I can't wait to see that, cool!
Wait, do we have to wait another year for that?

Hi everyone, I am new here but I thought I would post a pic of my two Air Arms springers. On the left is my Air Arms TX200 MK III .177 cal with walnut stock. It has a Hawke Sidewinder 30 4-6 X 50mm scope. On the right is my Air Arms Pro Sport .22 cal with walnut stock. I have a Nikko-Stirling 4-16 X 44mm Targetmaster scope on it. I installed Maccari spring kits in both rifles. I am still learning the fine art of springer air rifle marksmanship but so far I am very happy with both set ups and am having a blast punching paper. Any words of wisdom are welcome!

Sweet set Sam , my ProSport is .177 walnut and my TX is .22 beech still a fine pair

Very nice siblings you have there, Sam.
Nice background, makes them look very serious.

OK, ok...last one I promise. I think, lol. Could not resist posting the "final look" for my stock TX...seriously considering those fine stocks that gent posted of his FT TX200 HC by that Ginb guy. Wow those are nice but I fear very pricey. Anyway I added the cocking assist handle, awesome at protecting the bluing on the handle, and the sun shade with some flip up covers. She is just so large and in charge now. That is the sight in sheet when I installed the new Hawke last week at 50 yards. Yeah I know I should be sighting in a bit closer to 39 yards according to Chairgun but I just dont find shooting the TX much of a challenge inside 50 yards. Got a couple of sub-one inch groups that day. Good stuff...last pics until I get a new stock or something major, hehe.

Very cool Dave.

I just noticed something; my TX scope mount looks very small and deficient with that shade on. I honestly think it looks way out of place for some reason now. What the heck? Ok, really will I two piece mount do anything for stability with the further spread between the attach points? Or does it just look cooler with these larger scope?

Not sure...

Nikoman · « **Reply #171 on:** September 18, 2013, 02:44:26 AM »

Single piece mounts are more stable.
I use SportsMatch mounts, the rings are farther apart making the mount look larger.
With these rifles it doesn't really matter, single or two piece will do the trick - it depends on its owner's eye. I'm picky because I won't do two piece mounts on my Air Arms rifles.

Look at my sig below, those are the mounts I'm talking about.

NIKO

Your holding out on us Brother

I've seen it, held it & taken it apart ..... ya Dawg

Nikoman · « **Reply #173 on:** September 20, 2013, 09:07:04 PM »

OK, OK!

Here she is!

Nikoman · « **Reply #174 on:** September 20, 2013, 09:10:07 PM »

Almost forgot....
Here's her first 5 shots ever.
20yds away as I sat on a bucket and was wobbling off a pair of shooting sticks.
I guess she likes FTT's!

Very nice Niko, but I think you should send it to me for the break in period. This way you can save some aggravation. I promise to send it back after 4 tins. Have fun.
Tom

Nikoman · « **Reply #176 on:** September 20, 2013, 09:49:59 PM »

Tom,
I've literally only taken 5 shots with her!

They've been working me to death at work so there hasn't been any time to shoot.
Every time I grab the PS and a tin of pellets, something ALWAYS comes up!

I was about to shoot a couple of hours ago but I had something else come up.
I mean, look at the target posted up there - it's way off since I haven't even zeroed the scope yet but that group says it all.
I might have to send this gal to someone for a proper break in!

Now I'm waiting for your Pro Sport to show up on this page, Tom.

This addiction won't let you off easy

Motorhead · « **Reply #177 on:** September 20, 2013, 09:50:39 PM »

Ah, the motivation of getting you to come out and share the new addition

Navaho6 · « **Reply #178 on:** September 21, 2013, 01:42:42 AM »

New MKIII I got today. Added 1-pc BKL mount and Leupold 3x9 EFR.
