The Golden Age of air guns?

I'll try my best to think of it as "The Golden Age." Was it 1981 when I finally got a Beeman R-9?
I seem to think of the Golden Age as when things were simple.
It is not simple anymore because there are so many choices.
If the Golden Age = more choices, it has not come yet, there is no Golden Age then.
Choice is Golden; it is getting better all the time!

The final 3d printed Technical stock for my Altaros M24???

I can't speak directly for their CF variants, but Atomic Filament makes great stuff, here in the USA. https://atomicfilament.com/collecti...?sort_by=manual&filter.p.m.custom.color=Black

How do you insert the rods into your prints?
By design, the stock was printed in 3 parts with Fusion 360. The .250 stainless rods are inserted while the parts are being glued together. Hence locking all 3 parts together.

BTW, I'm willing to give my Fusion 360 files to any AGN member for free. However, my scattered brain and the way I design parts in Fusion may be difficult for some to read and understand. You will be on your own to figure it out.

N/A  Does the difference make much of difference?

I have a .22 caliber Wolverine R Lite (the 30 fpe version) and like it as casual PCP, ready shoot as received from the factory.

The King is a PCP with a lot of potential as far a accuracy, power and adjustability goes. I have a .22/700 mm Panthera with the same value system and it's very consistent. The DRS also uses the same valve and I've been very pleased with the performance of my .22/600 mm Classic. Both my PCPs shot very well with their factory tunes.

The Wolverine is a very nice airgun but I don't think the design has the depth of capacity for .25 caliber at those ranges. I see it more as a .177/.22 sub-60 yard type of rifle.

For longer range shooting in .25 caliber, I'd go with the King, as it gives you more options. The high-flow valve is easily capable of handling heavy .25 projectiles.

Just my 2 cents.

Cheers!
I have an Air arms s410 rated at 30fpe. It is a lazer with 16gr and 18gr JSB’s. I have found that for shots longer than about 60yds even in low winds, it’s not as accurate as I like it to be as headshots are best with these critters. I was out shooting with a couple of buddies this weekend and they were shooting the FX Impact M3 with slugs-and they were routinely hitting past 100yds, in fact they were doing everything with their pcp’s that I do with a 22lr. That convinced me to get something that can launch lead without burning powder that has greater reach than my s410. I like the looks of the Daystate with a walnut stock over the composite stock on the King. But I will take 80fpe over 60fpe if it launches slugs that can buck the wind better. These targets are from my s410.

FX  New FX Pistol!

wow never seen so much negative over innovation isn't this what progresses the air gun world?
i have roughly 10 air guns from 3 FX ,taipan vet2 Agt urgan 2, Brk sniper xr magnum etc.
my ghost hp supposed to be a very good gun according to reviews mine was unfixable after the 4th time back.
the dealer refunded me and now a new leopard 25 600mm bottle version will replace it.
my good friend with his new Agt Urgan 2 just had a catastrophic failure that split the main body when he fired it, dumped the tank in a split second
he ended up on the ground holding his head and will say i have never in my life seen this also1/2 the gun was frosted.
he is ok just rang his bell and now thinking 2wice about getting another AGT brand because of this, it's all it takes.
i told him it wouldn't hurt to try one of the new Day states he likes the black wolf hi lite he has had his eye on it for a short bit.
i really enjoy my 3 going on 4 pencil straw barrels cost me little over 100 and i can shoot slugs all day my old ghost
5-600 for a slug barrel and prey it works? fx makes their own liners or straws as some say and mine have been very accurate.
so why doesn't any other manufacturer doing it?
i like all my guns I'm not brand loyal but don't shame a company for innovation if it was not for innovation and technology from them there would be no new anything, they all have their issues don't care what brand it is
and not one gun i have purchased in any brand shot its best out of the box
if i have the funds and its reasonably priced is like to have another pistol beside my gk1
i like the fact they have barrel options along with a nice lite adaptable stock
on another Note FX needs to step up to the plate and get their version of the fix out for many m3 and m4 owners they have been promising and no results as of yet. But i don't condemn them this just more opportunity for other companies to do it and so far, i will say
that new single Oring plenum with the new Oring has been great in my m3 and m4s so i can't really complain other than it cost me some money and time
i could have spent 3500 for an air rifle that had that cold shot issue with no fix at all then what?
i don't know guys i guess i just rambled a little but what would happen if fx and day state went out of business then what?
Theres always going to be that. There's those with some genuine grievances but usually it's people who couldn't handle the mental load of an over complicated fully adjustable airgun and maintaining many orings, or those justifying their purchase (usually for financial reasons).

The machining quality and adjustability are fantastic, it's potential in a box. The marketing tactics and rolling updates to clear parts shelves are a bit shady imho.

Soda straw guy has a bone to pick with them, and then theres the folks who just want it tuned out of the box that get overwhelmed and upset at the mental load after the financial beating they just took.

I'm still a fan and have figured out workarounds or fixes for every minor issue I've experienced. I DONT recommend fx to most people, just so I don't have to see misguided whining. I do like that the complexity gatekeeps a little when the expense doesn't do it first.

FX  Airarms Hunting South Africa gives us a look at the new FX Pistol

I personally really enjoy airgun pistols and have a significant collection of vintage and current. I've owned FX's previous pistol, the Ranchero, which was an excellent pistol. I have no doubt that this will be an excellent pistol as well.

I will be curious to see power specs as I have a feeling they are going to be on the quite high-ish side. Power plenum in the grip - that's gotta have a reason for being there. One thing I don't get is the adjustable valve - seems unnecessarily overly complicated on a pistol.

Couple of other issues for me. Look at the top down view - this is a wide girl - she got some beefy hips. Other one - the cocking lever and mechanism are really big - like I get the feeling 1/3 of the width of the pistol is just cocking mech.

Either way - minor complaints. If the specs are good I might give it a try.

New member and airgun noob

I am now stocking the Throne Gen2 BUT while it has all the feature that people want, I find that it lacks adequate power. Just my opinion.
I'll figure it out, I'm sure there is a path, minus warranty, forward. Spring here, port there maybe a little weight gain in the hammer.

Not as easy as Airforce, but keep the pellet under pressure the length of the barrel.

Could be as simple as more plenum space. Playing with my AirForce rifles if figured out plenum needs to be 3x or 4x the barrel volume.

INTRODUCING THE NEW FX LEOPARD

Well it seem people still manage to hit things with this straw barrel.
I will say i do not understand why these / any FX do not come from the factory with the carbon fiber liner installed around the straw, the O-rings work but really. :cautious:
The 700 mm lower rail should be 2 MlOC holes longer and so terminate just about where it do on the 600 mm version

PS: i would trade my old Maverick in for one of these in a heartbeat, but sadly no rewards for loyal customers at FX.

PSS: I have 2 FX and have owned 2 other brand but only have 1 other brand ATM, absolutely not a fanboy, but the Maverick once sorted of its childhood problems given me much fun.

Daystate  Red wolf tuning questions


You will find EVERYTHING you need in this thread..
Bob

Daystate  How to charge Daystate Alpha Wolf ???

Is it me or it is
1- fairly difficult to connect the usb c cable to charge the battery
2- impossible to plug/unplug the dust cap
without removing the stock?

I think Daystate did not really think this through before coming up with the design. Their solution (a USB-C port deep down there under the stock) is not only very hard to get to, but it is also very exposed to environmental factors like water and dust (common now! is that dust cap really supposed to protect against water? Even if it does (and it is a big if), it must first stay in place. So far, I’ve already lost about a dozen (mostly the ones on the delta wolf). 😡

For ease of use, I’ve been using a magnetic USB-C adapter like this

Is there a better solution that would seal the port against water/dust and be easy to use at the same time?
