So a Very Good Friend picked up a Gen 1 .22 RainStorm at Toyz that Shoot a couple years ago.
No magazine, stock was broken and a bad fix to that. Got a good price on it but just never liked it much.
Being We wheel and deal with each other alot I asked if I could buy it. Sure enough after some cash and parts deals? It became mine.
I let it set for a month or more as I searched for magazines. I finally was guided to someone that sold me 2 for a VERY good price!
Let it sit a few more weeks before I filled it to get to testing things. And here is where I kind of went Stupid.
I filled off the SCUBA tank so just under 200 BAR which is the rateing for the RS. No problem. But pressure gauge only went to just over 100 BAR.
Asked my Friend and he said he believed the gauge was bad. DER OK! Said I. Loaded a magazine and took some shots. What a weak POS I got. Or so the STUPID voices in my head told me.
Now some of the voices speak in languages I don't understand and some times they go missing. I assume to visit relatives or a strip club.
Well today one of them showed back up and told me "You know if there's a Regulator in there the gauge is reading fine right?"
Thank God that voice speaks English! (Well with a Scottish accent but I can live with that)
Degassed and took the tube off. Sure enough a Huma Reg and one of those danged 'Brissle brush' depingers!
Now I have a Huma Reg tester so I can reset the reg for Power over shot count. (Oh the joys of a compressor!)
So taking a gamble on what looked like a possible parts Gun? I'm pretty happy with how things are turning out as I Love the Evanix Guns!
This one has alot of work to get it where I want it but Scotty says I did good.
