You need these mounted on the Vette...  :D

Well, it's driving and handling proformance would be that of a D9 Cat. :(
On the other hand, it's offense and defense capabilties would be second to none! ;D

I don't foresee any building projects, though I would like to mount a rail on my IZH 53m.  All Winter it's 5m pistol shooting in the cellar, and I plan on refining the triggers an several of the springers.  RC

Purchase a Baikal IZH-46M and shoot the feces out of it

Is that how they ship em these days??  What's wrong with cosmoline??  I'd think poop in the barrel would affect accuracy!  ;)

I'm hoping to get my big orders from Crosman and Charlie Mellon and transform all the Crosmans I have now.  New barrels, a new 22xx build from mostly spare parts, Tippmann stock for one of my 1377's, new pRod trigger frames on three more of them.  And yeah...an IZH-46M is on my radar.  Maybe a Christmas present?!

Stocked up on paper targets from work, about 200 of e'm, bullseye, grids etc etc.

Have the new 2300KT pistol with LW barrel, 1377, Colt 1911 and the Bronco rifle  and Winchester Lever Action rifle ready for this winter's garage shootin at 10 meters  :-*

Hey BDS, when you say you stocked up on targets..do you mean literally or did you mean you printed out a bunch of targets at work?? 

BDS

Ya, that  :-*

Printed out on a light card-stock we use for brochures, I get it cheap thru our vendor.

Don't know who Noah is, but that is an interesting project.  Sounds like a tutorial in motion? RC

Hmm..the bottom part of my post didn't make it?!?  I was going to say I do the same thing myself!  And in COLOR!!!  But I wanted to ask what kind of paper you use...cuz as I'm sure you know, regular copy paper isn't very good.  It rips! Especially with lower velocity pellets.

Does the stuff you use make decently clean holes?  Who makes it?  I have some Manila folders that I also use, but too thick to print on.

Oh man, your tugging on my heart string. Where do you live and what do you want to build?

Aw, didn't mean to give you heart a tug.  In reality I could splurge and buy parts anytime, but chose to be wise with my money and only buy parts when I know I have the extra spending money.  Rent, groceries, and keeping bills paid always comes first.

But I wanted to build a lefty 2240 based pistol for my dad for father's day and a mirror righty for me.   That way we can shoot together and he can have his for pest control.  So when it comes down to it each part I'd want to buy would be twice the price as the "next project" is really two  identical projects.  Seeing that father's day is about 9 months away this will give me time to build the gun piece by piece and budget accordingly.  I'm definitely going to make a separate post for it.

This forum is the best!

I think it is graded by weight, in this case, 75 to 100 lb weight, just a little less than a manila folder, wadcutters make clean holes and Targetz.com is free for target downloads. Any paper maker has it, Hammermill or many others :-*

I'm going to get my outdoor range (10m or 33ft)  winter ready, that means it will have to become snow and rain proof. Big tent where i sit and a fire pit. Then my 2240 with the stainless steel i'm working on should be done before winter, i have a Baikal IZH 60 and a Baikal IZH 61 coming in pretty soon. So i'll be either modding those or trading them in for maybe 1 pimped american classic or two stock ones?????? Not sure yet, i got a good deal for the two baikals so it's gonna be a win win either way.

Zoneofenders: Are the Baikals new? If so, PM me with your price for the model IZH 60 single shot ok?  :-*
