So what did you Order / Receive today ? (to feed the "Beast" that lives within)

[UlteriorModem]

I'll submit for the "Smallest Purchase"...
A 6-32 set screw for ¢ .26
 Yes, I drove to town at 8:30 last night for a single set screw to finish assembly of my 2060 project.
 Spent more is gas for the 8 mile round trip. 

My local Ace knows me quite well. After spending 15 minutes in the fastener section, come up to the counter "2 @ $0.45 please"

A set of Burris signature Zee rings and some offset inserts.
I showed these to the NUAH targets I printed out, and explained they need to resign themselves to loosing their center ring.

Just had a visit from the brown truck company, the tungsten disulphide powder I ordered just came in! Two 1-lb bags of 0.6 microns grey powder, not 3 microns as I thought. This is so fine as a powder it feels like a paste in the bag. I should be good for life with that supply

What is that for?

Nothing quite as exotic for me! I received via usps my small parts order from Crossman. I cant say enough for those folks over there. They take, and ship an order quickly, and the prices are quite reasonable. I cant think of any other company that will deal direct, small parts, to the end consumer The only caveat is to have the parts numbers handy and make sure they are correct

I got 2 piston seals for the NP, Breech seals and the little spacers they use to shim the breech seal. My breech seal(s) aren't leaking but I have these when they do start to leak

This can be used in place of molybdenum disulphide, as in ''moly paste'', for lubricating metal-to-metal contact surfaces. It's of the same chemical family, but supposed to be a little better, and about the same price as moly  .

With this powder, you can either make a paste with grease, oil or even isopropyl alcool, or ''burnish-in'' the metal surface.

So, it's like a graphite?

Better than graphite. It also has some anti-rust properties, although it's not a total rust protection.

If it is as bad as Moly Paste, look out that stuff is MESSY!

Yeah, I have a bad experience with moly paste, I scrapped a very nice shirt because of it  . I now make sure to very carefully wipe clean the airguns I use moly on  .

My new Caldwell G2 came in from eBay today. With case. Also, some pony express tokens, Daisy Dollars from Daisy Museum Gift shop. NOS tokens they have left from the 70's & 80's. Sellers saying 50's are in error.

Hill 20 hammer with a peek striker.

Leonard, please let us know how that chrony works out for you. I am seriously thinking about getting one!

In the meantime my box full of fun arrived today!

I was so excited to try it out I propped up the pellet trap in the corner of the shed and shot about a dozen or so rounds into it. Only then did I realize that target was the near 'perfect' score (198 out of 200) for the 30 yard bench event I had planned to post   oops 

[avator]

Definitely airgun related.... and everything else too.

[UlteriorModem]

Just spoke to Mike M. at Flying Dragon.
 Explained I was ordering an XS-12 for My Grand Daughter as an award for her performance at school. I told him she is only 12, and petite at that. She has had 2 lower end guns and ready to move up.
 Asked for the $30 tune and he said PERFECT.
He even let me know he has many to choose from, and seeing what it was for, he offered to pick through a few and get her something pretty in the wood figuring.

 Also reminded him to visit GTA when he gets a chance.
