    Crosman Vantage NP .177

    Once the bearing mod was done it was no longer an issue. Once I replace the piston seal the recoil became much tamer, and accuracy issues were resolved. So far the Centerpoint scope is still going strong

    Tuning Titan spring/Diana 460 experiment - predictions wanted

    If the arh spring is similar in length but with 2 less coils than the original spring, you also have more air space between the coils. The same amount of movement from the cocking arm will not fully compress the spring with less coils, likely resulting in a less forceful rebound when fired.

    Eat what you kill?

    Rats are in that group of some stuff just needs killing. Not in a place in life they look appetizing atm. Other cultures eat a lot of stuff we don't. I've watched a lot of those world food shows....Vietnam has some kind of pig brain gravy and dipping bread usually prepared as street food. If...

    Tuning Titan spring/Diana 460 experiment - predictions wanted

    I will be interested in your results. Would also be interested in test results from the other spring at 34 coils if it would fit in there.

    Daisy, Gamo, or IZH-Baikal

    I had a v10 for a while, same as the gamo you mentioned i believe. Decent gun, good for 10m practice/shooting. I had to do some work to get the trigger to match the specs provided by the manufacturer. After was a very good trigger, and as light as you could want. The grips are adjustable, but...

    Tuning Titan spring/Diana 460 experiment - predictions wanted

    You asked for predictions....I think it will have lower than 20 fpe....I will take 18 fpe if there are betting squares being offered. Less violent recoil, and a preferred pellet choice towards the heavier side of gr. Weight.

    Crosman Vantage NP .177

    New seal installed with some extra attention paid in various other places during the time it was all apart. Shot cycle feels radically different even from when it was brand new at shot 1. Overall quieter, and with less recoil...which the scopes will appreciate. Took 1 shot over the chrono in...

    Paypal No Longer Safe for Selling Airguns (Scammers Have Won)

    Seems like every other day there is a scam post or problems with a payment service recently. Sad state of affairs Just to play devils advocate. I understand the desire to not do business on here through the classifieds with someone of no reputation, especially on a transaction of $3500. Out of...

    N/A What to look for in a used Mrod?

    I own the gen 2 in .25. Great gun even without any modifications. Definitely beginner friendly, and parts are available. Easy to fill with a hand pump too which is nice if you don't feel spendy enough to get a compressor.

    Springs for air guns ?

    Rather than make an adjustable spring has there ever been an experiment with a dual set trigger sear. Essentially creating an option to cock the rifle to the first sear engagementfor low/medium power, or push say an inch further on the cocking stroke to engage the second with max compression and...

    Gamo Sooo I did a thing

    I agree on wood stocks and springers...and not passing up a good deal. I will be curious to see your Gamo experience once it arrives. Congrats on the new rifle!

    Non- Lead Ammo

    I gotcha...I admit I don't concern myself with the amount of lead exposure due to handling pellets. I do wash up before eating or taking a wad of dip out of the tin. I have been friends with guys who have involved themselves with pistol training as an instructor. Gun dealing, and competitive...

    Non- Lead Ammo

    This is purely out of curiousity...if the lead free option from what I have seen is more expensive, and by you own account less accurate....what is the upside that has made you want to shoot them exclusively?
