Update 7/25/21: AirForce TalonP Accessories

Update 7/25/21: AirForce TalonP, Condor, and Texan Accessories

The AirForce TalonP with adjustable stock, upgraded pistol grip, forearm with picatinny mount, suppressor, bipod, and high mount 4×32 scope.

I’ve been working on this for a while now and have finally come up with a few things I can feel good about. Some of the parts include a more ergonomic pistol grip, thicker forearm with picatinny rail, and a sleek adjustable buttstock. These should be compatible with the other Airforce PCP airguns of this platform.

The Adjustable Buttstock

The adjustable buttstock slips over the aluminum air cylinder. It is held in place by two steel non-marring nylon tipped set screws. It give you from a 10-1/2″ to 14″ LOP. It is printed in two parts and bolted together with two stainless socket head cap screws and nuts.

The Forearm

The improved forearm is longer, wider, and taller. It feels better in the hand and looks less like a sausage than the stock forearm. I’ve also added a picatinny style rail for a bipod, laser, flashlight, etc. It will come with a longer countersunk screw to replace the shorty that secured the stock sausage… I mean, forearm.

The Pistol Grip

The stock pistol grip isn’t terrible, but it definitely had room for improvement. I’ve made the new grip more ergonomic. It will install using the same screw that secured the stock pistol grip.

I’m trying to get plenty of them printed before I list them, but expect these to be available very soon! Thanks for lookin! -Terry

Crosman Adjustable Stock

CROSMAN 22XX/13XX ADJUSTABLE STOCK

Here’s a little preview of my latest project….

This 2240XL features our 1/2″ UNF Polycarbonate silencer, Dr. Murfee mount, folding bipod, 4×32 compact scope with high rise rings, and an adjustable 6 position stock. The stock adapter and buffer tube assembly can be seen in more detail below:

The buffer tube is 3D printed in ABS and all the other parts are steel. This particular setup allows for an 11″ to 14.5″ length of pull.

My son, Beaux, loves to shoot the Daisy Buck, but he can shoot much more accurately than the airgun can. I gave him this airgun set up at 11″ LOP and we saw a MAJOR improvement in accuracy and the airgun is actually easier for him to handle than the Daisy. Unfortunately, I had to take it away after he tried to take out a bird that landed on our fence…

It’ll be a bit before I start selling these. When I do it’ll be a complete kit at a great price.

Thanks y’all!

DIANA CHASER SILENCER

Diana Chaser Pistol with 3d printed silencer

DIANA CHASER THREADED SILENCER

I have a lot of new parts to release, but I couldn’t wait anymore on this one. This silencer is printed in Polymax Polycarbonate plastic. It takes 8 hours to print just one, but we get a much tougher product in the end. Some things that I’ve done differently with this one is include an expansion chamber at the muzzle, reduced ID baffles nearer the muzzle, and incorporated a stainless steel helical insert for very reliable threading/unthreading. This makes the Diana Chaser Pistol neighbor-friendly without affecting accuracy or muzzle velocity. Here’s a look at the inside:

Diana Chaser Silencer Designed and Modelled on Autodesk Fusion360

In this video I install the silencer and test fire the Chaser with and without it. I just got a new mic, so this video actually ALMOST does it justice. Also, you may notice another part I have in the works for the Chaser.

UPDATE! The suppressors are for sale HERE. The Barrel Bands are for sale HERE.

Thanks for looking!

Winter Storm Uri

Hey y’all. I’m writing from my phone. We’ve been without power for a couple of days now down here in Texas. We’ve made coffee in the fireplace, cooked zucchini on a crawfish burner, cooked bacon on the barbecue pit, burned two truckloads of wood, and dabbled in some plumbing in the attic. We’ve had lots of help from family and friends!

I placed a warning on the webpage that we may not be able to fulfill orders for a while and still got 30 or so orders!

As I write this, the power is on and has been for an hour, but the powers that be are conducting rotating blackouts so we expect that it will not last. The good news is that we’ve been able to fulfill all of our orders up until this point!

We will continue to fulfill orders as long as we have power. Thank you for your patience and thank you for your support!

God bless y’all!

Crosman 1077 3D Printed Silencer

CROSMAN 1077 REPEATAIR SILENCER

Our latest Silencer is for the Crosman 1077 RepeatAir. This one really worked out nicely. It uses the same silencer and thread cap as the M4-177 with a custom adapter designed exclusively for the 1077. I just made this video with my eldest son. We had fun with it. In the video I show off the adapter CAD model, detail the installation, test fire it with and without the silencer, and say, “uuh” over 50 times. I’m workin’ on that last part. Thanks for lookin!

Crosman PFM16 Silencer

Crosman PFM16 Silencer Installed

CROSMAN PFM16 SILENCER

I’ve completed the design and testing of my latest Silencer for the Crosman PFM16. The Crosman PFM16 is a full metal CO2 powered Semi-Auto BB Pistol. It has a nice heft to it and a compact and sleek design. I tried to keep the design similarly compact and sleek with matching aesthetics.

3D Model Snapshot

Given that this silencer is so much more compact than our others I’m amazed at how affective it is. I’ve used a 60 degree cone-shaped 7 baffle design like in our Crosman 13XX, Daisy 415, and Daisy 426 silencers, but in a much smaller package. Even with the more compact design it is equally, if not more, affective than our others.

Section View Snapshot from 3D Model

I’ve also uploaded a little video to YouTube with installation details and a firing test. I use a pellet trap and iPhone for the video which isn’t super helpful for really hearing the sound difference. You can check out the reviews for the Daisy Powerline 415 Silencer to see what others have to say about our silencer design.

Crosman 2240 Suppressor

Crosman 2240 Silencer

Crosman 2240 Suppressor

Just a quick update on my latest projects. I’ve wrapped up the Daisy Red Ryder scope mount design and have moved on to the Crosman 2240. I have received a few requests to make a Suppressor for the Crosman DPMS SBR Full-Auto. I finally got one and will be working on that soon. I’m also taking a look at the Crosman PFM16 and Umarex SA10.

The 2240 Suppressor is very simple. It requires you to remove the stock front sight by just tapping it off with a hammer and piece of wood. Then you just press the suppressor on by hand with the front sight aligned. The only unique feature is the integrated front sight post. It is very similar to the 1322 Silencer on the inside in that it is round and has cone-shaped baffles.

The 2240 barrel has a flat ground on it that I used as an alignment feature for the front sight. I’m currently testing the Suppressor with various front sight post heights. I’m thinking that I might make it a bit on the high side. That way, it’ll cover close range shooting(if that’s your thing), but it could also be sanded down for longer range shooting. A benefit of the common ABS plastic blend used in 3D printing is that it dissolves in acetone. You can sand down the front sight post and use a paintbrush to coat the abraded surface with acetone to give it a smooth finish.

The Crosman Scope Mounts have really proven to be a hit. I didn’t imagine that they would be so popular. I’m grateful for all the feedback. The mounts are self-aligning on the 13XX and on the 2240. Check out the Crosman 2240 with the Suppressor, Scope Mounts, and Hawkeye Reflex Sight mounted below:

Crosman 2240 Silencer Mounts and Red Dot installed on the 2240

It may not look like it, but the cap and CO2 cartridge can be removed without removing the suppressor.

Thanks for readin’ ya’ll!

Daisy Red Ryder Scope Mount

Red Ryder Picatiny Scope Mount with Scope Installed

My full-time job is in support of NASA and they’ve been under a continuing resolution until the government decides on the budget for FY2021. Long story short, I have not been working any overtime. This means some long overdue airgun projects are finally getting done. One of the earliest requests I received after creating the Little Buck Rail was to create a picatinny mount for the Red Ryder. There were already some out there so I didn’t make it a priority. With all this extra time on my hands I’ve come up with some ideas to set this scope base apart from the others. First of all, it will be a better value, secondly it will be a picatinny to afford you more optic options, and lastly it will be adjustable so that you can still raise or lower the rear open sight post. Take a look at what I’ve gotten done so far.

The adjustable part is still in the works, but I’m making good progress. Here is a view of the current concept:

The latest concept is slotted to allow you to slide the mount forward or backwards, as needed, to adjust the elevation. The trick is going to be getting the range right. Should I go with Daisy’s recommendation of 16.4 ft to out to 30 ft? 16 ft just seems way too close to me. Especially for folks putting scopes and red dots on this thing. I’ll keep testing it and see. I’ll update in another post when I’ve settled on the range. Keep in mind that I cant make it an infinite range. The longer I make the slot the weaker it will be and eventually you’ll have a whole lot of plastic hanging in the air over the butt. Feel free to comment and let me know your thoughts.

UPDATE 10/29/2020: I’ve completed this design and have listed them for sale here: https://buck-rail.com/product/daisy-red-ryder-picatinny-scope-mount/

Daisy Powerline 408 Silencer Design

Daisy Powerline 408 Silencer with Dovetail Scope Mount

Daisy Powerline 408 Silencer Design

I received a request a while back to make a Silencer for the Daisy Powerline 408. I went out and bought one to have a look and see what I can do. I messed with it here and there for a while and finally came up with something I feel good about. I replaced the whole stock plastic part covering the barrel with a 3d printed one with a built-in suppressor and optics mount. I also was able to keep the front sight post if you prefer to shoot with open sights.

I started out by measuring and modelling the stock shroud. As you can see in the picture below there was a lot of features to get right. I lucked up and didn’t have to spend a lot of time optimizing it for 3d printing. I printed the shroud and installed all the guts without issue. Next, I added a printable silencer to the end and tested it out. If you’d like to check that out you can see it on YouTube HERE or look at my previous blog post.

I really like the 408. It’s nice to shoot pellets with a rifled barrel and CO2. Considering the decent accuracy you can get I though it might be nice to add an optics mount as well. My first few attempts were not great. The optics would clamp on the sharp edge of the dovetail rather than the grooves under the sharp edges. It would clamp really well, but deform the sharp plastic edges. Also, it was a challenge to make it look sleek and like it belonged on the gun. I eventually found a way to make the 3d printed dovetail functional and look like it belongs there. See below:

Finally, I added some of the little cosmetic details to tie it all together and printed the final prototype.

Final prototype 3d printed with ABS plastic.

These things take a long time to print(8hrs/piece) on an FDM printer at .2mm layers and would be pretty costly for a 3d printed part. I most likely will have them printed in PA12 Nylon by an American company given that the cost is comparable if done in bulk. Nylon is extremely tough and the SLS(Selective Laser Sintering) process leaves a very smooth finish. Here’s a little preview of a prototype that I’ve had printed in Nylon using SLS. When I finally put these up for sale they will have a similar finish.

Hopefully I’ll have them ready for early to mid-November. Thanks for reading!
