I’m guessing that as long as not too much air can escape as the pellet is exiting is the secret to a quieter blast.

I hadn’t thought about the need for having to use a IR flashlight to supplement a digital NV. Again, great input and info provided by you folks and much appreciated.

I’ll be interested in the feedback once you’ve gotten out and put it to actual use hunting.

I hadn’t thought about the combination of a flashlight with an image intensifier, good suggestion though. Let the learnin’ continue 🙂

Now I’ll know what I dealing with and know that it is a quality item that can only enhance my Condor, again thanks everyone for your input and thanks for your patience too.

I was thinking that those grub screws needed to be loosened to do that, but it seems I’m wrong on that (big surprise). How do I reduce the gap?

There is no knurling where the grub screws are, the surface is smooth.

I measured from the underside of the TH to the brass valve body…Read more

My first post just showed how little I know about AirForce airguns as this is my first one. My latest post was trying to determine if perhaps the tophat might be a TT one as I don’t have any inserts but the internal throat is threaded. As I said I bought…Read more

In looking at the tophats on the TT website I now realized (much to my embarrassment) that the probe end/hole I was referring to would be inside the tank when installed, is this correct? I…Read more

I like the idea and the setup:)

With that in mind I just wanted to add that RC hobby supply stores also carry 100% silicone based greases and lubes as well.
