Autistic Airgun / Pellet Gun discussion part 3We just like ‘emPrevious >>61549438
I've got a Crossman 400 with a slight leak that I need to fix, but it's pretty cool. I've popped coke cans with it. The bolt action and mag on it are really slick.
i kinda want one ngl
>>61641578Looks nice, I think there’s seal kits on Ebay
how do i maintain a nitro piston pellet rifle? where are you supposed to oil so the seals dont dry out
>>61642045https://www.airgunnation.com/threads/how-to-oil-a-nitro-break-barrel-airgun-question.275617/ Info here. Sorry I only shoot pcps so idk much ab nitro. These guys do though.
>>61641598uhhhhhhhhhhh why the are the sights blocked by the round dingus thingwhat the fuck am i looking at
>>61642045Just replace the seals. Gaskets are 5 cents a pop.
>>61641578vintage crosmans are severely under rated, bought a NOS 180 and was given a JC Higgins brand 180 as well, killed many a coons with them, 600 is great for popping cans and punching paper, headshot a squirrel once and only knocked it out.
>>61642045I’m not very familiar with NP guns, they seem low maintenance though. Maybe check the owners manual, I think they call for a little silicone oil.>>61642901Those are sweet. Semi auto 22 pellet pistol.
Does anyone here know of a good place to sell airguns online? I've got a Verminator Mk2, 25 cal that I'm looking to offload. It's only been fired a handful of times and has been sitting in storage just collecting dust, where I'm sure someone might get some use out of it.
>>61643889nigga have you ever heard of ebay?
>>61643889Ebay, gunbroker, forum classifieds
>>61644118>>61644131i was 100% under the impression that ebay had a problem with air guns. Thank you and my apologies!
>>61643889Despite no licensing required, I sometimes think airguns are harder to sell than actual firearms. (Fortunately I haven’t had to sell any of mine)
They just keep coming. Had these fuckers in my attic last summer. Happy dog.
>>61644377That’s because you’re probably feeding them
>>61644377None spotted today.
>>61644349I sold guns on guns.com a couple times and it was as easy as selling basically anything else. I remember running into issues trying to list my airgun in the past or simply finding buyers for it, but I'm through it now thanks to /k/ shoving me.
>>61644377Fuck you
>>61644472 Wrong faggot, almost every tree around here is a pecan tree. You don't have to feed them.>>61644861OK>>61644516Too many spotted today.
>>61644951What state are you in? I want to look up the regs
>>61644963NTA Fuck your datamining
>>61642486the round dingus gubbinz (official term) is the magazine (its offset so it dont block the sights)
>>61645213>NTA What is that done Reddit shit? You’re a fucking nigger poacher shitting up the damn thread
>>61644963 blessed texas you treenigger sympathizer. I'm a lawful citizen. Our season on squirrel is sep 1 - Aug 31. Aside from squirrels, i also shoot collards. collards are non protected, invasive species. "There is no closed season or bag limit restriction for Eurasian collared-doves, an invasive species, or rock doves, also known as rock pigeons". No poaching here, warden. smd.
>>61645364Well I’ll be damned
>>61645387 I will also add you can legally shoot house sparrows and starlings but bc they offer no food for me or the dogs I just don't. I would never poach a protected animal. Truthfully, Pp700 nigger
Guess I should move to Texas
>>61645364i feel like most places the common pigeon is not protected and thats goodsquab is the shit and its free
>>61645486 I agree brother. My family and i enjoy the collards. can't get my sons or wife to eat squirrel yet but I think it's decent fried. Some people think negatively about eating pigeon but to me it's really not a far cry from being thought of as "free chicken." >>61645480 Cheap cost of living and one of the few states without cucked hunting and gun laws.
>>61645940>Some people think negatively about eating pigeonwell, they are thinking of the ones they see in major city parks eating what the tourists throw out. Not where I m here they are pests eating seeds and livestock feed
>>61644118>https://www.airgunnation.com/threads/how-to-oil-a-nitro-break-barrel-airgun-question.275617/ebay is anti gun and will delete your ad beacuse it doesnt have a permanent orange tip on the toy gun
>>61646244There are quite a few used air guns and new airguns listed right now on there. Seems to not be a big deal for most US sellers but I've seen/heard of folks over seas having problems.
>>61646510all i know is i tried to sell an airsoft gun there once and they pulled my listing 3 times because of the no orange tip before i gave up
>>61646510i figure its cause most countries are turbo gay and even airguns have faggy restrictions
>>61647526USA?
>>61641541Do semiauto air pews tend to have more problems down the road than regular repeaters? Like do they leak air more often? I've heard many times people on YouTube being against using airguns in general for self defense. But what if I do decide to keep it by the door just in case?
Tested my stock 1322 pistol today and got 446 fps with CPHPs, not bad
>>61648421do you HAVE to use an airgun for self defense? i see no other reason other than not being allowed anything else
>>61648421 They tend to be less tunable and some models don't like to cycle heavier pellets. Why not just use a gun for self defense?
>>61648421if you use an airgun for self defense you're just gonna piss them off and get it shoved up your ass after they beat and rob you>assuming it's not one of those fuckoff .45 cals that have .22lr pistol energy, then they might bleed a bit on you and give you aids
>>61648421Please dont use an airgun for SD. If youve spent the money on getting an airgun that would do passably for the job youll have already spend waaaaay more than just getting a gun with whatever bs licensing youre probably wanting to avoid. Id legitimately and unironically rather use a slingshot than an airgun but considering the close proximity youll be dealing with just use a bat, slungshot, blackjack, monkey fist, etc.
>>61650599I think 22lr energy even from a pistol is enough for self defense. I know some have da different option but whatever.
>>61648421If you MUST use a air gun why not do a lolfullauto hatsan blitz mag dump
>>61641541I'm trying to fix a tiny air leak, takes weeks to empty the tank but I'm going to do a full service and replace the o-rings. Thankfully this thing is relatively easy to take apart for a pcp rifle.
I use airguns for SD only. My FAL is for range days only, ain’t wasting pricey ammo for no weak ass burglar.
>>61652160Looks cool. Probably expensive.
I’m gonna tinker on some airguns this wkd
>>61652160 About how much fpe this thing shootin?
Umarex made a new nitrogen gun. Not bad reviews so far.
>>61655796780 or so, the UK legal limit. I shoot HFT with it and the power is restricted in the rules.
>>61655984Does it require you to constantly buy replacement nitrogen cartridges?
>>61658049Yes, not sure if they are refillable. But it gets like 50 shots from each. If someone makes a 25 cal nitrogun I might think about getting it.
>>61656312780 fps is the UK limit? >>61658201Have never seen these before, cool
>>61658999Yes they got decent power, 25 fpe in .22. cool thing is you don't need any pumps.
>>61655984Interesting but why? The nitrogen cartridge costs $11.50 each whereas a CO2 powerlet is only 50 cents
>>61659659More power. That thing holds 3600 psi.
Just got a 1322. Really fun and simple gun, I like it a lot, though the construction leaves a bit to be desired. My biggest gripe is this: the barrel is kept in place, at the muzzle end, by the pump cylinder endcap. The endcap is just snapped in place and free to rotate, so the barrel can twist if it is moved. Bumped the end of the barrel just putting the pistol down and moved it left enough to mess with the zero. Is it a common problem? Do other owners just make do?Stupid diagram included
Shot my Legacy today, only mod I did was to polish the slit in the pump tube where the linkage arm travels, has a tendency to be rough and abrade the aluminum piston.>>61660809> Is it a common problem?Not really. The throat of the barrel has a hole which sits over the transfer port and this keeps it stable unless if you’re using intermounts with a scope, that could cause it to rotate. Maybe check to see if it’s snug in the plastic breech. You could add a little plumbers tape around the barrel in the breech to snug it up but I haven’t had issues on mine.
>>61660970No, on the other side, muzzle side. See diagram.Good looking rifle anon, not a fan of the wood-colored plastic though
>>61660992Right it’s press fit at the muzzle but it shouldn’t rotate in stock form because the barrel is fixed over the transfer port. That should stop any barrel rotation unless you’re applying a lot lateral pressure on the barrel which wouldn’t occur in normal use.
>>61660992And the front sight cap shouldn’t rotate either as it’s fixed in place by the linkage pin
>>61651403This. That will DEFINITELY kill the fuck out of someone, easy. Hell, 20 ft/lbs with a .177 could potentially make a full pass on a person so long as bone is not hit. Lack of knockdown? Sure. But that's still a hole all the way through you. Now imagine a mag dump from a hatsan blitz right to the chest. You're done. It's ogre.
>>61661066I see. Trying it further, the front cap assembly isn't actually rotating but bending a bit. I'll look it over some other day, going to bed now. Gn anons
>>61661116 53 fpe stock tune in .30 would suck to be shot with a auto spray for sure. Even with .22 and the .25 versions it'd be pretty effective. Stock mags get 21 shots in .22, 19 in .25, and 16 in .30. Hi cap mags are 45 shots in .22, 41 in .25, 33 in .30. The blitz has enough air capacity to full auto mag dump a few mags too, not just one. Might get one for fun one day, probably in .22. Not for SD though, got guns for that, I'd mag dump a opossum with it though.
>>61641541They should make a break barrel rifle with a larger air chamber for more power.
>>61655984Is this any better than just getting a PCP?
>>61667816Almost same power as PCP also It's much lighter and you don't need an air source. It's under $300 too.
I'm at 6,000 crossman pointed pellets out of this weihrauch hw30 since late February. Front sight fell off once, rear trigger screw consistently backs out, and I had to adjust the screws around the cocking arm because it was binding up. Still enjoying it despite the issues. Seriously it bound up so hard early on I almost couldn't get it open I dunno what monkey wrenched the screws down on that thing it was way over torqued.
>>61648421Had a friend who had one of these, I shot it too once. He couldn't get through a magazine without any hickups or malfunctions. He ended up returning the gun
>>61648421Why the fuck does that thing look like a Benelli M4 lol>>61652160I like that magazine placement. Very neat.
>>61668876Hatsan makes shotguns too maybe that's why.
>>61668116 Yeah things shaped like shotguns that don't shoot shells are usually pretty cheesy, doesn't surprise me.
>>61644377here in europe squirrels are friends. aside from the red american squirrel which is an invasive species and it usually receives my .117 pellets
>>61672039>here in europe squirrels are friends. aside from the red american squirrel which is an invasive speciesUhhh, are you retarded? Grey squirrels are the ones from North America.
>>61672039 Lol being friends with treeniggers. Never heard of a .117 pellet
>>61672106mistranslation, I meant the Tamiasciurus hudsonicus which we call the red american here>>61672130.177 I meant, I'm dyslenix
>>61672130Grey squirrels are absolutely treeniggers, and I exterminate them any chance I get. Big, ugly, obnoxious, and territorial pests. They push out populations of smaller more docile squirrel species to the point where they're basically all you see near civilization since we keep their natural predators away.
>>61672332Here in America we eat the legs. Better than frog.
>>61645262>poacherIt's usually legal to kill nuisance animals (those destroying your property).
>>61673175just something about eating rodents that doesn't sit right with me
>>61641541SBR Chads
>>61673576Based 90s kid
>>61673467 I'd post more dead treeniggers but haven't seen any since the last time.
>>61672332i shoot em cause they good fried tossed in sauce
>>61654949 Didja do it anon?
>>61677326> Didja do it anon?>>61660970Yeah just polished up the Legacy 1000 a little, neat gun but I think I like the 880 better. I might get one of the new production Chinese 2100s to see how they compare but I’ve already got a metal receiver AM77. Still waiting on the valve for my 2250 build.
>>61655984Getting a cheap pcp would be a better deal. The nitrogen cartridges are way too expensive.
Maybe there will be some sales this weekend
>>61680405If you target plink everyday yes. I don't have that opportunity for one.
>>61673544Well la dee da Mr new york city slicker 100 dollar wagyu hotdog for lunch eater
>>61684656HE NEED TO TRY THE SQUIRREL DOG
>>61645262>>61644861>>61644472
>>61672332Seconding eating squirrel. I don't know if I'd call them ugly though lol. Maybe compared to reds. I'm picky about what I eat but if they're squirrels that spend all their time innawoods with no trash, plastics, etc. around they're no different from any other animal in the woods and they're pretty clean. Cleaner than a lot of other animals people eat for sure.>>61673175The meat around the back legs is good too. Good for stews and soups. Like chicken. Fry in a pan.
>>61658999>780 fps is the UK limit? Sort of, limits are calculated by foots-pound, with my ammo 12fp is more or les 770-780fps, more and you need to loicense it like a firearm.Were I live the maximun limit is 24 fp, but I've it regulated to uk limits, for Hunting Field Target is the maximun and being a .177 rifle there are problems with pellet stability if it shoots hotter.
>>61689351>Were I live the maximun limit is 24 fp,Sorry, I mean 28fp I keep mixing foot-pounds with joules, 28fp/24joules
>>6168938324 joules is 17 fpe
I shot a can a few times today
>>61691225Are the iron sights decent on that?
>>61692282Yeah, it’s actually a peep and works quite well imho.
>>61641541posting
>>61689666Yep, you are right, I'm not used to convert measures and it shows
>>61675607We’d go shoot each other in the woods, just 2 or 3 pumps. I liked shooting those steel darts in my basement. *thwack*
>>61692834 Who makes this? Reminds me of those morinis or AV comp 10.
>>61687268 Another one this morning right around the same time and same spot as this one, great brain shot. 16 fpe to the brain is a good off switch with no pass through using these wadcutters. Really slaps em down. Ordered a 1.25-4x MIK tasco to try instead of the 2x20 MIJ tasco I'm currently using. The 2x is clear and works as it should I just want something that has a range of magnification, hoping it's decent. Would have gone with a 2-7 but most of the ones id want are out the budget for this air pistol.
>>6169283410 meter?
bump why the fuck are all the good threads on /k/ dead today?
>>61691225 I really want a air rifle with GOOD irons. I'm considering a hw90 but saw the 3622 and thought it might scratch the itch for much cheaper, and I already have a pump.
>>61700438It’s not bad just a little loud. Make sure to use the 20% off coupon if you do.
>>61701005 Can you compare the muzzle report to anything ? I shoot a air pistol with a 6" barrel that's a bit loud even moderated, do you think it's on that level of loudness or quieter ?
>>61703108It’s as loud as any pumper I own, but probably closer to my CO2 2240 which has a good bark with its short barrel
