should have an fx revo soon. this is absolutely an addiction. only explanation i could come up with for spending that much $ on a "bb" gun.(at least for someone on my budget)

i will add that jim at precision airguns and supplies has been wonderful to deal with so far.

congrats on the new shooter. what scope are you going to put on it?

aack73 · « **Reply #2 on:** October 05, 2011, 07:21:58 PM »

eventually a hawke.for now it will be either the bushnell 6500 2.5-16 off the mrod or a mueller 8-32 or a bsa 6-24. probably rob the bushnell 6500 off the mrod and put the mueller on the mrod. that bushnell has the better optics and it goes down to 2.5x which is nice when hunting.

Believe me I understand. I should be getting a long brown box with a monsoon tommorrow, still trying to figure out how to explain it to my wife.

Way cool Chad!! When you get it, come on over and shoot with me. You'll probably be needing a place to stay for a while until "she" calms down. LOL.

yep, the only reason i didn't buy that Retay Ferrari, is that there is no way to hide a bright red gu from the wife.

If I grabbed another rifle with a straigh forward wood stock, i might get away with it, but not worht the arguement.

Monday the mail man took away a check for a Falcon AND a Talon SS. Some of the money was for two chunks of glass.

Now I’m thinking about that CZ200 that Jim has.

Would someone please come over and shoot me in the head (it‘s not working right)?

I have many guns to choose from and plenty of pellets for all the guns.

well she doesnt know exactly what it costs but she does know i've sold a bunch of my pb's to finance it. so long as it wasn't coming out of my check or check book she's ok. plus she'll be getting an ipad for good measure. bribery always helps.

. if lived in the conus i might swing by.

It won't help. only make it worse.

Glad to hear you got one coming Chad. I'm very excited to read and stare at the pics until I get to see it. Keep us updated bro

aack73 · « **Reply #10 on:** October 05, 2011, 08:52:32 PM »

it aint exactly on the way. jim probably wait for check before shipping. with mail and shipping etc. maybe week or 2. but i'm committed at this point. or at least i should be.

just hope it will shoot as good as ted's videos.

Tpatner412 · « **Reply #11 on:** October 05, 2011, 08:55:29 PM »

Chad you should hope it shoots better LOL.

The Hawke scopes are nice. I've got a Hawke Panorama on my Indy. It's a great scope. Nice and bright. I've ordered a Royale 400 with the power adjuster and it will have a Hawke Eclipse SF 4-16x50 on it. Don't forget to post some pics and a review when you get the new toy.

Thats a fine gun. I've been looking to get one too. Its very expensive but super cool.
If I remember correctly you recently recieved a bunch of N&N pellets. Those will be good for testing the sweet rifle.

will post pics and report. hopefully a good one.

i got a chance to check out Brett's hawke scope on his indy. i was very impressed with scope and gun. i think it was the tactical 1/2 mildot 6-20x. that's what i want. i managed to raise enough $ for the scope too but couldn't bring myself to spend that much at one time. old habit i guess. decided to get the ole lady and kids something too.

but i will get 1 or probably 2. honestly i would like to put that same scope on all my rifles. even the pb's. the couple i have left.

yea i had ulterior motives with those pellets. i sorta put the cart before the horse. got my ldc and pellets already. got a bunch of jsb to try too.

thanks for the pellets by the way. i did inspect them and they looked good. might need a little help identifying a few.

Congratulations Chad!! It's a good thing you went the 6K Nitrogen tank route. I do believe you are going to be getting your tank refilled more often now. I'll try to start a collection for pellets for you once you find out what works best. I have a feeling that the semi auto feature of the Revo won't be lost on you!! Everything will have at least two hits on it now. Again,...congrats on getting a FX.

Brett

Rico14 · « **Reply #17 on:** October 05, 2011, 10:09:54 PM »

Only two hits per critter?? I'm sure he's going to try to cut some of them in half.

jonnnyboy · « **Reply #18 on:** October 06, 2011, 09:29:58 AM »

Chad, Chad, Chad what are you doing brother? You only ordered one? What about your GTA buds? You going to leave us standing out in the cold with nothing to shoot?

Congratulations, you have reached the pinnacle of addiction. LOL You are now selling all you own for just one more and then on top of that, hiding it from those who love you. Sounds like addiction to me!!!

You know us bro, we will want pics from the moment you get the box until you post the first target with group. Make us jealous. We can't wait either!!!

aack73 · « **Reply #19 on:** October 06, 2011, 10:57:34 PM »

she knows i'm selling pb's to but another pellet gun. i just havent got into the details of what and how much. then again i havent said much to any of my other friends as to how much. maybe a little embarrassed. can't hide it from ya'll cause ya'll know exactly what i'm buying.

the addiction coming from selling a half dozen pb's to buy 1 pellet gun. $:-\$
