Illegal Gun Factory
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-sussex-45271874 Hi Guys. See the above link. It is a recent announcement by the BBC that an illegal gun factory has been discovered by crime investigators.

Re: Over fill of air
Hi June Its sometimes hard being new to a sport you do not fully understand. You did the right thing and joined the owners club and sought advice. I was in exactly the same position earlier this year and found the AAOC. I went along to their annual meet up and I can tell you that they are a friendly...

God
I used to take Sunday school once a month at the church I attended. One time the 4 to 5 year olds in the class were drawing pictures of anything we had mentioned in the lesson - just to fill time. Most of the pics are unrecognisable but you musn't ask "What's this" as that could offend, rather you s...

Accuracy and the Individual
Much is said at my club and even more on-line about the accuracy of different air guns. Everytime I read a report it tells you about the variables eg type of pellet, range, wind etc. Nothing is ever said about the skill of the individual doing the firing. Why is this? Does this not factor into the a...

Re: Over fill of air
whoops Roger said 165/170 not 190 - sorry R. He knows more than me. Best to do your own test just for the fun if nothing else.

Re: Over fill of air
HI yes as Roger says most fill it to say 190 or 180. This is likely to be the start of your sweet spot. And probably go down to 90, which will be about where the sweet spot falls off - assuming your gun is unregulated. Filling beyond these settings is of little value in terms of consistency. Beg, bo...
Re: Shroud
Thank you Peter, you are right. It just shows you that you cannot trust all you are told on the Internet. That's why we have this forum - guys who know what they are talking about and that people like me can trust. I will be a little more suspect in future and will take a deep breath before rushing ...
Re: Shroud
As the little boy in Dicken's says "I don't know nuffink" but isn't it a shroud or a moderator, ie you don't fit both.
And I believe in the US where moderators/silencers are illegal, there are no screw ends on barrels - shrouds would need to be sleeved over the end.
