Mate! Those are SWEET!!
:rock:

Keep them original. Modding will lower the value.

Here's the other new Legends air gun. The all metal PO8. I went ahead and bought replacement wood grips as this version can use them whereas the earlier plastic Legends PO8 needed a grip to come off easily to change the CO2 cartridge.

I just got the grips reshaped so that they fit but they need more work before I'll truly like them. Here are both Legends guns next to my 1916 DWM.

The all metal one has a working toggle.

And the plastic one.

Well I finished shaping the new grips and I used some Danish oil on them but I'd like to get them darker still. However they look much better fitting well and showing some wear.

Got some work to do to get the 9 grips fitted.

That's pretty sweet and made by Colt too! This is a renaissance for BB guns. Airsoft has had a niche for replica BB guns for quite awhile which was only marred by the ban. I've got one pre-ban green gas Japanese replica of a SW .38 Police Special that is very realistic down to the SW logos. This one looks very promising.

I have to say I love air guns and have a fairly large collection of older, and newer Daisy's, as well as a few more powerful types. For me they have all the fun of firearms with almost none of the hassle. Build a BB trap and you can shoot all you want in your basement, or whatever.

Just added a 3 x 12 SWAT scope to the NP2 and moved the 3 x 9 Center Point to the Walther Talon Magnum.
:D

Added a QB57 to the collection.

Think I showed this one in another thread. My first 'adult' pea shooter. Using GAMO 4.5mm Red Fire polymer tip pellets it is deadly accurate for a rifle under $80.00. Went into overkill mode and replaced the stock scope with a Crosman CP 4 x 16 40mm second focal plane Mil-Dot. Zeroed in at 25 yards and 57 confirmed kills since last fall when Operation Tree Rat first began.

Went to take pictures of the B5-1 AK Side folder that came in today but the batteries are dead in the camera.
:doh:

Here's a stand in image for now.

Sorry to hear it. It's always sad when an icon passes, even if he's only known to a small, specialized circle. I've had a couple of those in the last few years.

Yea. Gene was to GTA what Neal is to Subsim.
The 2 places I feel at home at are GTA and Subsim.
(Well Subsim is always first but you know what I mean)

I tested out my Tippmann TiPX. Pretty cool, but the CO2 cartridge doesn't last very long.

Kind of like the M712 I have. I get 2 magazines with 18 BB's on one CO2 cart! It is a blow back design though so you get a loud sound and some realistic kick.
:D
