OK.... here's the deal...I have asked staff members to take a look at this thread. I've asked them to cast their votes for 'THE BEST' avatar, one vote per staff member.Voting will end when the Aspen appears on my doorstep. At that time, the winner will be announced here and that winner will receive my .177 ATI Freedom 'parts gun' with it's already mentioned issue.Only members that have already submitted avatar entries will qualify.Travis, if you will, please don't lock this thread until that time.... unless, of course, replies take on an ugly path.. .... in that event, I will ask Travis to lock it up and still announce the winner here but further replies will not be permitted.
I have said it before and I'll say it again...You are a good man Bill!
Great news !!!With the country slowly opening back up things are beginning to move again. I did receive a tracking number today and the Aspen is on it's way. Estimated delivery is Wednesday 27th.As I originally posted, once the Aspen hits my door step the winner of the ATI Freedom 'parts gun' will be announced here and that gun will be sent out to it's new owner.To the winner;Please review my original posts... this is not a brand new gun without issue. I installed a set of picatinny rails to the sides for mounting bipod legs and the gun has a slow (overnight) leak and on of the side cover screws were stripped (not a hard fix... I think I put a spot of super glue on it just to hold it in place). It will come with every thing that I got when I received the gun from ATI. Which, IIRC, is the gun, open sights, a mag and fill probe.The gun shoots and functions great and is quite accurate.So, stay tuned for the announcement next week.Please... in the meantime... stay safe.
