What'cha doing air gun related today?

[Rwjeter]

Did you cock the rifle? A lot of times when filling from empty you need to cock the rifle because the hammer spring is too heavy and pressing the hammer against the valve stem and keeping it open.

Steady climbing! I think that was the problem! Thanks for the tip!

That’s epic!!!!

Dry fired two times to let the regulator normalize, then topped it off at 3500 PSI. Now I actually have to drag out the computer and work….

I have a Hammers 3-9x40 that has been in occasional use (and more) for about 15 years. Still works fine. It's cheap, has the basics and is tough.

My son had tubes placed in his ears this morning, so no forecast air gunning today.
Also I currently hear thunder.

I did notice my Concept Lite has a decent air leak, so I’ll be opening her up this week.

I had some fun resizing some 38 grain and some 46 grain slugs. It was my first time and I enjoyed doing it. Now if I could have a nice day to try them out.

Man, I’ve got a Texan LSS CF and goodies in my cart and my finger has been hovering since last night. I’ve spent probably $3k in the past month and a half though. I gotta pull back on the reins. But it’s a REALLY good price!!!!

Hmmm...since we're spilling our financial guts I realized I have dumped 7k plus into my air gun addiction/hobby since last April 2023. (Before was almost nil) Ouch....but I truly have no regrets about it! Big bores keep interesting me but I'm sticking with my .22/.177 guns for a good while!

I’ve been out for years. And when I was active in the Airgun world last time around, PCPs were much further out of reach, especially out in the country where dive shops are few and far between and compressors were about $4k.

Then my buddy got his first airgun about 2 months ago and called me. Then down the hole I fell. Lol

My question is how do you fix a $100 gun and resell it at a profit . I have my Slavia 630 that cost me probably $150 20 or so years ago. I dumped another $150 into it recently and to me its well worth It. But I recall the Ham accuracy reviews weren't great on these. Maybe they got this one shooting really good!?

Maybe that Jon at pa guy tuned it .. I notice that alone add 10x value to a used gun in want ads ..

Received my Cometa 220 from Keystone Airguns. Easy to cock, sweet to shoot! Just need to scope it and find out how good I can shoot it!
Now start saving up for when a shipment of accurate 100s comes in.

....indeed...I sent an AP 16 back twice before I learned this, and just discharged the air cylinder I attached because I forgot...

Shooting water jugs @ high speed with the Ghost! Jsb wins H&N for accuracy outta my guns usually, but expansion? Jsb ain't got nothing on em! I sent the hades @ supersonic speeds and still not as good expansion. That brass tip did fall out of the Hornet, I found it back and reinstalled....good as new .

Just put the new DonnyFL on my Airacuda Max.
