I am hoping to start helping them out as well as working on my own techniques this winter. I have been luckily enough to pick up some great used equipment in the past and I am hopin...

When buying used what do I look for?

I find myself in the market for a used PCP Match Air Rifle. When it comes to looking at used air rifles I have to admit I am out of my expertise. What should I look at when it comes to normal use or signs of abuse?

Thanks,

Coach Needed

I currently live in east central Indiana(US) and I am looking for somebody that can help me with my prone shooting. I have read the prone section in "the ways of the rifle" and I have ended up with more questions then answers. I am willing to drive a few hours from zip code 47362 but I wou...

Young guns with Old Guns

While cleaning my Anschutz I was thinking to myself about the history of the rifle and where it might of been prior to me. I was wondering this because the rifle is older then I am. I was born in 84 and the rifle is stamped 73. I have access to a 1813 and even a 2013 but currently I prefer shooting ...

Anschutz 1413 reciever stamp question.

I am trying to figure out why my Anschutz has an A stamped on the receiver. I've tried this question on another forum and as of yet no one knows why. Using the gun auction sites as a photo reference I have yet seen one with an A on the receiver. However some on the other forum have referenced having...

Ive got an older 1413 that I just recently started shooting. I shot my first prone match with it and shot a 379/400. Once I get everything figured out I am hoping my scores will improve a bit more. If given the opportunity I would definitely purchase another.

What is the best way to clean the dirt and grime off the outside of a canvas coat? EDIT: After doing some looking and reading I think I have come up with two possible ideas. 1) Magic Eraser 2) Dish Soap, Warm water, a scrub sponge made for non stick cookware Both would require the jacket to be hung ...

I am in the market for my first shooting jacket. I would prefer a used jacket in good condition. I have heard that is the way to go. I have my measurements but I can not find a table that will let me know what standard size jacket I would wear. I am 5'11", 155lbs, and my chest measures 37 inche...

Thanks guys, I will have to keep my eye out for an older two stage trigger. In the mean time I guess I will start saving up for a 5071. Any one know of where I could pick up a used trigger?

Anschutz Trigger

I just recently picked up a Anschutz 54 Match rifle dated 1973. Since the rifle is a match rifle and not the super match, the trigger will not go below 1lb. Being an older rifle can I update the trigger to one of the match two stage triggers that go down into the ounces.

Thanks,

Thanks for all the input. I learned today of the prices to compete so due to the lack of funds I will not be able to shoot in any competitions. I still plan on making a trip up to watch and talk to all those who are willing to answer my questions.

Good luck to all those competing.

Anschutz

I do not know much about these rifles, as I am still in the process of learning about mine. But I picked one up for about $1500.00 at the last Indy 1500 Gun and Knife Show. If you look among these threads look for the one entitled Anschutz 1813, you can read what was said about mine. http://i259.pho...
