Re: Air Rifle Scholarships

Graduated high school or college? Jacksonville is currently ranked number 14 in the nation. It is hard to get a scholarship to the really good teams. Many schools, however, have a varsity team and a club team. Kentucky and WVU come to mind. Many other colleges like Clemson field a club team only an...

Re: precision rifle that fires .22

There are plenty of .22 spring air rifles, but I don't think you'll find any dedicated 10m target air rifles in .22 calibre. The rules usually specify .177 calibre, so there's no impetus to build one. Someone with the knowledge could build one or convert an existing 10m gun if they really wanted to...

precision rifle that fires .22lr

I've seen a picture of a gun that's designed just like a .177 10 meter rifle.
No idea what it's called or where to find it.
If you know, help please

Re: CO2 woes

Are you bleeding out the excess CO2? My 2.5oz tank for my 887 gets stuck in the fill adapter if I don't bleed the co2 out

Re: Air Rifle Scholarships

There are about 33 NCAA Air/Smallbore rifle teams and of those around 13 are Division 1 Schools, which means they can give out 3.5 scholarships I think a year. Pistol and shotgun are not NCAA sports, but are club sports. However, there are a small number of colleges/universities such as Ohio State ...

Re: T200 Air Cylinder

My club has three T200 air cylinders that leak through the gauge & slowly discharge all air from the cylinder. Looking for a source for repair or parts to fix them. We had this issue at my school, we just ended up buying 6 new tanks. Not really cost effective unless you've got $800 to blow, try...

Air Rifle Scholarships

Is it an actual thing? I've never heard about colleges having shooting teams.
I'm not sure If I'm a good enough shot to really get in, I was shooting a decent 240 in high school, I've dropped to a 198 from lack of shooting an inferior equipment.
Anyone know anything?

Re: Why isn't there an Airsoft target gun?

Interest in the US is low as there are so many shooting sport options available: sporting clays, bullseye, IPSC, PPC, appleseed, ISSF, silhouette, IDPA, etc. In Japan where real weapons are illegal they do shoot airsoft guns such as you describe: http://shop.ehobbyasia.com/pistols-gbb-smgs/maruzen/...
