What Kind of Oil Should I Use?
Both CO2 and spring powered air guns do need some maintenance to help ensure a long life. Keeping them clean is a big part of that care, but you do need to be careful about what you are putting in and on your air gun. The valve assemblies in today’s CO2 powered air guns are […]
Dust in the Wind: Shooting with Air Venturi Dust Devil BBs
Recently, I’ve been tinkering with a somewhat new product on the market – frangible BBs. For years, frangible ammunition has been the rage in the centerfire world.
