Q: |
How should I
send my airgun? |
|
A: |
You can ship your airgun to me
via UPS, FedEx or USPS well
packaged and insured. A Plano
gun case inside a tight fitting
cardboard box is the best way to
protect your airgun during
shipping. They can be bought
online for around $20.00. Do not
use packing peanuts. If you send
your rifle with packing peanuts
there will be a $30.00 packaging
fee and I will ship your airgun
back in a Plano gun case. DO NOT
REQUIRE A SIGNATURE FOR
DELIVERY. I may not be here to
sign when your rifle is
delivered and it will come back
to you untuned.

ADDRESS AND PHONE NUMBER.

Q: |
How should I pay for the tune? |
|

All payments must be made in full when I
finish tuning your gun.

What if my airgun needs repairs? |

parts in your airgun THAT ARE NOT
INCLUDED IN THE TUNE, I will contact you
immediately to discuss options and
costs.

there a warranty offered to
ensure my tune will not fail? |
|
A: |

one full year from the service
date.
|
|
Q: |
Are you
qualified to tune my airgun? |
|
A: |
I have worked
on machines all my life. My degree in
Engineering was earned in 1982. I have
over three decades of experience in
cutting edge mechanical technology. I
found a love for airguns and endeavor to
enhance their performance and
reliability for myself and the spring
gun community. Honesty, quality and service
are what drive my business.
|
|
Q: |
Will a tune affect the pellet
velocity of my airgun? |
|
A: |
Yes. Some guns may see a slight
increase in velocity and some
may see a decrease. The thing I
try to achieve by tuning your airgun is consistency. I try to make the gun shoot
exactly the same every time. To do this,
I tighten up the tolerances of the moving parts inside the power plant. This causes more
friction which may cause a loss in
velocity. But ask yourself, does a paper target care if it is hit at 700 fps or 750 fps?
The answer is no. You want the pellet to
hit the same point every time. This can not be done with a loose and inconsistent gun.
Ask yourself again, does small game care
if it is taken with a pellet traveling at 700 fps or 750 fps? The answer again is
no. You want the pellet to hit the vital
organ you are aiming for. The numbers on a chronograph that really mean something are
Extreme Spread and Standard Deviation.
Velocity means nothing if it is not consistent. Accuracy is everything.
