I'm glad yours was but mine wasn't. It's sitting in my garage as a paper weight with a junk barrel

N/A Stoeger Bullshark or Air Venturi Avenger Bullpup II ?
- Thread starter Tom T
- Start date
Heard about the issues Stoeger seems to have with their whole XM1 series as a whole, was hoping this would've been solved by the time I was actually looking to purchase a PCP, especially for the higher end versions like the bullshark.

I hear ya… I searched online on the best way to do this but found nothing.
So, here’s what I did:
1. 3-slot aluminum pic rail:
a. filed the bottom M-lok nubs flat.
2. Flush mounting plate on stock (the flat one that comes in the rifle box):
a. filed flat so the pic rail fits flush.
b. drilled 2 small pilot holes.
c. screwed pic rail directly into flush mounting plate.
d. filed the tips of the screws flush on the inside of flush mounting plate.
e. attached flush mounting plate w/ pic rail back onto the stock.
(The flush mounting plate is dense so the screws are very tight and solid)

FWIW, I'm pretty happy with my decision to go with the Avenger…so far, it’s given me zero issues, is stupid accurate with the two different pellets I’ve put through it, great trigger and very smooth action, zero leakage…it’s also a lot quieter than I expected…it could be a little lighter and I’m still working on getting used to the ergonomics vs. a more traditional type gun, but that’s on me…it’s a keeper

Easiest way to put a pic rail on a Bullshark or P35 I saw first mentioned by Ed in Ga. You use a 34mm scope adapter with a little tape in the scope ring to reduce the size slightly for the Bullshark air tube. The adapter is made to put a pic rail on a scope with a 34 mm tube. It works fine but I now have custom wood stocks for my 3 P35s so I just put a pic rail on them. It's a little tricky to get it exactly on the bottom of the gun but it's inexpensive, solid, and works.
I can't paste links with my track pad (low skill, I know) but I found one quickly for $16 on Amazon googling something like "34mm scope picatinny rail".

I'm sorry your gun disappointed you. It does seem like you failed to win the "airgun barrel lottery". Did you ever try some H&N Baracuda Match pellets? If so, I apologize for asking. But if not, I would. My P35-177 is not as accurate as my P35-22 but neither care for any JSB pellet or slug I've tried in them. As I've commented before, I was so disappointed in my P35-25s barrel (for target shooting, it was always fine for pesting) I bought a replacement. But then a retune involving a bigger plenum and a switch in pellets (to JSB 34s) made it significantly better and at least as good as the replacement barrel (which likes H&N Baracudas better).

I had to sand a groove in the top to keep it from touching the shroud. I forgot that part. I have lots of drum sanders so it was not a big deal. You could do the same thing with a file.
