BEGAN TO TUNE AIR RIFLES
« on: March 15, 2010, 02:02:02 PM »
All the time I read about tuning an air rifle here and there, but I do not knew the difference between a tune rifle
an a none tuned air rifle, until now.

I received a spring compressor fabricated by from Tim V pilot few days ago to begin my air rifles tunes.

I began with a RWS 48 and 350 mag and these rifles definitely are now another thing. Super less effort to cocking and less vibration expecially the RWS 48 .177.  

Now,  I will start a locally air rifles tuning shop and my 1st customer will come next week. So I highliy recommend tune an old or a new air rifle the shooting charasteristics will be upgraded FOR GOOD.

Now you can spend even more money on your " Hobby".   Since I tuned up my first AG, I have several right now at the house that  people want me to ' look at '.  Bad thing is they think I am an expert on airguns.    I see myself as a curious  amateur.   Everything I have learned,   I learned right here at the GTA.

Good job. Until I found this place I was a little intimidated about tackling a tune myself. Then when my seals went out I figured it cant get any worse and ripped into 2 guns. I love it now and will be upgrading every gun that I buy in one way or another.

Good luck and have fun with it.

I WILL NOT DO A BUSINESS OF TUNES. I HAVE NO TIME FOR THAT.  A GOOD TUNE TAKES OVER 3 HOURS DOING EVERYTHING WITH GOOD CARE.  SO WHEN I RETIRE OF MY BUSINESS IN 15 YEARS FROM NOW..... MAYBE I CAN THINK IN THAT.  HE HE HE..

THANKS EVERYBODY!!!!

I take it there aren't many tuners where you are. Your effort will make a lot of people happy.
