Understanding the Quattro Trigger Adjustments
We’re going to spend a little bit of time looking at how to adjust a few common triggers. The trigger is the shooter’s connection to their gun.

Marauder .25 Cal after a little TLC

If you were to come hang out with me for a couple of days here in Lake Havasu City (anyone’s welcome to come over by the way!), you’d see that I wear a lot of hats. Here’s a short list: I review guns for various airgun related companies, I consult on quality control and customer […]

Crosman’s little diamond in the rough
We are continuing our journey looking for budget airguns that deliver on accuracy and performance. Hopefully they deliver performance well above their price point. Today’s example started out as the Remington Vantage. It’s had a few changes and is now the Crosman Vantage. Let’s take a look. Not much to look at… but is that […]
