Howdy folks. Just a quick update on the Benjamin Marauder Pistol Kits and some newly listed items…

P-Rod Kits

---

I’ve listed the P-Rod kits, but have not put them in stock yet. I’m still working on the instructional video and waiting on some fasteners to come in. Folks should be able to sign up to be notified when they are released now. Check out that listing here: P-Rod Tac Conversion Kit

It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything on YouTube. I decided to throw up a quick preview of the P-Rod Kit. Check out this teaser video I made from the install footage:

Is the video not working? Follow this link instead: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3WVr1TBbVrM

The P-Rod release will be first come first serve. I don’t have many of the triggers and restocking will be based on how quickly I can get more from Crosman. The last trigger assembly order took ages…

Also, I’m working on a threaded rear pic adapter that will allow folks to quickly attach and detach pic clamping stocks to the Notos, P-Rod and other kits that have the threaded tube receiver. This was, kind of, a customer suggestion. Here’s a couple of pics of the first prototype on the new P-Rod kit:

The prototype worked out great and I’ll very likely be adding these to the product lineup soon.

New Product from DonnyFL

---

I just listed a few DonnyFL RYU suppressors in .177/.22 caliber.

Check those out here: RYU QD Suppressor

If you’d like to see us carry other calibers, sizes, or options just let us know. I only have four of the RYUs for now.

New Product from Saber Tactical

---

I just listed the 34mm clamping bottle adapters from Saber Tactical. I added these because they work well with the Notos, JTS Airacuda, Marauder, and many more airguns. If you’s like to see us carry the larger bottle adapters or anything else from Saber Tactical let us know and I’ll see what I can do. Saber Tactical 34mm Clamping Bottle Adapter

New Grip Options

---

Did you notice the grip on the P-Rod pic up there^? It’s a Magpul MOE K2. I just got a bunch in and I’ll be offering those in black and FDE. I’ll also be offering their larger K2 XL grips. These grips all have beavertails so you’ll have to be careful to ensure they are compatible. They will work on the Airacuda grip adapter, Beeman 2027/2028 Grip Adapter, Marauder Pistol Grip Adapter, and the upcoming Stormrider Grip Adapter. It’s also possible to fit these to the Diana Chaser Grip adapters with a little bit of filing.

Y’all have been keeping us VERY busy lately. Thank you very much for your business and for your support. We’ll keep working hard to earn it.

Sincerely,

Terry Harman

Just a quick update on some new products I just added, items back in stock, and products coming down the line from Buck Rail.

Upgraded Stock Adapters

I told y’all a while back about the new stock adapters I was working on for the Crosman 1377/1322 and 2240 and the Diana Chaser, Airbug, and Bandit. They add the capability of mounting an aluminum MILSPEC AR Extension Tube and the UTG Side Folder. The Crosman adapters work with the OEM airgun. The Diana adapter only works with our tactical conversion kits. I finally have the finished product in hand, but in limited quantities. Check them out here:

Crosman 13XX Adapter
Cosman 2240 Adapter
Diana Adapter

Back in Stock

Thanks for all the encouragement regarding my last blog post. It was unexpected and much appreciated. We’re starting to settle in a bit and I’m playing catch up trying to get things back in stock. I just put more of the following in stock:

UX Notos Grip Adapters
Beeman Underlever UNI Adapters
Cosman 1377/1322 UNI Adapters

Back in stock soon:
– Magpul Black MOE Buttstocks
– 1/2-20 UNF Crosman Adapters
– 2240 Stock Tubes and Adapters
– Beeman Marshall Carbines (within 2 weeks)

UNF suppressors are selling faster than I can manufacture them. More trickle in everyday. If you sign up to be notified when they are back in stock, get a notification, go to order, and find they are out of stock still it’s because they were only back in stock for a short time before they were sold out again. This system is automated so you’ll just need to sign up again. I’m working on it, y’all. Thank you for your patience.

Upcoming

The following items are in hand and will be listed very soon:
– New Diana Stormrider Grip Adapters
– P-Rod Tactical Kits (Only 20 Trigger Assemblies from Crosman)

I just got the new UX Origin prototype today. I’ll post pics of it installed soon.

Thank you for your business, the opportunity to serve you, and thank you for your support. We’ll keep working hard to earn it!

Sincerely,

Terry Harman

A Personal Note

---

I’ve been taking care of my father lately and that’s taking up most of my time and will be taking up a lot of my time for the foreseeable future. My friend Chris (customer service), my sister Julie (order fulfillment), and my oldest son Atticus (post-processing), will be filling in where I’m slacking. Please be patient with us while we work through this.

There’s much more that I have in mind to do. Lord willing, we’ll make it happen. Thank you for your business and thank you for your support. It’s not taken for granted and we’ll keep working hard to earn it and keep it!

Sincerely,

Terry

DonnyFL QD Adapters

---

We’ve just added quick disconnect suppressor adapters from DonnyFL. These will allow you to turn your Tatsu, Tanto, Sumo, Koi, etc. into QD suppressors. Check those out here: Old Mod QD Adapters Not only are these just plain cool, but this will also help to ensure your suppressor is clocked the same every time you reinstall or move from airgun to airgun. Speaking of airgun to airgun, we’ve also added the threaded QD adapters for if you have multiple airguns that you’d like to use the same QD suppressor on. Check those out here: Male QD Adapter Only

We’ll also be adding the new JTS Airacuda threaded adapters and their new Ryu and Yokozuna suppressors. Stay tuned for that.

Checkout Changes

---

From now on our customers will be required to enter a phone number at checkout. In the early days I required phone numbers. I got a few complaints here and there so I eventually made it optional. That has created some issues for us. We need a phone number for international orders for customs clearance and we need phone numbers so that we can call folks and confirm an order if fraud warnings are triggered by our payment processor, authorize.net. If you’re in the US and not comfortable giving your phone number you can enter random digits. If the order is suspicious (mismatched billing information, etc.) and we cannot reach you we will cancel the order and refund. If it is an international order and an invalid phone number is given we will cancel the order and refund. We do not sell your information and use it in no other way than fulfilling orders. Thank you for your understanding!

UX Origin

---

The Umarex Origin Tactical design is well underway. I already have the handguard dialed in (It’s an Avenger Handguard for two tubes instead of three) and I’ll place an order for grip adapter prototypes soon.

P-Rod Kits

---

I have the first P-Rod prototypes in hand. There are some minor changes to be made, but I was able to hand work this one to get it fitted up. It’s a big improvement over the original design. It is more durable, more functional, and has a much improved finish. Just need to remove a little material here and there, order prototypes, test etc. and we’ll be good to go.

A Joke With Promise

---

I was disappointed when we started the Beeman Marshall Carbine kits and got word from Beeman that they would have to sell us the Marshalls with the chonky wood grips installed. I moved forward anyway and figured we’d find a use for the grips. As our collection built up my sister made a joke that we should turn them into bookends and sell them. As I tend to do sometimes I took the joke very seriously and gave it a shot. I posted some pictures on social media and a friend of ours gave them a name. I present to you Buck Rail’s Buckends:

This will help us keep the price for the Beeman Carbines down, produce less waste, and offer a unique product for the well read airgunner. I already have a few of the plates cut, bent and anodized. I’m just waiting on some threaded inserts and screws to come in and I’ll be ready to list these.

Speaking of the well read, thank you for taking the time to read this little newsletter. If you’ve made it this far, this part is for you. For personal reasons, I’ll be slowing down a bit for the rest of the year. I’ll finish up a few of the projects that I’m currently working on and then focus on keeping up with manufacturing and order fulfillment. I expect I’ll need to conserve my energy for this holiday season anyway. Early next year I’ll be focused on moving my family and the business to a place that will allow us a little more room to work with as both family and business have outgrown the little space we’re in.

I still have a lot of big plans and ideas that I’d like to bring to market. I’ll keep chipping away at it. Thank you for your business, your support, and for the opportunity to serve you. It’s not taken for granted and we’ll keep working hard to earn it.

Sincerely,

Terry Harman

Notos Kits

---

Howdy folks. The release date for the Umarex Notos Kit will be this Friday, 9/29. I plan on putting them in stock at 9am-ish Central time. We only have a limited number. I have more on order. If they go out of stock it won’t be for long. The FDE handguard will come out later. No date on that yet.

I just got done posting the listing, pictures, installation video etc. You can view that here: https://buck-rail.com/product/umarex-notos-ar-conversion-kit/

You can also sign up there to be notified when it is put in stock.

P-Rod Kits

---

I finally got the Marauder trigger assemblies in from Crosman. I like the Notos kit so much that I decided to take the same approach with the P-Rod. I’ve redesigned the grip adapter to receive metal AR extension tubes. Like the Notos grip adapter, it will be made from commercial-grade fused PA12 Nylon. It will accept the metal UTG Side Folder and Beavertail grips as well. I don’t have the protypes in hand yet, but here’s a little preview from the CAD model:

Diana Stormrider Kits

---

The Stormrider kits are getting a similar update, as well. The new grip adapter will not replace the old style. It will just be offered as another option. I just got this prototype in and it fits great and feels great. I especially like the option of using grips with beavertails. Check it out:

Tube Adapters

---

While I’m on this UTG Side Folder and AR Tube kick I decided to make adapters for the Crosman 13XX and 2240 line of airguns. I have seen a few out there, but none like the ones I’m working on. They will be a two part design that utilizes the same technique as our stock tubes and rear pic adapters. You’ll replace the hammer spring retention cap with a machined adapter and add a nylon threaded adapter that will clamp to the air tube with a screw threaded into the machined adapter. Confused yet? It’s going to be great. Another unique feature of this tube adapter is that it will look like it’s part of the airgun. Not just slapped on as an afterthought. It is also offset to keep it from protruding into the grip area. I’ll post pics as soon as I have the working prototypes in hand.

I’ll also have this style of adapter available for the Diana Chaser, Bandit, and Airbug soon!

MLok Mounting Pic Rails

---

I just released a few 21mm Pic Rails that are compatible with our MLok handguards. I 3d print them in black ASA. The lengths coincide with a number of adjacent mlok slots. They are made to cover two, three, or four adjacent full-length mlok slots. They come with the SAE screws and t-nuts needed for mounting and at a budget-friendly price. Check those out here: Picatinny Accessory Rails

Crosman Parts

---

I’ve been surprised that our Crosman parts have sold so well. They can take a lot of time for me to get more. I will be placing larger orders so that we can keep these in stock. We just put more power adjusters in stock. I just got some 24″ .177 and .22 barrels in as well. I will be cutting down some 177s for folks who are having a hard time finding the 14.6″ .177 barrels. I’ll update here when they are listed. I’ve also just added the fiber optic front sights for 7/16 barrels here: Crosman Fiber Optic Front Sight

Let me know if there are any other parts you want to see stocked and I’ll see what I can do.

Upcoming Projects

---

Umarex SA10 – I’m working on a pretty slick optics mount for the Umarex SA10. It will be fixed to the barrel and will not move with the blowback slide.

Walther CP88 and family – I’m working on an optics mount that replaces the rear sight post for the Walther CP88. It should be compatible with a host of other airguns as well. JC, at Airgun Detectives, will be making a video on that soon.

Umarex Origin – I’m 99% certain that the next AR chassis kit I make will be for the Umarex Origin. That one has been a long time coming and I think it’s finally time.

and so much more….

Thank You!

---

Until next time, thank you for your business and thank you for your support and all the encouragement over the years. It’s not taken for granted and I’ll continue to work hard to earn it.

Sincerely,

Terry

Umarex Notos and Artemis PP750

---

I’ve completed the Umarex Notos and PP750 Tactical Conversion Kits. The Grip Adapter is made in the USA using PA12 Fused Nylon. The Side Folder and Extension Tube are made in the USA UTG Pro. The stock option will be Made in the USA Magpul MOE only or no stock. You’ll be able to choose from with or without Cheek Riser. If you want to use the OEM iron sights you won’t want a riser installed. Folks who want to mount a scope, especially with high rings to clear expanded mags, will need that riser. The handguard is mlok, but I’ll also be releasing an affordable, customizable, pic rail kit at the same time. I make the handguard myself from ASA.

I just ordered 40 of the grip adapters. A few of those will go to our friends and we should have about 35 available for the first run. I usually do more on a first run, but if they don’t sell it puts me in a bind. The JTS kit was a BIG punch in the gut. I’m trying something different with these as I’d like to not go broke, if I can help it.

Semi-Auto to Full Auto Conversion Kit

---

I’ve had this idea for a while, but it’s always been on the backburner as it’s just for my own enjoyment. I had a little time recently to throw something together. Its a kit that uses a small DC gearmotor, cam, and motor controller to fire a semi-auto airgun. The rate of fire is set with a potentiometer. In this particular iteration I’m using a 400 rpm gear motor, but it could just as easily be a 1000 rpm motor if the airgun can cycle that fast. I already had a Hatsan Sortie that I don’t shoot much so I started with that. This is the first “working” prototype. It’s a work in progress. Spoiler alert, it jams a lot.

Is the YouTube embed not working in this email? Try this link https://youtube.com/shorts/he0sCk76IpA

I’ll likely do the same thing for a Benjamin Semi-Auto Marauder next. Eventually I’ll want to move up to a Bin Tac B&W S45. Stay tuned for that.

Crosman Products

---

I’ve just listed some Crosman parts and I have more on the way. So far, we have the following available at great prices, with great service, fast free shipping and SMALL quantities:

LPA MIM Rear Sight for the steel breech
14.6 inch Crosman Barrel in .22 Caliber
Steel Breech in .177 Caliber
Power Adjusters for the 2240 etc.

Price Increases

---

I know I know. You came here expecting a sale and I tell you we’re raising prices. There is indeed a one-time big Buck Rail sale coming. I’ll tell you about that next. Many of our 3d printed items are printed in a material called ABS. It’s a great material and has served us well. There is another material that is much like ABS, but has better UV resistance, called ASA. I’ve wanted to switch to ASA for a long time, but I knew it was going to be a big undertaking with over 40 machines running 24/7 and over 100 print variations. Recently, we got news from our supplier that we weren’t going to be able to acquire any ABS for two months. That forced my hand. I put on my man-britches and made the switch. The product will stand up to the outdoors better and the finish will be much improved on many of our accessories. The downfall, it costs three times as much. Don’t worry, I’m not raising prices 300%. The material is a small part of the cost for a lot of our items. The increase will be closer to about 20% on our items that were formerly printed in ABS. The UNF suppressors and other Polycarbonate and MJF Nylon items will not be affected.

Flat Dark Earth

---

Another benefit of switching to ASA is that I found a beautiful Flat Dark Earth ASA that matched Magpul FDE. It’s even pricier, but it looks amazing. If y’all are interested in this let me know in the comments. What would you like to see in FDE?

The Big Buck Rail Sale

---

It’s actually not a Labor Day Sale. I want to keep prices low all the time and not play with people’s minds. The reason for the sale is so that y’all can buy up whatever ABS parts you’re are on the fence about before I raise prices. Just a show of good faith to the folks who’ve supported us over the years. Starting September 3rd and running all the way to September 8th all ABS items will be 20% off. Price increases will take affect on September 9th. If you love me, please don’t tell too many folks about it. I’m already maxxed out and I don’t want to get overrun. I also want our loyal customers to be able to get what they’re looking for. If something goes out of stock I’ll be working to restock it ASAP.

Thank you

---

Speaking of loyal customers, this newsletter is going out to 2000+ folks. I’m not trying to be too sappy, but that makes me real happy. Parts need to get churned out, I sometimes get burned out. I hope y’all are knowin’, your support keeps me goin’. Sorry, I’m done…

…Just havin’ fun,

– Terry

Diana Airbug Suppressors Are Here

We had close to 100 folks subscribed to the Diana Airbug suppressors and I somehow broke the back-in-stock notifier. So here is your notification! They are back… and they are different. I know not everyone will love the changes, but the functionality has been much improved. The fitment has been made more reliable, the finish dramatically improved, and it is now secured to the barrel with two set screws. Compatible with our UNI suppressors and thread protector.

Much of these changes were driven by customer feedback. I hope you like it as much as we do. The above airgun is my daughter’s and it has been well used.

I’m trying a new stock idea as well. What do you think? This style allows for much more customization in LOP, Carbine Tube or AR308 Tube, Side Folder or No, Fixed or Adjustable stocks, Milspec or commercial, and so on… It will be compatible with the Airbug, Bandit, and Chaser airguns and their non-US counterparts.

Thank you for your business and thank you for your support! It’s not taken for granted and we’re working hard to earn it.

Sincerely,

Terry

Just a quick update. I’ve just listed a couple of new products and have some project updates. Let me tell you about it.

---

Black Arts Design

We’re now offering Air Venturi Avenger Barrel bands from Black Arts Design. Gauge covers will be listed soon as well. David is a 3d printing wizard and his designs are top notch. I 3d print aerospace parts professionally with machines that cost over $400k and can tell you confidently that these are the smoothest FDM printed parts I’ve ever seen. Check those out here: B.A.D. Avenger Barrel Bands

M14x1.25 Suppressors

I’ve made quite a few of these suppressors for customers here and there when I have time for custom work. I figured I might as well just list them. I personally don’t have any airguns that use this thread pattern, but I’ve had customers use these on the AGN Uragan 2 and other high end PCPs. I have a bunch of .122/.22 caliber and a few .30 calibers. .25 cals are coming soon as well. Check those out here: M14X1.25 Suppressors

Crosman and Benjamin Airguns

Buck Rail has recently become an authorized repair center for many Crosman and Benjamin Airguns. This is great news for a few reasons. The obvious one is that Buck Rail will be able to do warranty work on your Crosman and Benjamin airguns. This also means we’ll be able to offer Crosman parts for the 2240 and 13XX including barrels, steel breeches, etc. along with the aftermarket parts we already offer and with Buck Rail service. The part that I’m most excited about though… This means the Benjamin P-Rod tactical conversion kit is happening soon. The kit requires that you remove the grip frame and trigger group and replace it with the very crisp trigger found on the Benjamin Marauder. Here’s a few previews from when I was prototyping that kit.

Seneca Big Bores

I’ve been working to develop a solid tactical conversion kit for the Seneca Dragon Claw and Recluse. Whether or not the kits will be sold alone or by Buck Rail is yet to be determined. I won’t be manufacturing the parts, as I’m at max capacity. It will likely end up being sold by CAP Arms on their CAP Dragons, but I thought y’all might like to see how that’s coming along.

Umarex Notos and Artemis PP750

I’ve just started working on a kit that will be compatible with the Umarex Notos and Artemis PP750. I’m taking a little different approach with these. It will be compatible with Milspec buffer tubes and AK side folders like the Seneca kit above. Now that we are reselling for Leapers we can make that more affordable to our customers. The price will likely be close to our other kits, but it will have a metal tube and side folder. Check it out! This is the first prototype.

Do you like the grip? Me too. I liked them so much that I reached out to Ergo Air to become a reseller so that we can offer them to our customers as well. They will likely be an upgrade option on some of our tactical kits and will be sold individually as well. Stay tuned for that!

That’s all I’ve got for now. Thank you for your business and thank you for your support! It’s not taken for granted and I’m working hard to earn it.

Sincerely,

Terry Harman

P.S. The 13XX, Underlever, and Avenger UNI adapters are all on order and only a couple weeks out!

Howdy Folks,

It’s been a while. I’m still not quite back to business as usual, but I have been busy with the business, as usual. I know a lot of folks have been waiting for us to release the JTS Airacuda Tactical Conversion Kit. I wanted to wait until I had the MAX kit ready as well, but it’s going to be a bit before I get some more design time. The kit for the JTS Airacuda base model is now available to ship. Check it out!

In other news

We now offer Diana Chaser Pistols in .177 and .22

I’ve also listed the pistols with tactical kits preinstalled. Instead of 3d printing these in my garage I have them made in industrial grade fused Nylon PA12 for a higher quality finish and higher strength. The kit includes chassis, grip, buttstock, suppressor, and 3 rotary mags. Check that out HERE.

I told y’all that I listed the Beeman Marshall Carbine kits in the last newsletter. I’ve now added the side folder option to those as well. We install the kits, clean the barrel, fill it, and run some lead through it to ensure it’s not a dud before shipping. Check those out HERE.

I’ve assembled a kit for replacing the spring roll pin in the 1377/1322 etc. Check that out HERE. It’s made up of off the shelf items, but conveniently bundled so that you don’t have to track the parts down yourself. I’ve also listed the parts you will need if you’re going to do it yourself. You can get the parts at your local hardware store. I’m only offering this because it has been a common request. I will be assembling a washer kit as well to take up the slack in the pump arm.

I’m phasing out Chinese buttstocks. We have a lot of good Made in USA options now:

– UTG Pro S3
– UTG Pro S4
– Magpul MOE
– Magpul Cheek Riser

We’ve added some more DonnyFL products. Check those out HERE.

Our friend Jason Hogueison requested a couple of barrel bands for his Kral Puncher Knight and NP-03 and loaned me his airguns to take measurements and test parts. I hade a few of the bands printed in Fused Nylon and have those listed as well. Check out Jason’s website HERE.

I’ve replaced our original direct fit Akela/Kratos Suppressor with an adapter for our UNI Suppressor. Check that out HERE.

I’m working with our polymer filament supplier to develop a Flat Dark Earth ABS filament. This will make it possible for us to offer many of our products in FDE. Hopefully the color comes out right. Stay tuned on that.

We have quite a few things out of stock right now. Part of that is high demand and part of that is bad management. I’m working on the bad management part. I’m not keen on raising prices, so I’m trying to get creative. These are problems I’m happy to have. Bear with me, y’all.

Thank you for your business, thank you for your support and the opportunity to serve y’all. I don’t take it for granted.

Sincerely,

Terry

P.S. Baby and family are happy and healthy. Thank you for all the kind words, folks.
