    More general questions

    There's questions about, how many of this, or that (sights, shooting sticks, mufflers, etc.) , do you own. Here's a question - I like to experiment. Saying that a given item is the "best"...is a useless comment unless you actually have more than a couple, of that item to test that thought...

    Classified section

    N/A Outdoor range for SoCal shooters

    I don't recall if this range has been brought up as a good place to shoot, but... https://r66ssp.com/ It's off the 15 Fwy. near Lytle Creek. I e-mailed them the other day and asked about the use of PCP pistols and rifles at their range. I'm 'assuming" that their private bays may cost a little...

    Brocock/BRK An actual..."carbine", NOT, a shoulder stocked pistol

    From the "Truth about Guns" definition of "Carbine" - "In modern usage it seems “carbine” is an acceptable way to refer to any rifle that we consider to be compact, whether or not it has a larger brother. Manufacturers have created and continue to create rifles that are new from the ground up —...

    Brocock/BRK Brocock Sniper XR, general thoughts

    Anyone here owned one of the Brocock Sniper XR's ? I did a search, but didn't find answers to my question. Looking for your overall feelings of the gun. Actual owners thoughts. Not what I can read myself. Anyway, my thought is to do the..."opposite"...as many do with pistols. Rather than...

    Proper polishing of parts

    I've seen WAY too many "experts" (YouTube, and photos on this site) attempt to polish/smooth trigger parts...BADLY ! So here's a little help. The way that many seem to be doing the work are actually changing the angles of the given sliding parts and doing more harm than good. Using "round"...

    Airgun Technologies AGT Uragan vs Uragan 2

    Any of you boys that own the original Uragan, also own or spend any time shooting a Uragan 2 ? I looked onto YouTube a little, doesn't seem to be any, "one vs. the other", that I could find. But I did notice that once the stock is removed, the guns actually seem pretty different under the skin...

    Other Another...NOT a GK1 thread

    Got myself a new Zoraki Ultra (.22) yesterday. Interesting gun. I normally don't care for the "Star Wars" looking plastic guns, but I've been curious about it so... Interesting looking. Had to remove the grips, palm rest to make room for my hand. It came to me in its lowest position, still...

    FX FX went backward

    WTH, FX went from proper, readable, actual meaningful gauges to barely readable toy gauges as their guns progressed. Not sure "progressed" is the right word ! So, what were they thinking in those 12 or so years ? Here's an "old" (from about 2012 !)...FX Bobcat with proper, readable, usable...

    AirMaks Arms For all of you Krait (and Katran) owners

    Just in case you all haven't seen this - AirMaks has a fully adjustable trigger for the Krait (all models). The blade rotates, moves up and down, and moves forward and aft. Takes minutes to install, and you can play with the adjustments until the proverbial...cats come home. Adds just a...

    What the "Fat Boy", should have been

    On one hand, I like the way that the (original) Huma Suppressors work. I've never tried the M50 "wrapped" suppressor. It seems that Huma is going away from the Kevlar wrapped design and going to a baffled design (???), so I'll never get to try the original wrapped version. BUT...another brand...
