Those two pups would be Trinh's Cricket and Jesse's Vulcan. Talk about a nice pair! Thanks for posting the pictures Jim!

Oh, I and wonder how many people(especially with Hatsan air cylinders) have wiped the rust off their guns by now? I wiped my gun down and put it in the building, but I still had a light dusting of rust on my air cylinder. I just wiped it down with an oiled rag, and then cleaned it off. It's just like new now, but I've had that happen with my AT-44 before, so I knew to check it today... If any of you haven't, you better go check it out to be safe.

Donny, you have that bullboss dialed in and I still can't get over how quiet it is. Thanks for the advice on the at-44, I,m still a newbie when it comes to tuning for max shot count.

Steve, I was vary impressed with the p12 I love how light it is, I can't wait to see how it does with a hammer denounce device installed. We need to talk about that condor if you want to sell it

Thanks Jim for the pictures, I'm glad everyone had a good time and got home safely.

If any of y'all want to come and shoot on the weekends just call or message me, if I don't have plans then y'all are welcome to come, heck I will probably be there anyway.

Underdog · « **Reply #83 on:** July 19, 2016, 01:16:09 PM »

You're quite welcome. I wish I'd taken more pix...

By the way, I was in the doghouse a bit because I stayed out so late, but it was SO worth it..

I didn't get home til 10:30PM, and didn't get everything put away, showered and in bed til 11:45PM.

Loved all of it, even locking my keys in my truck, and getting lost.

I did NOT enjoy having to get up at 6:30AM and go to work though..

You definitely have to do this again in the fall. Boy, do I hope I'm not occupied doing something else.

Thanks again man!

Looks like a great time! Looking forward to the Fall event.

Sounds like we won't be seeing Jim for a while.

. That was part of the reason I had to leave early because I want to be able to shoot again at the next meet.

Great pictures. I wished I had more. We definitely have to meet up again in the Fall, I am sure the scenery is worth the drive. I am still baffled that my GPS was able to get me there.

You're a wiser man than I!
I'll definitely be following your example next time..

Trinh, you did not miss anything with the chicken, after it got done cooking is was like rubber.I thought I had just not cooked it right but as it turns out the other two chickens were the same way after cooking them so it must have ben the chicken, or at lest that is my excuse

all I can say is sorry to the people that ate that chicken.

Anyone looking for a Cricket 22 cal BP wood? I just made a deal with a person who is selling off his airgun stuff before moving to Europe. I grabbed a bunch of pellets. He sold 4 of his PCPs and accessories on the yellow forum the past couple of days. He is about to list his Cricket BP for $925 later tonight. Just a heads up if anyone interested.

I'm still trying to get the $ up for a tank and valve set up.

Glen if you went the ebay tank and self build fill assembly you can get a tank and assembly for a little over $200 minus shipping. So with hydro testing and shipping it shouldn't be more than $250 all in. This is for a 65CF 45 minute tank with a manufacture date of 2008.

GD Giles · « **Reply #91 on:** July 20, 2016, 11:32:21 PM »

I just met a guy today in town who's company does hydro testing. Or does the hydro testing happen before they ship it?

blackdiesel · « **Reply #92 on:** July 20, 2016, 11:46:50 PM »

You have to get the tank hydro tested unless it's been tested within the last 5 years. Hydro testing is $29 at Atlanta Fire Safety. I'm sure there is a place near you that does it. I wouldn't take it to a dive shop because they will just send it off to be tested and charge you a service fee.

GD Giles · « **Reply #93 on:** July 21, 2016, 08:02:52 AM »

The guy I met is with a fire and safety company.

blackdiesel · « **Reply #94 on:** July 21, 2016, 08:32:27 AM »

Great. I took a page out of Jesse's playbook and rented a nitrogen cylinder. I'm still going to use the paintball shop but there have been times when they get busy and low on air pressure. Rent is only $8 per month so I don't mind having a back-up system.

Old_School · « **Reply #95 on:** July 21, 2016, 10:13:53 AM »

Geeze guys, I've been out of active airgunning about 15 years and now I find a bunch of enthusiasts near me! Hate that I missed your get together. Maybe I can meet up with y'all sometime this fall.

What's the difference performance and price wise for nitrogen vs CO2?

Well normally this group of guys meets in Lithonia, which seems to be about the same distance from Buford, as Dahlonega.

I'm going to try to make it to a Lithonia meetup sometime. But I'll definitely make an effort to get back to the Fall meetup at Jesse's place, if I'm not otherwise engaged. This made me want to move to the mountains...

Not really an issue. I used to shoot with Airgunning Atlanta, which meets in Covington. What's a couple of hours?

Do you mean nitrogen and regular high pressure air? CO2 not good for PCPs. I'm not sure if there is a performance difference in nitrogen and HPA except nitrogen is dryer and so better for PCP tanks. Different vendors price their rental and gas differently. I shopped around and decided to get the tank from Palmers Welding. It cost $8 per month rental and gas refill (drop-off and exchange) is $44.
