Congratulations Matt !

By the time your wipe her down, and get your scope mounted, you'll have lots of time to shoot her !

I really enjoy my QB-78, but it's just too easy to shoot :)

If you are going to tune and reseal your QB, I find that EPDM o-ring to hold with CO2 on the valve and endcap. I have used silicone & urethane and both failed after absorbing and swelled up from use. The EPDM shows no change and swelling. For the barrel and bolt I use buna duro 90 for longitivity. I have also modded the barrel where I don't have to remove it to take the breech off. This is where I get my seals dirt cheap minus the poly tube that I got from HD >>  http://www.theoringstore.com/servlet/StoreFront
