Shipped off the Krai L 177 to a new home, sent the veyron plus 10x30 back. In the last few days I shipped out the thermal hand held, gk1 parts and rehomed a U2 compact.

I set up a new target thing at the range. I put a saw blade on a wire and hang a bell behind the saw blade. 3/8 hole and 5 1/2 inch blade for the 45 yard one and a bigger blade for the 100 yard target. It’s still in the works so I used tape and just took a shot. Missed just low right . The next two went through 3/8 of an inch and did not even wiggle the blade.
Airguns are amazing.

Picked up a Brum Tomahawk this week but it was missing its slimtech silencer. Wasn't much fun to cock the 13" LW barrel, so had a rummage in the shop....only had stainless in but made this little 1/2" unf mod anyway-
Does the job and looks 'ok', but will be replacing it with something more correct in the long run.....

Dang... just had a couple dozen mediocre circular saw blades I consigned to the garbage can (and cost me nothing to begin with)!

Today was pretty good day at the swapper. Couple weeks back bought a full, red Sheridan 500 rd. tin of 5mm pels for $20. Today, a friend of the seller bought (and resold to me) two earlier, gray/white 500 rd. tins of 5mm pels (only one tin was about 95% full) for $35.00 the pair. Then found the three pictured "spice-cans" of Crosman .22 cal. pels. One is sealed and two opened but basically full, for $10. Lastly got the Ontario US machete for $10. One never knows where your pellet rifle will take you...

Working on my auction treasures. Painted the barrel of my Crosman 114, did the first coat of TruOil on it's stock. Did the first coat of Minwax on the stock of the Benjamin 347 and while its drying I attacked the barrel and action with Gun Scrubber then gave it a nice wipe down with TriFlow. A fun day even though my favorite college football team got stomped by Texas Tech.

Printed 3D hangers for my DRS Tactical and mounted it on the wall. Now I don’t have to move it off the washer to do laundry.

Had a gopher free-loading in my wife's garden this year. Shut down the free buffet with a 60 yard shot off of the back deck.

Put a crc plenum on a notos build, waiting on the rest of the parts from Maple and c88 to arrive to see what it all can do.
Brought the regulator setting down on my U2 177 as it was pushing 18.5gr slug at 1090fps
relatively quiet too might I add but an air hog.
Put a new to me (for my buddy) PHC .22 out a new buttstock on it, paired it with an arken and an IA.
Made sure to top off all my guns for the week.

Get an Orion The Iguana Hunter Magazine.
They are way easier to load and they fit in the rifle better !
Plus 42.1gr slugs fit in the magazine.

I chronographed the notos, and it is now doing 805-810 with just the crc plenum. Gonna be installing the low force peek valve, ported valve and cocking handle.

We got another round of Zelos trigger guards ready for sand blasting. Should be headed out for anodizing on Friday.

I mounted the temu scope that I didn’t realize I had ordered. 5x24x50. It doesn't seem to be horrible about on par with a centerpoint I hvae on a powder Burner. Even with high mounts I cant use the 20rd magazine that I have.

Just curious, what made your go with the crc plenum vs the Huben Power Dream Regulator and get some adjustabilityPut a crc plenum on a notos build, waiting on the rest of the parts from Maple and c88 to arrive to see what it all can do.

I'm going for a sleeper build. Also, this plenum has the same amount of plentum as the Huben but the pressure plate hole is opened up to 8mm so it's one less thing to do. With the Huben I've always encountered an increase from 740 with 15.89 to 770-773. With this alone mine jumped from 740- 810 with 15.89. It's also very sleek, I will also be putting to c88 plenum extensions in tandoori with the plenum to turn the 25cc plenum into a 55cc plenum to see what it does along with all the parts I got. By the end of it the air tube won't be any longer than the barrel with stock mod.
