Re: Moroni ap

I have several to choose from but if you only have a pistol to fill I would go with a Yong Heng as it is reasonably priced and filling a pistol will only take a minute or less to fill from empty and less to top off so you will get long life from one and the parts to repair if needed are readily avai...

Re: Moroni ap

Sure!! I think you mean (Morini)? If your talking a small compressor that will fill to at least 3000 Lb.and not a garage air compressor, Not a problem!! Just keep an eye on it as it's filling as the small cylinder will fill quickly. J.L.

Re: New to 10m (and AP in general)

Hurting Pelican, I'm FAR from a good shooter but the one thing that has helped me the most is not letting the break of the shot be the end of my shot process!! Try to hold the sights on the bull for two or three seconds after the shot breaks better known as (follow through) That has meant more to my...

Re: New set of newbie questions

Just a suggestion, If you have a source of scrap cardboard, get your self a spray can of 3m spray adhesive from your local auto parts store. Then just shoot a very light coat of the glue to a piece of scrap cardboard and stick the targets you have to it. The pellets will then cut very nice round hol...

Re: Rear sight for FWB 700

May I ask what it is that you don't like about the original rear sight? I have the same rifle, Is it the looks or an adjust-ability problem or something else? Just curious!! Thanks in advance J.L.

I'm fine with the rifles I have at the present time as I have four very nice rifles to choose from. I have been shooting the Walther lg300xt for the last few months with pr...

Re: Morini 162 I question about fill adaptor

Well I made a thin 27 MM wrench and removed the air fill end of the air tube and removed the fill valve and spring. It had some debris in it so I cleaned everything and reassembled it and it filled fine this time with no leaks. Seems to shoot fine but I'm sure the o-rings should all be changed as yo...

Hi! Rover, thanks for the reply!! I have a fair amount of o-rings on hand as I work on my other air guns so I put one on that looked like it was a fair fit and I was able to fill the cylinder to 200 bar with no air leaking from any were so I went to bleed the fill line and all of the air drained fro...

Re: Morini 162 I question about fill adaptor

Hi David, Do you sell these parts or can you tell me some one that dose? I would really like to just try putting on a new o-ring on the fill nipple first to see if the rest of the pistol functions as it should before I invest a lot of money in it as I really don't know how much I will use it as I am...

Morini 162 I question about fill adaptor

Hi! all, I purchased a pistol from a friends estate that appears to have been shot VERY little as most of his collection dose. I went to fill the air tube with the supplied fitting and it all leaks out before you can bleed the fill unit. It is not one of the cylinders that you normally remove to fil...
