Sounds great RustyNut! Congrats. I guess I should have left "a pony" off my list to the fat red man.

Tnx Odoyle, I'll check that out. I mentioned above that regulations are part of the picture, but safety is bigger yet--only fools go to the line and beyond, especially just for hobbies. Such a tether scheme almost suggests that oomph is the main ingredient needed to bump velocity, rather than...

Points well taken BioHazard. I may not do much of anything, but such decisions can't be made until one knows the impediments and design trade-offs the original designer faced. Sometimes I wonder if performance trade-offs might be made because of marketing decisions, like how many shots a 12g...

Sure, but the idea is that it might result in a gun worth having done it. My concern is more that it's just not achievable with modification effort--it might require pretty much machining a different device. As such it's a whole different kind of task. For example, how much muzzle velocity...

Wondering whether old west replicas (Colt Peacemaker replicas, the Schofield replica, etc) can be "tuned" or modified, such as: -- Get a bit more velocity, either at the expense of shot count or by swapping for a longer barrel -- Boring out .177 to convert to .22 pellet use -- ...

I like replicas, especially Old West replicas. I like the Schofield No.3 in particular, but I admit it's mostly for its historical style, as I can't say it operates better than anything else. The Colts are nice that way too. Most (if not all) of the Old West replicas shoot only .177 however...
