    shot my buddy's 6mm Dasher for the last time to show the new owner it shoots better than the group he printed
    shot a factory 700 in .223 with a 1:9 barrel that shot pretty tight.
    gave a hard pass on the .308 that had the bolt handle on the wrong side
    picked up and shot the new to me M77/22VMBZ i mentioned earlier

    took it out of the stock to work on the trigger (4#10oz) replaced the trigger spring and got it to 3.5#
    I need to stay in it a little better or it don't like this ammo

    Also got to mess around with the Flamethrower last night - We weren't any more accurate even with a scope on it. :)

    Thanks @J pace the more I look into it that is what I am finding...I might have to take up pigeon shooting :D
    I often get notches backwards on chokes. I wonder why the tight barrel is the bottom one. The other 20ga I have is M over IC...front trigger pulls the bottom barrel and back pulls the top.

    Might have to ream those chokes

    Got a proper WWSD rifle started! Currently sitting at 5.5 lbs with an empty mag. BA 14.7 pencil and welded A2, Colt A2 upper and Colt semi auto BCG (not M16 profile to safe those sweet OZs). Sweet B5 drop-ins.

    I've had airsoft guns that felt more like a real gun than this lol

    Dude that is so cool!!! Do those throwers actually work?? What kind if range do you think you were getting?
    Yes it works.
    Not like the videos from WWII (Im a little saddened by that)
    I can get about 20 ish feet - maybe more. (My 3 year old absolutely loves it)
    This weekend I had my first issue. I had never charged it and the battery was dead - I only partially charged it so I could get it up and working before my buddy had to leave. The issue is that the battery only lasted me about 6 tanks worth of flame (or about 2 months of storage)
    It charged up fine, so it's not a problem, I just wanted it to work forever. lol

    Played with that Beretta S56E a little...heads up...don't pull the triggers with the barrel off to relieve the tension on the firing pin springs...puppy is kind hard to recock.

    Best I can tell from info posted here and on the web this gun was choked F/IM. The chokes appear to have been reamed. I didn't measure the bore but the restriction in the bottom barrel is .603 or IC the top barrel is closer to IM than to M...close to .020 difference than .010. Got the nasty sticky Limbersaver pad off to get a grind to fit Kick Eez for it. The stock was cut to put this thicker pad on...bummer.

    Bet it shoots good

    I bought a Taurus TX22 compact Saturday. I finally dug out this Riton MPRD-2 that I had in the parts bin and mounted it up. It looks good, I hope to test it out this weekend.
