Foster fitting problem??

Nah, it's still on the bench looking really good and doing nothing to put air in my gun. On the other hand, a coworker at my new job provided me with a CF bottle filled to 4500 psi since he's no longer shooting airguns. It's on loan so my reprieve is only a short-term solution... but I am finally shooting! By the way, the gun's name (Elliot) comes from an old and little-known Disney film that was remade within the last couple of years. Called "Pete's Dragon", the dragon was named "Elliot" by title character Pete. You can do the math from there, I think.

As for the pump, time to contact the maker and discuss a replacement, I think.
