Thanks Jeff
I am proud of my Gamo collection..:) as you can tell. They all shoot well and I have not one complaint about any of them, except the Hunter 1250 Roya .22.. It is a bit heavy for me..
Gene

Hey, Gene, if the 1250 Royal is too heavy for you, I'm sure you could find someone to take it off your hands for you :-). Nice collection, it's pictures like this that really make my wife nervous. Especially when I tell her that my CFX is just the begining... At least she won't be able to say I didn't warn her!

Usually when I go out to shoot, it is hard to pick which one I want to shoot first...:) Yesterday I was shooting my QB .22 bulk. Then put some more pellets through the S1K .20. It is a really great mod. I also packed the butt with pillow stuffing and like Rich said. It made a big difference in recoil and sound. Today I will work on the stock hanging in the background of the picture. It is a Hunter 440 stock that had three cracks. I have glued and doweled the stock and sanded it smooth. I am using a cherry wood stain. Thinking of putting that stock on the S1K .20.. but could put on the .177 S1K.
When my grandson comes over. I have him cock the 1250 for me, so I can shoot it...:)
Let your wife know that we enjoy our toys. It keeps us out of the bars and off the streets..:) She may understand... lol

What rifle is that with that sweet "draganov stock" sp?
-
Do you mean on the left second from top?
Gene
-
Very nice, very nice.....and I thought I was Gamo "crazy"...LOL....I still have a ways to go to catch you Gene.
BTW, what did you use to remove the threaded rear sight adjustment post? ( Sorry, I don't know the exact name for it....it's the threaded rod that remains sticking up after removing the rear sight from the S1k)
Thanks
-
Used an allen wrench. Look close and you will see a hole for allen wrench. I had a short allen screw and replaced the long one with it..
Gene
-
Yes second one from the top on the left... Id love to get one like that for my rifle :)
-
Very nice Gene much better than paint or wall paper i might just have to redecorate my house wirh guns like you have lol Serious now nice collection very nice.
PS when i get a chance i will post my collection for yall to have a gander at. 8)

Thanks for the help, Gene. Unfortunately my rifle has a solid stud. I have seen them with the allen pattern though, but alas, mine has none.
-
Wow, I never heard of it being a stud. But I do not know allot. The two S1K's that I own are threaded and can be removed. You may want to ask in the other Gamo forum.
Good Luck Mark
Gene

Good Luck

I called it a stud for the lack of a better term. Kind of reminded me of the cylinder studs in my MX motorcycles, except a lot smaller. Then I got to thinking....maybe I could use the double nut method to remove it? Problem is, I don't have a thread gauge to measure the threads or diameter of it and I didn't think home depot would appreciate it if I brought the rifle into their store to try out different nut, to see which would fit! :D :D
