Other  Feeding a yong heng compressor off a compressor?

If feeding dry air into your compressor is your main objective, take a look at my setup. I live in Florida where we are ALWAYS fighting high humidity and I have come up with a way to feed my compressor the dryest air reasonably possible. I recently put a mini-split A/C in my garage so I can typically pull the humidity down to 40 - 45ish % with that. I have also (for a couple years now) been feeding my compressor with a dehumidifier. I capture the output of my dehumidifier and pipe it directly into the first stage intake of my compressor (the cake pan is velcro'd to the top of the dehumidifier) which gives me air typically less than 20% RH. This has dramatically decreased the amount of moisture expelled out of the 2nd stage purge valve. Good luck, Chip.

Now, that’s a good idea. I’ve got a mixed climate half the year it’s almost zero humidity from the extreme cold-20 to -40 range, the other half the year it’s high humidity from all the taiga landscape and swamps.

Re-Design FT: Make it easier for MD's

Field Target is labor intensive, no way around it. But we have this insane passion for it and will labor away for even just a couple of shooters. Add in any landscaping and mowing and it’s doubled depending where you are and the time of year. Some courses are also just easier to set up than others too. Over time I think a certain cadence and system develops for each club and MD’s and it works for them. For instance at Boerne oftentimes it’s just easier to set up at 5:30 am and I can’t expect people to be there, let alone deal an uncaffeinated MD. I also think each club has its own unique needs and areas where it could be made easier, not necessarily a universal solution. Large clubs and small clubs are setting up the same number of targets, based winders and stuff sans a few extras so its bodies at that point and the more members or shooters available to be involved usually the better. Others have way more time for setup and they are blessed to have it! There’s always work needed between matches too that shooters are not always cognizant about especially when equipment is limited or aging, so sometimes volunteering could be better served between matches.

Best thing to help MD’s is to show up and shoot as much FT as you can to help keep your club going. When attendance is good the work isn’t really work!

Re-"design" a new Field Target game

"Re those bell targets with conduit, is the aim to shoot into the conduit so the pellet travels around the bend and hits the gongy bit, or does the conduit focus the sound back to the shooter?"

Travel around the bend to ring the bell... the end of the conduit needs to be a little ways from the bell so less likely to be ringing on a split pellet...

The interesting aspect of shooting it is that you ate hitting something that you can't see and getting a nice reaction. I've made flag targets similarly.

One of the coolest I've seen was a volcano target that someone set up as part of a side shoot at one of the Nationals we attended. You shot at a "kill zone" and if successful, ir "erupted"... No idea how it was done, but it was fun... 👍😀

JTS  JTS BRAWN @ $499 (the New King of Affordable Bullpups?) Video Review

DonnyFL offers a $50 solid adapter for the MAX which locks the muzzle and shroud in line, unfortunately, all the sound reduction of internal baffles goes away when they do. Accuracy is improved but I have to use a .50 moderator to avoid clipping, even .30 gets destroyed by my .25. Again, I'm talking MAX, not the Standard, whole different ball game. WM
Understood. Thanks for that.
Canceled the order after seeing the issue reported. I am NOT a tuner and have NO plans on being one.
Right there with ya Brutha! lol I like to shoot, not tinker.

Other  78G reseal kits

i think if i were doing these pistols all the time the extractor would be my go-to tool to remove the tube
it is easy to use but the again you would have to own one
the rub of working on your own guns is the tools
if you treat buying tools as a needed part of the hobby than it is not a problem a man cannot have too many tools but if it is not your goal to collect tools and the expense that it entails than send them out
i for i have the skills that i can work on most of mine and the tool purchase is a onetime deal with each tool and of course some you select might not work
so, then the question is cheaper to do yourself or to send them out
and the answer is if you plan to own just one send it out, if you plan to collect many get the parts and tool up if needed
things have change over the last 10 years
the prices of old use guns has doubled and or tripled in some cases and the supply has gotten small because of the interest and or a younger group of hobbyists but at some point, many of us older collectors will be selling their collection and it starts all again
we are just caretakers at this point in time and a new one will be needed down the road
