    Are all oilless PCP pumps on amazon the same?

    I picked up a cheap no-name compressor from amazon last may for $168. Its works really well and looks well made. The power supply went out in it recently but that was an easy fix as those power supplies are sold on amazon as well. I looked at other pumps to see what's out there and it looks...

    can anyone make .172 cal slugs?

    I'm experimenting with a .172 cal firearm barrel on my airgun and the guy who was making me ammo is no longer making the same style of slugs he was in the past. Is there anyone out there that can make .172 cal slugs?

    Nutria hunting in Texas

    Has anyone done this? Do they really have a presents in Texas? I'm in far east Texas and I have heard of them in Lake O the Pines and also Caddo, but they dont seem all that common. I'd love to try hunting these and it seems like our air guns are pretty much made for them!

    AEA My AEA Bigbore Challenger Bullpup Chassis

    I've been working super hard on this chassis for some time, over a month I think. I finally got it to a point to where I think it done. It is the most complicated thing I have designed to date and I'm really excited with how its turned out. The gun is a 357 AEA sidelever Challenger, a beast of a...

    The thing I hate most about .177 cal....

    ...Firearms don't use this caliber size. This means, if you want to make your own barrel, or try something off the shelf, you are most likely going to get a .172 cal barrel or tube, which is what firearms use. I really want a rifle that can shoot heavy 177 slugs, but I look at the twist rates...

    What are your thoughts on 3d printed accessories?

    I was wondering what the general opinion was on 3d printed parts. The first 3d printed part I got was a chassis for the original AV Avenger, it is the Bonicci Goods design and is a hybrid unit. It has a 3d printed frame and carbon fiber panels on the side. Its been a pretty solid piece and my...

    AEA Aftermarket regulator options for AEA standard Challenger .25 cal?

    The factory AEA regulator on my .25 challenger has stopped regulating and I was wondering if there is any options from 3rd parties. Its really disappointing since the one in the gun now is already a replacement. I figure that these AEA regulators are just garbage. I have been in contact with...

    AEA Challenger Long Stock Chassis

    I've been working on a chassis for my AEA Challenger Long Stock (aka Standard). I still have some work to do, but I think I'm really close. I was bonding the fore-grip to the rear, but I hate working with glue. The best glue I have used so far is superglue, but that leaves a messy white residue...

    New to East Texas

    I just moved into Longview about a month ago. Now that I'm finally settled in, I'm looking to make some new friends and find folks who want to share this hobby. I love shooting these things and tinkering with them and it would be great to meet people in the area since I don't know anyone around...

    Avenger barrel stability and fix

    I have the Bonacci goods chassis on my 177 avenger and have been chasing some accuracy issue that i have noticed right after filling the gun. It usually takes about 30 shots for the gun to get into a sweet spot. I set my tune with my chrono right after filling, so I dont think thats it, but...

    Can someone help me test a .25 moderator?

    I have been making some moderators and someone asked me if I can make one in 25 cal for a 90ftlbs AEA Challenger pro. The thing is, I don't have a .25 cal and don't have anything even approaching 90ftlbs. I'm worried that the moderator might shoot off the end of the rifle like a rocket, or the...

    177 knock out, Hades, and Gamma 3 test

    Playing around with this wax block I still have, its Parafin wax mixed with mineral oil 50%. Shot it today with 3 types of ammo in this order: Kvintor Gamma 3, JSB Hades, and finally the 10.03gr knockout. All are in .177. Speeds are in the order of shooting. My Avenger always shoots the first...

    Perfectly expanded JSB kockout slug .177 pics

    This is the JSB Knockout in .177, 10.03gr running at 1000fps. I was playing with some paraffin wax mixed with mineral oil to make some sort of poor mans ballistic medium, and the slug was fired into it at point blank. I would say don't do this since its a huge mess. The expansion of the slug is...

    air venturi avenger 177 heavy pellets?

    Has anyone had any luck with really heavy pellets in their avenger 177 over 10.5gr? I have tried a number of heavy pellets/slugs going all the way to 16.97gr but have had terrible accuracy with anything over 10.5gr. It seems like the gun was designed to shoot in the 10.5 range and pretty much...

    Air Venturi Avenger 177 terrible accuracy?

    Hi Folks, im new to air guns in general (im a total nub) and recently got one of these Air Venturi Avengers in 177. I have only been shooting close range but recently I have been trying to stretch it out to 50 yards. So far my results have been less than satisfactory. I have shot 4 types of...
