    Daystate Revere .177 unregulated at AoA on sale for $900

    You will need at least .65" to clear the stock .177 mag. Carm is your friend when it comes to extra mags. I have high capacity and low capacity 13 rd and 10 rd from Carm. Medium rings should give you the right amount of height. Mine are sports match 1" rings. A 3-4" mod is all that is needed to...

    Taipan Veteran I failure to fire

    Most likely the hammer spring is screwed in too far causing hammer spring bind. It is a short and heavy spring so not a lot of adjustment needed to change velocity. Once that is backed out and checked, then sear engagement would be next. With all the adjustments on the Taipan trigger group it is...

    How much to dispatch a Skunk

    You can neutralize the oils, if it sprays, with a combination of peroxide, baking soda and dish soap. The ratios needed are on the internet.

    FX King Synthetic

    Damn finger grooves. Why does everyone think they need finger grooves on stocks. Smooth grip fits eveyone. Finger grooves only fit some people.

    Hand pump Inline filter Silica beads

    I don't even degas while pumping. Just go slow and then take a break. Degassing means you have to waste pumps to get back up to tank pressure generating heat along the way. The first cigarette filter catches all the oil and moisture coming in to the oil/water trap.

    Hand pump Inline filter Silica beads

    I put the foam filters on either side of those beads to keep the beads from being forced into the holes and jamming them. Put the cigarette style filter on the in air side and it will keep your beads clean longer.

    Other New Taipan Standard .22

    The sling never touches the gun as the magpul has a quick detach socket for the quick detach loop I put on the sling. It also has anti-rotation built into the socket.

    Other New Taipan Standard .22

    I single point sling mine with a Magpul quick detach picatinny mount under the scope. Made my own single point sling. Thinking of making a leather cheek pad to go over the receiver so you don't have your face on cold aluminum.

    Steiner or Discovery scope

    I don't even see where that scope is even in the steiner lineup. You sure that is not some knockoff? I will take german glass over china if the option comes up. Very happy with my Steiner 1-4. I have japanese, german, philipine and china glass. There is a difference in quality if that matters to...

    Steiner or Discovery scope

    Just get a scope mount or scope rings that can take a reddot on top. I wouldn't attach a reddot straight to the scope.

    Red Panda Update from Karma Airguns

    Remember when FX did the same thing to Daystate on the Ghost hammer spring adjuster claiming it was the same design they had. Made Daystate hold back on the Ghost and send out replacements. Don't you guys know FX is the only game in town and people better stop copying their ideas. Notice no one...

    Brocock/BRK Bantam Slingshot too loud.

    The striker adjuster just changes the distance that the hammer has to travel to hit the valve pin. There is no spring adjustment on the slingshot hammer. You can shim the hammer spring with washers to give it more tension. Mainly you just shoot a few shots over a chronograph to see where you are...

    Brocock/BRK Bantam Slingshot too loud.

    After looking, they already make PEEK screws so see if you can find a proper set screw that will fit and that should do it.

    Brocock/BRK Bantam Slingshot too loud.

    If it has the striker adjuster like the huntsman, you could have one made from PEEK plastic. That would get rid of the metal on metal sound.

    Clean up crew showed up.

    Had a hawk trying to pull a dead opposum off the road, so I stopped and kicked the opposum to the shoulder so the hawk wouldn't get hit.
