WAITING !!

This waiting is a killer !

Went down to my shop this evening and went to digging around in my parts
drawer and found a 2250 tube that I had once made a PCP shooter out of, well it now sports a NEW PROD valve and a .177 cal. barrel! It looks like it had been sent for and got LOST on the way back !!

I had my son (JOHN) to sand blast it a few weeks back , so its just bare medal . The .177 barrel had been used as a tool to drive a stuck valve out of an old 1377 phase I that I had traded for that was one big RUST BUCKET!! The muzzle was beat almost closed , well I cut it off just a little and recrowned it the breech end just need a little cleaning up. Got it all put together and shot it a few time , NO leaks , shoots hard too ! Got to find me a pistol scope and a good paint job and then I'll post a few pics.! Thinking about I'll try to post some of pics. Friday ! Goin to try to get John to put a cerakote paint job in black on it if he's not to far behind on his other work. He tells me I'm not a paying customer and I have to wait till he as a slack time!

He's doing one now for me that I don't have a clue what it's goin to look like! So when its done we'll know at the same time .

Well all that certainly sounds interesting. Keep us updated and we are waiting with bated breath to see what it actually looks like.
