    Easy fix, glad to hear it was easy to source. Honestly, I am kind of amazed.

    That should clean up nicely! Finding a safety switch might be a problem them. I will give the same advice I gave to my troops back in the day.. "Keep your booger hook off the bang switch!" ;)

    N/A fx wildcat compact in 177 for hft

    My assumption when I read this was the OP already owned a FX in 177. If that is true... Shoot what you got, if you enjoy it then plan on stepping up your game with bigger purchases to hopefully do better. Expert advice is a duel edged sword. They are going to point you in the right direction to...

    N/A fx wildcat compact in 177 for hft

    The real experts will be along eventually so in their absence I will offer a YES you can use it for HFT. My Wilcat in 22 is laser accurate & I cant imagine your 177 being any worse. I dont know what kind of velocity the 177 gets but you will likely need to turn the power wheel down a tich on...

    Aesthetics: excluding wood furnitured guns, 1 to 5 how much do they impact your purchasing decisions?

    Most of the time 4-5 for me. Most of my guns are very pretty. Smooth lines & almost elegent in a way. Having said that I do have several "work" guns that arent so pretty. They sit in the truck, tackle box or ride on my hip. They didnt start life pretty & have been used hard since. They are...

    Dealing with stuck pellet tin lids

    I keep a small flat head screwdriver in my shooting box. Slip it under the rim & give it a slight twist. Once usually fixes it (vacuum seal?). On stubborn ones I will do it 3-4 times around the tin. Works every time with little fuss.

    I just saw that. I've got an offer pending on a Diana or I would pounce on it.

    N/A Help we win!

    I reached out to the guy on the Diana yesterday without a response yet. Unless someone PMed him before me it's mine. I will definitely post the results of the match.

    Thanks for the heads up! I guess I needed to check the classifieds more closely.

    N/A Webley Hurricane vs Daisy 777

    Off the cuff that sounds like an odd match up doesnt it? But why not, dont we often compare the accuracy of one good shooting gun against another much finer one? So is the case today. Today I took delivery of a Daisy 777, I picked it up from @dfemmert (solid dude with another 777 hes thinking...

    N/A Help we win!

    ...me he wouldn’t be home for Thanksgiving but would for Christmas, he had the audacity to challenge me with the IHMSA range. The cocky little sh*t thinks he can take me ON MY RANGE with his 10m pistol! But it gets better, owing to my old age & infirmity (his words) he will allow me the use of a...

    Utah AG slow to ship

    I think Amazon has warped what we all think of as fast. IMO UA does just fine. I ordered a FX Wildcat from them on Fri 11/08 & it delivered 11/18. A solid 4 days of that was it getting from UT to KY. Throw in the weekend and 2-3 days processing isnt bad.

    Centerfire v. Air…

    I live in the country on 50ac so space & noise arent an issue. Ive done nearly every CF discipline over the years & have an expansive list of guns in many calibers. I also reload for almost all of them. That was then.. Now I mostly shoot airguns. Why? I sat here & pondered it for a few min &...

    What did you order / receive airgun related today? Thread

    FedEx was kind enough to drop these off yesterday but just now opening the boxes.

    Daisy 2x Minty 777s

    Wow, congrats! Good thing you spotted those before I did! Ive been casually looking for a 7xx in good shape for a few weeks now. I owned a 747 decades ago but foolishly gave it to a nephew who later traded it for a skateboard (SMH).

    Other Webley Tempest

    Very nice! The very 1st airgun I ever bought was a Webley Hurricane. I still have & shoot it regularly. That was 45ish years ago. They will last a lifetime if taken care of. I almost bought a Tempest to go with it but I was a young man & they werent cheap even back then.
