    Scuba Tank Inspired PCP Acquisition??

    That sounds pretty much like the ideal scenario. For myself, all the variables involved in my situation when I started out with this pointed me solidly in the direction of C02 and I believe we all know how much money we dump in to this hobby. Had things been different perhaps I go down the pcp...

    Scuba Tank Inspired PCP Acquisition??

    I believe it is two full days of course work and then the submission of the application which I have heard can take 2 weeks to several months depending on how closely they look at you and what they are looking at.

    Scuba Tank Inspired PCP Acquisition??

    That is an interesting thought. You would think that it would be pointless for retailers or dealers to bring pcp guns to a Canada that do not comply with the applicable laws, but they do. People with their PAL certification, which allows a person to buy and own powder firearms, can own air...

    How do we feel about the Crosman DPMS automatic capable rifles?

    In case the rest of the group may be interested I understand the pitfalls of Replica Co2 pistols but I like being able to mess around with the slide and field strip it if possible and whatever else a guy can get up to.They are the worst for gas, a couple I own are lucky to have any velocity...

    Scuba Tank Inspired PCP Acquisition??

    I am a faithful CO2 shooter, I also have a couple of break barrels, a single pump pneumatic and a multi pump pneumatic. I have never really considered a PCP because of a few reasons. I live in Canada so the max f/s I can bring up here is 500 and from what I can tell, aside from in the long run...

    How do we feel about the Crosman DPMS automatic capable rifles?

    Good morning. Interesting you should say that. I also have the Colt Commander and it has basically been issue free and is one of my better replicas. Quite accurate at point of aim and not as powerful as it sounds but still ok velocity. Can’t underestimate the value in the use of pellgun oil...

    How do we feel about the Crosman DPMS automatic capable rifles?

    That is a good point. They certainly aren’t conducive to repair work. I also now have a houseful of tools to work on these things and am pretty much never successful in completing a repair that lasts for any amount of time. The other thing is the use of flimsy plastic in some fairly critical...

    How do we feel about the Crosman DPMS automatic capable rifles?

    I agree, I have finally reached the conclusion the CO2 powered BB rifles are a money pit and should be avoided. The only BB shooter I have left is the AR 15 platform Hellboy but I’m guessing it’s only a matter of time with that one. Pellet shooters seem to be better as my Sig and Crosman 1077...

    BTW, hello everyone. I’m new, looking forward to discussing non powder burning guns with you.

    How do we feel about the Crosman DPMS automatic capable rifles?

    I’m wondering if anyone who purchased one of these, including the Bushmaster and the R1, has just a whole lot of jamming problems as well as just general issues with the transfer mechanism between the magazine and the barrel.
