But one question...   Posted: Sun Dec 25, 2011 7:15 pm Jr. Squirreler Veteran Member Joined: 12 Dec 2010 Posts: 419 Location: New York I have finally got my Disco .22! I can not be happier. I did already purchase a TKO Muzzle Break, which should be coming in about 3-5 days. Now I wanted to know if anyone knows of, or could make, a Rotating Clip as Crosman has made for the Marauder. If you could make one, I will be willing to pay.

There have been several companies making breeches to use the MRod clips but all seem to have run into difficulties in some form or other (not mechanical, business problems)....

I dunno. I got a disco .22 today too and love it. I am even fairly impressed with the trigger after getting ready for a real piece of junk trigger from reading reviews. It's better than any other airgun trigger I have. Next up chrono testing and possibly shimming (preloading) the hammer spring to get closer to advertised velocity with lead pellets. (Then I'm getting me a raccoon hide.)   Posted: Sun Dec 25, 2011 7:48 pm rsterne Moderator Joined: 15 Jan 2008 Posts: 2998 Location: Coalmont, BC Lighter trigger spring and do the 2-screw mod and you'll love the trigger.... I find the Disco to be only about 50 fps off advertised velocity with 14.3 gr. pellets.... Bob _________________ Dominion Marksman Silver Shield - 5890 x 6000 in 1976, and downhill ever since!

I was looking at these. However, you have to manually rotate the Clip, and it seems a little bit over priced. I mean, the Rotary clip is $66, and the muzzle brake was only $44!   Posted: Mon Dec 26, 2011 12:46 pm twalter Veteran Member Joined: 12 Jun 2011 Posts: 180 Location: East TN USA Those magazines are over rated in my opinion. I ended up getting the single shot channel for my marauder after a few out of the box malfunctions. _________________ Benjamin Marauder .25 cal scoped with Bushnell 4-16/40AO CF with Hill hand pump Gamo Hunter 220 .177 with CP 4-16/AO   Posted: Mon Dec 26, 2011 6:58 pm domer_pyle Senior Member Joined: 17 Sep 2009 Posts: 523 radar wrote: rsterne wrote: Lighter trigger spring and do the 2-screw mod and you'll love the trigger....

Stock setup mine started at 866 fps and climbed up 13 fps and back to starting velocity 14 shots into the string with Premiers. If you plan on shimming the stock spring you might be better off trying pellets a couple grains heavier to maintain shot count and keep your velocity from peaking and tapering off so quickly. A hammer spring from a 392/7 might be a good replacement. For power and it just looks like a better quality spring.   Posted: Mon Dec 26, 2011 7:16 pm radar Silver Status Member Joined: 13 Nov 2011 Posts: 1138 Location: Des Moines, Iowa, USA Im getting 800 to 860 840 average.

I suggest you machine your own rotary clip like this company and then let us know if the $66 is overpriced. You'll probably think it's a steal. _________________ My Critter Gitters .22 Crosman 140 (1955) .177 Crosman G1 (2009) .177 Crosman 1377 (2009) .177 Daisy 880 (2019) BB Daisy Red Ryder (2012) BB Daisy Buck (2019) BB Crosman 1600 (1980) BB Marksman 1010 (1979)   Posted: Tue Dec 27, 2011 9:43 am radar Silver Status Member Joined: 13 Nov 2011 Posts: 1138 Location: Des Moines, Iowa, USA It would be OK if it works, but it doesn't sound like it does.

No surprise there. I have seen videos on YouTube of the clip working, but I am still a little unsure. I just ordered Leapers High mounts, so maybe I wont need the clip. Who knows?!   Posted: Tue Dec 27, 2011 10:25 pm radar Silver Status Member Joined: 13 Nov 2011 Posts: 1138 Location: Des Moines, Iowa, USA Just remember the 50% defect rate on merchandise nowadays.... Anyways, ya, if the reason is clearance you should be OK. Mine aren't especially high and I can roll the pellets in OK, and I'm a klutz.   Posted: Wed Dec 28, 2011 9:28 am Jr. Squirreler Veteran Member Joined: 12 Dec 2010 Posts: 419 Location: New York radar wrote: Just remember the 50% defect rate on merchandise nowadays....

For some reason it takes me about 3 pellets just to get one in the breach. As you can tell, I am a klutz myself I got my Disco!
