I wish I could take a picture of the hole where the threads where it looks like it what drill out completely, no signs of treads in the hole at all.
Is the bottom part with the dove tail groove also…Read more

I was thinking of getting a longer screw and a nut, a Steel screw into aluminum in my past experience never ends well.

How ever now I have a bigger issue to deal with… The whole reason I took it apart was to clean the barrel because the gun didn’t want to hold zero. I tried 2 scopes, did a 65 shot string through the chronograph, the chronograph result we excellent so I thought for sure it was the barrel just being dirty…

Then…Read more

I also lined the inside of the stock with felt, but it still has some wobble. A shorter screw didn’t work either I had some metric screws that was on an old Bow site tried those and still the same result. If I had to place a bet, it almost seems…Read more

At 50 yard it out performs my .22lr target rifle. I have had a chance to get her out to 100 yards yet, but I am sure it will exceed my expectations. Had 2 raccoon making a mess in my garbage, they too…Read more

High, Med, Low
Brand? Cost? etc.

I see a lot of posts on the scopes people use but the rings are not always mentioned. I am also a firm believer that crappy rings can ruin a good scope, or at least you confidence in it. I have been bad in the past and bought a nice scope and crappy…Read more

The tank I was looking at got about 30 refills off it, but still 2 hr drive to fill would get old in a hurry. Contacted all the local fire stations and they wouldn’t fill the tank, (insurance…Read more

I was going more along the lines of local paintball stores or Scuba stores. Most of the paintball stores I visited only seem to fill CO2 and the one store that did have a compressor has gone under.

By the sounds I would have a hell of a…Read more
