What'cha doing air gun related today?

[RatSmacker]

I just found out that the Crosman Vapor Max and the Gamo Arrow PCP .177 use the same magazine, I hope this helps anyone who needs another or wants to have more mags for an extended shooting session!

 

[Dogowski]

Never. Cutting, plinking, chasing, all fun in the sun with a can.

It's a smile maker for sure!

I took my Little Lost Sheep (FWB124 Sport) to the range today and shot some JSB Exact 8.44s, Norma Golden Trophy 8.4s, and Air Arms Diabolo Field 8.4
I had the range to myself and it seems to like the Norma's.

Those can be the best days. Only person against yourself.

Recieved my HW50S today!
From Mellrichstadt, Germany to British Columbia Canada, and then from B.C. to Ontario by truck....many thousands of miles she traveled to get to me, box was a bit roughed up, but the HW looks unscathed. What a sweet sweet little gun, minimal recoil, lighter than I thought, easy to load & shoot. Shot off 3 pellets, oggled it alot, took some pics and went back to work in my shop. Was too tired to pull some patches or do anything else with it.
Hopefully I'll go over it good, clean it (notice all that grease!), pull some patches, and get to shooting it by the weekend!

As my house renovation winds down, I am contemplating purchasing either a .177 HW100 or a KalibrGun Cricket Carbine.

While I am leaning toward the KalibrGun, finding a .177 caliber model in the U.S., or a vendor willing to ship one here, has proven difficult. Georgia Airguns currently lists a .25 caliber version on its website, and I plan to contact them directly about a .177 caliber model.

Anyone know if there are any other US vendors I can check with for availability?

 

[RatSmacker]

Can anyone that is familiar with the Weihrauch HW 100family of PCP's tell me how easy or difficult It is to Re-Seal the rifle when O-Ring maintenance becomes necessary? I was told It Is complicated and not for the faint of heart?

 

[Madhatter]

I should be receiving my hatsan 125 combo to day. If I do I'll be sending a few pellets down range then cleaning the bore and checking it to make sure it's all correct. I'll do the push a pellet down the bore to check for consistency of the bore. Don't want one of those tight at the breach and lose until the choke.

 

[Jaabaa]

Mine was too. You'll love it I'm sure.
I see Krale sold out of the HW50

 

[pan60]

a KalibrGun Cricket Carbine.

I would love one.

 

[Jaabaa]

Just a Note, The HW30s I received from Krale almost 3 years ago was filthy also. But I have not rebuilt it yet and it has no less than 14,000 rounds.
I used to keep the tins in a marked paper bag till the old lady made me get rid of the. Now I'm loosing count sad

Old tins sound like new targets to me...

Lol I've been wondering what to do with my empty tins as well....just cant seem to throw em out. Maybe keep the lids only and turn the base into targets as PapaT mentioned? Or....Maybe JSB/H&N will offer half price refills?

I've been eyeing them suspiciously as possible refillable tea light candle holders.

 

[Madhatter]

Hoping to be able to clean the bore and check for loose spots in the bore. If it proves to be a good barrel I'll polish it then if the wind dies down I'll zero it.

I use the empty pellet containers to hold my Home Made Fire Starters. I melt Vaseline and put dried wood shavings In the empty pellets tins, then add (Pour) the liquified Vaseline Into the tins lined with the wood shavings. after the Vaseline cools Into a paste I use it to start my Lump Charcoal when I BBQ or Smoke a Brisket! It works pretty good.

Half price refills, I love it.

Cleaned the bore of my new hatsan 125 .22 I just got. Shot about 30 shots out of it and it finally stopped smoking at around 15-20. I was getting a wide range of vel in that range. My 3rd shot out of it came in at 33 fpe. It finally settled down at 23 fpe shooting JSB 18 grainers. I figure in another 30 to 50 rounds it will settle down.

I set up a new to me Prod this evening. I’m going a different direction with this one. I’ve had this UTG 2-7x32 handgun scope sitting around for several years and decided to give it a home.
