I bought a B98 from Nygord and it is the best value in a PCP anywhere. Properly loaded it will drive all shots thru one hole at 10m and shoots as fast as you can pull the trigger. I love it. And it takes Morini air tanks so I use a Morini cylinder which puts more weight out front. I highly recommend...

LOL! Rob, I tried that too. I didnt buy one of the good security cameras with high resolution because they are more than a inexpensive video camera, but as I said my video camera was free. The one I have is a X-10 wireless security camera and the resolution is not good either and it has the same iss...

Rob, I tried the web cam first and the resolution is horrible and you have to put the camera so close to the target that it could get shot. The angle is also critical up close and if you put it off to the side/over/under so it is out of the way, part of the target will not be in focus. If it is all ...

Have you got an old video camera with a 10x zoom laying around? I got this one from my mother who never used it and hooked it up to an old TV. My father has two that wont record, but the video output works. You might have one of these laying around too. Some cameras need a modulator to hook to the T...

Lucky, today is your lucky day! I can officially affirm that you are not crazy, at least about this. I have the same problem with one of my 46M's. It does not affect pressurized shots, only dry fire without pressure. I didnt worry about it. Then I cleaned my gun a little and lubed the trigger and st...

Okay, I have to answer this. I’m sorry but the tone of some of this, (not all of it! but some of it is really poor in my opinion) The dollar has really been “falling”, what 10 days now???? And relative to what it has fallen, compared to what it had rose from, it really has fallen nothing in the ove...

Well thats all nice Steve. I have a degree in Finance and Economics and I do understand foreign exchange and market forces, but that is generally not the principle at work here. The real question is, are the USA dealers going to have the balls/decency to lower their prices as the Euro falls as fast ...

With the euro falling, when are we going to see prices go down? Ever?

Re: 46 vs 46M

Dover: From my point of view, the 46M is better for that has more speed. The top German air pistols shoot at 500 FPS (feets per second), the 46M at 470 and doesn't leave a clean hole in most targets, the izh46 leaves ripped. Buy the IZH46M. Nano May be your pellets. It isnt the gun! My IZH 46M shoo...

Try changing front sight blade or adjusting the front sight. Mine came with several front blades and two rear blades.

But I have never had the problems you are describing.

I have never seen a slide catch on a IZH35M that will automatically keep the slide open after the last shot.

All three of mine have a slide catch but they are manual. My build year is 2002.

If someone else has seen one, obviously custom and darn hard to make, please post a picture.

Never mind the physics. If you are shooting at 10m, you can spit just about anything that will fly out of the front, and in most quality guns it will go thru the same hole if the gun is in a machine rest or held to the same point of impact. My IZH, Morini, Anschutz, and Aeron really dont know what t...
