    Question for Wildcat owners

    How long do the "O" rings in the magazine last before they fail ? Also do you think it would be a problem to leave them loaded for prolonged length of time ? I keep this one loaded by the back door for Gophers. Have got a few already but you have to be fast so I leave it loaded all the time.

    What Happened to Ted ?

    I haven't seen anything here about Ted's adventures at EBR he was all excited and apparently had his .30 twin tank Impact dialed in. But when I checked the results it looks like he used a .25 cal gun. I was really looking forward to see how his .30 worked. I hope he is not embarrassed about his...

    Problem with FX manometers

    I would fill my bottles on the air rifles and always the gauge on the gun didn't match the gauge on the air tank. I replace the gauges on the my Impacts with Huma gauges. I also tried the gauges made by Wikai but they are larger and the plastic lens cover tends to pop off if banged against...
