Hiya Troy  :wave:

Welcome to the collective :borg:

Nova Scotia! Love visiting Nova Scotia... used to take the Scotia Prince out of Maine to go up there. Haven't been since that service stopped, but I plan to take the Cat there... perhaps next fall.

Thanks a Bunch Guys! Sorry I'm just getting back in,But our daughter and my 21 month old grand daughters home until this Friday and I've had my hands full with her,lol.I had some reading time last night,(and I loved this Forum right fro the start),so I decided to get in on all the fun. This is by Far,,the Best Machine Shop Hobby site on the Net I've seen so far,so I'm really Pleased to be a member.

Looking forward to many Happy years here as my Addiction to Machining has just begun after a long vacation from my welding trade.I'm retired now and have taken up with my Mini lathe,and it's just too much fun! I love air gunning as well and making Mods for my Condor,(and My 7X12 Sieg C2 300) is just the beginning as I've already started looking at my next purchase,(the Mini Mill). Got to Love an Awesome forum as this, IMHO.

Thanks Again,

Troy  :nrocks:

My 2 favorites is the Sumatra 2500 500cc .25 caliber @ 84 fpe and the Airforce Condor .25 cal 80 fpe.I also have my Diana 350 magnum in .22 cal,Diana 34 panther .2 cal and the Remington Nitro Piston ShortStroke in .22 cal as well.

I'm really loving the Condor and Sumatra as they are my long range Pesters,and the 350,34 and NPSS handles the 15 to 25 yard pests. It's kind of sad that my powder burners just aren't that much fun,But when you can knock a Bandit down at 50 yards with a Condor or Sumatra,,well it doesn't get anymore Fun than that,lol.
Now with my New lathe running,(and the mods are also being done to her to Better her),the Mods are never ending he he.
Ya don't realize how much fun they are until ya shoot these AG's of today as they are just Brutal ranging anywhere from 20 to 86 fpe.

Thanks again guys,well it's back to the Granddaughter for one more day,then back to the lathe and the Madmodders.
