Losing your puppy, regardless of how old they are, is the worst thing in my world! I guess that means that losing relatives is not as bad, but then I should tell you that I really don't like a lot of my relatives to begin with! Dogs are my favorite people, and my 3 big Airedales that are in...

Your info on the size of an airplane wing is 180 degrees out! The larger a wing is, the plane is usually much slower as a result. Some of this is because the larger wing is necessary to provide the lift for a bigger, heavier plane to boot. I flew and worked in the aircraft industry for over...

Nick, sorry you couldn't find what you wanted around Spfd.! It might not offer everything you need as well as the larger cities, but IF it is available, it might be worth the extra time/money to make it work because of the advantages of living around here over the larger cities! Your lower...

Thought I'd give your balloon idea a try...had to run out to the nearby Dollar Store to find balloons, and the gun now has a bright yellow balloon stretched over the muzzle like a condom! No action so far, so I don't know if that's good or not.

I just had to order the FX extra super dooper high rings for my new crown. I usually use Vortex high rings and like them a lot...however, the bell of the scope was on the barrel and the mag wouldn't have come close to working. I had no idea, never had this problem before!

Putting an ugly plastic look beercan on the end of the barrel on a $2100 gun, followed up by huge AirForce stickers on the bottle. I've got 2 AirForce guns already, and the cost for both combined is about half what that new gun cost, and they were both worth the money. The new one isn't worth...

No, I don't have any idea...as usual, their owner's manual is outdated and contains very little useful info. O'Doyle, I just went out and dry fired the gun from 230 bar down to just under 160 bar. It had held at 230 after only dropping 100 bar overnight. I'm going to let it sit for a while...

Yep! Sure did, also tried the soap/bubble mixture to see if the leak was there. Even tried at the end of the barrel and made sure to blow it out with several dry fires. I topped it off last night and it only lost 100 bar, so I have hopes that the breaking in is doing the trick! Sure hate to...

Thanks for the advice...I have absolutely no idea where the leak is at this point! I'll try dry firing it tomorrow, esp. if it's raining like it's supposed to be. I haven't checked the gauge for a couple of hours, but am planning on topping it off before bed to see what it does overnight. ...

Congrats! Great groups! Got my new .30 MK II Crown yesterday and it's leaking air. Filled it up last night to 250 bar and it was down to just a hair below 200 this morning. Soap bubble tested it, and ran a couple of mags through it to see what it would do leak-wise tonight. I'm supposed to...

Sparky, congrats on the Veteran! I don't think you'll be at all unhappy with it. Both of mine (std. and long) are .25's, but basic set up is the same as yours. I use Vortex high mount rings and they work well for me. I shoot JSB's most of the time and haven't tried slugs yet, so can't help...

The RAW I received was the new (improved) model by AirForce, and not the original in the pics that I saw on their site when I ordered it. Instead of the original offset moderator on the barrel, which was previously all carbon fiber wrapped, it had this gawd-awful huge plastic can stuck on there...

Sorry, meant to say PM me and I'll answer up ASAP! If you're still in Branson, you're only 30 minutes from where we are. Tom

If you're looking to get out of CA, you're doing it at the right time. The MO Ozarks are a great place to live, insulated from most of the strife that you see in today's large cities. We're just south of Springfield 15 minutes, and 30 minutes from Branson. I grew up out here, and left in '67...

Correction on that last post, it's a Wildcat MK III Sniper and it's a shooter!
