It's quite surprising how accurate some setups can be even with little .2g bbs Congrats on the new rifle though, is that black thingy on the front end a gas chamber or something? (No not on the end of the barrel I'm not that silly ). Thanks. It's a buddy bottle/air bottle, think of it like a tiny divers bottle.

supersavage Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 You can use a specific pump or a big divers bottle like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It need to be Dry compressed air so we use divers bottles filled at any local dive or some gun shops now have the equipment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voicon Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Haven't seen this thread before... I bought myself a Air Arms TX200 a few months back to use in the back garden, excellent rifle. Does anyone gave permission to shoot on local land, been looking locally (South wales) but not sure where to start? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for permissions , Start with local farms or small holdings. Give them the Vermin control line. not that you just want to go shooting on there land. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is heavy but shoots really well, it as a bit of overkill for backyard plinking but I liked the look of it I will have a drive around the local farms and ask, I am in a local club but none of the members have permissions.

Thanks It would also be worth getting insurance (BASC or something similar) might increase your chances if you have it.

supersavage Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 (edited) So I've been eying up a new regulator for my R10, just need to figure out whether I'd be brave enough to fit myself or whether I'd have to find someone to fit it for me. But I'll use it a bit before I decide to buy bits to fiddle with. Edited July 22, 2017 by supersavage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rover Man Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 i would get the shop to fit it. nothing worse than scratched screws on guns from using the wrong screwdrivers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersavage Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 (edited) I'd like to to send to xtx for one of their tunes but I think they've stopped accepting tuning jobs. I don't know whether Solware would do it as they may have to "bypass" some anti-tamper bits. Edited July 22, 2017 by supersavage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersavage Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Found another tuner that isn't far from me I don't think so I may send them a message to enquire about what they can do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What oil are you using? I'm using Phillips Walnut Oil. Two applications so far and looking good. Bringing out the grain nicely. Could take a few more to get it the way I want it. I'm going for a soft sheen, not the American glossy style. John Edited August 6, 2017 by johninderby 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersavage Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Same oil and I'm attempting to get a similar finish as you're after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johninderby Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Better photo taken outside. Starting to develop a sheen. John 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersavage Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Just put the action back into the stock after letting the first rub down with the oil sit for a bit. Will try and apply some once a day through out the week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
