https://www.gatewaytoairguns.org/GTA/index.php?topic=213845.msg156527851#msg156527851 I don't need to use the 12v option(yet) but the included 110vac>12vdc power supply works fine. 93

I think I want to get the chrono out and see if anything has changed. Here is that thread. https://www.gatewaytoairguns.org/GTA/index.php?topic=177143.0 For those of you not wanting to scroll through 9 pages of that thread, here is where I left the tune. https://www.gatewaytoairguns.org/GTA/index.php?topic=177143.msg156258035#msg156258035 95

Gamo & Spanish AirGun Gate / Re: Some observations regarding Gamo, GRT, Crosman, and Hatsan triggers...« Last post by H95Kidd on Today at 08:28:08 AM »From thread: Mikeyb--- Thanks for breaking these "simple" triggers down and creating this narrative. Your "bad adjustments" comment is especially relative here, since most of us just want a trigger that "breaks" in such a way as to make the rifle "shoot-able". By that I mean a trigger that is safe, with such a pull that one can use and shoot our rifles accurately, especially in the offhand (standing) position. Even a rifle with a terrible trigger pull can be shot somewhat accurately from a SUPPORTED position, if it can be held on target while the pull is executed. NOT easy to do in the offhand position. A "better" trigger pull/break is really required. However, it is VERY easy to get carried away with modifications/adjustments on these triggers in our quest to get these simple triggers to "break" to our satisfaction. Therein lies the problem... How far can you take these triggers to get them where we want them (shoot-able) SAFELY? The only trigger that I know of, that is built from the ground up to do this is the Rekord. Perhaps there are others, but the Rekord is the most commonly known. The simple triggers that we are discussing here just don't compare. Even the installation of the GRT blade, at an approximate cost of $30, is only a half-measure. But at least it can get these triggers shooting much better for us, and may be the best option available to folks that don't have, say, Mikeyb's abilities to do trigger mods. Like Mikey, I am a bit reluctant to spend the $30+ on the GRT, and so I rely on an adjustment regime that works for me. Typically, that entails the "longer screw" type mods, and polishing of key contact areas. The take-away here though, is NOT to get GREEDY with adjustments. Be happy/satisfied with what I would call a moderate, middle of the road, adjustment that is SAFE. I think that is where you need a bit of discipline, because it is always just SO tempting to take it (the adjustments) further. My advice is DON'T!! 97

We put a lean to shed roof on the north side of my shop which gives us targets at various distances out to 45yds. The plan is to get the Avenger out and shoot it today. 99

The roof on the North Range shooting shed is done. Today I'll plan and maybe get the electrical part done. That will most likely include a weather proof outlet and some lighting. |
