    I Have Finally Decided On my Hunting Setups,,, Took 8 Months

    Like it says, I started my hunting air gun collection 8 months ago, after buying the 54 Diana AKP. I have carefully selected 7 more springers to that collection since. and yes, only springers! That 54 AKP is the most accurate, and hardest hitting springer I own, and out to 50 yards on par with...

    The 177 HW77K First Hunt

    I'm pretty happy with this 77k, it has been bled, and it is putting meat in the pot! All head shots, and am now 4 for 5! I would been 5 for 5, but not taking body shots with the 177. I just don't have the faith I would in the 22 cal 77K. But here are were the 3 from yesterday before the trip...

    Optics UTG Bugbuster 3-12x32 AO reduced price to move! From Ohio reduced.

    This 3-12x32 BB, I was going to put this on my HW30s, but decided to go with a 2-7x32 instead. Plenty of power at 12x for the longer range guns, with great reticle and the locking adjustable turrets work great, and simple to zero after sighting in! I used the rings that came with it, so they are...

    Well I'm going to guess this will be a long post. I have looked and found little info on prepping a brand new springer, so, this is what I do, and it's served me well. But first I am astounded at how quick I got this here in Ohio, from the Netherlands! 3 DAYS! I ordered it the 12th and got it...

    HW/Weihrauch HW50s Update, I Got It Figured Out!

    I posted on this rifle a couple days after getting it last month. Happy with the accuracy, but I was getting two different POI. One on the bench, but after sighted in on the bench, I was hitting about 3/8 @ 4 to 5 O'clock. I spent a week trying to find with this rifle liked for a hold to shoot...

    Diana I'll say it again, NO MORE NEW GUNS!

    Well last evening I found a 36 Diana, that the seller claimed was in Very Good Conditions. But with the pics he sent I really couldn't tell how good VERY GOOD was. But by chance he was only 45 minutes away. So I dickered a price with him if it was he stated. I aint sure but think I found good...

    Help Me .177 or .22

    I have both, a 54 Diana in 22 and the 34 in 177. Both plenty accurate for 30 to 35 yard hunting needs. BUT, will the 177, with the 8.4 grain Diablos it prefers be enough for rabbit and squirrel. What if the ole raccoon or possum are targeted occasionally? Please, no thinkers, just those that...

    Diana Revived 34 .177

    Picked this up the other day on ebay. Looked like it needed refinished and planned on a Vortek HO spring kit when it came. To my surprise it was immaculate. The finish was great, and the power was good as new. But with 20 to 30 fps ES with most pellets. So I put a HO PG4 kit in it. WOW I...

    N/A Old Pumper New Guts and Look

    I decided to give a little love to my old Crossman 392PA. New brass cartridge with new valves and springs installed. Then I decided to sand it down and Linseed oil then seal with Deft Polyurethane Satin finish. This gun started life as a Mach 1 Steroid with billet cocker. It is even better with...

    Diana Diana 34 .177 --- What Have I got?

    I had so much enjoyment out of restoring and improving the old 392PA pumper, that I have been looking for another older airgun to restore. Not knowing for sure the vintage or particulars about this specific air rifle I figured $220.00 dont buy much these days, so I made the offer, and the seller...
