    YAY!

    So happy for you matey.

    Lovely, lovely gun and like the boys have said, there's nothing quite like the feeling (and that lovely aroma) of a brand new gun.

    Have you managed to have a go with it yet?

    Do we have any roofers amongst the brethren?
    Better to admit you walked through the wrong door than spend your life in the wrong room

    BOING!
    You're definitely slipping Tone. The XS79, whilst not a springer provided CO2 powered fun, as will tomorrow's offering from the same stable. Then, the day after, well.

    Aha, thanks for posting that out, Mark.

    But, although I don't class myself as an "airgun snob" (I have a few cheapies, Crosmans, Gamo Vipermax, Supersport etc) I don't do our oriental offerings.

    And, yes, two days' time.....party time!

    Cheers guys, I have just set the beast up, zeroed it and had a good testing session up the garden with it. Unbelievable accuracy and pretty fab straight out the box. A very minor twang but before any mods I'm going to get a good tin or two of pellets through it to bed everything in and let it settle. Awesome gun. On another note in my enthusiastic efforts to start off on the right foot with It I eagerly got the ballistol out of the cupboard to wipe it down before putting it away. Unfortunately my size 9 unwittingly came into contact with the open bottle and I didn't notice until the entire contents had soaked through the carpet. Anyone know how to remove ballistol from carpet

    I just knew you'd love it, Mike.

    Excellent stuff.

    Sorry to hear about your spillage, though.

    No worries Tone. Standing on a big wad of kitchen towel on the oil seemed to draw it out pretty well and its and old carpet anyway. My better half found it quite amusing

    Could have been the old Diana 79 as well, Marky.
