Firing cycle so benign, quick but not harsh and trigger like breaking a fine glass thread. Beautiful. I need to keep shooting these things for many years to come.
    Let's hope you eventually can Tone, feel for you mate.

    Hi Jo,

    Welcome to the forum.

    And a very warm welcome to the little Boinger Bash corner.

    As Pete says, you're more than welcome and it'll be a pleasure to welcome you into the fold. The main thing is to observe all safety awareness considerations. Come and have fun. Chat, shoot, learn, return. Don't be afraid to ask away for any tips and advice.

    You're only saying that to cover yourself as the "Bucket" has been redesigned.
