So what did you Order / Receive today ? (to feed the "Beast" that lives within)

Yeah, I know I will have to convert mps to fps and that is not a big deal. 

I printed this to fit sized to fit the top when folded and put clear tape on both sides and taped it to the top of the meter for quick reference. If it is breezy I have to set a small weight on it to keep it from flopping around and getting in the way though.

Found a guy selling these on Craigslist. Just met him at his work to pick them up. Said he found the scope level and said I could have it. He said he’s into fishing now and doesn’t have any Airguns anymore. Nice deal for...$10!  Sweet!

Got 4 tins of JSB's coming for the Hatsan Nova.

The Beretta has a hold down slot for the follower which is nice. My MP40 is different where it will lock down but not far enough to load BB's. You have to pull it down about 1/4" further with your fingernail and that gets old real quick when loading 50 BB's. I made a small tool to hold the follower the rest of the way and now the mags are a snap to load.

Yep, I'm looking to innovate something to help me load the BB mag.  Otherwise, I'm going to waste them very quickly!

Forgive me for being a little late with this, been busy with work. Out of the blue, a member here graced me with a second variant Crosman Auto Air ll pistol and some umarex magazines for my pistols. No charge, just finding home where they could be loved. Thank you Old Bill for the gifts.

Congrats on a great gift!

It's good to hear about such a wonderful act of kindness. Hope it shoots well.

Enjoy,

Sort of new here and not long into airguns.  Have had a Weihrauch HW95 for several months.  Found that it damages my left elbow to cock more that 30 or so times at one session.  To remain on topic, I just ordered a Crosman 2300KT w/Lothar Walther barrel from the Crosman Custom Shop.  Would like some feedback on the gun and advice which area of forum to go to for this feedback.

Ordered a 2 cavity .22 magnum pellet mold from NOE.

Go to the Darkside Gate for all things CO2 and PCP related. Welcome to the madness

Beretta M9A3 select fire BB pistol, 6000 Hornady Black Diamond BB's. Should be fun.

as per some reviews I read my M9A3 also shot 1.5" left and 3.5" low...very disappointing

the windage can be adjusted with the front sight

I'm not gonna hold 3.5" over to hit where I want the BB to go

drilled/tapped 2 holes in the outer barrel and modified the threaded barrel adapter to allow pushing up the inner barrel to make windage and elevation adjustments...screws are not visible when slide is closed





there is plenty of room for adjustment

I got the seal kit for the Crosman model 99 in from Baker air guns yesterday. Not much there for near 50 bucks, but needed.

Several options are possible: (1) get the gun tuned down (send it to a tuner and ask them to downsize the spring or replace the spring), (2) sell the HW95 and replace it with CO2, PCP, or lower cocking pressure air rifle like a HW30 or HW35E or _______ (check out specifications at Pyramyd Air), or (3) keep the HW95 but purchase a HW30/R7 for all your training, plinking, and practicing. The HW95 is a superb, powerful platform out to 75+ yards. If you need consistently longer range air rifles, then by all means buy into PCPs. If your needs for range are less than 30 yards, you could also use a stout CO2 air rifle (or even select pistols). Tuning will set you back for the kit, the labor (free if you can do it), and the shipping both directions (my guess, about $160-220). With that much, you could easily justify either a HW30 or a great CO2 shooter.

Best of luck on getting this resolved.

Early Birthday/late Father's Day present!  Got a Crosman Triple Threat!  That Dirty Harry barrel is actually pretty accurate at 10-15 yards!

Thanks Kris!  I had a Vigilante, or a variant there of, years ago and it went missing during one of the many Military moves during my career. I finally replaced it with this one. Nothing like getting 3 in 1! 

[Arch_E]

Uh, triple...congrats!

 

Have fun! BTW, does the barrel length make an impact on accuracy?

I have the bug again... but got the smack down from SWMBO.
Can not buy another until I sell some.
Apparently she looked at all the gun cases under the bed and in the closet that hold the guns that wont fit in the safe.

I received this gun yesterday and all I can say is WOW!!!!!!!!!!!

It's immaculate !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  The poppet I'd say is the only attention that it needs right now but I'm in no big hurry at the moment, it's nicer than what I'd ever think that a gun of this age could be
