[Rontier]

Thanks for that!!  Jeff,
I just confested to my wife what I'de done in a hour
of weekness! She did not hit the roof . that's good.

I'm wondering are they a good indoor range gun?
like load? as my Quest 1000. or Big cat.
& the power?
it's getting cold here & just read a review on the Xisico air gun's by mike, I was almost going to get the B12 ? But Mike said it was a very cheep made,
& could not got it to group at all?. anyway I like the
review he gave on the AK 47 ,so went with it.

& have a lot of us got this gun?
Thank again Jeff for the support Great Guy's here !

Both of mine shot pretty good right from the box after I cleaned all the Chinese mystery oil off them,,, but they really start to shine after a home tune  :)

But like I said, right from the box they'll shoot very accurate groups and mine seemed to pretty much like any pellet I fed them  :)

Jeff is ther a page on Home tuneing a B3-1 AK 47?
Great too hear good out of the box Accuraty :)
where do I get a QF-2 tune kit?  & what does it do
for the B3-1?
Ron cold in TX!!

[longislandhunter]

I do have a tuning page for the AK saved as one of my favorites,,,, I will find it and post it for ya.  As for the QF-2 kit,,,, I know Archer Airguns sells them,,, as well as some aftermarket parts/accessories for the AK....

Swapping the stock spring with the QF-2 spring will boost up your FPS and give it more "oomph"  :)

South Summit on the "MALL" has the QF-2 tune kits for $8 - find them under Airguns/Cleaning kits.

A tuning page is here:

I'll surely follow a few things on those pages, likely not all of them though.

GOT MY CLEANING SPRING SEAL KIT FROM SOUTH SUMMIT TODAY .
BUT HAVE MORE CLEANING TO DO & A HONE JOB TOO DO /& STONE THE SPRING ENDS/ & MORE SANDING!!
i'M TRYING SOMETHING GOING TO UP A RUBBER SEAL INSIDE THE LOOSE ONE ON THE PISTON TO TAKE UP THE SPACE?
SO WILL SEE HOW IT HOLDS UP..
& THE NEW SPRING IS ABOUT 2-3" LONGER! SO SHOULD GIVE HER SOME NEEDED POWER,

THE ONE PROBLEM IS THE REAR SIGHT IN RIGHT IN THE WAY OF MY SCOPE MOUNT, NEED HIGH RINGS ! TO CLEAR THE SIGHT??
WHY DON'T I THINK OF THESE THING?
:) JUST A FUN TIME IN TX..

[longislandhunter]

Sounds like your "gettin down to business" with that shooter  :)

I'm looking forward to your post tune review  :)

Keep up the good work.

Jeff

[Rontier]

Hey guy good to hear from you:)
Ya I'm making some progress ?

have a (?) in the cylinder the seal hits a very rough spot at the very top at the end ?uneven, like they didnot hone it all the way up!
i've used 400 wet sand paper on a wooden dow,
for about an hour or more with no change ?
wore me out!!  will a hone stones do the job?
the ones at Sears has a metal seat holding the stones in ! so they will not go all the way up?

& does the piston go that far ? too the end?

or?? am I wrong??

[Rontier]

Yep I'm Wrong ! The stones go all the way on the sears break hone tool $24.99.
Will try some Horse trading on Sat"..
See if a break shop will let me use there's??
