    Newbie wants to skip the normal 1st airgun starter gun

    I sold my third car to justify buying the Maverick, but she gave me double what I needed to buy the TalonP because she saw how much I enjoy PCP'S!

    Well, Maverick is great, better than than I perform. Maverick is now a Slugger and I have new additions, a Airforce TalonP that I got for $300 from Utah Airguns, a steal and also got an Air Venturi Avenger Bullpup, just to see what a Chinese gun was like. I am impressed with the quality of...

    220 Volt Yong Heng?

    Also, the 110 volt cord that came on the compressor is a wierd size, 15 gauge, which is not sufficient for the compressor, let alone adding a 20 watt fan motor. I replaced my cord with a 14 gauge, high quality cord and soldered all the formally crimp on connectors. Wires to the motor appear to...

    220 Volt Yong Heng?

    I just finished installing a 150mm axial fan on my brand new Yong Heng for increased airflow and airflow with the compressor off to cool motor during break cycle. While wiring the fan and new toggle switch, I noticed a yellow wire that had deliberately cut. My compressor is 110 volt, so I...

    Newbie wants to skip the normal 1st airgun starter gun

    Yeah, I have the impression that a lot of folks that join this forum started with YouTube, then the purchase and finally here, with an inappropriate piece of equipment for their experience. I usually shop every possible source for quality and normal pricing. If I see something I'm interested in...

    Newbie wants to skip the normal 1st airgun starter gun

    Great feedback from everyone, but let me clarify my situation a little better. I do have unlimited access to my brother's compressor and scuba tank, which is at his home on ten acres where we shoot. Sound is not a problem out here in the gold country where you can fire off a powder burner...

    Hello compressed air enthusiasts, I am new to the PCP world and wanting to dive in to precision rifle for target practice and plinking. Semi auto, 30 plus caliber, that will work well with slugs and pellets. I already have a Sig Sauer MCX Gen 2 with PCP conversion and a Ruger break barrel...
