Looks great. The pressure gauge might look more subtle if it had a light tint on it. HmmmmmGuys, I have a new grip.(+ the rear picatinny)

Both made by Ethan D. ([email protected]).
Regardless, it looks sharp.

I actually like it a lot, it barely adds overall weight to the gun and it is very solid and robust when collapsed or shouldered.

Yupp, I'm gonna buy one of these later. On Ebay.
I waited 3 months, and right after the 'vacation' has ended the seller was gone for good. No longer a registered user.
My only hope for a refund now, is Paypal. But I waited too long for this fckr. Now, I have to wait for Paypal's respond. Will see.
Be careful guys.

The Huben pistol is fantastic,........... the shorty is simply phenomenal worth every penny.

Holding it all up.
I have had some inquiries regarding my last post on holstering my carbine. I've now got a couple of hundred happy miles on my rig so it's time to post the details. The holster is a basic nylon affair available on Amazon and is in the first photo below. I believe Uncle Mikes has a similar holster. Don't expect this to be a lifetime purchase. If you use it as much as I do it will wear. Expect to replace it every couple of years.
It comes with a basic strap, nothing exciting. Without the extra weight of the stock a sturdy gun belt is all that is needed. With the additional mass of the stock it helps to use a strap in light tension to help stabilize the holster. I feel a springy neoprene camera strap works best and applies very little force on your shoulder. The Tamrac strap I use has been lurking in my collection of camera gear for the last decade. I recommend using the stock strap to determine the length and then consider a quality strap from Op-Tech, available from Amazon or direct from Op-Tech in Bozeman. Their straps are available in different models and lengths with extensions and fittings to customize the strap for your specific requirements.
More important than the strap is a proper gun belt. I've used and highly recommend the Original Instructors Belt from The Wilderness since 1998. I don't beleive that there is finer tactical gun belt on the market. They are made to order in the USA and like Op-Tech they are a quality oriented family owned business. For the Huben order the 5 stitch version for the extra vertical rigidity. The 1 1/2" width is adequate for the pistol alone. The 1 3/4" version works better with the additional mass of the folding stock. I'm a skinny guy, for larger folks the 1 3/4" belt may be enough without a stabilizing shoulder strap. The second photo shows from left to right; the 1 3/4" Original Instructor belt, 1 1/2" Frequent Flyer and the last two are a pair of 1 1/2" Original Instructor belts with titanium buckles.
The last two photos show how it all fits together for field use with a Mountainsmith Lumbar Pack. Op-Tech's Reporter/Backpack System Connectors hang the binoculars from the Mountainsmith Strappette's that stabilize the lumbar pack.

For those wanting to use wad cutters on this platform, I recommend using the jts 18g.8gr wadcutters, they out perform the crosmans and seem to edge out the fx 15.9gr domed.
I will also say that I didn't change the tune I had for the crosman pellets.
Originally I was shooting the 15.9gr at 815fps, ran out of those, and retuned the 14.3 cphp to about the same velocity. Now without changing the tune I'm getting between 810 and 820fps shooting the 18.8gr wadcutter pellets.

For next time, it's a pretty easy and simple take apart process without having to mess with the alignment of the barrel.

Very thin cleaning rod from the front. You don't want to damage the 3 ears in the black magazine seal.
