    Other Just entered the PCP world, fully addicted now...dont know what direction to go now

    I too feel that you should wear out the Notos... and in the meantime spend some time here reading the important stuff==> the guns that guys have problems with, so that you can avoid them. Also, I am very much in the buy once crowd... but even a number of high end guns will have issues==>...

    Other Acceptable Co2 rifle?

    Spywiz, Not sure where your buddy lives, but another thing about CO2 guns is that their performance suffers in cold weather. By performance, I mean that the velocity drops off when the temp. drops. May not be an issue where he lives (mild winters) or for the pesting that he wants to do...

    Other Acceptable Co2 rifle?

    Translation... Firefighters use SCBA tanks and often replace them, perhaps he can pick one of the tanks up, get it re-hydro-ed if necessary, and for the cost of a PCP compressor, or maybe even just have his buddies fill his tanks. He can step up to a PCP without the outrageous cost the rest of...

    Umarex Who got their first batch Umarex Zelos ?

    If accurate, Pyramid Air lists it at 6 pounds, which is quite light in the airgun world. They list the velocity for the 25 caliber as 1,000 fps. With the muzzle energy at 36 ft/lbs, that has to be with a non lead pellet. Jerry

    N/A Your Ultimate Pinker or Hunting Gun

    ZeroChance, What an incredibly handy looking carbine. Caliber? Be curious to see how it shoots at 50 yards. Yet to have what I consider my ultimate hunting gun... Think it may be a Vulcan 3 (500mm) in 30 caliber(?), we'll see. Jerry

    FX M3 or Uragan in 25 caliber

    Amopescare, My Uragan 2 is 25 caliber (6.35mm), I have only fired 29.5 & 34 grain pellets. I have not fired any slugs, I'm sure some here have though. Jerry

    FX M3 or Uragan in 25 caliber

    Amopescare, What caliber are you looking for? My 25 caliber Uragan 2 is pushing a 34 grain pellet at 991 fps, this is as it came from the seller (Talon Tunes). That equates to 74.16 foot pounds or 100.55 joules. Jerry "Che calibro stai cercando? Il mio Uragan 2 calibro 25 spinge un pellet da...

    Airgun Technologies Uragan2 Q

    There's only 4 inches difference between the two... In my mind that doesn't matter much (size wise), you may feel different. The Vulcan3 would be a different story (to me anyway) as there is approx. 8 inches of difference between the 500mm & 700mm versions. Regardless, they are a large bulky...

    N/A Are there any manufacturers making musket looking repeaters like the famous girardoni?

    A couple of weeks ago I came across a video of a guy shooting a Girardoni replica. Unfortuanately I did not watch it and don't recall the you tuber? I know that's a lot of help. Never mind, it was one of these below. A couple of years ago I read a great article about it being used in the...

    Epic Can the Epic displace the Vulcan 3?

    I've got a Uragan 2- 700mm. I couldn't believe how enormous the Uragan 2 looked when I first unboxed it, I'm talking bulky looking as in shroud/bottle diameter (full disclosure - This was my first bottle gun). I believe the Vulcan 3 has an even larger diameter bottle and the shroud is the same...

    Airgun Technologies Brand new Urugan 2 delivered with deep scratch on CF bottle 🙀

    Jay, 'Deep' is not very definitive. Regardless, I'd definitely contact the dealer and request he make it good. Was the shipping box damaged? If so it's more of an insurance thing with the shipper. Photo-document it and the box. Jerry

    Umarex My Notos first impressions

    Phoenix Cow, Great review. The Only thing preventing me from recommending to friends as a first PCP is the &*%$#^ magazines. Mine did not function. The replacement Maple magazines functioned without a hitch. You'd think by now Umarex would've gotten the memo. If you haven't already done so...

    Benjamin [RESOLVED] Are these good picks as my first Marauder .22 pellets?

    I'd FIRST go to Wally World (or wherever is local to you) and pick up some Crosman Premiers and try them in your gun. Inexpensive and if your gun shoots them well you can always pick up other pellets later if you desire, or Not. Regarding your choices... *I'd skip all of them go with JTS Domed...

    AirMaks Arms Anyone know the max energy of Katran .22?

    Jim, I agree, besides performance and issues I look at length and weight, and the Katran Long at 40 1/2 inches is really long (talk about a hypocrite - I've got a Uragan 2 700 that is only an inch shorter and a whole two+ pounds heavier!). Jerry

    AirMaks Arms Anyone know the max energy of Katran .22?

    For comparison... your Caiman X has the same barrel length (520mm) and air cylinder capacity (285cc) as the Katran Long. It's 8 1/2" shorter and weighs 1.2 pounds more. Jerry

    Hatsan looking to purchase 1st pcp gun for plinking

    I had a Notos. Regarding 'long' range... I feel the Notos is good for shooting squirrels at 35 yards minus. I shot the one I had at 50 yards and it was accurate enough, say 3/4" groups IIRC? However, some of the Notos magazines have a reputation for not functioning (mine did not). There are...

    JTS Where should I buy my first PCP?

    I've bought from all 3. All three are good. See which has the model you want, and compare prices. I've also bought from Talon Tunes, and been happy with them. Pyramid Air has a $10 off if you allow 'push' notifications, you can cancel it after you make your order and use it, or not. Pyramid...
