Ordering a 2240 soon.

Pyramid Air has three versions. I can't make my mind up on the base model or the XL. I like the steel breech and threaded barrel. But not sure what sights to get for it without spending another $100 right away.

The xl can take a LPA MIM rear sight, but what options for a front? Or should I just spend the mo ey on a red dot for it?

Or stick with the base model and upgrade stuff later. How bad is the plastic breech?

Best PCP Air Pistol

What would ya'll recommend as a good option on a .25 cal or bigger sub 1k$ air pistol. I have 2 air rifles, a meh one, the Hatsan Flash QE, and what I consider a damn good one, an Umarex Gauntlet SL2 .30 cal, a real nail puncher with heavy pellets. Wanting to get a pistol now, what do ya'll recommend??.

SMK Victory PCP Air rifle

I tried one of these at the weekend and it seemed a nice rifle and a cheap intro into pcp. Does anyone have a comments on long term use and reliability. Thanks

Just clicked order on a HW30 from Krale!

I'm excited! This will be my first rifle. I look forward to getting some easy backyard practice. I was going to wait a bit and play with the Beeman P17 pistol I got recently a bit more, but with terrifs coming to the US soon I wanted to order it in case the price would go up.

Anyone know how fast Krale is with shipping?

Cant get gun to hold air. It's a seneca dragon claw ii. 50 cal.

I shot it at the range last week and refilled it to ~190 bar and shot it a few times to get it down to about 110 bar. I went to refill it this week and it now won't hold air. Every time I try and fill it up when I turn the release valve to unplug it all the air just comes out. It won't even hold 1 bar now. The guns brand new only had it for 9 days now. Am I doing something wrong.

Air Venturi Avenger classic?

AirVenturi Avenger Classic. I have a Air Leak from the Regulator base. When Regulator is screwed clockwise snug giving no pressure to plenum, no Leak....

1/4 turn counter clockwise giving about 1,000 lbs of pressure, no leak

Anything over 1/4 turn specifically 1/2 to 3/4 turn giving 2,000 lbs there's a heavy air Leak at base of Regulator.

Removing the Regulator checking threads and even trying some thread tape does absolutely nothing.

I do not see a larger Oring on main threads besides the small oring on Regulator shaft.... is this my Leak? The small hard teflonish style Oring?

Suggestions would be appreciated.. Thank you

Avenge x classic vs tactical vs jts airacuda max

Hi guys, was set on the jts airacuda max or (liked the build quality and wood) or brawn in .22 but some friends mentioned the avenge x.

  • I am 6'6 tall en was wondering if there is a ergonomical difference between the two avengers?
  • We have land behind our house which is 180 yards deep but range will be between 30 and 100 yards, plinking.
  • will there be much difference in accuracy at said range?
  • i will not be switching the barrel
  • build quality(and reliability?)of the jts(all wood and metal) will probably be better?

Which would you choose and why, the max, the classic x in wood or the tactical x? Thanks!

new in the world of pcp

I am 57 and after 40 years I bought a rifle again, first the Gamo Swarm Magnum .22, but quickly switched to PCP, started with a Diana Stormrider .22 gave it to my grandson, , then a Kral Puncher .25 and a JTS Airacuda Max .25, unfortunately my wife was not happy with 2x a .25, not much remained intact in the garden, so I sold the Kral to an acquaintance and bought a Webley Raider 12 .22 for a nice price.

Where to sell a Daisy 853c Avanti in Canada?

Hi there!

I'm not a part of this community so I apologize if I mess anything up. I'm looking to sell my Daisy 853c Avanti that I used for Air cadets as it's been sitting around and I haven't had a use for it. It's in basically mint condition aside from a a couple of very small scuff marks.

I tried posting on Kijiji and Facebook but they do not allow the sale. I saw someone posted here a year ago looking to purchase one, but am struggling to find the proper place. If anyone has a suggestion as to where I can sell it that would be greatly appreciated!
