I am looking for a fill probe for a Lane regulator. It is 1/4 inch X 1 or 6.4X25mm. Lane Regulators is taking a brake so I can’t order one from his eBay store. And all the probes I see are 6.9mm.

I am going to build a shooting bench for a public airgun shooting range. I am building it as an addition to the local rifle range. It will be sitting out in the sun and weather all the time. So pressure treated wood obviously. I am going to be using this bench myself all the time so I’m...

I have gotten a lot of fun and enjoyment from my BB guns over the winter. Shooting in the shop has gotten me through the long cold of Iowa. I am also having a blast with restoring old Daisy BB guns. There are so many of them and parts are easy to find. So now that I’m going outside I won’t be...

I have been shooting for a very long time and shooting seriously since 2008. I was blessed with a 25 yard indoor shooting range year round and if I opened the big door a full 70 yards to my fence. There was a house on one side and garage on the other with mature trees. Even though I shot 100-300...

You are shooting a group of targets. It’s more than a couple. Like ten groups of five or something where one bad shot does not really make or break the day. Would you rather miss the first shot or the last shot in the group? If you miss the first shot your confidence goes down but you can...

I had to get one of these. Laitly I have been getting interested in Daisy BB guns. And I also have a fifteen foot indoor pistol range I just started using. This is the wolds most accurate BB gun and it is made for five meter shooting. Discount codes and all it was 160 bucks. As soon as I cocked...

I am starting a field target club and it is all starting to happen And it is all happening like a snowball. I need to think about details. I want to have the first practice day in four months. So far I have a gun range I can use . The Facebook group with 24 members is going great. I have...

I was expecting a little project restoring my 1934 Buck Jones. Fortunately all it needed was a good clean and the missing shot tube. And now it’s done. Along the way I did a lot of research looking for a shot tube. And after restoring my Buck Jones and a 1894 I kinda like playing with them...

I had a terrible thought last night. Anybody ever drop a fine target rifle with an expensive scope on a concrete floor? What was the damage. Makes me sick to even think about it. It did not happen to me . But did it happened to you?

Back in 2016 I decided to buy a Crosman 2240 C02 pistol for fun. And quickly fell down that rabbit hole. This is when the Crosman custom shop was still a thing and you could build and dream on the computer all night. So I decided rather than buy a pistol and modify it . I would just buy the...

I was just looking for a break barrel and something with open sights.

I have had this gun all my life. It belonged to a relative and I found it in the garage. I remember it working and shooting bottles with it. I even shot my neighbor in the chest when he surprised me by jumping out with a knife. It left a red mark on his chest. At some point over the last fifty...

I had a leak in my HFT500 and found air coming from the barrel and transfer port. The firing valve was not holding air. I cleaned it up and used some polish to seal it up and that worked. But I ordered a new valve and seat for it. After fitting the new parts it leaks worse than ever. Is there...

I recently started a Facebook group to get local people from eastern Iowa involved in airguns and Field target. So far I have nine members and I post up information and videos every day. Just five to ten minutes videos hoping people will not get sick of it . Any suggestions on content ? Things...

I built this gun tote a few years ago. I wanted it to look old so I put a thick coat of gray primer on it followed quickly by a can of green gloss enamel. The paint shattered like glass when it dried. Looks like old windows frames or something. I dug around for some stuff to decorate it. And...

I started a Facebook group called Iowa Field Target Association. https://www.facebook.com/share/g/14xztwaHB1/?mibextid=wwXIfr Please join if you want and if you are in the Eastern Iowa area please join and help bring Field Target shooting to a Iowa

I am trying to build a field target club in IOWA. I live in the Iowa city Cedar Rapids area and figure an hours and a half drive is about as far as I would want to drive every month to shoot. More like forty five minutes. But let’s see where people live before scouting a location I think the...

I just bought the Beeman 1357 Underlever. I have some high hopes for this rifle target shooting in my back yard. The stock Gods smiled on me today. I have to say I was not expect this stock to look this good. Most beech stocks don’t have any grain. This looks really nice. Darker than I...

I decided to get the Beeman under lever today. For 249 dollars it’s really a good price and from all the reviews it looks pretty good for the short distance I can regularly shoot. I ordered a bipod and then the bipod mount and suppressor from Buck Rail. Quiet is a big consideration with this...
