    Hatsan TactAir 1.6L fill tank

    Thanks Mike. My rifle is pressurized up to 2,000psi and has a fairly small air tank so I'm hoping the cylinder will fill it a few times.

    Hatsan TactAir 1.6L fill tank

    My local sporting store has a sale going on for this tank. Regular price is $239 and the sale price is $169. It comes with 2 gages, hose and seems to be a complete kit. Also, this store has a new policy of filling tanks for free. Seems like a good deal. Anyone have a comment? Up until now...

    Need new scope for benjamin Maximus

    I have the TDK Suppressor on the barrel and I've often thought that the barrel being unshielded with the added length of the TDK could be causing inaccuracy. I just read something about using shims from a piece of pop can helps, but I like the idea of an extra barrel band. Where do I get that part?

    Need new scope for benjamin Maximus

    I've got a Center Point 6x32 AO scope on my Maximus. I'd like to get something better but understand, I paid $150 for the Maximus brand new. I varmint hun 25 t0 50 yards max. Any suggestion? I can't say for sure, but I thing somethings wrong with the Centerpoint. It will hold zero all today...

    PSI and FPS

    Hi. My only air rifle is the Benjamin Maximus. As you know, its limit is about 2,000 psi and very easy to hand pump. FPS with 22 cal, 15.89 grain pellets is somewhere between 850 to 900 (I think). Ok, so my question is, what are you gaining by going to a rifle such as the Gauntlet or Marauder...

    Benjamin Maximus Foster fitting repair?

    Update: I removed the foster fitting from the rifle and was confused to see a screw driver fitting on the inside of it. Turning it did nothing. I finally figured out to grab the fitting slot with a tiny needle nose and pulled it out. There's a whitish yellow O ring in it. Looking down into...

    Benjamin Maximus Foster fitting repair?

    Hello again. I followed your advice and put some water/soap on the foster fitting and sure enough, it's bubbling like crazy. Before I order a new one, is there any way to try and repair it or clean it? And once I remove it, what do I put on the threads to seal it? Thanks!

    Tuning Benjamin Maximus leaking air

    Hi. Quick question, I've never done anything to this rifle except fill it with hand pump and shoot it. If there's a preventative maintenance lubing, I haven't done it. So it typically sits with air pressure in the green for weeks on end, and I usually just give it 20 or 30 pumps when I'm...

    Umarex Gauntlet 2 - new model

    Hey, no offense to anyone that owns this gun but I just had the opportunity to hold it at my local gun store. I have to say, shouldering this thing feels like a bazooka! Seriously, it seems really big and heavy. I had thought I might be in the market for it before actually picking it up, by...

    Scope for Benjamin Maximus

    Hi. This rifle is really accurate but I need a good inexpensive scope for it. I'm typically 20 to 50 yards. It's a 22 cal. Thanks!

    PCP rifle safety

    This is difficult for me to say but I need to tell how stupid I was. Thankfully, no one was injured. I've got a Benjamin Maximus PCP rifle and shoot varmints in my backyard. I am the only one who uses the rifle and it is only my wife and I in the house. There are times when I load the rifle...

    Thinking of buying a Benjamin maximus? You'd better read this.

    I agree. It's the only pcp rifle I own, and I'm very happy with it. You really have to love the 40 to 45 total pumps from low to high. I can't say for sure, but I doubt there's another pcp rifle out there that's this easy to hand pump.

    JSB Grain Comparison - How to decide which one?

    One more question about pellet selection. I'm looking at the JSB options specifically for 22 caliber. Without going into the discussion of the different pellet configurations; dome, hollow, pointed, etc., I'm totally confused as to how to make a decision on the weight (grain) of the pellet...

    Price Gouging

    I just checked E Bay for fun. Prices are worse than Amazon. Probably the same people that made a fortune selling Beanie Babies until the bottom fell out of the market and they were stuck with worthless junk. :) I really hate to say it, but it kills me to read topics where someone says they...

    Price Gouging

    So I started the topic asking where the Crosman discount code had gone to. The explanation from Crosman is that someone bought almost $70,000 worth of products with the discount code, and then resold it all for a profit. I've also read many posts asking where all the ammo has gone to. Sure...

    Pellet Maximum Distance Question

    Just wondering. With a typical PCP 22 caliber rifle (mine is a Benjamin Maximus at about 800 fps I think), How far can the pellet (15.89 grain) travel at a maximum distance? For example, pointing up maybe 20 degrees into the air, how far will the pellet travel? (I would never do it...

    Benjamin Marauder Discount Code? Did I miss out?

    Hi. A few months ago I used a discount code on the Crosman Benjamin website to get a really good price on a Marauder. I couldn't spend the money back then, and I can't remember what the code was. I watched the banners at the top of the AGN page but I don't see it. Did I miss out? If not...
