Hi folks, I have a PCP Kong Lil Foot (version 1) on which I’d like to put an hour meter. I don’t want to go the vibration sensing route. Instead I’d like to hardwire one. My compressor is the type that has the converter inside the case. Where exactly do I connect the wires from the meter? Do...

I recently bought the same rifle, but a custom tuned version from AirGun Revisions. I've been using the 18.13 grain JSB Exact Jumbo Heavy (my go to pellet), JSB Exact Heavy 15.89 grain, and JSB Hades 15.9 grain. They're all good, but my most consistent shots are with the 18.1s and the Hades.

Thank you! Great, thank you!

I purchased a 1/2-20 DonnyFL adapter for my Benjamin Marauder rifle. The adapter does not have an o-ring on it, but the end cap of the Marauder does. Do I need to transfer that o-ring to the adapter? If I do, the adapter does not tighten flush to the barrel shroud - the o-ring doesn’t go all...

Hi all, If anyone has a Benjamin Marauder pistol degassing tool they no longer need or would be willing to part with, I’m looking for one. Thanks! Mike

I’m interested in getting one of these. How do you actually degas the rifle once this is installed? Thanks!

BTW, that first photo for the most part shows the contrast between the original stock coloring and the new finish.

Hi all, well here’s the refinished Marauder stock. It came out exactly the way I was hoping it would. It still needs a few hours to fully dry, and I won’t be able to take photos of it fully assembled for another week or so. Hopefully these pix (with the rubber shoulder pad re-installed) should...

Will do!

Thanks! I removed the factory finish today with a varnish stripper. There was no “sludge” to speak of, which confirms that the finish was primarily a stain, and a poorly applied one at that. I carefully taped off the stippling, sanded the stock down, and put a stain on it very similar to what...

That looks great! Thanks. I’ll check out your write up 👍🏻

Thanks, that looks really good! I’ll likely do a coating if stripper, then sand it, and go from there once I see what the grain/figuring looks like. a nice patina is what I’d be looking for. Can I boorr your hands? 😉

Thanks! If there’s any poly on it, you wouldn’t know it. It really just looks like stain. But, yes, I’ll probably put on a layer of stripper, then sand it down.

Hi all, I just purchased a new Benjamin Marauder standard rifle with a Turkish walnut stock. I’m not thrilled with the stock- it’s pretty bland, and it looks like there’s just a light stain on it. I’d like to refinish it. I don’t know what the factory finish is, so I don’t know what to use...

Thanks! I agree, and I actually did speak with Ted a few days ago for quite some time about the leak issue. He’s the one who told me to start with the axle o-rings. I’ll probably be calling him again soon. 😉 Very helpful, thank you!
