    N/A Great Pcps for under $600

    New to this

    Know you will take a hit on anything you sell. Such is life though I reckon. A Texan from the factory (blem) can be had for about $850, walnut stocked marauders were available for just over $300 a month or so ago .... . Best advice use the forum to find other local airgunners and try what...

    crosman 38T needs repair

    Not to many left anymore, baker certainly seems worth the phone call. I generally do not but am able to repair my pcp rigs but sent my 38T off for a re-seal. Some folks seen to have no problem with them but wasn't anything I wanted to mess with (and didn't know exactly how much it needed)...

    Airforce What size is the valve port on the factory Escape UL ?

    Thank you. Odd little rifle (mainly because I am more of a traditional airgun person). Took me a minute to get my head around the inline valve, pellet weight and dwell. People seem to know something is different in the valve/set up between the 2 but you are the 1st to explain, really...

    My new airgun. Can you identify it by name?

    Not the look I prefer (nice wood and metal please) BUT, I do need one of those. Love airguns that will out shoot me. because I still have the "even a blind hog finds an acorn in a acre sometimes" shooting ability given the chance. Excellent shooting & cant wait for a full report on...

    TKO makes pretty good stuff. Much tighter clearance tolerances. Amazing units for the size and price! Not sure if you still can (requiring a phone call & wait) still get cal. specific but you did notice a difference if using a .177 or a .22 when shooting the .177. John

    Benjamin New Guy Questions.

    You can have it either way, with or without gauge depending on which unit you purchase. Personally never needed to either gauge (we didn't used to have them) But have always had an accurate fill gauge and the tiny ones generally are not. Your needs may be entirely different. And agree a...
