Post this issue again because failed to convince my friend... and I won't afford a pinhole camera to check the barrels deep inside... so just post it for a quick answer and some solid evidence.
OK, then. Seems really over react at the rifled barrel things?If so, gonna trust you guys. I think he just too proud to be convinced then?Unhappy
Just like you guys. I am annoyed to chat with him, every time end up that he boast how powerful an AKM is, saying the 7.62 is over 10cm big... I try to explain that the 10cm big should be the case not the bullet on the top for 0.3 is nearly 7.62mm as I checked online. Seems like he just try to say how lame my and his air rifles are...so tired to convince him
Anyway, I am serious looking for an answer while you guys feels a trolling or something? Maybe I just should give up to chat with my bros about air rifle things because they refuse to study nor believe...Angry

I also try to stay out of things and let the forum flow, but i am getting a little annoyed with some of the stuff you are posting as well, If you keep it up you may not have access to this forum for much longer.

I am new here and have tried to be polite to everyone and not get involved in pre-existing issues. But I must say, CuteRabbit, some of your posts do not make sense in the context of this conversation and others appear to be all over the place.

While you managed to get a couple of air rifles because you don't require a license at this time (Unlike Australia) you should still consider a lot of us are licensed firearms holders or mix in these circles.

And if you come across here or IRL as a bit odd - this will create issues for you. This is especially so with the increased "fit and proper person" thing and the recent legislative changes affecting clubs. If you later want to get an FAL you will need to be a member of a club or have someone who has an FAL to vouch for you.

So in the nicest way I suggest you think before you post and be on the level with folks here.

EmbarrassedWell. Not really
The whole story is that my friend I mentioned above insist no rifled barrel in cheap air guns( he has a CR600 CO2). So I took my two rifles to show him. And this time he insist that's not rifle lines...? because it is straight...
We use flash light to look into it as deep as we and seems straight...
I said maybe the twist rate is very very super low so seems like straight... and He laughed loud...
And yes, it is not like pics of real gun rifle lines online.
Maybe lines are straight at the both ends but that makes no sense???

Do you just write stuff for attention?
Why would they make a barrel with strait rifling. It would be cheaper to put no rifling in and it would do the same thing.
How old are you cute rabbit, just out of a point of interest.

Not as likely to be ruined. My roadster wasn't a magium and it still killed scopes. It's about how hard it recoils. It had a 5mm washer at the back of the gas ram I took out which made it a bit of a forward shock.
Best bet is to either see what scopes other ppl have used that are good ( like in mercs review) or spend money on a higher quality scope. Which can easily be 3x what your junior cost you.
Start looking at scope reviews along with all the other air rifle stuff your learning.
