For general purpose compression style springs it's the diameter or gauge of the wire that determines "strength" there can be a lot to this and it's helpful if forum members share what has worked for them. I chose .22 for my Blitz and am also running a Donny FL Ronin in .30 caliber. No issues to...

Well back from jolly old England and messing about with my airguns. Prior to departure weeks ago I took my P-force carbine apart to lighten the trigger. Who might have a diagram?, mine rather flew apart when disassembled. TIA and good to be back.

Ditto but sub backyard for patio, and raise you a basement. :) Eons ago shortly after working for uncle sugar in the USAF and I could actually afford buying a CO2 pistol. We had a nice long concrete basement in the townhouse we were renting. Pellets proved accurate enough that I learned most of...

By heritage, I am a fisherman. Son of a son of a son. Grandpa and dad fished lake Michigan until industry killed the lake, by the 1960's commercial fishing on lake michigan was done. The lake is back thanks to the Salmon from Big Creek hatchery just about thirty miles from my home. My current...

Another handy item for removing fasteners. A propane torch and a sacrificial L style hex wrench or hex bit. Really stubborn hex screws use the torch to heat the driver, then quickly switch to a cool driver to remove the screw. The heat transfers better thanks to the increase in surface area...

Agreed, I edited my post.

3d printing technology has really grown lately. I'm seeing items 3d printed in Titanium for sale. Amazing weight 2 and a half ounces no Addl. accessories needed. I did not however see the price.

Do bear in mind with these video scopes. "Picture quality" is also the image quality you see through the scope while in use. The monitor in the scope is but a low resolution representation of what the scope can see. I reckon my point is with these devices the photo quality is the image quality.

Your nose is a really useful tool. Most of us have one, built in. When using a soldering iron to heat a screw sealed with Loctite. Just put that tool right above the screw, when you smell a sweet odor, apply torque. 5" hemostats both straight and curved are very useful.

Pinty was highly responsive for my shipping damaged rifle, I was annoyed at first with the pics and video request. Upon sending the required video within a day I had a return label. When they got notification it was in shipping my replacement rifle shipped. It made the trip damage free, I'll dig...

I have the NV 500 and the mags are indeed 2X-26X with the 30mm. I like the range of magnification just fine. More important to me was the adjustable diaphragm in the lens of the 30mm. The "snout" or the mask is not necessary and can get the lighting just so with a twist of the wrist thanks to...

Airguns are still "allowed" on EBay. Powder gun parts are also OK on Ebay. Gunbroker is where I found the best deal on my Blitz. Gunbroker has become a huge venue in recent years, PCP's included. Lots of "Drop Shippers" on all the online venues.

I greatly enjoy the text in the old catalogs. The older the better in that respect. The internet age has not done the English language any favors. Years ago I noticed that Alaska was the worst. Even some of the state highway signs have misspellings. Not uncommon now to see posted notices and...

Please understand, Craigslist can be 100% terrific! It took me close to two months to sell my 40' diesel pusher motorcoach. I advertised online on both Ebay and used RVtrader. RVtrader was the WORST, zero responses. EBay produced lots of tire kickers, and Craigslist produced the over 25 K sale...

Well once my big screen birthday project is done I'll get back to lightening the trigger on my P-force. Not at all surprised to hear the price has gone up. I know the P-force is a steal IMO. Went Sat. to Costco for the new 77" LG OLED, spent Sun taking down the old one and installing new...

It's reasonable to run the serial numbers by the local LE where the guy is selling them. Craigslist is a sales venue for thieves. Ebay demands MUCH more detail from sellers. Still the crooks sell stuff there too. Sadly a great deal for you may have been grief for another. Powder burning guns are...

thammer posted up pics of the sear and perhaps trigger early on in this thread. I was going to use his guidance profiling my parts. Anyone else care to share pics of trigger parts with their mods? Other than the trigger, the new Pinty is darn good IMO, even tho we got off to a bumpy start.

Ahh, aluminium. Always thought it was kinda cool the way the brits pronounce it, makes more sense. Airguns are getting a break today. New TV to put up and it is a task, plus the old one needs a new home in the basement.

Is that a chemical instant blue thammer? Looks great. I just bought a bottle of Brownells Oxpho blue, I have heard good things. Getting mighty costly for good bluing. Environmental regulations in most places make it impossible. I've seen the result of not handling waste bluing properly, very...

The power of airguns is approaching and exceeding powder based guns on a daily basis. When the projectiles are bullets (slugs) and the velocity is similar, the physics are also similar. When firing bullets, be certain of your backstop.
