I miss living in Kent , your garden looks like where I used to live . Oh yeah and I really enjoy your Garden Guns Videos they are very good . Cheers Ray from Alberta Canada .
I really like my PPQ M2... it's a realistic replica with the benefit of being able to fire pellets not BBs, not the most accurate gun in my collection but an excellent plinker and great fun to shoot.
@@sauceNkicks Had my PPQ for nearly two years and use it about once or twice a week, (I have other pistols that require my attn too) There were a few problems I was having at first. #1 was the belt jamming or the trigger being very hard to pull through after a shot. I had lubed the belt with silicone oil as per advised on several You Tube vids but it still kept happening. After examining the mag, I noticed there is a small hole on the back side directly in line with the loading spot of the chain slightly larger than a pellet and I figured that this was for unloading the mag by pushing the pellet through. What was happening when a pellet was over seated, the nose of the pellet was catching on the edge of this exit hole preventing the chain from moving and putting strain on the belt, not a good thing, so I no longer over seat the pellets, just put them in until snug and no more 'jamming problems. The belt itself is made of silicone which I lube frequently, usually after every session as CO2 is hard on silicone for a couple of reasons, first it's really cold esp. when doing rapid fire. Second the gas itself dries out the silicone and the two things combined make the silicone brittle, so every time I finish shooting I give the chain a squirt of silicone oil to keep it happy and pliable, also I never leave any pellets in the mag so as not to over stretch the "chambers" on the chain which is the advantage of that little hole on the back of the mag, just push the pellets through with a cocktail stick, match or similar. Some of this may sound tedious or a bit OCD, but if you were using a powder burner, after every session the gun needs to be broken down, cleaned of all residue inside and out, oiled and polished then reassembled, that's a good hours work at least so not so bad in the grand scheme of things to take a little time to protect your investment. So far (knock on wood) I've had no problems and the chain is holding up well. Having two mags also helps a bit too as I rotate them between sessions using A for one then B for the next preventing over use of just having one mag., and as someone once said, (I have no idea who), "Be kind to your gun and it will be kind to you".
@@BoggWeasel I really appreciate the indept reply. I was in 2 minds about getting this or the glock gen 5 pellet. I'm still a little unsure. But again thanks very much.
Have you been to "Airgun Detectives" channel ? He does a pretty in depth review of both PPQ M2 an Glock 17 gen 5 .I find his reviews fair and informative, pros con performance etc@@sauceNkicks.
Great and very fair review. Mine also shoots low and is more a plinker then anything for targets. I was thinking of getting the Winchester so would love to see that review. Is it also a plinker or anything more in terms of accuracy?
