Awesome information! I have been eyeballing the Sonoran as a potential path forward for longer range shooting/Coyote abatement. If I am unable to get my Ghost to shoot slugs acceptably at the 100-150 yard range.
I just have to pace myself as my wife might have a problem with me purchasing a...
Happy anniversary!
I completely understand that one, we just had our 18th two weeks ago and my wife was like "we haven't done anything for our anniversary the last few years and this is 18 years, let's go to the Grand Canyon" So we rented an RV and took a ~1,900 mile road trip for a week. It...
Really looking forward to seeing your results. I pinged Thammer, and the prices are not bad supposing the barrels shoot accurately. If you get decent results at 100+ yards I am going to have to start working on justifying an upgrade to my wife :D
My Huma rebuild kit arrived (I think on the 02/10/25), which wasn't terrible considering the order went in on 01/21/25. However, I just found this on the AOA site, so I will likely order the next one from them.

I am looking forward to the slug barrels being available, I just need to figure out which caliber I want to use for slugs. Debating if I stick with .22 or jump up to .25 or .30 as I would be setting up to shoot Coyote's in the ~50-120 yard range.
I will let you know how it goes with Huma, I submitted my order for just a rebuild kit on 01/21/25 and checking their site I see that my order is in "internal review"
The shipping is high, I believe they wanted $26+(iirc) for normal tracked shipping, as the kit was ~$6 I opted for the...
I am loving my Ghost, BRK is sending me a replacement valve stem, which is great as I don't want to rely on the original due to the damage to the threads, and yeah, out of the box my Ghost HP was set for ~150 BAR and was sending the JSB Hades 15.89gr about 1080 FPS... I have changed out the...
Hello everyone,
I just resolved this issue with a bunch of help from members over on AGN, it doesn't sound like it is very common but I thought it might be worth sharing what was happening and the solution here incase someone else ever runs across it.
:::::Issue:::::
A few days ago my new...
Update: The replacement Yong Heng has arrived and it works as expected with no sparks (thankfully), it filled the 480cc tank on my Ghost from 150 to 250 BAR in about 3 minutes and the auto shutoff worked (though I have no intention of depending on it).
I am not a fan of any device that shoots sparks when turned on, and I have to agree that there should be some concerns with a device that has electrical issues right out of the box. But as I will need to make some compromises initially, for the time being if the replacement compressor isn't a...
I have a replacement unit ordered and am hoping for much better results. Everything I have read so far indicates that if/when you get a decent unit they run well and do a great job filling guns and tanks. It should make for a decent stepping stone until I can consider something like an Alkin.
I just purchased a Ghose .22 HP, it arrived 12/30/24. I am still trying various pellets, but so far it seems to shoot FX JSB Hades Monster 25.39gr well with the factory spring/tune. (The heavier pellets came in late and I have not been able to shoot very many of them due to my compressor dying)...
I am looking at the Alkin, I suspect that will be the endgame for my setup, but convincing my wife that I NEED to spend another ~$4k right after having spent ~$3k purchasing the gun, pellets, and accessories is going to be a challenge :D But give me a year or two and either the memory of the...
Yeah, it is going back. Unfortunately the seller doesn't offer exchanges, so once the refund makes it back I will be ordering another one and hoping it does better.
Just tried it on a dedicated 20A plug (nothing else on it) and something in the compressor is still blowing sparks when the power is switched on, I will try pulling the cover off again as soon as I am off work and see if maybe there is some evidence of where the short is occurring. I would...
