Yes, 1 piece mounts are usually best. I would only use seperate rings for a lightweight scope on an HW30 or HW50. Some folks have had some big field target scopes that the center part where the turrets attach would high center in a 1 piece mount though.

Started back into airguns as an adult with a Crosman Discovery. After discovering field target, I found the limits of the disco and set about modifying a bit. Got tired of the project fairly quickly, and got an HW97, sent it to Motorhead for a tune and it was my steady setup for a few years. I...

Cowboy Mounted Shooter is what my handle stood for when I took it. I am familiar with western...

Lengua tacos are as good as it gets. How many lizard eggs does it take to make an omelet? The Cajuns say you can make gumbo out of anything that can crawl, swim, or fly.

Maurader should be fine after a basic setup. I have never met a PCP rifle that was not accurate, spring guns are a different story. What kind of accuracy are you looking for? 50 yards on out with pellets, wind is a much bigger factor than it is with powder burners. When you think in mils or...

Nearly every pellet magazine made is a revolver...

I have never known anyone shooting in any form of accuracy competition that wanted less weight. The general consensus is weight equals stability in rifles, handguns, and archery. Care to expand on your goals?

Move your thumb from across the stock to pointing forward along side the stock. Changing pressure on the back of the grip changes poi up and down. Make sure your rest is padded and at the balance point of the forend. You need to develop a very specific shot process (a checklist) to go...

.177 wadcutter with 3 pumps from a crosman 1377 won't exit a mouse, but rolls them dead. Never had exits from pigeons using wadcutters from a crosman 2100 with 10 pumps, but dropped them fast.

not over .177 when I lived there.

Suspect you won't get anywhere with this. There were probably some municipalities that banned them. It was easiest to shut of sales to the whole state than to try to figure out where and where they are not legal.

I have resisted so far. Sank too much money into a 1377 some years back. It worked well, but I still had to pump it. Got a 2240xl in december, so it already had the steel breech. Did the trigger spring mod and it is shooting nice, but wasting a bit of CO2. Going to try and limit myself to...

Has anyone tried the process used on flame maple guitars? Dye first with black, then sand most of that off leaving enough to highlight some grain. Then top that with some color and layers of clear.

I don't know where in north Texas you are, but Fun on the Run paintball in northwest fort worth does bulk fill CO2. I have also had them fill my scuba tank for PCP's, but the dive shop on Alta Mere is cheaper and friendlier.

I have had my thumb smashed by that model of sidelever. It was a long, long time ago and I had no idea of the safety issues then. Thumbnail grew back, but I always keep a hand on the cocking lever now.

Castle doctrine here says your car is an extension of your home. We can keep loaded firearms in the car as long as you are legal to own. Have License to have concealed pistol on me. Have travelled to matches and hunts with powder burning rifles slung across my back on a motorcycle. Airgun is no...

If you don't want to commit to PCP, look up a Weirach HW30/ Beemen R7. It is a breakbarrel that is easy to cock and short enough for youths to handle. Will be around $300. Has globe front sight from factory with V notch rear. A daisy rear aperture can be mounted on the scope dovetail, that...

These are shooters, I don't know of any that would be exceptionally rare or collectible. Like said before, springs and seals are wear items. They should be replaced, and a good basic tune while you are in there should be desirable.

I have bought refurbs from them and all have been as new.

Don't worry about leaving a springer cocked, it will be fine. The good German and English rifles are all rebuildable anyway. Most of the nitro piston guns are lower quality that you will not be happy with as a competition shooter. Go to some shoots first to see that they are actually...
