    HW/Weihrauch HW30S restoration

    I bought these 2 HW30S rifles recently. Both were NOS (new old stock). Problem was i was told they weren't shootable in their original state. This was due to dried leather seals and gummed up lubes from 50+ years of sitting unused. So, I brought them to Airguntunes.com in New Hampshire. Scott...

    Beeman Yet another R8 in the herd

    Couldn't resist buying yet another R8....this makes 4 total. Unfortunately, this one is a little bit sad. Looks great, but the pellet doesn't even make it to the target at 20 yards. Fortunately, I have tons of spares for it thanks to last year's R8 hoard purchase. I'm going to see if I...

    Beeman Beeman R1FT

    The R1 has been touted as the "workhorse" of the Beeman line since it's inception. Perhaps it could also be described as the most versatile rifle Beeman ever produced. How many times have we seen that marvelous post by Dual Mag Mike showing all the different variations? One of those...

    The R10 came in a deluxe version with a longer barrel and a checkered pistol grip as well as a standard model with a shorter barrel (16.14-inches/410mm) and no checkering. These two are the latter. Got these rifles at auction. One is San Rafael and the other is a Santa Rosa. I believe the...

    N/A FWB 120/124Dw

    Got a visit from my friend Mike yesterday afternoon on a blustery New England day. He was carrying a very rare and special airgun....an FWB 120. Now I'm sure some of you have never heard of an F120. Not surprising as they were made 50 plus years ago!! They are a product of a man named...

    Theoben SLR98...cure for rainy day blues

    Crazy rain and flooding here in New England today. What better way to shake off those Winter blahs than some indoor target shooting on my 20 yard range. And what better gun to plink with than one of my SLR98 Carbines. Just fill a few Mags and let her rip! Such a simple pleasure. This...
