Re: FWB Models 2, C5, C10, C55, & C60 cylinder availability

Hi Stan, I hear you about using up a bunch of lives...and At least you have matured some :-) Despite marrying late in life, by my (first and only) wife's assessment, I'm partially trained, and after 28 years, she doesn't want to start training a new husband from scratch LOL. I try to be good 'cause ...

Re: FWB Models 2, C5, C10, C55, & C60 cylinder availability

Hi Rover, As an engineer, I don't find the rule useless; hence I went and purchased a "new" cylinder in compliance with the rules. Given today's litigious society, I'm certain FWB tested my new old cylinder to make sure it was safe. I just thought I'd share my very positive experience with...

Re: FWB Models 2, C5, C10, C55, & C60 cylinder availability

About 8 years ago, I bought a "new" FWB cylinder from ..... FWB! I think that's about the time the new cylinder rules went into effect, If I recall correctly. Just contact FWB. A couple of emails and about a month later, I had a new CO2 cylinder. Funny thing was, it was actually older than...

Re: Is Electronic Digital Trigger Pull Gauge helpful

In our club, we set all our pistol triggers so that they don't fire with a 520 grams weight (or last least don't fire 4 out of 5 times). In effect, it means we are likely close to what Doug recommends with an actual firing weight of 525 grams. This way, if you travel, with weather/humidity/temperatu...

Hi, I've received several PMs about the excel spreadsheet. Rather than send this out individually, I've attached the Excel spreadsheet to this post for all. The macro is unprotected and the code is pretty well documented, so you can adjust it as you see fit. It's just a brute force implementation of...

Scores for US Coins

Hi, I've always wondered what various coins would score if on a pistol pellet target. So, I finally wrote a little Visual Basic function to do the calculation for me. I've posted the results below. Kinda neat to share with the kids (or parents). Respectfully, Chris /[img] https://drive.google.com/op...
