If I were getting back into casting, I'd just buy ingots of Lyman 2 alloy. I think it's around $20 for 5 pounds. But that would be a last resort. There are risks in working with molten lead, and I'm happy to buy bullets and pellets.

I modified Bravos 3D GK1 Grip to fit my big hand. Removed the bottom little finger tab and put this piece of aluminum on the bottom, adding the perfect amount of length for me. I left the front of this addition extended some for my preference. I put a couple of screws and epoxied. I still might slip a rubber gripper over it, but It ain't too bad now. I also drilled and tapped a 10-32 hole for a sling stud. I like to have a sling stud and ring for hanging my pistols while in a hunting blind or on the wall of my shack.

Sorry no trades at this time.

dont sweat it

you dont need to "fill in all the blanks" to use the forum.....

Thank you everyone for all the help and comments and forgive me for the late response but this last month i have been very busy and only this past couple of days i managed to find time to adress all this.

I reached out to krale concerning the problem i had and they promptly sent a return label so that they could troubleshoot/fix this but it unfortunately happens that the shipping options were not to my liking so i ended up cutting the barrel myself.

Being a semi-auto there is a piston that slides around the outer part of the barrel so i could not just simply chop off the end because most of the lenght is needed to actuate the mechanism.
At the very end there is a groove to place a circlip (not needed for function but as an extra safety)


I figured i could cut a cone with a very steep angle with tangent radius to ease off turbulence so that i could clear the damaged rifling but could still leave the outer part intact


Concentricity between rifling and outer diameter was good (0.020mm) at different depths past the damaged section. This one was not deforming the pellet but was throwing it out of alignment on some lands which would impose an exaggerated pitch angle at muzzle. Value i measured was 0.04mm on the most damaged groove in relation to the rest.


I took 2 groups at 35m before rework and 1 after. Pellets were HN 14.6gr field target trophy power at 695fps 21joule /15.5ft-lbs @55bar (needs a lighter hammer and different spring to work in semi at this low energy)




The velocity loss with the 6mm shorter barrel was 5fps at this pressure.

The bad part is i may have to test all the pellets out again.
The good part is i actually enjoy the run as much as the finish.

I feel tempted to inspect my other barrels after seeing these results just out of curiosity and learning purposes.

But before i do i may end up either polishing or reworking the other end.

Once again thank you guys for all the guides, knowledge and opinions. helped out a bunch to make me climb another step!

Sure do love a chance to eat some beaver!

^^ This link will take you to the first shots with my Beeman R9. I literally mounted the scope, pulled a dry bore snake through the barrel, and documented about the first 50 shots or so with the gun. The first 5 shots were about half the diameter of a dime. 3 of which were probably under a 1/16” CTC cluster. No break-in whatsoever. Other than that, I have only shot the heavies in it, so I got some pellet testing yet to do. But it likes them cheap Crosman hollow points so much, why bother?

500 pellets- $6-$7 on the shelf. 50 CCI standard velocity- $4-$6. 6 tins of pellets down the road you made up for the price difference of the R9 to the Ruger 10/22. My R9 paid for itself in less than a year.

If you are mechanically inclined, I think it would be worth it to take the housing cover off and see if anything is unplugged loose or warn out.

I'm trying to come up with some fun little reactive targets for this 5 meter bb basement tack driver.
Your ideas are welcomed!

And about the performance of the barrels? Are they any good?

wonderful to hear about other countries FT .

Doh! I was just asking about this. Any news on this project?

Unfortunately, no time to enjoy. The rifle as shown was purchased new from Airguns of Arizona, quality controlled/assured, Athlon Cronus scope sighted and indoor range tested 9/30/2023. All items shown in the pictures are included. 3 extra mags (total of 4 shown), 5 tins of pellets, suppressor adapter. It has been laying dormant since taking delivery of the unit and only taken out for pictures to create this listing.

I listed this on eBay yesterday when I didn’t have access yet to post here. Definitely would like to see this go to a fellow enthusiast! That said, here’s the airgun nation deal:

$2300 shipped USPS Priority Insured lower 48. PayPal F&F or add fees G&S. Zelle is good too, local pickup in Los Angeles or Orange County.

Thanks guys!

Cs4 I is proven. Between friends we have 3 now for gk1 and k1. The aea looks like umarex ready air upsized. We have 2 ready air compressors that we are tired of rebuilding.

This stuff works well. Used it all last year. Sprayed my boots and legs each time I walked out to do target maintenance. Did not encounter a single tick. Doesn't smell like DEET. I have already ordered another bottle.

Recent LG110 with MZ10 mag, no leakage from transfer port to barrel, pallet probe interchangeable with FX maverick probe, use it own original Steyr barrel without barrel reprofiling, can mount via two short rail mount if boring screw holes is not desired, and fit scope on top of that extra rail mount. No permanent changes done to the gun

This Element Theos was originally backordered and finally arrived but only after the intended build was completed with the same scope found at another authorized dealer. This scope has never been mounted or removed from its retail packaging. The box was opened to take pictures only.

Thanks for posting the reply you received, although short, I guess it does answer That question..

My follow up question is/would be, what is the max pressure the Regulator can handle?

It does no good to have a 300bar bottle if the reg can not handle that much pressure...

I never leave a full charge on a gun when storing anyway simply for the fact it can not be good for the reg to constantly have full pressure on it....just my own opinion....

Click to expand...

I had a few more questions because you know (HP air can be scary) And they were very courteous in dealing with me but assured me the entire rifle can handle 300 bar (And they are going to print 300 bar moving forward on all rifles) plus they test all air vessels to 450 bar. I don't leave a full charge either unless heading out in the morning.
