    According to my wife, this is a trending thing?

    Yup, big full range one. At my 200 pound body weight they’ll run for well over an hour continuously as long as I’m up on the wing most of the time, and the wing I’m riding is an efficient one.

    HAPPY TURTLE DAY!!!

    For us in east Texas it’s as simple as the leaves on the hardwood trees, and pollen turning every horizontal surface yellow. In the blink of an eye, everything thing turns from brown to green and yellow. I live on a 200 acre lake and the turtles here will appear anytime we have a warming trend...

    FX Any plans for different sized DRS Plenums?

    I’m betting that he relieved the stock to allow that raised area on the Tactical’s plenum to clear rather than take material off of the plenum itself. I don’t have a DRS so I’m on the outside looking in here, but that seems the easier way to do it. Even though my mill would make short work of...

    I have been officially shut down!

    This. I was going to say, as others have said, that it’s time to go quiet and (figuratively) dark. Quiet the gun, quiet the backstop hide/relocate/camouflage the shooting position, and block direct view of the actual target from any angle other than from said shooting position. If you are caught...

    Recommend me a new gun

    So you survived the run in? Anyway, when you say “traditional” are you meaning traditional action forward style, or traditional action forward but with traditional rifle looks too. If the later, the DRS seems like a nice choice. For the former, I find the AGT Vixen intriguing as well as a Huben...

    What did you do airgun related today.

    This happened to me on an order fulfilled by Amazon. I posted a negative review on the Amazon fulfillment process and Vector stepped up and made it right. Being an Amazon seller myself I understand that Amazon is 85% to blame, but the seller bears some responsibility. After all, they/we chose to...

    What did you do airgun related today.

    Enjoyed this barrel aged beauty while I browsed AGN and lamented the Sidewinder that I missed in the classified section. Oh yea, earlier this morning I finished the fixed QD fill port for my Uragan2 so that I don’t have to rely on probes for either of my AGT guns anymore.

    One of those days for a week or more !!!

    You know it’s windy in east Texas when the small 175 acre lake that you live on (which is surrounded by a windbreak of trees) has whitecaps on it. That’s a sight I’ve been greeted with often over the last couple of weeks.

    No attention needed!

    Yea and they’re no joke. Officer: “Ok sir but if nothing is missing, how do you KNOW someone broke into your house?” You: “Well there’s this broken window, a big red stain, and a half eaten shoe on the floor…”

    Proper Way To Ship A Carbon Fiber Tank

    In addition to what’s already been said, also consider putting something over the valve to take the impact of it being dropped vertically from chest high directly onto the valve. Because based on what I’ve witnessed, I’d be shocked if that DIDN’T happen at some point while in transit.

    I’m guessing that like me, he’d like some enlightenment as to your methodology. I’m a dry sponge when it comes to tuning these things.
