What springer did you shoot today?

A different day with pistols. And I mean different. A Beeman P1 starter. View attachment 366616I am the worst with a pistol. Nice gun, easy operation. More practice, much more, needed. Next up HW70.View attachment 366617This is a sweet pistol. Little break barrel.
Up next FWB 65. This is as smooth as it gets. I do no justice for it. Crow

You need an adapter for that 13mm rail. This is where I got mine. By far the best system I found. Bought red dot from them as well. Had it in TX in about a week.

Done deal. Picked up next size up as well and a ZR mount.
Can’t wait to try it later. Busy building ponds. Thanks Crow
 
Shot 130QE open sights at 40 yards, hunting sticks. It destroys the new concrete targets I made. Dosen't surprise me, as I know the number it does on rockchucks. Also shot a mod 85 .25cal

The 130 is a beast. Had mine at the door to shoot today, no time, tomorrow.
That’s wicked shooting. Crow
Tx200 at 50-yards again. The usual and an ARA Factory Class style.

Pistols again. This Webley’s takes 3 pumps. Unfortunately the battery died in the Red Dot. View attachment 366855I shot this Beeman P1View attachment 366856This time with a Red Dot. I’m liking this. Last of the 3 is a Beeman P11 with a 25 Hawke Red DotView attachment 366857Same thing only different. All 3 are .22 cal. The RedDotare a game changer. Crow
Hi Crow,
What adapter are you using for the 13mm dovetail on those Beeman beauties?

I have the HW75 coming this week! Had a hard time deciding on the 75 vs 45. I guess I will have to get both!

Cheers

No adapter. I just went in to AGS. I asked for a Red Dot for my Beeman’s which I bought from them. Got the 20 and 25. They both mounted easily on the P1 and P11 directly. Crow

Here's another project I've been working on. A Springfield/Air Venturi underlever M1A in .22. Not a bad gun for the money, but it was awfully rough and dieseling like a Kenworth. Lots of burrs and sharp edges throughout the entire action. Stock was bone dry and sloppily stained as well. After some extensive polishing, de-burring, and stoning, I've got it shooting fairly well with iron sights. Whittled the trigger pull down to 3.5lbs and I'm getting 3/4" groups with an artillery hold off a sandbag at 30yds with 14gr Meisterkugeln. Cocking effort isn't bad, and the shot cycle has less of a "twang" now.

I also stripped the stock, re-stained it, finished it with Tru-Oil and added sling swivel studs. Now it's time to see how it shoots with optics. Stole the lace-on cheek riser from my real M1A, and the 3x9 Bug Buster from my HW50S. The gun approximates the weight and balance of the real rifle fairly well. And at 9.5lbs without optics, it's a heavy sucker. So, I'm off to the back 40 to see what she'll do.

Does the P1 have 11mm rail or did the mount just open wide enough to fit? Zut, look at link I posted for Crow at top of page. That’s what I’m using. It’s a clamp so no screws digging into your rails.

Shot this last might, temps finally got below 90 degrees. So much fun.

I have a HW75 and am using an Eagle vision 13mm to weaver adapter and a vector optic, works great.

You did a nice restoration job. Crow

I almost had the 45 in .20 cal. Let it go. Nice gun. .177 or .22? Crow
