Shout out to all agn members for helping to making this happen. If you can attend please do so. If this is a success then it will continue to grow. I have no affiliation with this but hopefully any airgun enthusiasts will attend.

Thanks for the “shout out”!

The show is progressing nicely. I’ve got a maximum of 98 tables available for vendors with only 11 left available.

Pyramyd Air, Shooting 7 Targets and Rhino Filed Targets have sponsored some choice raffle items.

Along with all the collectors and hobbyists who have tables we have industry members too. High Pressure Pnuematics, Skout, Serpent Air, Airgunwerks, JG Airguns, and Baker Airguns will be in attendance.

I would just inspect the inside integrity. Could always find a bore scope to use for extra piece of mind. These type bottles really would never be worth doing any type of test on. A brand new one can be had on Amazon for just over 100 dollars.

That laminate royale is calling your name !!

I saw it, but I like the walnut stock on an airgun.

Its very easy on a Leshiy! I have 250mm , 450mm , and 600mm barrels for mine all in 30 caliber. barrels are easy to change. then just appropriate handguard. For the short 250mm I have a short handguard I put an AR style hand stop on it to make sure I don't get any fingers or anything in front of the muzzle! This makes a very handy truck gun. FX 50.2 grain pellets are doing 705 fps , 450mm are doing 835fps and 600mm are doing 900fps. So they are a very versatile gun and easy to work on.

I didn't know it had come out yet, and yeah why is the world so quiet about it??

@steve123 It seems that AGT screwed the pooch and sent guns out to reviewers, bench rest styled long-range shooters, and paper punchers Instead of hunters. Once the videos are made and uploaded, then what? How many people are really gonna continue to shoot .45 caliber airguns for recreation?

i have plenty of Orings
i had to look hard for this answer and i assume it is correct
everything i read was measure the damn thing and figure it out yourself and in this case that is what happened
but i will be the first to tell you after chasing Oring ring sizes for 15+ years they can be tricky to find and to measure
oh i know all the places to find them but still
sometimes you take a flyer and buy several sizes and hope for the best

Are you going to be dialing corrections, or are you a classic point and shoot kinda guy?

For the money I'm a big fan of Primary Arms, and Arken Optics.

The real rookie mistakes is entering them in the classifieds and expecting to recoup all invested.

The truth hurts.

Airguns are not investments.

It's a hobby that leaks smiles followed by tears.

Yes. I'd suggest an airgun.

My point was that no database of non-restricted firearm serial numbers with owners is maintained either by the RCMP or local police!

In the settings options, you'll see a menu selection CALIBRATE - ADVANCED. This is where you set the sensitivity. For the one I was using, -1.0 did the trick. Mind you, I test down a narrow hall, so turning down the sensitivity worked for me. Otherwise, and movement would be picked up and recorded, including flies passing through the radar cone.

Gotcha thanks!! Are you sure that’s increasing sensitivity though?! I tried it with .22 and it seems it just knocks of 1 or 2% from the speed it read?!

With the .177 no change (meaning to issue with certain ammo still there no matter the setting).

Hmmmm...

Extrapolating from that information I'd guess they could pump my 14.5" barreled .22 Sniper XR pistol/carbine convertible up near 35 foot pounds.

On second thought, since I use her mostly for Extreme Pistol Field Target competition on power-level 2 due to the 20 FP power limit, Black Betty is perfect as-is. Matter of fact after doing the convertible work I had to reduce reg pressure to find 19.99901 foot pounds on PL2; that dropped PL4 from 30 to 28 FP.

I really, REALLY love my .22 Sniper XR; however she required a (warranty) barrel replacement by AoA. I then did a LOT of tuning and tweaking, both before and after the pistol/carnbine conversion. All the details are in the attachment.

Nice looking conversion!! I really like the .25 cal. as well

We were the Tuxing reps for 3 years and provided test engineering for them. After years of suggesting they update there manuals they just ignored. And yes oldvet have had many compresoors in shop repair due to incorrect oil. Royal Purple being the top one. As stated I have over 300 hrs on Tuxing 032 temp never runs above 130 on really humid days here in Texas. I would not allow a AI bot to decide on which oil to use that comes from years of experiance.

Maybe I should switch to Seco 500.
The Ice product seems to be working well though. Did you see the Ice vs. Wetter video.

In your rifle's case, it's actually going to use more air at the lower reg pressure as the dwell time has increased. The upside though is I think the consistency should improve a little. In any case though, you should really be setting the regulator pressure for a projectile you want to shoot and at the power you want to shoot it at, and THEN, set the hammer spring tension to achieve consistency and efficiency. It about the balance between reg pressure and hammer spring tension.

Thanks sir for the input.

how do you like the M4? is it worth the upgrade?

It has some minor flaws that some folks think IT should not have for a 2000+ $ PCP . I love it but then I like to fiddle and the M4 is a fiddlers gun . So much power and long range accuracy . Mine is in 22 and I am shooting 25 gr pellets and 30 gr slugs !

I don't know your age, but if you amortize the cost of that Boss over your remaining shooting years, you might decide that it's a bargain. Yeah, we all pay too much for our hobbies. But, you could be spending as much on golf and have nothing to show for it except a bad back! (my situation with tennis and shoulder)

A shattered wrist 47 or so years ago ended any golfing future. Wrists dont appreciate dropping 220lbs on them. Was free on a fast break, got up in the air for the dunk, guy cut my legs out from under me, arm hit the backboard, rotated head down, everything dropped on my left wrist. Took 3 other players to stop me from killing that little bastige...

I'm 69 but I can afford it, I just have an aversion to paying that much or more for a pellet gun I'll shoot at paper, mostly, in my backyard. For the .30 the occasional raccoon.

Mike,

You're a prophet — trying to convert people to airgunning.

Yes, DO try to expand your loaner program.
You know you're doing the right thing! (Ask me how I know....)

Funny, I saw this just before I was going to post how incredible the Ghost HP has been. I have zero affiliations and am just a plinker with a love for precision Airguns. BRK, the Ghost, XR Sniper, Commander have just been outstanding. That Ghost HP is so damn quiet and accurate, I am just so impressed. (HP .22, light spring) I can be critical to a fault sometimes and maybe I’d make the safety a little cooler than it is but the functionality is what counts. It could be lighter for freehand but it’s solid enough for bench. Man, it’s incredible how consistent it is. Great trigger on it as well. Truly my best PCP ever.

Also in this thread be mindful that a pig and a hog are different. It is very unrealistic to think you can shoot a boar hog in the body and expect the same results you got shooting a pig in the body with an air rifle. My experience is limited here, but I’ve learned that much.

If this is confusing to you, look up “pig” and look up “hog.” I felt dumb and embarresed when my dad corrected me on this after I thought I knew the difference. I went after a pig once with a .25 air rifle and ran into more than I’d bargained for when a decent sized hog emerged in front of me while I was crawling though briars. That was an intense experience.

If you confirm there is nothing in the inside of the piston like a stuck washer and tophat, Just measure the original spring top hat etc and then compare to the stack height of what you put in, if the new stuff is more reduce the stack height by taking out a washer etc as others have said. I have purchased kits (not tinbum) that bound if I used all the washers, I usually start with none of them and work up.
