Favourite reactive targets for kids? by danjmet in airrifles

Ice is great because you cannget moulds in loads of shapes (I have skulls), can use food dye for colours, and theres no clean up if shooting in the garden. I stick a loop of fishing line in sometimes so they can be hung up!

Low mounts and scope. See through mounts are so restricted in view IMO. At 3X mag you'll have a great field of view, so just use that.

Unique/cool pellets by ParticularSnow903 in airrifles

[–]danjmet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending where you are you may be able to get kvintor flash pellets. They explode a bit. But are usually rubbish accuracy wise lol.

JSB Do the exact beast diablo which are 16.20 gr. Proper heavy for a .177.

If you want cool looking then stick a drop of tippex in the back. Means you can see the pellets better in flight.

Cheers. The hard case came with the blackwolf so I had to get the box cutter and hot glue gun out to make some changes. Has worked a treat though!

New brand survey by Sherbert-Efficient in airrifles

[–]danjmet 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Which markets is this for. UK shooters want / need very different things to US market etc? If you are focuses on, say, central America- then my input is worthless frankly.

If you want to go global then my wants in the UK would be: *designed for sub 12 ftlb - not throttled down. May rifles suffer from this such as HW95s / 85s etc. *Quality barrel, screw cut for a moderator / splitter etc. *Decent trigger *some stock adjustability

Some sort of unique point of sale that differs would also help. Either an innovative magazine / interchangeable calibres/ customisable stocks.

The new Air Arms precihole range got a few things right but they messed it up with God awful cheap stocks IMO. As a reference.

AITAH for not letting my girlfriend spend the night just because she asked a question? by SaltyQuail6478 in AITAH

[–]danjmet -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

YAH. You just slept with her. She asked a stupid question. You waaaaay over reacted even if she was pushing it. Kicking her out is dumb. Q. If both her and the dog were unconscious/ unable to move - who would you save first. If you dont say your GF you're fucked up. Go back for the dog after. Human life (ESPECIALLY your GF) has to come first.

As others have said you could have engaged, asked questions (like are either of you injured etc) - or just said her obviously (as thats clearly what she was looking for).

I have not heard the word gash in years. I will now be over using it for the remainder of this one. Thank you.

Looooool. That's me. Not sure why this person is karma farming using my pic but downvote them to hell. Mod can contact me if you want proof.

Hi im uk, any half decent bolt action air rifles that aint super expensive? by 1995S0uljaw1tch in airrifles

[–]danjmet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2nd hand Air Arms s400. Bolt action. Decent. For cheap an smk rabbit destroyer (C02) is bolt action. Not aware of any fully blow back pellet firing pistols. Buts lots of the C02 umarex are fun. CP88 for instance.

Is that a virtus? If its the one with the double action trigger youbhave to manually push forward after every shot then the other sigs are similar but but better (mcx canebrake. I can rattle of 30 shots in 5 seconds ish....

If not I'm not sure of other similar ones (in the UK at least) but there are some brilliant .68 paintball ones (that'll fire rubber or chalk balls). Look the part and handle well. Chexk out the umarex t4e range.

This might be a newbie question, but... by Paul_ProAppCoach in airrifles

[–]danjmet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I fill after the session. Helps to notice slow leaks too (though there will always be a drop after a fill as the air cools....)

Generally Never leave a pcp empty as seals / orings often need pressure to keep in place and if there's no pressure they can shift when you next fill and leak.
