I've been trying to put the scope on my air rifle, but whenever I finish I keep ending up with extra parts

Ooh, I love air guns! I'm so envious. My friends and I spent one summer shooting each other up with airsoft guns and it was fantastic.

Nothing says "I appreciate your friendship" like a spray of plastic pellets.
Ooh I've always wanted to try playing with airsoft guns... However I'm pretty sure if I shot a friend with my air rifle they'd hate me for life and call the police if they weren't in too much pain to speak

.
... I may have used the wrong term. It's a Panther .22 Air Rifle. It shoots .22 Cal lead pellets at 800 FPS

. So I wouldn't shoot my friends with that... However it's deadly to fruit hanging off trees at long range


My mistake! Still sounds like fun, though.

I just finally figured out how to put the scope on right. That little doohiky-thinger-mabob was an extra part for other models of rifles. Mine didn't use it

.
I think almost 3 years ago when I tried to put the scope on it was very wobbly loose from the brackets and I put the scope on the foreward mounting peg

. So when I did that the scope would wobble and lose calibration and then since it was so far foreward I could see the front sight and piece of the barrel... which is way wrong.
This time though I realized I should put the scope on the back peg... but it was still wobbly. Then I found some hex key and realized that tightens the second part of the mounting brackets to keep it straight and not wobbly

.
It's really cool now and looks like a black sniper rifle

. I can't shoot it right now though because I have nowhere safe to fire it
Also I guess It fires .22 and .177... I have .177 Cal pellets and those go 1000 FPS

. I'm really excited though even though I can't shoot it because before I couldn't really use it effectively because my vision is near sighted and I couldn't even see the front sight to align it with the back sight... with the scope I can see crystal clear for way far away. I think it would be awesome if glasses made things that clear
Now all I need my air rifle to do is fire bees

. Bees would be too big for the chamber so... maybe I can paint the pellets to look like bees
