Welcome to the GTA family John. Gene posted recently that he will not be taking any new tunes until may. Apparently ,he is all booked up until then. Here is a link to his post. http://www.gatewaytoairguns.com/airguns/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=25092&mid=198559#M198559 I am sure he will get back with you as soon as he can. As for other Reputable Tuners, I am sure someone will give you some advice soon. Good luck, snookman

Thank's for all the help.....I won't be gettin out till May anyway....I have soooo much snow to shovel it'll take me that long !!! HaHaHaHa...!!!

Yesterday my friend and I did the Tune ourselves....WOW This is NOW a GREAT gun and FUN FUN FUN to shoot .....the tune was not that hard ...I believe the hardest part was mustering the courage to go into the un-known....never done this before .....well it's history now....and today and everyday thereafter is getting sweeter with every shot .....I sure could use some info on adjusting the GRT trigger can't seem to find any instruction's on the two adjustment's ...? you got the tiny allen head ? and the silver slotted screw ? I just blindly mess with them but it would be nice to know what Im doin HaHa..... I know that if the slotted screw is all the way in ....you can't get the gun to hold a cock (that don't sound good) but you know what I mean : )

Hi John.... I guess you didn't read the installation instructions completely. I have already deleted your e-mail that you sent earlier regarding your tune but if you will e-mail me again, I will send you the complete adjustment guide.

I read ALL the instruction's this time ,Thank's Uncle J...got the trigger set up just right....then I filled my synthetic stock with 1/3 insulation foam - 1/3 play sand (tapped till tight) 1/3 insulation foam again ....and now this gun is shooting so smooth that at first I wondered if I lost power some how....? Turn's out I can put a RWS 8.3 grain lead pellet through 1/16 metal roofing at 30 yard's...The Tune and the trigger (GRT) and the stock work really is the ticket ...I just added a Centerpoint 3x9 scope too.... I Think I'm done ??? what else is there to do butshoot ? ...I wish I could give my arm a steady Tune....just can't hold the rifle steady without a rest like I could when I was 20..... I'm havin more fun now at 54 though.....EASY DOES IT

Your welcome and good shooting. I'm 58 now and I think I going though my second childhood.

You think you are having fun now wait till you start in your 3rd childhood, it gets just as good or better......I think?
Did my first tune a short time back and learned a lot so I have a gun I will bob the barrel and add a nice compensator and crown the barrel
Never know till you try and the challenge gives my old brain a run for its money.

I'm 34 and still in my first one. I always say I'm never growing up! Lol having too much fun.
-
Heck,
I guess I have you all beat, I NEVER GREW UP !!!!!
I can't see a reason to start now !
If not for my hobbies, I would have gone stark raving MAD !!!! a long time ago :p
Maybe I have ?
