If any of you guys read my other post http://www.automags.org/forums/showthread.php?threadid=106776 about coming home to get my RT after being out of the sport and forgetting about my gear completely... I just went through my equipment... I only thought I had one but I came across another in the bottom of an RT box, packed in foam. What a surprise!
My buddy came over who just got the angel to show me it and check out my guns. He had like 1500psi of air in his tank. We put some air through my RTs and they were both leaking so I just said that I would bring them to a shop and have them fix em for me so we just went outside to shoot his "new" angel. When we came back in, we took the RTs apart and changed some o-rings and oiled some stuff up. There wasnt enough air in his tank to pressurize the guns but he thinks that they are probably good to go. I will know tomorrow when we meet back up. I hope they are working fine.. this whole time I thought they were broken and all they need was a good tune up. I guess I just got frustrated and lazy. Wish me luck, I hope they work tomorrow. If not, I am just going to let a shop look at them.
It was pretty cool opening up all my gear again, it was like Christmas. I think I got the bug again. I kinda want to keep one of them, but I dont know if i need an RT. I could use the money for some more parts on my 600RR.
Here's a pic of them. Ones a highrise and the other is a right powerfeed. I have a benchmark cradle, kapp df, and a boomstick between the two. Some of my other equipment is a busted Rainmaker, (the black ice reg is probably worth more than the whole gun,) a really old spyder that is missing a lot of parts, and my first gun... a BE Tigershark. OH Yeah! Ive got a basically new JT Ice Mask and Jacko pack too. All this money just sitting around. I can get back into the sport without spending a penny, I think I might just do that.
