    Break Barrel The "Best"? Weihrauch springer....

    You might try a small amount of a molybdenum grease at all metal to metal friction points. Orv.

    Spring/Piston TX2OO: VORTEK PG4: tomorrow's the day

    The saga over the past six years of my TX200, .22 cal is coming full circle. I received a Vortek PG4 Tune kit in the mail today. Yes, I attempted this installation five years ago, I blew it, the top hat was stuck in the compression tube and I didn't realize it. Adding the one from Vortek...

    Who has redeemed HAM Points?

    I saved about $40.00 dollars earlier this year on the purchase of an Athlon Chronograph from Airguns of Arizona. Nice to save the dollars using some HAM points, but even better was the help of Mr. Archer to guide me through the process and the courteous service provided by the employees at AoA...

    First Look At The Air Venturi Avenge-XL PCP Air Rifle

    I don't know guys, this one may finally tempt towards the proverbial "dark side". Our shooting range already has targets out to a hundred and fifty yards for back when we were allowed to shoot powder burners. We're limited to airguns now days, and that's OK with me as someone called the police...

    Break Barrel New to air rifles - HW30 seal replacement advice???

    You should still use a spring compressor, unless you are very experienced with getting into your rifle. Your spring is under significant pressure and is held in with just one bolt. Orv.

    Beginners Questions How many?

    I've counted 11 in my gun shed. Too many? My wife definitely thinks so. I don't. I try to limit myself to one new gun a year. I plan on cutting my purchases off at a hundred arms. My wife hopes that I won't live long enough. I'm working on it. Every time Weihrauch brings out a special...

    Others Athlon Chronograph Lighting

    The battery seems to hold until it's charge a little better than advertised. I'm learning that should I let the battery completely discharge, I'll lose some settings, such as last string. This last occurred at near 8 hours at 87 degrees. I also found that leaving the chronograph in the hot car...

    Spring/Piston New Gun Day!

    That "twack" may be resolved by a bit of Tune-in-a-Tube from Air Venturi/Pyramyd. Remove the stock and apply the Tune to the spring sparingly. It's the next best thing to a full strip down and a full Tune.

    Others Athlon Chronograph Lighting

    Gaining further experience with my Athlon Rangecraft chronograph, I'm still learning all of it's features. I can now just set it on the bench besides me, turn it on, and I'm good for the day. When shooting various springers, it''s easy to switch between each readout and just shoot. I still have...

    Spring/Piston PLAYING IT SAFE, PLEASE HELP.

    I'll be interested to hear about your experience with the TBT kits. I watch Nick's ytube videos with interest and might consider putting one of his kits into one of my rifles. I guess that I 'm just hooked on shooting and playing with my air rifles. It's the boy in me. Orv.

    Break Barrel What lubricant do you use in your spring gun

    There's always next time. As. a boy I was told that such difficulties build character. I guess that it's true, I'm definitely a character.

    Spring/Piston PLAYING IT SAFE, PLEASE HELP.

    OK, Solo . . . Why? I know that my HW97K is a beast, but I have loved it these last couple of years and it has served me flawlessly. It's a bit strong on the cocking lever, but this old man still loves to shoot it. There's no twang upon shooting, but the the piston slam is a bit strong. So, I'm...

    Spring/Piston PLAYING IT SAFE, PLEASE HELP.

    I can only be glad that my TX200 is shooting smoothly, allowing me to shoot accurately. Tomorrow I think that I'll take my HW97K along with the TX200 and shoot them both. The HW97K is accurate and quiet, although not as smooth as my TX200. After running the HW97K through the chronograph...

    Spring/Piston PLAYING IT SAFE, PLEASE HELP.

    My TX200, with a 11.9 Vortek Tune on it is simply day & night smoother to shoot, and therefore not only quite accurate, but finally so much fun to shoot. Oh . . . It is unbelievably quite too. What more can I say? I don't need or want a springer rifle that shoots at a zillion ft power per nano...

    Spring/Piston The story of Norma Jean, my Blonde TX200

    I always enjoy the color of your escapades. TX200'S can be fickle loves. I just recently finally got my TX200 together after a four year saga to finally find that the forend stock bolt was loose. It's finally giving joy at the range once again. I wish that there was a club to shoot at nearby for...
