Where to find parts for Walther LG300

I have a really nice LG300 and need to know where I can get some parts for it. I need some o-rings and the front cylinder/barrel carrier.

Any help appreciated.

All the above are quite true, and I would only add that the AR20 does not come with front weights on the barrel and you will more than likely need them for 10M use. The gun without them, shoots more like a sporter. It really needs the extra up front weight for serious target work. This is a distinct...

Paypal is definitely anti gun, and I don't use them anymore than I have to because of it. They try to push their political agenda instead of just doing business as they should, and keep their views to themselves, as most of us do in business. Don't get too worried about counterfeit USPS money orders...

I'd be interested in hearing from someone who's actually had moisture problems from using a hand pump. I've looked around, and I'm not trying to be obstinate, but no one seems to have actually had the problem, just heard about it.

Hand pumps and some thoughts

Most you seasoned PCP guys already know this, but for the newly initiated guys here's a few notes on using a hand pump to fill your rifle cylinder. I am lucky to work where I can get an air tank filled any time I want to, but it still involves taking the tank to work and in and out of the plant to g...

Anschutz air cylinder questions

As I've mentioned I have an almost perfect older air cylinder dated 5/98. What I am thinking of doing is disassembling the cylinder to inspect it's interior for corrosion. The outside is perfect with no leaks or any visible problems. I was wondering about inspecting it and continue to use it, or jus...

here it went from filling the cylinder and it's slightly warm to the touch, and ambient temp went from 15F to 68F over a couple of days. inside the garage it probably was more like 40F to 65F.

Anschutz air cylinder observations

This is my first pcp rifle, so bear with me being kind of ignorant of the quirks of this type of gun. My original air cylinder has a date of 5/98, and I'm still up in the air about using it, so I bought a new one. Just for info, it came from Champions Choice (a great place to deal with fantastic peo...

Having owned a boat load of custom .22's in my day, I can say a couple of things right off the bat. One is, I'll never be the owner of a 10X part, and two is, that you are a much better builder than they are, by a long shot!! I've only seen one other completely custom rifle with that many problems. ...

From what I've been able to tell, the 5/98 date cylinders were among the first ever made by Anschutz for a pcp gun. They were long before the recall, which I'm guessing were cylinders made in the 2004-2006 time frame. There is actually no discernable serial # on the cylinder. There is, however, a co...

Anschutz 2002CA air tank question

I just bought an AN2002 pcp rifle and the air tank that came with the rifle is dated 5/98. I've read that the tanks only have a 10 year life and then they should be discarded. Ok, I'm not looking to hold anyone to the fire on this, but what would you do, buy a new tank or use the one I got. The gun,...

I should have been clearer. I bought a 3500psi tank. I'm assuming with a DIN connector, (not 300 DIN), as I haven't picked up the tank yet, I'll do that tomorrow. My guess is that the fill adapter for the Anschutz tank will fit right into the scuba DIN valve, but I'm not sure about that part. I'm al...

New Anschutz PCP rifle many questions about filling

I just bought, (but have not received) an Anschutz AN2002 PCP target rifle, and I've never owned a PCP gun before, so I'm going to the source for some info. Here's what I've done so far. I'm assuming from what I've read on the internet that the Annie comes with a DIN to Anschutz rifle tank adapter. ...

Anschutz makes it hard to decipher their #'s, Most of what is given is correct, til you take into account that an 1803 is a 64 action ??? See what I mean?
