Gun hs run flawlessly for over a year with slight velocity variations in a 10 shot shot string right around 880 fps and extremely accurate out to 100yds now Im getting 880-884 for one or two shots then 860-865 for one or two shots continues like that no matter how many shots taken replaced breech O ring got quieter but no help on velocity now Im thinking regulator tried waiting longer between shots no help....has anyone here ever replaced or cleaned reg I feel capable but any thoughts suggestions or tricks you could share would be greatly appreciated on a side note not really showing up in accuracy but I know somethings changed cant live with that cause Ill question every flier I get here on out

Which brand and height for scope rings to be mount on Impact M3 OEM rail?

I was given an old air gun. The clamp that holds the pump handle is broken. There are no labels or markings on the gun to indicate the make/model. Can anyone help me find this part?

Can ya get 20 t0 30 hours out one of them just pump air guns?something like this?

Howdy all

I did some searching but didn't find what I was looking for. My Brand new HW97K just arrived along with a BKL High 4" long single piece mount (6 rail screws) and a Hawke scope. The HW didn't come with a scope stop pin, and neither did the BKL mount - in looking at the BKL website, the FAQ question as to whether they use scope stop pins was blank. I"m assuming with the six rail screws, the assumption is one isn't needed?

Also - wanted to verify - BKL recommend 15-17 inch/lbs for the scope rings and 35 inch/lbs for the rail. Assuming this is a good place to start after using alcohol on the rail and scope mounts?

thanks!

What adaptor if any would be needed to fill a 74cu ft tank from my local firehouse compressor? Is there a universal adaptor since all Scott tanks are used and filled at the firehouse? This would be tank and fitting I have.

Hello,

We are pleased to announce that we have launched new 45 grain in .25 Cal.

Most of the new rifles are easily capable shooting heavy slugs at high speeds, giving higher BC and bigger penteration. They are giving BC of 0.138 at 950fps.

First slugs are already available at some shops in EU and US.

Kind Regards,
Maja Brlec

Yesterday while plinking I started getting extreme variation of fps. I noticed the Guage on 1st reg would pop back to 180, settle at 170, slowly sink to 140, stay there a few seconds and then repeat the whole thing. After a few cycles it would settle on 150 and stay there until the next shot. The reg was set at 160. The 2nd reg is set at 140 and is rock solid. Any suggestions, lame or serious would be appreciated.

Thanks, Jim

hello everyone, this is my first post on here and what would be better to talk about than my first PCP airgun! I just ordered an Akela in .177 from airgun depot (220 bucks off with a free Benjamin hand pump) I have been trying to do some research online while im waiting for it to arrive but I am having some difficulty finding good information. does anyone have any chronograph numbers for the .177? I have seen some people saying they're sending 10.34s at around 1000 fps, is that the norm? also, other than shortening the hammer spring is there any mods anyone would recommend? once I get the gun in the mail and spend some time getting to know the gun I will be posting a ton of content on my YouTube channel as well to help spread any information shared here. thanks guys!

UPDATE:
FX got back to me about this issue. Their response:

"Honestly not sure why the regulators are giving you that many problems, even after rebuilding.
The 1st regulator stack should be "(( )) (( )) (( ))" with 12 washers.
19696-M (original brass piston) is not compatible with the 1st regulator, but 20858 (newest brass piston) is compatible.
Best Regards,
Kayla"

So when I ordered the brass pistons to replace the delrin ones, instead of sending me 20858 (newest brass piston), they accidentally sent me the ones that are incompatible with he 1st reg (19696-M).
As for the washer stack, (( )) (( )) (( )) is how FX is doing it now.

I'll give an update when the right brass pistons arrive and I install, test.


ORIGINAL POST:

From day one, the 1st stage reg on my Impact M3 was slow to recover and slow to respond or non-responisve to changes in pressure setting. One day it wouldn’t fill past 140 bar, even though it had been set to 190 bar. I degassed the gun turned the reg screw 1/4 turn out, refilled the gun, and it still read 140 bar. I turned it another 1/4th turn - still read 140.

The 2nd reg was set to 150 bar, so it read the same as the 1st: 140 bar. The bottle pressure read 220 bar. I tried a different 1st reg gauge to confirm that it wasn’t a problem with the gauge. Swapped out the stock wika with a Sekhmet. Still read 140 bar on both the 1st and 2nd regs.

Next I took the 1st reg apart and did these things:

• inspected all the surfaces on the delrin piston and inside the reg with magnification, looking for anything irregular. Nothing found. Everything looked good.
• replaced all o-rings
• deburred and polished the washers (used 3M Zona 80-4 micron cloths for all polishing)
• polished the piston
• wiped everything clean
• lightly lubed o-rings
• Reassembled, keeping the washer stack the same: 3 stacks of 4 (())(())(())

I backed the screw out 2.25 turns since I knew this should bring me to around 190 bar based on how the reg performed in the past.
Filled tank to 220 bar. Now the 1st reg wouldn’t fill past 110 bar. Backed the reg screw out to 2.5 turns. Still wouldn’t fill past 110 bar. So now things are worse.

I contacted Utah Air, where I purchased the gun. They said it sounded like a bad reg so they sent me a replacement.

I installed the new reg and it wouldn’t fill past 130 bar. At 2 turns out on the reg screw, 2.25, and 2.5, it still read 130 bar. 2nd reg gauge also read 130 bar. I removed the reg and repeated the above reg inspecting and polishing process. Found no visible issues, and the cleaning/rebuilding resulted in no change.

I ordered a brass piston from FX. Installed the brass piston in the original reg. The reg wouldn’t fill past 90 bar. Installed the brass piston in the replacement reg. It wouldn’t fill past 5 bar. Very confused.

Thinking maybe I received 2 defective FX regs, I ordered a Huma 1st reg. It works perfectly. When I fill the gun the 1st reg gauge goes to the set pressure 3x fasted than the FX reg did when it was sort of working. After a shot it recovers about 3x faster. The needle goes right to the set pressure and stays there. No creeping up or down in pressure like the FX reg would.

I’m glad that the Huma is working, but I’m still curious what could be going wrong with the two FX regs.

Any ideas what could be causing the specific symptoms described above?

Just recently bought a .177 panther hunter compact. My question is, does anyone know the thread size for the moderator? It it bigger than my wildcat but I can’t find it online.

What is the best scope size and scope for an EdGun Leishy classic?

I don’t want the whole discussion page just being me asking if water is wet

I’ve had it in storage for a while

Recently purchased a Air Venturi Avenger.25 Cal and have had to use adjustable scope mouts on my element helix scope as I was getting close to end of adjustment in my scope. Someone just mentioned that I should not have had to do that with that rifle. So now I'm googling and getting a bunch of different sources saying different things. Has anyone ever had this issue and is it solvable without putting so much stress on my scope with my setup now with my rear scope rings 1.5mm higher than front.

Hi, Brand new to PCP’s, I’m looking to shoot a Turkey once a year and hunt quail. Best caliber? .30 seems to big for quail.

Thanks!

i just want to know if anyone has encountered this problem i tried to install a huma regulator on the 2nd reg position of my FX Impact Mk3 and it leaked out of the trigger guard area when i connected the bottle. i did the following double checked the instructions to make sure that the bevel springs were installed correctly ,made sure that the Derlin washer was installed with the black mark against the regulator adjustment screw plug ,inspected the reinspected the regulator for damage found none and reinstalled per the instructions once the regulator was installed i screwed in the regulator adjustment until it just bottomed out.i pulled and held back the cocking lever screwed in the bottle same issue it leaked . I put back the original regulator it worked just fine am i missing something ?

Hey was looking for some opinions. Have an FX Impact M3 in the compact version. In 30/22. Wanted to get more into slugs so would you guys modify the compact for $700 ish or buy a dedicated slugger? Also own a huben in .25 and a prophet 1 in .22/.25. Plus some others in the mid range. Adding more guns seems like a waste of money ant this point. Also are the prophet RPB barrels competitive with FX barrels for slugs?

Hi, seeking help with my R3M,
My gun doesn't shoot as usual after deep cleaning, the issue is at the same hammer tension I got only 500 FPS instead of 880 FPS
I have tested everything (regulator, hummer spring, valve spring, the valve itself), and was working fine
My reg is set at 125 BARs
still can't back to 880, The max I can get is 670 FPS with a lot of hammer tension which eventually going to break the valve

any Idea

So I just took my blitz out right now an it shot a burst of 4 or so an it stopped an I though it jammed up at first but its just not firing now after I decocked the rifle last night, I cocked the bolt all the way back an let it go an press trigger just to hear a click as if I decocked the rifle again, Cant think of whats going wrong , I just pulled the bolt back 70% an hit the trigger to decock it last night now it wont fire.

Does anyone know what happened the SG? I just noticed his youtube channel was missing from my subscription and can't find any of his videos.

Hey there,

Would it be possible for a forums moderator to reach out and contact me?

Thank you much.

Rob

Hi just received my new Gamo coyote, it came charged and after about 50 shots it needed to be filled.
I connected the supplied hand pump but the gauge on the pump goes to 3000 but the gun will not fill.
I‘m I doing something stupid? I can see any reason

This is something that I hadn’t really thought about until recently. Can you shoot the tank pressure below what reg number one is set and do it without damage and maintaining consistency? I know you def couldn’t maintain it going below the operating reg pressure just not sure if number one plays it this ?

Its on ebay has 2 barrels 22 -25. thanks Willy
