What airgun related did you do today?

Just cleaning house on this dirty old forum...

So far so good.

 Yesterday:

 Dropped an ADE green dot on my Artemis PP700S
 Scoped the Urban with one of the REX bargain gate 3-9AO scopes.
 Mounted another wall rifle rack in my office.
 
 Cleaned up a bunch of airgun parts and pellets storage.

I replaced the zinc screw for the scope stop on a Xisico B25H with a steel screw that I dremeled to the proper length and a steel washer, cleaned with acetone to remove any oils, painted black, and secured with blue Loctite.

It's a barely noticeable change, but it should prevent the screw from being sheared of by the scope mount base due to the rifle's recoil.

Spent a couple hours on the forum reorganization.
Made a wood rack for a set of 9 long SAE Allen wrenches.
Fixed a couple leaky hpa whip extensions for tethering guns.
Topped the 30 and the 60 minute scba tanks up to 3500psi.
Did some much needed clean up of 2 work areas.
Shot the P-Force tactical from the shop shooting window.
That gun impresses me every time.

I degassed the brod and took off the aluminum bottle. I drilled a hole in the cap that came with one of them and ran a piece of Paracord with a nice big knot in it with a big cleaning q-tip shoved in behind it. Now I have a nice way to hang the bottle for me to paint it silver and clear coat it too, hopefully making this rifle look even better.

I installed a modified TKO moderator on my Crosman 2200.  It’s certainly quieter but there is a POI issue.  I’ll adjust the grub screws and hopefully cure that tomorrow.

 While topping off my 90ci bottle with my Tuxing 42, I heard air leaking when it hit 4000 psi    I shut it down  unhooked the bottle, did a quick deadhead test to find the over pressure valve in the filter tower has stripped or more like out of speck threads and vibrates loose, first time that happened it blew the fitting across the basement. I think Heli coil, or new filter block time, good thing I got that free GX 4 compressor when I bought the Serpent shotgun

Thought about shooting but it was raining so I didn’t

[Mike71]

Swapping scopes and red dots around like if I didn't have it all sighted in..

[avator]

Gonna be an all day rain event today... I think I'll shut myself in the casting shack. 

[Blowpipe Sam]

Well I need to replace the pump cup on a 1400 and the low power issue with the 2200 is still not resolved.  I need to modify a 2240 steel breech to fit the 3622.  I can play “musical scopes” or “musical suppressors” all day if I want to.  The weather frog says rain is likely all day but it hasn’t arrived yet.  Now that my drill, press is set up in an accessible spot I want to practice drilling and tapping an air rifle barrel for scope mounts. 
So far today I’ve cleared the bench top, assembled all the necessary tools, and started disassembling the 2200.  No obvious sign of what’s wrong yet but I’m going to replace the TP seal and the probe O-ring when I get there.

Rain has set in here now.. got my 362 and 2289 sighted in, started on an H&R 22lr sighting in and the rain hit.

I just killed a Vortex Venom and am working out making my whale fin a fiber optic front to go with the WGS ghost rear on my pp800r,,,,

[Mikelo123]

Boxed up a RAW HM1000x and sent it off to Allen Z for a FX barrel liner and full shroud and a good once over…

[bReTt]

Assembled some (6) target stands

[Zsigmund]

 Spent 20 mins fighting the CO2 cap off my new AR2708B. This thing is dryyyyyyy. Test target read 2018 it's probably been in some dank shipping container since then. 

 Looked around the webs a while for seals and parts for it. It shoots well and provides plenty of shots, but doesn't hold pressure overnight. Might as well do it up.


 Cheers,

Supposed to warm back up to around 70 today. Might visit with some C02 guns. The AR2078b will be on the short list.

We wrapped up the bore early today quicker than the boss thought so I took the afternoon off. I cleaned the aluminum bottle with some mineral spirits then gave it three coats of the silver paint waiting twenty minutes between coats. Then Im pretty sure I messed up the whole paint job spaying the clear coat on too thick. I have it hung up on a rack now up at eye level. And a small heater on the floor. Worse case scenario is I strip it and start over. I'll post pics once I'm happy and it's on the gun.
