I am dying to see how he put that LDC on the .22 cricket. It looks like they shorten the shroud and added a fitting. My "Donny Du" rig has a removeable shroud (stock length) and then you attach a LDC on it . However I have since sold it because it makes the cricket too long.

I will see when I get it. He said that he bought it from Topgun and the former owner added the LDC for him.

Guys, just bought this air tank, http://www.ebay.com/itm/231312000514?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
Thanks for the link Norman.

Will this hose assembly work with it? I seems like the same that Joe Brancato has for SCBA, but I am just not seeing how it fit together.

You have to buy a hose for that assembly

ptreemover37 · « **Reply #303 on:** May 29, 2016, 03:06:48 PM »

Okay, but will it actually connect to the ebay tank I bought. I figured you guys with the tanks know how it connects.

blackdiesel · « **Reply #304 on:** May 29, 2016, 07:47:03 PM »

Yes it will fit. As long as it's a CGA347 connection.

Chad, is that a cricket short or a stranded?

Jesse have you ever shot the crosman dome pellets in the Kailbrgun rifle? I found out it shoots them as well as it shoot JSB 18 gr and AA 16 gr. Donny was shooting them at the 50 yard target and since I have a few tins I decided to see how they shot. Wel I shot 10 pellets and all were touching. When we set up the little coffee cup things at 80 and 103 yards they were still accurate at these distances. We set up some cans at 120 and 130 yards and Donny was still hitting them with the Crosman pellets. i switched back to the JSBs and AAs at this distance but I assume if they were accurate at 100 yards they would probably be accurate at longer distances too. I think they are going to be my main plinking pellets now.

I haven't shot the Crosman Domes beyond 100 yards but my P12 loves them out to that distance... they have become my go to for the detuned P12 and my Hatsan 125 for plinking and small game. Will go back to the JSB and Cudas for bigger quary.

Yep, the Kalibrgun was lights out with them today(and a very nice rifle I might add)! I'm also quite happy that my AT-44 was back on point after my re-re-crown and polishing

You guys have no idea how crappy I was shooting last time. I agree with Norman though, I'm pretty much going to stick to the crosmans for targets. They shoot as good as any pellet out of my gun as well(after barrel work), and 500 for $8.99 doesn't hurt either. We had good day shooting either way. That was fun shooting 80-130 yards today. That 120-130 yard distance is the longest I've ever shot anything with a pellet gun. Despite the wind's best efforts, I did tag that can on the fence 4 out of 5 times at 120 yards with the crosman domes

I'm still going to swear by the Terminators for the tree rats though. Nasty little pellets they are...

Wish I could've been there. Where were you setting up 120 yard targets? Also, are you talking about the Crosman pellets in the box or in a tin? The one's in the box I've never seen for under $20.

blackdiesel · « **Reply #310 on:** May 30, 2016, 09:42:02 AM »

Glen it's the regular Premier Domes Ultra Magnums in the metal tin. We set up cans inside the gated area at 120-130 yards.

Rallyshark · « **Reply #311 on:** May 30, 2016, 02:32:50 PM »

It was kind of funny "looping" the pellets through the gate. It's weird putting the crosshairs on the cross member of gate to hit what is behind it. There was some serious hold-over happening.

jc1234 · « **Reply #312 on:** May 30, 2016, 11:03:07 PM »

Holy &^^& that's awesome I never knew those pellets could be that accurate but I think I'll stick with my JSB pallets. Speaking of which I'm about to place an order sometime in the first of next month for pellets from airguns of Arizona anyone wants to jump in with me let me know might save us all on some shipping plus the more tins we order the more we get for free.

I need a box of JSB 25.39 grain 350ct and JSB 33.95 gr 300 ct. Both in Exact Diabolo MaTCH King

Jesse - I just ordered 2 tins JSB 18.1gr from Amazon for $9.65 per 250. I couldn't find them cheaper.

Glen - I thought of you when I saw the Bull Boss being released. I like the Gladius better.

Called Joe B. today and order his T-Slo valve and cancelled my other order. I just want to be safe with 4,500 psi.

Now, I have about $375 on Amazon for a scope. Looking at Monstrum FFP 6-24x50. I know its relatively cheap and mil/moa, but I like the reticle.

At the end of day, I am out $900 after using funds from my airsoft gun sales, forgotten Christmas money and AMEX/Amazon point for .22 Cricket, scope and tank.

I found this on AN about the gun I bought. Did he damage the gun?

Chad that's almost $20 for 500 count. You can get 500 ct tin at Trenier for $13.47. Of course there is some shipping cost but their shipping is pretty reasonable. I usually just go for the 4 tins for the price of 3 at PA. They cost more per tin but when you order the 4 for 3 and 10% discount code it seems to be more cost effective. If you time it for their sales you can get free shipping and 10% discount on orders of $150 or more. Shipping at AoA is more but their price per tin is better than PA. It just seemed that every time I wanted to order pellets they were out of stock.. They are a good source when they have them on hand.Believe me if you have a tank you will burn through those two tins in no time.

He claims it's still accurate so hopefully it's ok.

tinsoldier · « **Reply #318 on:** May 31, 2016, 05:22:21 PM »

I still can't figure out how he did that!!! Once I get home, I will take a picture of what it should look like when you take the shroud off.

ptreemover37 · « **Reply #319 on:** May 31, 2016, 05:35:19 PM »

He used a torch. You can see the discoloration at the end of the shroud - found on another one of his posts.
