You're a major influence in my addiction to springers, so I'm glad you're enjoying the plaque and the rifle.

Thanks for the many hours you have spent working with other professionals to resolve issues with certain models of springers only to make them work the way they were intended to work.

Thank you for the final development and refined GRT- III trigger that so many air gunners are enjoying around the world to help make there air gun experience the best that it can be.
