Thanks for the tip! I have looked at this mod and have considered it.
I don't have a tap so I've not done more than think about it, but perhaps I should do this.
Is there a good pictorial showing how to take the gun down to component parts that you could point me to?
Thanks,
Lee

Thank you Jason
Jason, Thanks for the link, the under knee method is working for my boy quite nicely. He needs a few more inches of reach to do the first method shown on the video. I agree on the accuracy of these guns ... pretty amazing for their cost. I also don't mind the triggers, if a shooter can learn to succ...

Re: Iron Sights vs Old Eyes
Anyone had laser corrective surgery with the dominant eye set for close and the other for distance? This sounds a bit serious - not to mention CRAZY! Actually it's not crazy at all. It's called mono-vision and it allows you to see without glasses or contacts. If you have good distance vision in bot...

Thanks Jason, That technique pulling the butt back and holding w/ the knee might help. It will definitely be better than what he is doing now! His arms are not quite long enough to do it in the first example the video shows. I did find this video series, but only watched a few and missed the one you...

Pumping technique for an Advanti 853 while prone w/ sling?
I've started working w/ my 10 year old son shooting 3 Position Air Rifle using an Avanti 853 Legend rifle. Does anyone know of any YouTube videos that show a reasonably good way to pump the rifle while prone with a sling? What he is doing now is awkward for him, and I can't envision any other method...

I've had a number of eye surgeries (not Lasix) that has resulted in 'mono-vision' where my dominant eye is set for near and my other eye set to infinity. I have retinal wrinkling so my entire vision is wavy (think of looking through crinkled cellophane) but I find I can still shoot iron sights at 54...
