What pistol did you shoot today

[cjtamu]

Thanks for the link. He does beautiful work for a reasonable price. Going to see about having a set like this made for my 2300S come payday-

The two things I don't like about the 2300S are the trigger and the plastic grips. Well, my trigger work has paid off. Got it down to a crisp 2.5 lbs using the stock parts and a replacement sear spring I fabricated. Had fun banging silhouette targets at 30 yards with it.

And the new Airbug is quite a shooter. Heck of a gun for under $150.

Yep. Some polishing and a little moly go a long way on that trigger. I need to check weight on mine but I’d guess it’s under 2 lb. I compress the snot out of the stock spring in a vise. You’ll like the Corcoran target grips. Be sure to measure and get the right size. Will put your trigger finger in the right spot every time.

Dialed this back into pistol format. Can't see myself hunting with it anytime soon, and I really prefer having a red dot on it. Was in carbine config. Does 48fpe in the 9" barrel. (25 cal)

Where did you get the adjustable cheekpiece and buttpad?

Hope this works. I had to use shippn to get it over in the states. You cannot ship an entire stock FYI.

Shot my Crosman 2300S and my 2300T today. Too hot to shoot for very long. Charles

This weekend has been in the name of pistol shooting, and solely pcp. Very satisfied with the Rohm Twinmaster modification. Almost a “colt-design”.

My current, all time favourite pistol - the S&W 78G.
Shot this at 10m, standing, single arm hold. (Wish I could shoot it like this all the time).
This is just so solid in the hand, the only hollow areas are where the gas and the lead need to go...

Some real wood grips would be nice...

Shooting the Diana "LEGO" pistol with the stock attached today. Mounted an RWS 4x32 compact scope with BKL high rings, and the rotary mag fits with room to spare.

Even with the attachments, it's still light as a feather. Never shot the pistol with a scope and stock, should be fun.

LEGO!

LEGO!

Yeah, you can cobble together all sorts of odd combinations with the parts interchangeability between the various Diana guns based on this action. The LEGO gun! One of the funnier looking combinations is the Chaser rifle barrel and moderator on the Airbug pistol. LOL-



Anyway, got the chaser sighted in on paper at 25yds, and I used up the rest of the C02 cartridge shooting at my Gamo pellet trap, the kind with the 5 steel paddle targets at 25 then 40yds. Hit far more than I missed before it started raining sideways. The chaser is really a great shooter. So lightweight and quiet with the moderator. I've heard of people having problems with the rotary mags, but mine work fine with 7.5gr Gamo Match and 8.2gr Meisterkugeln. The trigger is easy to adjust too, and darn nice once set. The stock looks awkward, but it's actually quite comfortable and solid. The Chaser kit was money well spent.

That reminds me of something...

Nice triple there, liking that Ted Williams a LOT!

Had a bit of fun with my 1964 Crosman 38C

 

[scopecreep...]

I've had this one for 42 years. It's been a couple since I have shot it. Remedied that this evening, still shoots dimes at 10m. It says Hurricane because that was the only replacement part Beemans had in stock. That was my last conversation with Mrs. Beeman. She cautioned me on the roll pin, hence the Audioquest aluminum cartridge screws.

What calibre is it?
I had one in 0.22, and a Hurricane, could not shoot either of them well, but I now have an all steel Premier in 0.177 that hits what I point it at.

Did you have to replace the plastic housing because it cracked? Mine cracked lengthwise with a split 1/2" long just under the roll pin. Fixed it with some Tamiya brand extra thin cement, which is basically MEK. Hit it with a plastic polishing stick and it looks like new. It's held up through half a tin of pellets so far.

Should I replace the roll pin with a screw to avoid further problems?

HW70 with the new breech seal shooting strong, now I need to sight it in.
