What Airgun supplies do you keep on hand?
- Thread starter Dan B
- Start date
I keep metric and US thread wrenches, at least two for every size I use. A hand pump for backup. Lithium grease, REM oil, cleaning patches, lots of pellets and BB’s, co2 cartridges, good quality gun cases, extra scope mounts and rings, a couple red/green dot sights, batteries, weed eater string, magazines for each gun, a couple of range bags, a good quality folding knife. No wonder it’s so hard to stand up straight.

I guess i didnt ask the question that would dictate scope. Will you be chasing the power dragon? Do you intend to shoot 100 rounds or more per week? Do you try to condition your air?
Lots of wet air can cause some corrosion and leaks, high pressure for high power when combined with heat can cause leaks via extruded orings.
Silicone lube, felt cleaning pellets and crc leak detector have been my favorites in the airgun kit. How deep down the rabbit hole do you want to go? Im skipping lathe tools and the esoteric smithing stuff because my definition involves being able to make replacement parts
I don't claim my way to be the right or only way, but it's a way.

They can. If you shoot powder burners or have many rifles a coated cleaning rod or carbon fiber cleaning rod is handy. The delrin wouldn't break in your gun, it would break and then leave you high and dry potentially when you needed it. Especially when you drop it in the cold, loading up your mini lathe....not that I have baggage about that or anything.
