I recently bought a used WC mk3 22 cal. Trying to shoot fx atomic 15.9grn. I can’t get the WC to shoot past 800fps. I’ve increased the reg from 80 to 150 and adj hammer accordingly. Also swapped from 500 to 600mm…no change. Also put a power plenum on and still no change. I switch the 600mm from pellet to slug and still no change. Any suggestions what it could be? Thanks

I wonder...
If I'd drill a set of sling studs into my brand new Gamo Replay Magnum stock void the warranty? Or only if I interfere with the mechanics?
Anybody has any experience with this?

So I ordered a few boxes of NSA .22 20 grain .216 through .218. I’ve found my m3 compact likes the .218 in the heavy and pellet barrels most. Or at least I had the best accuracy in .218. Anyway when I increase the weight of the slug the length will increase also. So should I lock in on the .218 for all weights or try other diameters in different weights too? Not sure if the length of the projectile may affect how much the barrel will like to “hug the slug” if you will.

I have come into possession of what looks to be a carbiine style air rifle. There are no markings any where, other than near the muzzle end of the stock I see "Normal - HOP". Normal as an arrow above it pointing towards the muzzle and HOP has an arrow pointing back towards the action.

Thank you for any/all help

I have some photos -

I have an AEA HP SS .30 with the 165cc air tube. I was thinking about adding a Huma internal regulator. I'm thinking that if I do this, I can fill the air tube to 3600 psi but have the regulator set for about 2800 psi for proper semi-auto cycling. That should give me a good shot count and better reliability. The main thing I am hoping for in this is to get 2 magazines (18 shots) at 2800 psi. Is that possible?

Also, I love the look of my AEA just the way it is. I don't want a larger air tube or bottle. I got this because of how compact it is.

I can't find any information on this idea. I have not found any posts or videos of anyone regulating a 165cc air tube. Is what I am thinking feasible? Has anyone out there tried this?

What's the best springer for pests at 50yards? Probably spent 12hrs over the past couple days researching PCP's and just seems like I'm gonna dump 1k before I even get going. Probably spent 4 hrs researching springers today and I'm so lost in the sauce. One minute I was looking at Hatsan 135 QE Vortex in .25/.30, Then various Gamo's in .22, and almost pulled the trigger on a Beeman R9 but then starting reconsidering cause we do have some racoons and plenty of armadillos that destroy my 2 arces.

I would like to buy a filling station for SCBA tanks with a quick bleed valve –– or a bleed screw that goes EASY IN and OUT.


I have one filling station that has a "button" on it, the quick blead valve. I give it a push with my thumb, and in one violent Pfffft all the air in the line is gone. EASY!

The other filling station I have is a (China-)pain: It has a bleed screw. I need to unscrew it hard, it hurts, I don't like it at all. And that despite the fact that the screw is large-ish and has 3 blades to apply the force of my fingers better. And as people with whom I shake hands at times confirm: My fingers aren't weak.
That filling station model is pictured below.


QUESTION:
What filling station can you recommend me, where bleeding the hose isn't a chore?



Another QUESTION:
Excuse my ignorance:
I use a 500cc alu bottle taken from an FX Royale,
and
I use a standard SCBA 9L tank.
The filling station that I would like to buy: Will it fit into either of these tanks? Or do they have different threads?



Thanks.
Matthias

Hellow everyone! Need some help with fx panthera and how to degas the riffle after I've shot it around 6 times and the air still doesn't want to flow out of the plenum? Don't want to keep shooting it it's under 90. Don't want to damege valve pin again.

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 ?
