Bbs are smaller than the bore. Drop one down the barrel of any bb gun if you don't believe it. High pressure air leaks thru the tiny gap around the bb as it accelerates down the barrel. Aerodynamic forces keep the bb centered in the boar. Worries of protecting rifling are not warranted.

The German made gun is $1500-. Please explain which model has a 500% markup. This "stupid american" isn't a sucker. I love the Chinese.

Ahoy, bb's don't actually touch the bore, hence the bb falling out of the barrel when clearing a jamb. Hi pressure air leaks past the tiny gap around the bb as it accelerates down the barrel. This keeps the bb centered in the bore due to aerodynamic action.

Make sure the water is circulating before running compressor. If it isn't, unplug the return line at the tank and apply a vacuum to remove trapped air. Make sure to always start the compressor with zero air pressure on the gauge (no resistance to starting). Keep the coolant circulating for 5 to...

There is no brand markings on the rifle, that's what made me incorrectly assume it's a Snowpeak. Looks very similar them. Thanks for the excellent work. Cheers

USA corporations are to blame. They moved production and technology to asia in order to increase profits at the expense of our national security and the American workforce.

The Chinese didn't need to steal anything. USA corporations moved production to China and the technology also. No ine to blame but USA capitalism.

A moral compass like the USA ? Only if hypocrisy is considered a moral. USA corporations moved production overseas and the tech also, can't blame China.

Retro grouch. You only shoot yourself in the foot.

Hi folks, I just bought a Pinty Vangaurd in 177. Great little rifle. Incredible value for what appears to be a Snowpeak made rifle. Just noticed, the pressure gauge glows in the dark if charged up by shining a flashlight into it for a couple minutes. Nice touch since I like night shooting (being...

Check out this sleeper of an airgun video. I'm loading up my grease gun now and headed shootin !

Mine sat for 6 months and started right up. Make sure the water is circulating before starting the pump. If it isn't, pull the return hose and apply some vacume to suck the air out. These are very quiet which is a requirement where I live. Only problem is an occasional burst disc. I hear these...

There is complaint about the trigger pull weight. Mine has a heavy smooth pull thru 95% of it's movement, then a positive consistent break point is reached. A little more pressure and it breaks cleanly with minimal over travel. Aim, pull to break point, steady aim, shoot. Attempting to shoot it...

Precisely Old Boy

I've and Air Venturi target trap, balistic putty with steel plate. Around 20' away from my recliner. Low power .177 with alloy pellets. The low power guns will not penetrate 1/2 inch drywall, don't ask how I know.
