ACCURATE! decent trigger. good second stage around 4lbs. i'm hoping the first stage smooths out. seems in the low 500fps range. pull tabs off a soda can at 15 yards with jsb exacts-no problem. i've recently set up a 10m range in my garage. _________________ I believe in gun control, If there's a gun around I want to be controlling it.......   Posted: Sat Jan 09, 2010 7:13 pm sniper Silver Status Member Joined: 28 Nov 2008 Posts: 3752 Location: Star, Idaho damn edit button. forgot to add. it's a daisy 953. $72 from PA. _________________ I believe in gun control, If there's a gun around I want to be controlling it.......   Posted: Sat Jan 09, 2010 9:34 pm scroller99 Veteran Member Joined: 03 Dec 2008 Posts: 272 Location: Hopewell Junction Nice looking gun, good luck with it _________________ crosman2250 xt crosman 1077 crosman modded 2240 benji 392 drozd bumble bee   Posted: Thu Jan 14, 2010 8:04 am Slavia Moderator Joined: 31 Mar 2008 Posts: 4382 Location: Waseca, Minnesota, USA Sniper - at some point, please post a grouping from the 953. I'll do the same with the 853 and we can see if the Lothar Walther barrel on the 853 is really worth all that extra money. _________________ ¡Listo! ¡Apunte! ¡Fuego!   Posted: Thu Jan 14, 2010 9:42 am BBgunNoob Veteran Member Joined: 18 Dec 2008 Posts: 327 Location: Pa bet you'll be pist if it isnt   Posted: Thu Jan 14, 2010 9:54 am sniper Silver Status Member Joined: 28 Nov 2008 Posts: 3752 Location: Star, Idaho Slavia wrote: Sniper - at some point, please post a grouping from the 953.

I'd go with a Beeman 2-7x28 (or was it 20?), Broom had one... _________________ "I never set out to be wierd, it was always everyone else who called me it" -Frank Zappa Speed is impressive, accuracy is deadly.

The action is the same between the two. _________________ ¡Listo! ¡Apunte! ¡Fuego!   Posted: Thu Jan 14, 2010 7:02 pm sniper Silver Status Member Joined: 28 Nov 2008 Posts: 3752 Location: Star, Idaho fritz wrote: With a rough red-dot like that, it will be less accurate than the gun.

I heard you can order the LW barrel from daisy for a resonable price. _________________ fwiw joe   Posted: Sat Jan 16, 2010 5:51 pm under500fps Veteran Member Joined: 03 Mar 2007 Posts: 217 Location: Nova Scotia I got an old Beeman 4x32 on mine and it works great .   Posted: Thu Jan 21, 2010 4:55 pm T191032 Veteran Member Joined: 30 Dec 2009 Posts: 100 Location: VA "decent trigger. good second stage around 4lbs. i'm hoping the first stage smooths out. " Sounds good, though when I went to the Plikguns site about altering the trigger and saw : "When you go to take the cover off the action lift it slowly and put your finger under it to stop the parts from scattering." I remember why me+tools+anything = TROUBLE. So, would like to know how this turns out.   Posted: Thu Jan 21, 2010 6:22 pm sniper Silver Status Member Joined: 28 Nov 2008 Posts: 3752 Location: Star, Idaho haha. i'll probably be leaving it alone for now. and to correct my statement, the second stage is more like 2lbs. the first stage is only a little "draggy" but easy to get used to. hopefully in the next week or so i'll upload some groups. _________________ I believe in gun control, If there's a gun around I want to be controlling it....... i think i'm in love     Air Gun Home Forum Index » Picture Gallery You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum All times are GMT - 5 Hours   Page 1 of 1   All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First  Select a forum Main Forums----------------AirGunHome Q&AGeneral Air Gun Questions and TopicsPicture GalleryTarget Shooting: Casual, Fun and CompetitionHunting, Pest Control, Varminting People/Events/Airgun Issue Discussion----------------Introduce YourselfThe BS TopicClubs/Events/Regional/Political Airgun Issues Maintenance, Modification and Reviews----------------RiflesPistolsAntique, Collector and Novelty AirgunsBB GunsPellets/AmmoOpticsAccessoriesAirgun Smithing Buy, Sell or Trade Forums----------------For SaleWant to Buy   Note: If you are seeing "Please enter your username and password to log in."
