I don't have any experience with the Air Force guns so I can't relate but like I said... it puts me in mind of loading an underlever fixed barrel gun. Only difference is that it don't look like it has the potential to bite your finger off like those "Foo man chew" guns. 

Hi, i was wondering if you could help me with the pinty pcp because the manual is basically useless.i just got the pinty pcp tactical and i tried to remove the rubber pad underneath the barrel to install a foregrip. When i removed it a spring and metal piece popped out. Now i don’t know how to place back into gun. Also would you know the moderator thread size? Thanks in advance 🙏

I remember a discussion a while back about shooting angles with a chronograph. Since then I have strived to shoot as level with the chrony as possible... Both of my stand alone chronographs have been shot,     but fortunately both still work and occationally I will test one against the other to see if they fairly closely agree, and they still do. I also have one of the barrel clamp China chronys but it seems to consistantly show velocities 10-15% higher than my Pro Chrono and my Shooting Chrony F1.

Troy "IS THE MAN"

I put a strip of tape on the housing in the middle of the sensor..... If I want ultimate accuracy, I put a carbon fiber rod in my barrel and aim that over the sensors..

I'm gonna go ahead and run my cast BBT slugs over the chrono this morning.

[splitbeing]

Chrono cast coffee? [chuckling]

[cosmic]

Coffee. cast, chrono ?

 Well I'm avoiding having to drive in nasty weather for the trip home from work, need to finish a Blue Streak rebuild, while awaiting the Pinty Carbine delivery, and after that I do believe I need to take my Tactical P-Force apart and make some changes, or at lest see completely all the workings and polish up that trigger a tad. I find the rifle likes a loser hold, that does not bode well with a heavier trigger.

[avator]

Ran the string with the BBT.
First let me be honest... I sorted these slugs and saved 27.50 - 28.50. I think that is why the fps is all over the place. But I'm going to post this for reference.
When this wind and rain slacks I'm going to sort a batch of these slugs with a much tighter tolerance to test my theory.

That said... the accuracy within my range with this weight spread is quite good so I will continue to use all pellets for normal shooting.

 I am hitting spikes and drops like you too Bill. I am on hold with the Sreak project and now have the sear out, will most likely have my Tactical tore down by tonight back together, if fixes are not too involved. I suspect some sort of hammer drag, I increased hammer spring tension thinking that may help but not so much. Will take pics of my sear, and do follow-ups.
 Where is that FedEx truck lol. 
 Sear Image, looks more like a file than a trigger sear, there is also a parting line like ridge that shows it drags on the hammer. That ridge gets removed with T-Hammer mod.

 . . . and now, I did not take as much off as T-Hammer, but close enough, lightened the pull and definitely smoothed out the pull. I also burnished in some Moly powder.

For guns with the bolt problem:
Here is the reply from Pinty on the bolt misalignment problem. ( Not really a fix )

We have thoroughly analyzed the situation and have identified the cause of the problem. It appears that the misalignment and difficulty in cocking and closing the bolt are due to a slight gap between the component you are pulling and the barrel. To address this issue, we recommend adjusting the way you handle the bolt during operation.

Instead of pulling the handle at the top, we suggest gripping the base of the bolt handle with your fingers while operating it. By pulling the bolt handle at the base rather than the top, you should be able to maintain better alignment and overcome the difficulty you are currently facing.

We believe that this adjustment in your handling technique should help resolve the issue you are encountering with the bolt alignment. Please try this method and let us know if you require any further assistance or if the problem persists.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. Should you have any additional questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to us.

 Or give it the T-Hammer treatment

[avator]

Yep. I just hold my mouth right and it works just fine. Lots of things in my life I could complain about... this one is pretty low on the list.

[Back_Roads]

 Yup if I don't think about it it works just fine.   Squirrel moment as the P-Carbine has arrived.

Seems the clearance problem has finally been addressed,
I recall in some of my posts that clearance has always been addressed as being an issue with Chinese production

Thank Goodness for most part our DIY come up with fixes for these issues

Got bored and pulled the trigger sear out. I polished it up lightly with some die stones just enough to take those ridges out and put a light coat of moly on it. I put it back together and had to take it back apart...  lol, I forgot to put the trigger shoe on it.   
Maybe a bit smoother but no lighter. I'm just gonna shoot it the way it is.

[Back_Roads]

 LOL trigger shoe got you too
