Thanks Tony. Your o-ring kit would fix that right? And yes it’s coming out the tophat.

I just googled the valve seal. That’s a bit different than the o-ring kit. Where’s the best place to get that? AF

I do like those Hawkes. Thanks

Be careful of putting a lot of power on top of your SS. It depends on what kind of shooting you are going to do, but if you are walking around in the woods hunting, you will likely want to dial it way down and if the top is way up there, you are usually limited in how far down you can go. I have a Sun Optics 8-32 x 56…Read more

Got it. I don’t call that the sear. I’ve heard it called the striker latch. Whatever you call it I think that oval has to be there.

The pinhole is round on all my sears. That gap/cut just makes it look weird. I just figured it was where they cut parts in one continuous motion. Maybe a high pressure water cutter to do the little parts ❓

Yes it does rock into postion. The hammer release drops down and back at least 1mm. This movement represents the redistribution of wt from the safety slide (block) to full sear support.

Thanks tagdagger.

Looks like one ultra dangerous way to make a “safety”… 😯

I think my setup could reveal more if I could get the springs shown and under tension, but it sure appears to work that…Read more

Clear as mud. 😀

Or are they equally important?

A crappy shooter can make a mess of an accurate rifle, they can also improve their groups through the increased accuracy of the better rifle.

But the best shooter in the world can’t make a inconsistent rifle shoot better through technique…Read more

I found that out. 😆 😆

I’ll get back to work on everything soon. I’d like to hunt with it this last month of squirrel season.

Well I took it apart again to change some parts. I pretty sure had I left it alone The gun would be working fine, but I took the safety out to see how that would work.

I hope to have a set of brass punches in by this weekend to do the job. Want to make sure the retaining pin looks factory new after I tap it back in.

I’m a little curious, did you drill holes in the plate to access the sear adjustment screws or do you remove the plate, adjust ,…Read more

the hammers engagement with the sear made an already superb(for AF) trigger that much better.

Alright moneyshot. For the rekord I’m not ignoring you just thanking syn for the help. To be honest I need it. Third stage blew me away. So tell me what you did to get that glass rod break. :18:

The trigger pull consists of three stages:

1. takeup or pretravel; which is the movement of the trigger which happens before the sear moves
2. break; the movement during which the trigger moves the sear to the point of release
3. overtravel; which is the distance a trigger moves after…Read more

Both stages act on and move the sear… Or am I missing something?

I thought the 1st stage moved the sear to the edge of breaking, and the 2nd stage pushed it over the edge. I know of no other way to get the short crisp break instead of creep.

Anyway to get a photo with the middle sear engaged in the hammer sear and the “super” sear in it’s prefire position?

I had to take your image and flip it to get a good idea of what was happening, for some reason when it’s upside down I have…Read more

There are a number of things that are needed to get the proper velocity out of the rifle for firing the arrows. Many folks use heavier hammer springs with the stock hammer or heavier hammers for simply shooting pellets.

But…Read more

Seems to me like the wallowed out hole in the latch or sear as in this diagram allows enough movement of everything to fire when conditions are wrong/right. So what your saying is tagdagger has a stronger hammer spring in his AirArcher kit and that’s part of that problem?

Shouldn’t it be here, Steve? 😕

Always thought form followed function. It fits fine unlike the slope in my old trigger. Might shim the trigger in the future. Maybe he’ll make you a pretty one if you say please. 😈

Hey it survived USPS to my house and that wrench is a fragile little thing. What counts is it works. DIY is nice, but some people like other things. I like this thing.

The site loads much faster on my PC, but I like the old design better. The reason is the new background is a distraction.

That’s my personal opinion about the new site, but it…Read more
