bb/ pellet gun guide

'no you'll shoot your eyes out'
- a Christmas story

ya we have all heard it but here I'm not trying to convince you I'm giving you ideas
i have a beloved crosman 66 powermaster (as seen in picture) that shoots pellets and bbs

i will cover.....
targets
maintenance
safety

Step 1 Safety

safety rules
1.always act as if the gun is loaded
2.never store the gun loaded even if safety is on
3.always where glasses (i once was shooting at a pigeon gut missed and the bb hit a wall and ricocheted and hit me in the chest)
4.always now whats behind your target

as long as you follow these rules you will be able to shoot another day

please make note that oil based lubricants can DESTROY all the seals in you gun very quickly. i use Fluid Film on my gun whenever it needs a lubing.

i have a Benjamin 397PA .177 and i had to rebuild it because of dumb WD40 :P

also, the gun in the pic is garbage. if you want a good gun get a Benjamin .22 Air Rifle.

the $350 price is worth it! :D

A air rifle for $350? I just got a real .22 with a red dot scope for $130 used but still.......

Try not to shoot bb's from any hybrid bb/pellet gun. The bb's are made of steel, and will ride on top of the rifling in the barrel, eroding it away until it's gone completely.

Regular gun oil should NEVER be used in an air rifle. Use some silicone based lubricant. Gun oil will damage the synthetic seals.

the gun in this picture is really shiddy, get a break barrel gun like the crosman quest (mine)

[bombmaker2]

That's actually a good gun. I used to have one and it had a killcount of ~20 rabbits.

[bombmaker2]

No. When I first signed up for this site, I couldn't think of anything else.

[leon0862]

It's "...you'll shoot your EYE out", not eyes. Sorry. Stickler for those kind of things. Great movie, though.
