Re: Dropped Butt Plates
Not sure which brand of air rifle you have. My son has an LG400 Anatomic. Stock buttplate didn’t drop low enough for him, so we replaced it with the KK500 buttplate and carrier, minus the hook as I don’t believe it’s legal. Solved the adjustment limitation of the original buttplate but is a little m...

Re: Flying with airguns
WAG should be a good outing. Make sure you have a hard case (with wheels) that you can throw multiple locks on. Keep the pellets in a separate bag (but don’t try to carry on). Colorado Springs does not allow outbound air cylinders without a waiver from the OTC (make sure the cylinder is empty while ...

Re: KK500
My son shoots a KK500. I’m gathering the rifle came without sights? I can’t speak to the original front sight. We replaced it with a Centra duo-vario. The original rear sight is a (Centra?) Insight Out. We replaced it with a Centra 10-50. It has a lot more clicks and works great indoors and out. All...

Re: Precision air rifle selection
The short answer is yes, the adjustments become important as your son improves/grows and you know he's going to stick with the sport. As you've probably gathered by now, the sport is a little expensive when you throw in all the gear (inclusive of a smallbore and air rifle if he plans to shoot colleg...

KK500 Front site ladder
Outdoor season will be quickly upon us. My son uses a 10-50 rear sight on a kk500 with the stock extension. He likes the sight but its A LOT of clicks to go from 50 yds/m to a 100yds. Does anyone have a recommendation for a ladder for the front sight to reduce the site adjustments he's having to mak...

Re: Gun hanger/hook for off hand stand
One of the clubs we shoot at has some of these. The ones I've seen first hand seem sturdy. See the third item down in the catalog. Worth a look...
My son practices with a wired scatt at home as well. He sets the rifle down on an old end table when he's taking a break.

Re: Precision Air Rifle for Junior
Hey Gang, We shoot with Emme Walrath. She set the national record with a Pardini. My son has the Walther Anatomic. He likes it, but it requires some work to balance the weighting; its very front heavy. I think the Pardini is very well thought out from a design perspective. The upper end Walthers see...

Re: Anschutz 9015 Re-Seal
Albert, I’m not a do-it-yourselfer with these kinds of things (yet). My son shoots a 9015 club stock rifle (18 months old) and had it serviced by Gregg Rice at The X Count for $150 this summer. It now fires BETTER than new. We contacted Anschutz North America to find a trained gunsmith that could wo...

Re: Gun Case
We’re in Wisconsin and on a normal year there would have been a state shoot that my junior was looking forward to. Guess we’ll just have to keep practicing and be ready for next year MT, Off topic, but we’re in Illinois. CIPS in Bloomington has a pretty robust shooting schedule beginning in the fal...
