    Beeman R7 problem

    I've tried several mounts both one and two piece, no difference. A number of people have told me the problem is the barrel not locking up in the same place every time. Since the rear sight is mounted on the barrel it still shoots straight with the iron sights. I'm told the breech seal could be...

    Beeman R7 problem

    That was after the gun was cocked. It locks up ok but if I close it very hard it will often bounce back open . A guy on another forum told me the breech seals on the HW30/R7 are often oversized and that keeps the gun from locking up correctly. If that is the case he says after awhile it will...

    Beeman R7 problem

    Yep. At the end of the day he sold me a gun with a defect and wouldn't do anything about it. Not exactly the world class service we hear so much about.

    Beeman R7 problem

    I'm not happy about it at all. I can't shoot iron sights very well because of my old eyes and as the gun is I can't use a scope. My problem is that Mike Melick won't even consider the possibility that something is wrong with the gun and he won't do anything about it. I paid him $350.00 for the...

    Beeman R7 problem

    I'm pretty sure there is a defect of some kind. The guy I bought it from won't even consider the possibility that something is wrong with the gun. It shoots good with iron sights so I've got that going for me anyway.

    Beeman R7 problem

    I've mounted many scopes although I wouldn't call myself an expert. The problem I'm having is the gun , with a scope , doesn't shoot in the same place twice. If I could get it to group anywhere on the paper I could figure out how to adjust but it shoots from 5 inches high to 10 inches low...

    Beeman R7 problem

    The next time my son in law stops by I will have him shoot it, he's a pretty good shot with an air gun, but I'm really not expecting him to do any better than I have. I probably own 50 or more air rifles by now and I've been shooting over 50 years. No one has ever accused me of being a great...

    Beeman R7 problem

    I thank you all for your suggestions, first chance I get I will work on it some more. Unfortunately, the person I bought it from wants a minimum of $50.00 just to look at the gun and with shipping I'm not sure that makes sense. I may just shoot it with iron sights. Thanks again for your help...

    Beeman R7 problem

    Yes, the barrel seal looks good. This is a brand new gun tuned by one of the most respected air gun tuners/sellers around. His opinion is that the gun can't be the problem so it must be pellets, scope, the way I hold the gun.....I was hoping someone had seen this type of problem before.

    Beeman R7 problem

    I agree with you. I have a Beeman R9, a Weihrauch HW50 , a RWS 48 and an unbelievable number of Chinese springers ( my wife thinks I'm crazy ) and I've never had this problem before.

    Beeman R7 problem

    I'm using a UTG drooper mount and UTG rings. When I got the gun the barrel would flop down under it's own weight, I carefully tightened it a bit until it would just hold itself. I don't have a great selection of 177 pellets right now but without the scope it doesn't seem picky. I've shot some...

    Beeman R7 problem

    That is a really good point. I have noticed that if I close it too firmly it has a tendency to want to bounce back open. I'm going to work on that.

    Beeman R7 problem

    Everything is tight for sure, all the scopes I have tried have been AO scopes, I took the Hawke off the R7 and tried it on another gun, it was fine. I don't know but thanks for your suggestions.

    Beeman R7 problem

    Hello, A couple weeks ago I received a brand new full tune Beeman R7. To cut to the chase, this gun shoots fine with iron sights ( at least as good as I can shoot iron sights ) but when I mount a scope it's all over the place. I've tried four different scopes including a new Hawke 4x32 and...

    New 397

    Does anyone sell such a spring or should I just look for one at the hardware store?

    New 397

    Does it dump all the air at 8 pumps? I have bought two 392's and one 397 in the past couple years and two out of three won't dump all the air past 7 pumps. Mine are the wood stock versions. I'm hoping the new ones work better.
