I guess we'll find out, just ordered 2.
If they do I'll grab 2 more. That will give me a total of 6.
60 shots between fills and reloading mags works for me.

Bill, I'm sorry you are having to risk your money to find out the answer but I can understand why you gave up on getting an answer from the GTA membership after 8 minutes had elapsed.

Betty Lou called to tell me the mags came in from PA along with 2 16 oz. shampoo bottles of AV compressor oil.
I'll report back how they work.

Oil dose not work all that great as shampoo.

Confirmed..
The AV Avenger .177 mags do work in the Gauntlet.
Not to loose, not too tight. They snap in and don't slop around at all. I shot a full mag and they cycled perfectly.
I'll most likely order 2 more at $12.99 each. That will give me enough mags for a full fill on the air tank. 60 shots.

It appears to me that I kinda left this thread hanging... I have a real problem with staying focused these days. I can't blame it on life getting in the way anymore because I'm retired now and don't really have a life to get in the way.
So without further delays, let's pick it up where we left off...

First off, the slow leak has been confirmed... I pulled it out of the case this morning and the gauge was way down, not empty but way down. Mind you, I haven't shot this gun since I began this thread so I'm not sure how long it took to leak.
I took the gun to thee Red Shed this morning and topped it off with the Vevor compressor. Then I came back in for some breakfast and let it warm up outside a bit.
I did fill the 6 mags with H&N 10.65 Match pellets before I came in. I need to swap the internet connection from the bar to the Red Shed and grab the chrono out of the bar.
We'll get to that after I eat.
Stay tuned... today we'll be running the Gauntlet....

Oh yeah...
6 Mags easy. May be even more.
And at 35 yds they have no problem flipping up the re settable targets.. and flip them back down as well.
Very respectable accuracy out of this gun. I wouldn't want to carry it around all day but I feel bad for any critter than wanders into my path from the bench.

Just a quick check to make sure the PChrono Dig was seen by the tablet via blue tooth and the software was recording shots.
The gauge was down to 2k and I have 7 shots left in the mag. It's still pretty chilly out there... maybe 50.
I would call this respectable.
