    FX FX DRS filling issue

    Apologies for the late reply but yes, I took the valve to bits and sprayed it with brake cleaner. It must have had some dust or something in there, possibly bits of o-ring as the rifle had a burr on the filler hole which was eating o-rings.

    FX FX DRS filling issue

    It doesn't leak, it's just the internal valve isn't shutting as I would expect it to when I bleed my air cyclinder upon refilling.

    FX FX DRS filling issue

    Gentlemen this is democracy manifest! I have a newly purchased DRS, an FX. When I fill the gun to my desired pressure I shut the valve on the tank and bleed the air line however the bleed will not stop and the gun drops 50 bar. It's as if the valve in the guns filling port is not shutting...

    HW/Weihrauch 22mm tune on a HW97

    I opened the transferport up today, from 3.3mm to 3.8mm. The bounce situation was better, but it was still there. I tried a bit more preload, added 5mm. Things felt better again, but it's still there. I think I'll be making a new top hat in brass for a bit of added weight or swap the 5mm of...

    HW/Weihrauch 22mm tune on a HW97

    I'm on about 20mm of preload at the moment, I will be trying to add more though. I do suspect the transfer port though. I think I will come up with a way to swap out transfer ports, possibly bore out the current comp tube and thread the transferport and make some brass inserts.

    HW/Weihrauch 22mm tune on a HW97

    I'm not TL, just an idiot in a shed with a lathe. I used a teflon based lube that does not diesel. I really think it's down to piston bounce that I hope to eliminate. Standard round shore 70 o-ring. 18mm x 2mm

    HW/Weihrauch 22mm tune on a HW97

    My man, skirtless pistons are not new. Neither are 22mm pistons. The piston is kept square via the spring guide. The spring guide is reamed to 0.002" larger than the latch rod. Squareness isn't an issue. It will be kept more square than the factory piston. My comp tube seems to be a problem...

    HW/Weihrauch 22mm tune on a HW97

    Hi all, I've been developing a 22mm tune on my HW97, .177 rifle. The piston is skirtless, 130g with tophat, o-ring sealing and on a TX200 mk3 spring and latch rod. I'm quite happy with it but recently a leaky compression tube has had me questioning things and I thought it would be interesting...

    Why no Electronic regulators?

    Well then, let's just agree to leave it to the experts then.

    Why no Electronic regulators?

    I've read it. If you think you can make the perfect non-creeping regulator then go and do it. You'll be very rich.

    Why no Electronic regulators?

    A solenoid capable of shutting 200bar (or more) would be massive.

    Can tourists buy airguns in the US?

    Too much faffing around. I didn't even think of that... That could be an option!

    Can tourists buy airguns in the US?

    I think I could, I'd have to look into it. I'd need to turn it down to our power level (12ft/lbs) and if I'm buying a .30 or something then that's kind of pointless unless I also buy a .177 liner maybe?

    Can tourists buy airguns in the US?

    Hello friends, I'm a very keen airgun shooter in the UK, but after watching some of the RMAC stuff on YouTube I'd really like to tick that off the bucket list... The problem being all my guns are 12ft/lbs and not really suitable for that kind of shooting. Would I be able to, as a tourist land...

    Tuning artemis p12 100 yards at 1080 fps w slugs 1/2 inch group

    To be fair you can't accurately range like this unless you know what scope mag he's using and we don't. You could just pull the footage into an editor and get the time between the shot and the pellet landing and use this with his 1088fps chrono reading to calculate distance though. This would...

    Equally I am looking forward to seeing someone talking themselves up so much like this guy and then finishing in the bottom half or some poop. Either way it's win win for everyone.
