So what do you want for xmas?

[fightingquaker13]

I think I'm finally getting an RWS model 48 .22 caliber. I'd rather have the model 52 but airgundepot has a refurbished 48. I've been awake too many days to make a decision yet.

Just buy it. You won't regret it. I've had my RWS 34 for almost 20 years and no complaints. Airgun depot is a reputable company. Buying a .22 is the way to go as they hit a lot harder than .177. The .54 is nice, but you're paying for a lot of stuff you'll never notice in a field gun. Just be sure you get an airgun scope as the recoil on a spring piston can trash a nice piece of glass as it goes forwards and backwards.  Have fun, and as always, don't shoot your eye out.

I just called airgun depot and asked about their warranty. For a refurbished gun it's 30 days and on a new RWS it's a lifetime. I'd rather spend twice as much for the new one and have peace of mind.

P.S. It was the model 52 I was really interested in, not the 54. I don't need a recoilless airgun. I think I can handle the kick.    Maybe I'll get a 52 or 48 package with the scope. I don't know.

TAB, I just got back to this thread, I know how easy it is to build a nuke.
Basically all you have to do is drop 1/2 of your critical mass on the other 1/2 and you get your boom.
The only thing that is a challenge to aspiring countries is acquiring the nuclear material, that is why countries like Iran and NK first build a legitimate power plant, then they build the centrifuge cascade to "Enrich" the uranium from spent fuel rods.

The wife asked me the other day what I wanted for Christmas.  When I suggested she could just tie a ribbon on a b*** j** she rolled her eyes and left the room.  Why don't women understand that if you don't want to hear the answer you shouldn't ask the question?









Hopefully there's enough leftover turkey in the corner to make a sandwich.

I have a theory on that. It's not that they don't want AN answer, it's just that they don't want YOUR answer.

You're probably right.  On the other hand, the woman has been married to be for the better part of 30 years.  She should know how I think by now.  I mean, I'm a guy, and guys only have two emotions.  We're either hungry or we're horny.  If you see me without an erection, make me a sandwich.

Here's a picture of JC's dream boat.   But where' the cup holder?




Me.  I'm thinking dreaming big.  As in 500acres of land with a major mountain between me and the neighbors.  A trout stream, an artesian well  and a scenic view for the cabin. 

Look closely at the shiny cylidrical shape just in front of the seat. (It's a bottle) However, it fits a nalgene perfectly for mixing your favorite beverage.   Martini's are best as they get continuously shaken!

I really doubt you'll need the warranty, but I understand. However, you might want to check with RWS. I'm not sure what their policy is. I've bought a lot of used stuff over the years that came with a life time warranty to the original purchaser. When I sent it in for repair, no one ever asked if I'd bought it used.

PS the recoiless bit is for accuracy. Its supposed to reduce muzzle vibration. Almost all serious compeitition rifles come that way.

That's funny right there!
Don't forget door number three - get me a beer.

Want list just got changed...seems someone thinks I need my truck repaired and a new furnace for the house more than I need a new blaster!  D..N, I hate when that happens.

HO, Ho, fricken HO!
