Need a TAU-200 sight... Where?

Hi, I just acquired a TAU-200 that has no sights of any nature. The previous owner used a scope. Does anyone know the best place to buy a new peep sight and front sight for this gun? Also, are there any aftermarket sights that could be suggested, like a Williams Gun Sight or something like that? Tha...

Proper posture and sight alignment?

Hello, extreme novice here... Could somebody point me to a website or document that will show the proper (maybe in the form of a picture) air rifle standing posture/form? Also could you direct me to some information on the proper alignment or use of aperture sights. I am currently playing with my Av...

Thanks Mark, yeah, I did read that exact thread earlier today. I guess I was mainly wondering, if since that thread or in general, nitrogen usage was on the upswing or considered an OK choice. I guess I was just looking for input from someone who was actively doing it right now... Maybe I'll contact...

Is it OK to use Nitrogen in a CA pistol?

Folks, I was wondering, does anyone actively use Nitrogen in CA pistol's like the LP10 etc? The gun store near where I work, has ONLY Nitrogen, but will fill my cyclinders for nearly free... Any reason to not use Nitrogen? I searched the board here and got some good information about this topic, but...

I guess the CO2 seems like more of an effort, with little gain(?)

Is this why CA is so prevalent?

Ok, thanks.

I understand the obstacles to filling with CA at home, but how do they differ with CO2?

Is CO2 legal and everything to have in the house? Can it be purchased easily?


What is the upside vs. CA? It doesn't seem like that much(?)


No flames please, I am naive about this.

CO2 cylinder filled... Where?

OK, I tried first to search for this answer on the forum, but could not find it. When somebody owns a CO2 gun, how do they get it filled? I suppose that you could do it yourself or have your local gun store fill it(?) Is this like having the tanks on paintball guns filled? Same concept? Do some actu...

Walther LGR information/questions...

Does anyone have one of these rifles?

I don't know much about it, but how is its accuracy, etc.?


I have a chance to buy one for $350, and wondered what it would be worth...?


The one I'm looking at has been spray painted black, any comments on that?


Thanks,


John

A question for TAU-7 Match owners...

OK, I have read as much as I can find on the internet and used the search function on this website extensively. I still have this question about the TAU-7 Match version. How many reliable, normal (match) shots can you truly get from a C02 cartridge under an average shooting pressure (450 fps-ish) wi...

Best Hand Pump?

Group, I have read many comments on this forum about the different brands/kinds of hand pumps. I have no experience with the different hand pump brands. But none of the 3 (?) out there seem to stand above the others. I'll be buying one in the next 2 weeks. Any guidance on picking one? Thanks, John

So I can cover one lense with frosted masking tape...


Wonder why "frosted" masking tape is best?
