Kidding aside that .40 cal would make a mess on my wooden perimeter fence?

cheers

I have a new stem and top hat coming from AF, as a back up. I want to salvage the originals if possible. The AF gal said…Read more

You too knife.

The first half inch or so, no problem. The last bit took lots of force but was almost near bending the stem and jammed solid. I tried using the screw drivers stack on wrenches to get height and leverage but no dice. Should I just keep trying to pry out in a straight…Read more

I cranked the power wheel up to nine from normal 4 at 2.5k. Gun sounds a bit quieter but will have to wait till I…Read more

Oh well, 20 shots now and still leaks so will call AF after the holidays.

Near .25, look at Pandemic’s post. Mine were the off the shelf 1″ x.25 SS washers from Lowes. Yes, you have to check for any sort of clipping but nothing so far. I’m getting more copper unions to experiment with additional larger chambers vs smaller.…Read more

Well, from one to another, welcome! RTFM if your new and read the forums when ya got time. How are you filling and choice of pellets will cross your path. My SS hates the Discovery pellets bought for my Benjamin but likes the JSB Jumbo Exacts and Beeman FTS so experiment when you…Read more

Those are for the 380 mod :biggrinn:

original text explains it…

Dont waste $60 on $6 worth of parts.

We have information on how to make that from stuff at Home Depot in the Quick reference section.

Sorry to drag up the old post but now, a year later, found that $60!!!!! mod. I’m still…Read more

This! Old post but you were not happy with a $500 gun shooting dime size holes? LOL, now you want an ED gun? LOL, sounds like we are comparing a Corvette against a Lamborghini Diablo?

There are tank adpaters/yokes that makes more “cents”

So, to those that have a bone stock Talon, you are saying that with the METAL ring, you have zero peening? WK is the only voice that…Read more

While screwing the knob back in I saw the simple fix..slaps self on back of head!

I placed two O-rings UNDER the…Read more

You guys using the metal bands, no knurling on the frame? Opps, guess not lurker. yea, metal on metal = knurl?

I should have made my self clear but there never was the plastic tube over the knob post..ever. I would have seen that as my home made one eventually failed and came apart.

WK, glad to hear that…Read more

..and here’s mine.

I called Airforce, when I first noticed the damage. I was hoping that they would say “ Hey send it in, we’ll fix it no problem” All I got was an offer to send me a plastic sleeve that “must have fallen off”. Right…

I found a plastic sleeve of my own; an “O” ring would have to have a grooved knob post to allow clearance o…Read more

Especially straight out of the box. This is the kind of power in a compact package i’ve been looking for. I’m ready to start playing with some more stuff, the correct spring, different hammers, and some heavier pellets.

Whole new meaning in foot pounds (with 12′ barrel)…Read more

In the winter I shoot HP air for the above reasons.

The choices we have with these guns and configs is what made me get one instead of waiting on a Marauder.

A few more chickens will get you a second rifle, good shoot’en Hoot!

As per one member, the 1″x 3/8″ washers is not the ones to use, ” there was no difference”.

The links are for the pricy SS fender washers, I used cheaper steel ones.

Search is your friend 8)

quote jaybirdo:Got this all at Home depot and it took zero effort. I got washers with 0.25″ holes now in lieu of the ones shown.

I had just set up crony when the rains came. Tomorrow I’ll try to run the top hat and crony to see what I get. My top hat came adjusted to around .110″

I find that setting works great on squirrls and keeps my local dive shop compressor happy.

LOL…Yea I would kill him the first day…His regs are good but his
attitude still stinks……

High pressure jobs can do that to ya?

If I get my safety bonus; I’m on the lookout for a 24″, extender, and a regulator..if my wife…Read more

Jeff, your shooting the 24″ barrel correct?

The OP was searching for something to use with his 12″? I don’t think we will see those numbers 😯

As an older shooter in a retirement community, I just prefer CO2 for my shooting. Nice and quiet. I’m going to try either .20 or .22 cal for the critters I plug.

I can’t speak for the 18″ Talon but my 24″ Disco is loud on CO2 shooting 14FPE!

Do you plan on a shroud?

My SS 12″ is quite enough, on HP…Read more

Our AF guns have nice flats available for using my bubble level to level rifle, scope…then using string to check verticals.

I would like a scope with “built in level”, nothing external. 8)

In the field I would hope that I can shoot well enough without extra gee gaws…Read more

Thx Jeff,

Hopefully, we may be able to drop one of these in a standard air tank. Some where, Yellow?, a Swedish guy had one in the works but had pressure drifting problems. Hope he can get it worked out.

Not sure if you have seen my FPS strings with the 2,200psi reg but,
it is slinging 18.1gr really close to 1,050fps with a 24″ barrel…If you
are going to use a 12″ barrel, 2,500psi might be just the trick. It
just seems (and I by…Read more

This is what I was seeing using 15.8 JSB’s at 2500psi. Was I way off base? My thinking is flatter shooting pellets with the 12″barrel. Longer barrels…Read more

First shot was 880 FPS. Next shot was around 870.

Then after those 10-12 shots, the FPS was 860-850. And that was only after 10 shots?

I would think we would have to spend big bucks for a regulated gun if you want 2-4 FPS…Read more

I noticed that so wondered if I could guestimate that way.

I found the Top Hat post in another forum.…Read more

This looked simple and made a huge difference in sound..much quieter.

Thx,

Mike

The 2400 psi is where new gun came in the mail;) I will also do a string at 2K where I plan to re-fill, then another string at 2.8k to see where factory settings shoot.

I have only the new style AF tank fill for SCUBA. This works very well compared to my Disco filler.…Read more

I decided I want the groundhogs dead sooner rather than later, and I don’t have time to wait for the tuning. They’ve built a den under my deck against the side of my house, and tore up the insulation on the outside wall of my basement in the process.

For birds I use Crow-Mags. Like Buzz said you can’t go wrong with Kodiaks. Those suckers hit like a freight train. My all around pellet is the JSBs. It sounds to me like you know what you are doing.
