Goggle for lots of information. On the Talon I had to grind a new shape for the trigger blade. It curved back toward the front of the gun too much. VonBrink

There has been a lot of post about past wages and prices here, so I’ll pass a few on also. When I was 10 years old I unloaded RR boxcars of concrete blocks and glazed building tile for 50 cents a day. I could go to the Saturday movie matinee for 12 cents and buy most candy…Read more

Didn’t get another for 46 years. Have had over 300 in the last 16 years.

I shoot offhand using a 10 meter hold, so this the most confortable positioning of it for me.

Yea, the little gun in front still has some growing to do.

I can’t thank Kenny enough for his help with this project. It Is an 18″ black anodized tube, with a custom made aluminum end cap. As Kenny noted when he posted a picture of his gun, the tubing is already a perfect match for color. If you have a naked barrel that you would like…Read more

The reason is that the tophat and stem fell out of my new CO2 adapter Sunday after a total of 3 shots. It wouldn’t stay in and I couldn’t figure out what was supposed to hold it in place. Called AF and Rachel said to send it in, as there was supposed to be a piece of plastic of some…Read more

I live in southern Illinois and started air-gunning in 1992 My running list says that I have had over 300 guns in the last 17 years, but at this stage I am trying to get down from the usual 15 to 20 on hand, to about 4 or 5. I have been shooting indoor air gun…Read more

Having just acquired a couple Talon SS’s, I have a need for AirForce gun infomation and this is obviously the best place to get that. Now I can find some answers

What we need is an Illinois resident, who is an airgunner and a lawyer,to challange it.
The influence that Chicago crime has on gun laws for the whole state is considerable, and…Read more

I have a copy of the statute somewhere but it would take a while to find it. Airguns that shoot less than 700fps, or are .177 cal or less do not require a FOID.…Read more
