  1. not knowing the sizes of hw80 or the hw 90 . if the barrels are ment to be the same size but just a few thou. out your adapter may be a little to tight . a few years back a friend had a commeta rifle and a silencer ment to fit , but didnot . with the tools available at the time a drill , wood dowel and course sand paper I got the silencer to fit by opening up the inside dia of the silencer . A lathe would be the best thing to use
  2. a long long long time ago reading and airgun mag . John Darling was writing how to shoot wood pigeons at night with an air gun but you could only use moon light . So this time of year was great when the leaves have fallen and the silhouette of the pigeon was obvious .Things may have changed .
  3. you will have to learn how to aim a sling shot without the sight . Then how to set up the sight will be obvious but it will just be a fine tune and it may not help at all .
  4. alright mate hope you got your bands ? I think the reason people have stopped putting up stuff is the world is now full of self righteous goody goody little tale tales, and even though there are know real laws covering catty,s the last time someone put a night shot photo up they got badgered off of here and had to take it down, so yes I think people are still out and at em,( I know I am ) but just not willing to talk about it or post pics, big shame really, that's why most now go on the American sites, were people seem happy for your success rather than in a rush to bring your legitimateness i
  5. golf range finders , the cheap ones use the standard flag height on the green, you measure the height of the flag to judge your distance . you need a lazer range finder
  6. I got a 120 pounds ish range finder some years back . Mildot scope and a range finder for shooting rabbits is a must for me now . I would not bother to try and shoot rabbits without a rangefinder now . Best thing I ever bought to aid shooting .
  7. are or were they made by fx . I have a verminator a very nice gun I now have a soft spot for fx guns . fx are never mentioned much but a very good gun .
  8. just a delay would be fine so thing can go on the same .
  9. There will be no trouble people are bizzy watching tv , listening to radio ,some reading news papers and they believe it all . Thats when they take a break from computer games and videos . The media , politicians and top legal bods pump out one big lie 24 7 like any soviet run dictatorship .The will of the the people is just POPULIST rubbish that is why we have a democracy so politicians can make the correct decision . You can see the problem with asking the populus to answer the brexit problem they got it wrong now the professionals will make the choise for us like always . if they do the s
  10. rolyan orange or green green has more power . I found this stuff ok . theraband tube i dont know about . but the bigger your ammo the bigger your bands will have to be . you have to match your bands with your ammo . so to get the bands you want people will have to know what ammo you will be using and how much power you hope to get ... but for general shooting i found the rolyan orange and green ok . i am using theraband gold ftat bands at the moment but would still use the rolyan stuff , flat bands make a lot of noise compared to tubes .
  11. I have been messing with starship sling shots . i have now made one i like . i cant post pictures . ..a few good things are better accuracy and more power . one main thing i like is you get 6 ft lbs + out of 9.5 mm 10 mm bb.s these are cheap to bulk buy . one draw back is the sling shot wont fit in a pocket but i have added a torch to mine . people out there should give them a try .
  12. the point in voting is for the sheep to think they control there lives . the people who financed oliver cromwell to bring us democracy still run this country to day by giving us the illusion , we control our lives with democracy and voting .
  13. I would not recommend this scope .I have one evrything about this scope and mounts are very good except for one thing it WILL NOT HOLD ITS ZERO . It is a pity it may just be my scope but if you want an inch or more groups at 20 yards this scope is the one .
  14. looking on the net some time back . the problem with old FWB the seal will be funked for sure it is a plastic of some kind . you will get problems with an old gun you get them with new guns also .
  15. looks like there is a frosty response to your post
  16. yes..... . looking at the gun one spring is a lot more powerful than the other . The gun may just work with one spring. the one in the front piston but the chain would do a lot of work maybe to much . As the front piston moves when the gun is shot the chain pulls the rear piston forward .The chain is rapped round a pulley in the front of the air cylinder .The pistons are well made one has a slot in it that lets the air shoot upwards into the barrel . Dispite the problems I still like the gun unlike a once owned stealth . There is still one problem left but I will live with that the latch syste
  17. I am not to sure of that . the gun was shooting all over the place . on close inspection I found there was a bur or two or three in the barrel at the point where the pellet starts to engage the rifling . I had to make a tool to get in the barrel and remove them . also the crown was one big round bur .I fixed that with a ball bearing and lapping paste .It could still do with a bit more work but for now thats it . the gun groups ok with the odd flyer the start of the rifling is still a little rough but the pellets come out looking ok . To shoot the gun accurately the heavy trigger is a problem
  18. OK . I have fixed the bolt problem taken the gun apart and cleaned it with new grease . The gun is shooting 10.5 ftlbs so all is good . the trigger is a bit heavy . does any one know about the trigger adjustment on this gun . there is a big screw saying turn me right near the trigger but I will wait a bit .
  19. I have just got a rh91, 93 air rifle ..the problem at present or first problem found is . The probe that pushes the pellet down the barrel is to short or appears to be . Using the bolt action there is an o ring that does not go into the barrel and seal the breach when loading and shooting . So i took the bolt out of the gun the bot has three components its a handle, a body , and a probe . there is an oring and something holding the probe and body together. I am not sure what .It could be to a very fine allen screws or a very fine cross pin .Fine allen screws would make some sents this would me
  20. in the late 70s i think it was . i read in an air gun mag JOHN DARLING saying it was ok to shoot pigeons at night . He was not using lights that was illegal . So the method used was moonlight and trees with no leaves . At night the silhouette of the pigeon can be seen though a scope . dont know if it is different today .
  21. If the gun shoots fine and you like the caliber , why change . You have seen to many adds I think .
  22. i made my own..... cheap camera , cheap battery , cheap tv screen the things that cost a bit were the lens that replaces the wide angle lens in the security camera and the ir light . it cost 70 quid about for the lot . with the correct scope the sight picture is fantastic . the problem is there is all this stuff on your gun but it can go day and night vision eazy . if i hade my time again i would go the proton stuff . i also have an old school yukon night sight very heavy and very poor picture.
  23. the one i had was a blind chick when i got it . had to feed it on moisend dry cat food .
  24. Barry that sounds terrific. Just watching them in the wild is fascinating. I bet they are as good as parrots or myna birds better than a parrot .
