Re: Weekend Plinking with the Trinity
kesh, thanks for the vids. It looks so fun that I'm ready to hop in the car and drop in on you!
The eggs are a good idea, too, but the cell phone -- I guess it rang once too often.
Speaking of cases, you know that the old gangster movies like to show the goons packing in a violin case. I have looked for a suitable musical instrument case in pawn shops and junk shops, but with no luck. Hand guns can go into all sorts of things, but long guns are a problem.

Re: Weekend Plinking with the Trinity
kesh, that is a great link, thanks! I need to do some measuring. I had never thought of a guitar case, which should be widely available and could be used with a longer gun!
Excellent, thanks again! Great find!
I should hasten to add that this site has some nice information on the TT-33 (sometimes called the "Star" for the marking on the side), the CZ-52, and the CZ50/70. Also, there are some write-ups on Mosin Nagant, AK-47, and SKS rifles -- he has a nice little site here!

No hardrives yet. [emoji13] One was an HTC diamond phone which is now a souvenir of a day well spent.

Cotton buds dipped in bright food colouring. Piece of iron in front of buds to act as a shield with the heads peeping out about 1/2 inch (a piece of old cycle tube acts as a band to hold the buds).kesh1982 wrote:ngrewal wrote:Nice going guys was one of them a Hard drive?

Enjoy hitting them with my RWS at 15 mtrs. Ooooooohhh.......the satisfaction !!!!

Re: Weekend Plinking with the Trinity
Cool! I still like the metal one with the holes, though! I'd like one of those.

A little spendy though. It wiill fit a 3' 6" length long arm.

Yup the silhouette is huge fun cause the target holes are about 3/4 of an inch and shooting them at long ranges is fun. It does need some more fine tuning though, like spring on the back to help auto reset every timetimmy wrote:Cool! I still like the metal one with the holes, though! I'd like one of those.

Kshitij, Kesh, with that guitar case you need to wear white suits and fedoras and speak like Al Capone in a Sicilian / Italian accent! Like Robert de Niro in "The Untouchables" courtroom scene.
Cheers!
