I upgraded to a black Rowan set back trigger blade. The gold factory trigger works great, I just like black better.
Before......

After.....

Distance from the back of the trigger to the trigger guard is roughly .126" closer with the Rowan.
Here's some comparisons between the two.

The Rowan is about .010" thicker than the factory trigger, so I had to adjust my washer thickness that I had added previously, for side to side play.


Here's a look at the spherical polished heads on the adjustment screws. The factory Prosport screws looked better, so I swapped them out to the Rowan trigger blade.

And here's the ones that came in the Rowan trigger blade..

And they would probably work just fine, I just liked the looks of the factory Prosport screws better.

Now to shoot it and get it adjusted, and see how I like it.

wouldn't opening the transfer port cause piston slam , as in no back pressure ? possibly ruining the seal ?

Yes
If you go too large, then that would be a very real possibility. It involves more math than I care to figure out.........

I shoot my SAM from 3000 psi down to 2000 psi & i get 55 regulated shots. You stated you shot 10 mags-(80) shots? I'm not sure what the SAM reg is set at but i would bet you were off the reg at 1200 psi. This will affect the cycling of the action. 50 shots are what they advertise, so i wouldn't go below 2000 psi. I sent mine back under warranty last year for mag jams & got it back in 2 weeks with a new magazine & a test target. They said they replaced the hammer pin & the. cocking handle. So far so good. It's just not as accurate as i expected!!

I gave up on removing it as is and took the gun apart and got it out. The firing pin was jammed into the cartridge and even with them both out of the gun it was very hard to separate them. Got it working now. I guess I must have screwed the tube cap on too tight, though I thought it had not been excessive. At least now I know how to take it apart and put it back together again. Thank goodness for YouTube "How
To" videos.

I have an fx wildcat mk3.25 cal
Power plenum
Huma transfer port and probe
I have tuned it for higher power settings With the regulator set at around 150 bar shooting 36g slugs between 920-950 fps .where I am confused I for the first time today was plinking targets and checking speeds on my chrono since the temperature drop we have had the past few days and realized my main air gauge was all the way down to 98-100 bar but my velocity wasn't suffering.i usually top the gun off when it gets to 150 bar .I'm lost ,can anyone give me some insight?

Trump or treat. No? Then, Bye-den...

nice wind shots ! i want to try a .25 springer next .

Click to expand...

I don't have any springers, but wouldn't mind one like a bsa lightning. Smaller gun and didn't come in 25, but that's the appeal for me. I don't like how big most springers or pcp rifles are. Over 40" is getting into musket/duck hunting shotgun length lol.

I bought this new and installed it on a rifle that I never shot. The side wheel was installed but removed nothing else was used and still in the wrapper
Has two VERY VERY faint marks on the bottom.
Asking $400 shipped.

SOLD.......

I bought the GK1 22 from Kelly at Kraz Cool last month and have shot less than a 100 pellets through it. Just don't have time for it so it needs a new home. I had Kelly put the new style loading gate on it, I will ship the factory moderator adapter as soon as it comes in. This thing shoots great fantastic trigger and lite weight, I shot a few sparrows with it quite accurate and have the fps turned down to 450fps with JSB 15.89. ASking $1295 shipped and insured...Thanks Terry

never good to dry fire

Call airguns of Arizona and they will put you in touch with Todd. He can help you with the size. I seem to recall he told me some of those hoses are metric and only available from overseas but he should be able to help you with what size so you can do your search.
Thx
Dan

Simple way to protect your barrel (shroud) from the clamp of the clamp on is to wrap it with a layer or two of painters tape.

Sometimes mine continue to wear the blue tape haha

the FX Bobcat is the better gun, YES I would buy the FX over the others, has a better resale value too.
and I'm not an FX fan....

I know this is an old post but I figured since I own all three guns, I would pipe in. My FX Bobcat is by far the most accurate of the 3. JTS 2nd and Avenger 3rd. That being said, all 3 are very accurate guns. I can group the Avenger and JTS in 1/2 inch groups at 50 yards. The FX will stack pellets all day long.

This listing has been renewed

15 years(?) in the hobby. Something along those lines. Nearly 40 years of doing my own PB gunsmithing.

The biggest factor (for me at least, but I suspect for most) is documentation. The more and better the information you have going in, the better you can plan and be prepared and the more likely you are to get it right. Particularly details like o-ring specs.

After that, it's nice if the fasteners are standard and a single standard is used throughout as much as possible.

No 'booby traps' in disassembly - where multiple parts will spontaneously come out (often avoidable if you have good documentation).

I have a huge number of tools, and the tools to make tools, so that's not an issue for me - I don't mind if something takes a special tool, particularly if that tool is documented as well.

I am sniping them in my yard so I take them when either I or my dog see them. The weather is certainly a factor. They don't move as much when it is windy or raining. Cold weather seems to make them hungrier so they eat more. Time of day seems to depend some on the squirrel. With leaves on the trees it is not unusual for us to see them and not get a shot for several days. Some squirrels seem to have my 7 oaks in their am schedule and some visit more in the pm. Some come both times. Difficult to say for sure that exactly how often they visit because I am sure we miss seeing them sometimes. But late in the afternoon right before it gets dark does seem to be more frequent time for visits than any other part of the day except the first couple hours of sunlight.

Often I can only see part of a squirrel if I can find them at all. But I had one sit there fully visible on a branch eating an acorn last week. He got a pellet and was DRT. Before the last couple I missed several shots. My impression is that being missed makes them extra prone to hide and run. I think I got that one when it was vertical mainly on the back side of the tree, vertical with it's head down and peeking at me in the crotch of a tree. I saw it's eye and shot it under the ear with the pellet going down the neck and coming out under the off side front leg. I suspect they often get into positions where most of them is not visible but they can still see me. But I also frequently take them facing away from me. They seem to think if they cannot see me I cannot see them.

FYI Junk posts like yours do not count toward your 10 meaningful posts.

It really is extremely difficult to post ten times. You might as well require people to master quantum mechanics. Ten meaningful posts? That would probably take more than 100 words! I just want to sell this Gameboy whisper I found behind the seat of my uncles truck.

For sale, FX Impact Compact Arca Rail ST0023. As shown in pics, nothing else.
