Thank You.

Looking great! Interested in the scope your using. Please give us a little information on this scope.

Like I said above I prefer my HW30 to my other springers, but I agree with @Hoppalong Doc and @Danman that if I were thinking about a HW95 today I would go with the HW97 over the HW95. I would also take a hard look at the HW98 versus the HW95.

Sent you a PM

My first adult airgun was a Beeman R9 (HW95) in .20 back in 2001. Love it but it was/is a little heavy so I bought a R7 (HW30) in .20.. About 2010 I bought a HW 50 in .177. Of the 3, the R7 (HW30) has been my go to springer. Actually, I haven't shot the R9 (HW95) in years.

If @Franklink has a new (after ~ jul/aug 2024) Condor SS he has the new AF trigger guard that accepts the AR style grip. Here is a link that shows the differences: https://www.airgunnation.com/threads/airforce-new-ar-grip-trigger-guard.1282172/

You might want to think about a dovetail to dovetail riser. I have a Talon SS and have a riser added to it. I didn't add it for the rise but to stiffen the upper part of the chassis. There were quite a few posts years ago that said a riser helped stiffen the condor/talon chassis so I added...

I found this site that shows how to install and maintain the filter along with other GX maintenance videos. It doesn't answer your question but does give you a look at the filter. Jason S

I found this site when looking for GX compressor maintenance information. It may be of interest to some folks. https://www.youtube.com/@sjason3205/videos

UPS just delivered my Alias Gem in red today. We are in the middle of a Spring rain/snow storm so I can't do any testing and won't for awhile because of an on going family issue. Initial un-boxing impressions are good with the exception of the barrel latching. The barrel pivots at the muzzle...

I emailed Alias 2 days ago and they said they are working on a rifled .177 barrel that should be available in the Fall.

I bought a Notos because of all of the hype and great price delivered to my door. I only smoothed out the trigger, no upgrades other than CARM magazines. I also have a Brocock Atomic that costs way more dollars. I understand why a person would modify the Notos if he/she was on a tight budget...

I also have a GK1 .22 shooting GTOs at ~690fps. Also had Kelly setup the trigger when I ordered it. Best PCP pistol I have owed. Also makes a great pistol/carbine when modified with a stock. Looking forward to your impressions of the .25.

An interesting ability of the Nate chrony is you can verify if it is working with your cell phone/tablet/laptop by providing power and dropping a pellet through the chrony and you will get a reading of about 5fps if it is working. No need to mount it on an airgun to verify your chrony/computer...
