Ah.. That angle makes it a bit more obvious!! Excellent idea (As long as you don't hunt with the tank on LOL).

The first image makes it look like the "microline" links back on to the gun LOL.

From a bench or in a



large enough 'tree' stand the tank can be connected.

One more Q:
Are you running on CO2 or O2 (Air)???

Have an air compressor with a dessicant pack that gives me 4200psi and then the 'pressure safety valve' opens and drops pressure back down to 3800psi to avoid any high pressure 'accidents' that could occur at the compressors 6000psi rating . . .

Just a Minuit, I've just spotted something else in your pic!!
What Is that Coke bottle doing on the front of your scope???
(Is it a DIY objective lens shade?)

Stevie Thumb Up!

NoNoNo It was misting rain in Corbin, Ky for that weekend shoot . . . the bottle just helped to keep water off of the lens until the wind shifted. Then I would dry off the lens and take another dozen shots or so until the wind shifted again . . . Going Nuts

From the time that there were 3 and a half users on this forum. Mr. Green

I've come so far that I've come to love almost all airguns with the exception of, honestly, few. Wink

Edit: This may come across as a bit of an ego trip, but since the forum has grown I kind of wonder what other peoples tastes are. Razz

I like my rifles to have a natural curve to them. I have a 30.06 that has a monte carlo handmade stock, and I end up comparing to it. It is a truly beautiful rifle in my eyes, and if I ever find my god$%^&^ F^%$(*ing piece of s&^( camera I will grace the web with it's form and beauty.

muzzle breaks on springers
and underlever stutzens,
Gold plated triggers and anything wooden.
Scopes that are mounted on black one piece rings,
These are a few of my favorite things... WooHoo!

First and foremost, I like the look of CARBINES-wood-metal-plastic--as long as the rifle is short and lightweight...I do currently own/or have have owned Crosman StormXt, TF6, Crosman 2260, Discovery, Crosman NPSS, TalonSS, Walther 1250 Dominator, AA S400, AA S410, a 2250B and a AS2250...From that assortment I guess really I just like 'em all Shocked Shocked Shocked

I love the look and functionality of the Olympic grade AG's; the Steyrs, ANSCHÜTZ, Feinwerkbau....

At my age they're better looking than the airbrushed Playboy centerfolds... Mr. Green

Next spring, as a 60th birthday present to myself, I will own one of them.... I hope.

Age is just a matter of money. The more you spend the younger she gets!

This is going to sound like some kind of zen nonsense, but I listen to the gun. I own several different styles, and each project gave me a "feel" of how it should go.

I do the same thing Slavia. My 2400 didn't feel "right" so I traded parts around between my 2240,2300, and 2400. I ende up with something that fits me now, and it made a difference now. My 2240 is a snap-shot pistol, my 2300 is a careful aim match type pistol, and my 2400 is as close to a sniper's rifle as I can get without having real gunpowder.

Of course this bites me in the a$$ too. My storm can't decide what it wants to be. She's worn camo, dark walnut, cherry, cocobolo, and right now in a fully sanded out natural triple thick krylon glaze. THe stock is beautiful so far but we have to wait till it's dry and wait and see.
