So many reasons to be cheerful on this fine day, my Boingerpeeps!

Firstly, it's the first of a month, so the very best of luck to all.

And, it's not the first of just any month, but......one month from now, it's the main Boinger Bash Day! Oh yes, indeed!

We get the Spring equinox this month, with the ever-lengthening days, and the clockx will also be going forward.

But, the best thing is that, for many of you lucky peeps who can arrive before the Saturday, WE ARE NOW INTO BOINGER BASH MONTH!!

Here it comes, folks.......





BOING!!


31 to go (for the Saturday peeps).

Brilliant
Made me smile.

Reading the last few posts, I'd stress that anyone attending the forthcoming Spring Do who are seriously considering buying a springer (or scope) new or used, should wait until that event !
They'll be a large and varied selection of spring driven air rifles to view and if the owners give permission (they usually do) they can be shot.
All this will obviously be really useful in choosing a new gun and scope !

Well tis a bit late for me John!! I bought the lot only because I wanted to have it at the bash!! Lol
Not really.. I've been doing much Rhysearch!!!! Lol and have had quite a change around.. I've yet to decide if I'm going to keep the Docter 6x42 by the way.. it's a fab scope & it paralaxed down very well
I'm just not sure Its suitable on my R10 so I bought a vortex 3-9 just in case!
I feel like the Docter would go lovely on a .22 rammer/Springer.. somthing a bit older. But I only have 1 rammer & I'm not sure I can justify holding on to it just incase I get another..

I just got a new scope to go atop the HW98!

Did a swap for one of my watches with a good mate from Bolton

Prostaff

Again


Looking forward to it!!

To give you "a direction" Rhys, I once began with a NS Diamond 6x42 on an R7, I then changed it to a Leupold 6x42 finally ending with a Schmidt 6x42 !

Tease.

Someone did ask earlier in the thread as to when might be the best time to start the "For Sale" thread.


Do we think it's the right time now, chaps, with a month (or less) to go?

Good man and great to see you back in Boingtastically enthusiastic boingerbumpski mode!

[TonyL]

Glad it had the effect, Rhys.

As we get ever closer, I'm getting more and more giddy about meeting up with your good self again and all the other Bash regulars and newbies.

And I daren't open the lid on Little Zeb's box! There have been some monumental noises emanating from his padded little sanctuary! I fear that, if I open the box indoors we'll be seeing a huge hole in the ceiling. Open it outdoors and he'll be into orbit!

I think I may drill a hole in the side and keep squirting some moly grease in there to satiate him a little before risking opening it.


P.S. - "Rhysearch". Love it!

Bank payment sent!! (Got the missus to do it- Too Teknikal for me!! )


John

And payment recieved John --- looking forward to seeing you again.

I've also recieved a second payment from Tinbum, so the list now stands at 30.

Really looking forward to the April bash. By then I am hoping to be sporting a nice new 22mm shirtless piston internals inside my TX, some new 3d printed baffles inside the end of one of my 97s - probably the V glide and I also want to get a video done of the CD trigger unit modification so that it has a 'window' so you can see the sear engagement. The video camera will be hot between now and the bash !!

As I said earlier, Tone.

With just a month to go, now would be a good time to start a Boinger Bash sales thread.

I've already got three more guns being delivered to the Bash so I hope there's nothing else for sale to tempt me.


All the best Mick



PS :- don't tell Shirl about the three new guns.

Excellent and two BOINGS for John and Nick!,

Thirty is good with a month to go, methinks, and I'm very confident that it'll grow with vigour now we're getting closer. Plenty of seasoned Bash regulars not on the list as yet who are sure to come. And, I reckon, a few more newbies will be jumping in, too.

Me reckons you and Shirl will be hosting at least 50.

BOING!!

Another three?

Go on, do tell; Shirl won't know!

And we'll be looking forward to sampling and viewing your handiwork, Neil.
