How are the triggers on those nitro pistons? The gun sounds promising.

For christmas?  RWS 350, or 48. Maybe 48. I dont know...both.  (yeah right)

I guess not  ;)

I just got done making a shim for the breach seal and cleaning the bore. So I just couldn't wait... set the spring... dropped in a CPHP... Flipped on the yard light... took aim at an empty spot on the hillside where I set up targets sometimes... slowly squeezed the trigger... I heard the pellet hit the frozen ground beneath the 14" of snow  8)  I came inside, wiped her down with a silicone cloth and put her to bed back in the safe.

That was so smooth it was like butter. I think it is the beginning of a beautiful relationship.

I will maybe do a write up after I get it sighted in this week.

I *want* lots of things, however will settle for considerably less :-) After I see that the wife and kids get what they want most I might pick up some of the following:



1 piece Leapers accutshot mount (for the Air Hawk).



NCstar 2-7x pistol scope



Flattop piston for the 1377



modified valve for the 1377 (might do that myself, dunno)



2289 grip for the 1377



.22 bolt and probe for the 1377



..dunno, want to soup up the 1377 and convert to .22 potentially (I have a 24" .22 barrel already that I might cut down).

a HW50S. I told my wife that these were my current air gun "heart's desires". There is box of the correct shape in a closet. But I don't poke at it!

I would just like some time to shoot the airguns I already own.



I do have a List, and even a Short List. But lately I find that opening the safe is like meeting a roomful of strangers. Maybe I will get to reacquaint myself with the current herd over the holiday break. There are some in there that I've hardly ever shot. I have a B5-10 that I have never really given a fair shake, for example, and I thought it had a lot of potential. And I still haven't found the time or the nerve to air up the Dragonslayer!

I want everyone to have an excellent 2010. When I look back at my 2009 year and think I had it bad, I am still way better off than a lot of people.



Eat the elephant one bite at a time.



I hope you get your HW77 and everyone else gets what they want too.



Merry Christmas!

I wish for the well being of all my friends and family.  
I'd like an Air Arms S410 carbine (walnut & old bolt style), but that ain't gonna happen.

Take care and happy holidays everyone!

: Mrs. Santa brought me an IZH 46m!!!

I love Mrs. Claus!  She let me test it a little.  I promptly lost one of the notoriously easy to lose breech seals.  But I found it in the AM, so I still have 4 seals...

It seems as accurate with CPLs as it does with match grade wadcutters.  Did I mention Mrs. Claus hates the English Sparrows on her feeder?  Well the 46m is very quiet.  About as quiet as the Tempest that can't hit the broadside of an Ostrich!

Merry Christmas to Neil!  Thanks, Mrs. Claus!

There was a lot of questions if the Baikal factory would have shipped them out in time.  Mrs. Claus ordered it in early September.

I can just see the puff's of feathers already.  Just in time for the Audoban Society Feeder Count!  Be a few less House Sparrow around!  I guess we will not count those!

You beat me to it. That's what I'm hoping for, too. Just starting to get the hang of my TX.
