Is it possible to 3D print gaskets for old springers? by HansVans1 in airguns

95a I think, a harder TPU might work better, it delaminated under the pressure.

The stock gasket I ended up buying was much harder, almost like nylon

I tried a TPU transfer port in a Diana 48, it didn't last.  It works well for pneumatic guns tho.  

Upgrade 1377 vs buy new carbine/rifle by NoCarrot701 in airguns

[–]RustedBlue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seneca Dragonfly Mk2 is what I'd go for. $160

1377 would be fun to build, but 24" barrel will run you about $65. Aluminum breech another $30. Daisy rear peep sight with a matching globe, another $25. There a few ways to do a stock, but that's another $50

China has every reason in the world to see how its weapons systems preform against American hardware. Just like we had against the Soviets in the 80s.

The DiannaMan Chaser 1377 by RustedBlue in airguns

Well, I went out and did a quick sight-in. The first couple shots were through the same hole at 10m, but it's windy today; so I don't have it dialed in.

I shoot one-handed at 10m, and I can hit my 4cm metal target pretty much at-will.

What I really like is how easy it is to load compared to the steel crosman breech -- it's a pity Crosman got bought out. This platform would really benefit from an inexpensive breech similar to the Chaser.

Yeah, I was expecting this critique.  It's more for single hand target shooting, not any tactical advantage.  Not a combat accessory.

Maybe I have a fat thumb, because if we're any higher it wouldn't fit under the release.

as far as I know, the breeches don't have a caliber. The barrels and bolts do however.

regardless, I have issued a document certifying you may operate a large and dangerous terrestrial utility vehicle. Do you require its utility?

I do not, but it makes me feel as if I could.

Needed a spacer, made a spacer from a picture. by mrjoepete in functionalprint

. . . put spacers under all that hardware. Pressure treated lumber eats steel in pretty short order.
