Re: Daisy Spring Piston Air Rifle similar to Anschutz LG 380

I have found out what it is. It is a 1984 Daisy marked Gamo 126 Super Match SSP, not a spring piston. Apparently they are pretty complicated to work on. Does anyone have any experience with these?

Re: Daisy Spring Piston Air Rifle similar to Anschutz LG 380

The gun is a Gamo made in Spain for Daisy. Does anyone know anything about these?

Daisy Spring Piston Air Rifle similar to Anschutz LG 380

Someone gave me an older target type spring piston air rifle that has Daisy address in the accessory rail channel and M C Cal. 4.5mm then a few symbols then a diabolo pellet pictured all on one line with the serial number on the second line. 1195335 Did Anschutz make this for Daisy or is it just an ...

Economy pellets

My shooting has definitely digressed from what it once was; age, eyes, lack of practice, etc. I always had good success with 4.50 Champions Choice brand pellets, but they are never in stock when I check. I believe they are made by H&N but am not sure. I bought some Excite econo pellets by H&...

Re: Celestron Landscout 10-30x 50mm Spotting Scope

Oh they claim 33 ft for both. The 12-36x will not focus down @ 12x and just barely focuses on 24x but as I said the field of view is too small on 24x @ 33 ft.

Celestron Landscout 10-30x 50mm Spotting Scope is GREAT@10m

How well does a Celestron Landscout 10-30x 50mm Spotting Scope Model MPN#52320 focus down @ 33 feet? I have the 12-36x 60mm and it marginally focuses down but on 24x. The field of view is marginal on 24x. Is the 10-30x more suited or about the same? The 10-30x 50mm is an outstanding little scope for...

Kattom. That post was not calling people from those countries windbags.

I think 50 feet is in the lead simply because of the number of 50 foot indoor ranges, which can be accessed basically 24/7. Outdoor ranges have light and weather considerations.

This time is a bit different. Gunowners in the US are appearing to stand pretty united. The Eastern Sportsman Show, a huge event with over 1200 vendors, has been cancelled as of approx noon today. This was due to their reactionary policy of no modern sporting arms or even brochures to be at the even...

I stand with Chose. They chose to not be under someone else's rules, the IOC. They chose not to fix the problem. They chose to abandon their NGB responsibilities to focus on the AWB of 1994. I am not positive but can't remember if they chose to still administer the NCAA side of things or not. I don'...

During the previous AWB fight the NRA basically dropped their NGB responsibilities with little warning. As stated earlier they made a choice. There was no USA Shooting back then. USA Shooting was a volunteer organization assembled to hurriedly fill the vaccuum. A lot of people remember this and stil...

The NRA, like many large corporations has different divisions, for legal reasons, and other considerations. The NRA proper has the official journals and various programs, i.e. Training Div, Competiton Div, Rifle Dept, etc. Then there is the NRA Foundation, the charitable arm that is a 501C3 tax exem...

That is the trouble with a rushed through bill. In addition, they had to amend the bill after it was passed to delay the magazine restricition implimentation date as many of the police depts would have been in violation.

That link was just announced Monday, after I made the initial post. Yhe bottom line in the link says it is information only, not legal advice. During the televised voting of the bill, they said "one illegal feature, Period." The law is a very restrictive one; perhaps not quite as bad as it...
