After 3 days of shooting, I got a blister on my thumb from the barrel. Is this called a cock burn? Sorry I couldn't help myself as it seems you guys have a sense of humor. _________________ I couldn't figure out why the ball was getting bigger, then it hit me.   Posted: Sun May 02, 2010 4:17 pm fritz Silver Status Member Joined: 25 Nov 2008 Posts: 2442 Location: New Jersey- outside of Philadelphia Why do you think Slavia uses KY on his airguns? Real men use Hoppes #9 _________________ "I never set out to be wierd, it was always everyone else who called me it" -Frank Zappa Speed is impressive, accuracy is deadly.
