The Diana AR Conversion kits are here! I’ve really enjoyed developing these parts and have found our favorite backyard plinker in these little carbines. I’ve already set up a couple for friends and family as well. I think they are great and I hope you do to! Here is the installation video with more detail.

If you have any issues with these parts please reach out to me and give me a chance to fix it. I try to think of everything, but I do make mistakes. You can count on that, but you can also count on me to take responsibility and get it fixed or otherwise make it right. I don’t want anyone to think that I’m making perfect parts. I’m not. These are 3d printed parts. 3d printing is great for prototyping and not so much for manufacturing. They do, however, allow me to quickly design, build, improve, and sell stuff that folks want at great prices. I will continue to improve quality and upgrade our equipment and manufacturing methods. For now, I’m just a dude designing airgun parts in his kids’ bedroom, printing them in his garage, assembling them on his bedroom floor, selling them internationally, and trying to give his chickens a good life whilst remaining a free man, as much as it depends on him!

I’m very grateful for the opportunity to do all that! I’ll keep working hard, adding value wherever I can, and making great products at great prices!

Thanks for lookin’ y’all!

By popular demand, I’ve added a barrel band. This wasn’t my plan, but I’m only a man. I hope you’re a fan.

This is just a quick update on some things that I’ve been working on and some stock updates.

2240 Adjustable Stock Kits – These are finally back in stock, but I’m about to run out of the buttstocks soon. I have more coming in any day now… You can still buy the buffer tubes and get your MILSPEC buttstock somewhere else. When I get the next batch of buttstocks in there will be two options to choose from. Currently no ETA on this…

Diana Chaser Suppressors – These are back in stock. They went out of stock for a bit while I made some changes. They are now textured on the exterior, I’ve removed the helical insert, reduced the taper, added some laser engraving “FOR AIRGUNS ONLY MADE IN TEXAS, USA” and…. lowered the price!

1/2″ UNF Suppressors – I’ve made the same changes to the look and geometry of the 1/2″ UNF suppressor, but I’ve changed the inserts rather than remove them. They were stainless helical inserts that I would occasionally jack up and cause misalignment. Now they are solid-wall steel EZ Lok Inserts. They are more robust and take less time to install, allowing me to make a big improvement to our most popular item without raising the price!

QB78 Suppressors – So far these have been a disappointment. I received lots of requests for this suppressor, so I bought me a Beeman QB78 Deluxe from amazon and got to work. I made an adapter much like our 880 suppressor that worked great on my airgun. Unfortunately, it couldn’t even be installed on some others. At least not the ones who were willing to give feedback. Come to find out (with the help of a great customer who reached out on GTA), Beeman makes these airguns with two barrel sizes: 14mm and 15mm. Mine is 14mm. Others are 15mm. These may be dead in the water already, but I went ahead and made some in two sizes and added an option to select from 14 or 15mm adapters anyway.

Diana AR Conversion Parts – Coming very soon folks. Thanks for your patience. I’m just trying to get caught up before I add these to my workload. Expecting to get these out in the next couple of days.

This is just a quick update on the wood composite grips and pump handles. They can be a bit tricky to print, but they work! I’ve printed, sanded, and finished a few sets now. Check them out!

They are printed in a Polymer/Wood composite. It is 30% wood and 70% PLA plastic. The ones in the pictures above are stained with 3 coats of Minwax Dark Walnut stain and clear coated with Minwax Helsman Semi-Gloss Spar Urethane.

They are not as fine as solid wood parts of course, but I really like the blend of traditional and new technology. They would also be cheaper than wood, but would allow me to serve the folks who aren’t into black rifles. I would offer them unfinished only, as I don’t have the time to sand and finish these. I’m trying to train my chickens to help, but their lack of ambition… and hands are proving to be difficult obstacles to overcome…

The Diana AR Conversion parts are done (AR lower, Adjustable Stock, and Tri-Rail) and my plan is to release them next week. Please be patient with me.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I’ve gotten a lot of requests to make a suppressor for the Beeman QB78, 1085, and Chief II. I have a QB78 and noticed it’s very close to the 880 dimensionally so I worked something up and it worked out great. While I was at it I figured I should make an accessory mount as well. The suppressor should work for the QB78, 78S, 79, and 1085, but not the Chief II or other Beemans. The accessory mount will only work with the QB78 with wood stock as far as I can tell.

The suppressor adapter is much like our 880 suppressor and utilizes the same thread cap and suppressor as the 13XX, 1077, etc.

Our new grips for the Crosman airguns and PRod are finally here. They are simple and understated, but not to be underestimated. It took me a fortnight of fortnights, but now they look right and fit tight. They are solid and stolid and wont wriggle or giggle… outwardly. I may have gotten some brain-wires crossed in the making of these things.

They are compatible with the Crosman 1377, 1322, 2240, 2240XL, 2300, 1701, 1720, and Benjamin Marauder Pistol.

In other news, I’ve also released our Air Venturi Avenger Suppressors and Benjamin Sheridan Combo Scope Mounts. Check out all three in the links below.

Next product release will be the Crosman 2240 Forearms. I’m waiting on the hardware to come in before I list them.

Thanks for lookin’ y’all!

Coming Soon!

Our Crosman grips and 2240 forearms have been in the works for a while now and they’re almost here. I know they’ve been anticipated, because I’ve been inundated… with emails about them. The grips have been heavily iterated, opinionated, deliberated, and discriminated. The worst of the iterated were obliterated and eliminated. The best and most innovated of features were assimilated and integrated. I know grips can be subjective and debated. But I’m confident that these will be vindicated. Thank you if you participated! I’m sorry, I was inspired…ated.

Here’s a preview:

• 

• 

The forearm could include a picatinny rail, but it will likely be ugly and not quite allow for a comfortable grip. It can be done, and I have the model, so just say the word. But don’t dog on me for the ugliness. You’ve been warned. They will be very securely mounted with a screw securing it to the barrel band and the trigger guard. I’ll give more details on that later.

The grips are pretty plain. There’s no thumb shelf, ergonomical, anatomical, or uneconomical features. But I assure you. They will be comfortable, supportable, and affordable. I’ve added the honeycomb pattern(I know). Pretty soon I’ll add the honeycomb to our 13XX and 2240 suppressors and then the circle will be complete. Anywho, I’m so confident in these grips that I’ve incorporated my very own visage into the 3d prints. The exact imprint of my face will be on every grip as a sign of my confidence in the design and craftsmanship of each grip:

Coming very soon…

Merry Christmas and thanks for lookin’ y’all!

Sorry to blow up your mailbox. I’ve been busy. I’ll probably be radio silent for a bit closer to Christmas, through the New Year, and a while after that while I focus on the manufacturing side of things more than the design side. Anyway, I digress.

The Umarex Gauntlet suppressor is here. It’s printed in Polycarbonate, replaces the baffle clamshell thingamajiggy, and threads directly into the shroud. It works great, looks cool, and is cheap. What more could you ask for? Don’t answer that.

Here’s the cross-section for this one:

And for those who are still readin’. The ATF approved my Form 1 so that I can 3d print one silencer for my Hammerli TAC R1 rimfire .22. That is on the printer as I type this. I’d to make an interesting video on that early next year. Stay tuned.

Thanks for lookin’ y’all!
