice for part 3 would be shore A 80 polyurethane, 1/16" thick and I plan to use permabond 105 again. Any insight on these choices would be greatly appreciated. I am also open to design changes that remove the adhesive altogether, but I'd like to keep the same form factor and not make any more custom parts. Currently only parts 2 and 3 are custom and they are very easy to make.

Thanks in advance for any help!

FX  FX impact regulator in Panthera

Will the Fx impact regulator fit in the Panthera? I installed the extra high pressure Huma regulator and the recharge is very fast. The issue is the regulator drops in pressure over a period of time after shots and can’t hold the set pressure. For example I set the reg to 155bar and after a couple magazines it is at 152 bar with 170bar left on the fill. The stock regulator re charge was extremely slow but eventually got to set pressure. The stock regulator eventually creeped about eight bars higher then held that pressure. My idea was to get the impact high pressure regulator vs extra high so it had a bit softer springs to help the regulator recharge to my set pressure.

Internal water tank compressors- can i leave it filled between uses??

So I'm awaiting delivery of a fan-cooled and internal water tank-cooled air compressor and am wondering if I can leave the water tank (which I plan to fill with a 50:50 mix of distilled water & Water Wetter) filled between uses or if it is recommended to empty it. Thx!

FX  Impact M3 magnets

Hi all,

I'm new to the forum and starting off with an odd question.

Can anyone tell me if the factory Impact M3 has any magnets in its build, especially the rear butt/block section?... Or the magazine?

I need to stay clear of magnets for medical reasons, hence the weird question. :)

Considering buying an M3.

I know some aftermarket bits do, but interested in the factory build.

Thanks!

FX Impact M3 700mm .30 Heavy Liner Concerns

3 or 4 weeks ago, I bought a 700mm heavy .30 liner and have been working out various slugs (bought and cast) without much luck. I initially had decent grouping with 54gr Zan, but it faded away quickly. Since then, I have tried almost every manufactured variant I can find, ordered casting molds in different weights, tried different alloys, all sorts of tuning adjustments, and epoxied a carbon fiber sleeve on with no luck. I recall seeing some people talking about it taking a few hundred shots to smooth out the barrel and grooves, so figured i just needed to shoot it more.

Well, I've got through a ton of ammo and it seems more like the accuracy is dropping off as the shot count goes up, so I figured I would take a closer look at the liner bore to see if thats where the troubles were coming from. I'm seeing quite a few blemishes along the grooves, spots that look like little divets that go all the way around the ID of the lands, and what looks like a straight seam down the length of the ID. Ive gone through it a few times with JB paste, and even Flitz to see if i can get it to help clean it up with no real change.
Take a look (albeit the pictures I've taken aren't exactly the greatest, and definition of the spots isn't as apparent on them) and tell me what you think. I'm also pushing slugs out of the barrel at .2962-.2964", with slugs pushed halfway and backed out measuring a more standard .2989-2990". Most of the worst pitting is within the last 2" getting closer to the choke. I have been wondering how this liner gets dirty so quickly, but now it seems that these spots are scooping bits of lead from slugs and pellets. Is this just a bad barrel? It's been frustrating me since I can't use this rifle until I know I can make responsible and accurate shots. The original .30 liner that came with appears nearly perfect, so I'm guessing either the choke side of the jig or the liner blank itself had nasty bits stuck to it before it was formed.

2 or 3 liter 5500 psi tanks?

I'm looking to try to hot rod a Texan .457 because I love airguns and Quigley Down Under lol. In all seriousness, I love tinkering with things like this and I have a bit of a mad scientist idea. I emailed the guy who runs African Air Ordnance and he did confirm that his valve can handle 5500 psi. The problem is that I can't find any air tanks or bottles smaller than like four or five liters. Could anybody offer some input or maybe some leads on where I could source something like this? Thanks everyone.

Benjamin  Need help with stuck slugs in Bulldog barrel

Hey y'all. Can anyone help with removing stuck slugs in my Benjamin Bulldog .357? My friend unknowingly pushed 3 -142g slugs and I can't not remove them for anything. I tried spraying Ballistol down the barrel and soaking over night, then used a push rod to try and remove the slugs back out of the breach. They didn't budge at all. Do I need to let the air out and remove the barrel? If so, are there any good vids on how to do so? Thanks for any advice in advance. I hope the barrel in not ruined, errrrr.

Kral Arms  Any kral arm puncher shadow user?

Hello I'm looking to buy my first pcp and kral arms seems to be from the better options for its price.
I'm looking at kral puncher shadow which is regulated in either .22 or .25 still hasn't decided I'll plink up to 100 yard. Did any of you own this rifle or shot it?if yes what's your opinion on it any remarkable problems?

I might grab instead a kral arms puncher jumbo dazzle which is unregulated which from the reviews on the internet they seem satisfied with it .
should I grab this which is 100 usd cheaper or go for puncher shadow?

362 Crosman, stupid mistake

I have a 362 Crosman which I love, I stupidly put some gun chamber lube in the air tube, the gun would not build pressure, I called Crosman and they gave me a tip on what to do, it didn't fix it , tried an alcohol flush, didn't work, now I have air in the chamber that I can't get out, they told me to cock and fire without any pumping, I have done this several times, will this solve the problem? I don't really want to have to send it in. Thanks

Other  Aussie Airgun

Howdy all.

I've just bought a vertebrate pest control business, and am looking to get into shooting smaller pests such as rabbits, pigeons, rats etc.

I've got an array of firearms, but no decent air rifle. I'm looking for advice on what rifle (pcp) would best handle aussie conditions, and will be suitable to take down rats through to foxes. Been looking at the FX Impact M3 and Maverick, but mixed reviews have me cautious on dropping $3k+
I like the bullpup design for its compactness while not compromising on barrel length. Looking for probably a 600mm or 700mm barrel.

Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm in south australia, if that helps at all.
