...until tomorrow, when i finally take possession of my very first AirForce Condor from a buddy. Dang that clock is ticking slower and slower! I'm gonna shoot the blasted thing! Maybe I will, once the Condor has landed.

Anyway, here's a couple pics and maybe you can see why the clock seems to be dragging along.

I just about have the support system in place, consisting of a Shoebox Max, Ninja tanks, and a shop compressor. I'm going Darkside baby!

I can see why you are impatient.

The gun is a beauty, George. You must plan to put on a rest and drool on it. You can't shoot it. Maine hasn't thawed yet has it?

George I'll swap with you your Condor for my AF Edge since you don't plan on shooting long range, besides the .177 pellets are much cheaper to buy in quantity. Unless nobody has told you plan on consuming way more pellets

Seriously congratulations on the new rifle

Thanks. I got a feeling that this gun is going to seriously change the way I shoot. My other guns I shoot for kicks, but this one I will shoot for the challenge and to learn how to be a good marksman. Sure, I'll shoot it for fun, but fun of a different sort. Time to stop splashing around in the shallow end, and swim out to deeper waters.

Thanks. Yeah, it's still winter, but I still have plenty to do in learning this new system. And yeah, I will have to keep a gun cloth handy to wipe off the drool lol.

Yup, a goner for sure. I can see dust already forming on the other guns. Poor, neglected things.

Yeah, I have to keep a tight rein on things. This could get out of hand very easily.

If you rub the drool really fast with a terry cloth it puts a nice protective shine on your gun

.

Congrats and enjoy George

George, for some of us, this "getting out of hand" thing is just what you have listed for your "support system."

Dang enablers cause every body else to try to keep up with the Joneses. Nice gun

Thanks guys. The wait is over. The Condor has landed....more later!

The stock really make AF guns look better; in their original form they really look uncomfortable to shoot. I shot one before and didn't like the ergonomics at all. Enjoy your new toy...

I definitely agree with you. It looked clumsy at best. I really like this stock.
